Hi all,

Question for anyone who might know or has done it, a friend of mine is stripping out an R33 GTR and I've got dibs on the rear swaybar, rear strutbrace, and the underbody bracing they have (goes from the cradle to the middle of the car?) and I'm curious to see if they'll bolt up to my R33 GTS-t for a quick upgrade. Eventually I'll be going to Whiteline/similar gear but in the meantime if it fits, I'll use it. So if anyone has any advice regarding it all fitting, that'd be great :) I'm sure the rear strut brace will fit but I'm not 100% on the other bits!

i have a GTR strut brace in mine

other than that i dont know

from what i have heard the strut brace won't fit. because of the plenum design but guess if Pierre has got it on his car it must fit. pretty sure everything else should fit fine

The front strut wont fit like krishy was saying because of the plenum and the rear strut bar fits so I guess thats what Pierre has only the back one and not the front

Hey guys, i have an R33 Gts-t thats fairly modified, i was wondering if an R33 GTR front strut brace would fit my Gts-t as i have a Greddy plenum fitted to mine. The GTR ones look more ridgid and sit lower across the engine so i was hoping someone could let me know if they fit up. I looked into it awhile ago but im not sure, googled it and couldn't find any useful info so i made an account here. Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi mate, a gtr strut brace will fit up and add some rigidity to the front end. Welcome to the forum

As mentioned above, I don't think the GTR strut brace will fit because of the plenum design. GTST sits slightly higher than the GTR. Personally I would go with an aftermarket option which is better suited to a GTST and most of the stuff on the market these days are of a pretty decent quality too.

PS welcome to the forums

    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.
