gtst = 3 grand for insurance, service atleast every 5,000 km's

gts = 1500 maybe for insurance and service every 10,000 )although i do mine every 5)

my gts on long trips gets 500+ km's per tank (about 520) a GTST would get no where near as much, also when driving it around own etc the GTST will guzzle the fuel :)

i have a 1993 r32 gts with a rb20det conversion. i bought it this way so i dunno whats been done. power seems sweet up until 5000rpm, where it seems to hit some flat spots in power from there onwards. Could this be possibly due to the fact that the ecu is still from the non-turbo engine, or maybe coz he hasnt upgraded the fuel pump? mods on it are fmic, 3 inch turbo back exhaust, brass button clutch. there is no bov, and currently is running 11psi. any ideas?

cheers

This thread is kinda old, but i'll post up anyway. Incase anyone wants to know in the future?

Blew up my rb20det (big end bearing) and have just dropped an rb20de motor in.

High mount manifold

rb25 series 2 turbo

External wastegate

safc 2

sard fuel pressure regulator

walbro fuel pump

front mount

3" exaust turbo back

Boost controller

It goes onto the dyno on thursday (sunday at the moment), and i ain't going to be shy about the amount of boost it runs. I want as much power as the standard rb20det injectors can handle... (hopfully around 300hp atw)

Not sure how long the motor will last, but, gotta find out 1 way or another as noone seems to post up any results :(

Regards,

Chris.

hey i jus picked up a r33 gts25 off the forums , possible looking to turbo it...

i also have a s15 fronted 180sx, and its running a rb25det...

so i was gonna rip the turbo setup off it, t70, 38mm ext gate, hi rise manifold... take the standard injectors out of th det and the ecu out of it.. does this sound like it would run ok if i put it on??

i just stripped down a rb25de outa a r33 and it does have all the oil and water fittings on the side of the block. there just blanked off with bolts. so you can turbo then. youll just need everything off a rb25det turbo

Hi all have a R33 GTS RB25DE and want to turbo it but i live in the uk and all the people over here say it can't be done with out change the pistons and lowering compression , after reading this it can be done , if any one has any info please send me a message many thanks Shawn :P

    • Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...
    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
