Hi guys im building my 33 GTR atm, im putting in a Brain crower 2.82 stroker kit in with 87mm bore, ive got Garrett GT2860-5's on the car atm. Its getting the works done to it,

Head ported

Valve springs

Poncams 260 degree

HKS adjustable cam gears

Block bored

Stroker kit

Spitfire coil packs

700cc injectors

044 external pump

Power FC

Z32 AFM's

HKS type R intercooler kit

Apexi intake

3.5inch mines exhaust, Front pipes and tomei dumps with the -5 turbo's.

Pretty much everything engine wise, i might have missed a few things.

My tuner said the -5's wil max out at 350awkw on pump fuel but i want more but dont know if i should take the risk and get the GT2871r -10's because ive read alot about how laggy they are.

The -10's will make 400awkw but at what cost? Will i loose all response and only have a little squirt at the end of the rev range??? Ive herd that with the stroker kit they are much better.

Its a street car but i like to go fast in a straight line, in my tuners opinion with my setup go with the -10's. I would love anyone's opinion on if i should go with the -10's on a 2.8 stroker?

    • 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).
