Nah ah. GTR's are twins. Period. Its all about looking "stock" *ah hem*.... for when the super doods in their crazy SS's pull you over and say 'pop your bonnet son" :whistling: .

You sound like my tuner.... He calls twins "Thomas the tank engines" becasue they choof! Its all about no no no to singles and yes yes yes to twins haha

Sounds like a smart man lol

The thing with the V cam (as much as I would LOVE to have it on my car....as would all of us) is with the big one for turbo's like T04Z's, GT RS's is that you need valve relief pistons. I dont have that and I am not pulling down a engine to fit them! Its interesting that the -5's hold boost longer then the 2530's.

Your car made 440rwkw off the top of my head? That enough to scare most people :)

Yeah it was finally tuned to send to Oz at just over 600 PS (440kw) with a 8 second hit of an extra .2 Bar on the scramble boost.

Got to get it on the road first then look at E85 as got a petrol station that stocks it here thats about 500 metres away.

I still have a spare RRR block that you could build a new engine

Thats awsome. Lets see what it makes on E85!

A few little questions while im thinking of them.

Are you still using the factory CAS or did HKS use some sort of crank trigger unit? I am getting CAS noise above 6000 RPM or so.

Are you still using the factory airbox? I can't remember.

As for the block.... I already have one in my car.... It would be greedy to have 2 :thumbsup: haha.

Off the top of my head I'm pretty sure they used the factory CAS although they basically rewired the entire ignition system and ran 3 separate earth leads to ground points throughout the car.

Factory airbox.... Nope its got pods and all HKS piping

What do you guys think of the Midori front pipes?

I'm getting the Midori dumps which these match up to, then through to 90mm, but no flex join which I am a little worried about.

There doesn't seem to be anything else on the market to the same specs.

I was thinking about the midori fronts.... but if your going to have a 4 inch exhaust you might be better off with a set from racepace (IE Tangomatt's car, page 3)

Ash. Do you know if they would make up a set and sell them by themselves. From what Steve has told me they do business a little different to most places. I couldnt even find a phone number!

yeah they are good, but considering their price I would get the HKS ones. they are beautiful, have a flex joint, merge to single 90mm pipe and are twin 70mm (or more, can check this weekend if you like).

the HKS ones are about the same price.

That would be great if you have them handy thanks Richard. I can't seem to find details on the HKS ones online that merge to 90mm - nobody lists the specs.

Obviously with the Midori dumps at 76.3mm / 3" I am trying to get them to match without reducing.

I believe these are the ones your talking about:

HKS P/N: 1418-RN005

http://www.nengun.com/hks/extension-kit-gtr

Yeah strange how noone lists the dimensions??

Nah they are the HKS dumps, it's the HKS front pipes that I am trying to confirm specs on - same deal nobody lists it.

Yeah I knew I had seen that somewhere - was just hoping that BB was referring to a different version as he mentioned there being 2 back in a previous post.

Sorry for the thread hijack guys, it is kinda related anyway - determining the biggest off the shelf front half exhaust.

    • You know how your car rolled through a fence in your last jacking escapade? Scissor jacks increase the likely hood of that sort of thing happening immensely!
    • http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.
    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
