hey guys, just after a bit of info on wich route to go down :)

i picked up a r33 s2 gts-t about a month ago and im so happy i ditched the vy clubby and got this!

however i want moooore haha, (as we all do).

currently the car has as follows -

  • 3" TRUST cat-back exhaust
  • Just Jap Racing split dump/front pipe
  • Just Jap Racing high-flow catalytic converter
  • 17" Enkei RP-01 (8.0" front, 9.0" back) lightweight racing wheels
  • Manual boost controller (Set to ~10psi)
  • Steel Mesh Pod Filter
  • 600x300x75mm Bar & Plate Aluminium Front Mount Intercooler
  • KYB SR Special Coilover Shocks
  • APEXI Super AFC (Air Fuel Controller) Neo Piggyback ECU
    Dyno tuned to 190rw/kW by Hyperdrive Malaga
  • On the Autoworx dyno at a Skylines Australia dyno day it made 240 rw/hp
  • Front & rear strut braces
  • Dark Window Tint
  • HICAS Lock Bar

(although i have upped the boost to 12psi) and i have bought a apexi avc-r and hoping to get it installed shortly.

I am after opinions on where i should go from here.

highflow turbo? or pickup a garret? ive read some good things about the gtx3071r?

for either of those setups (or something else you guys recomend), what other equip would i need, and what sort of pricing would i be looking at?

i understand a highflow goes for around $800 and the gtx for about 1.5k?

any input and thoughts much appreciated.

      From my youth: GTi-R clutch change is a massive pain. The gearboxes are fragile? But the car is super cool and I want one 😢

      Driveline vibration is resolved. I ended up loosening all my engine mount and trans mount bolts, giving it a good shake then retightening everything and it's gone... Let's just say I was surprised that fixed it.  I've been happily driving it around again but unfortunately put zero time into my direct port/constant pressure WMI setup. I'm on vacation next week, so I'll try and finalize it then.  On a different note, I spent all week fuel/ignition mapping 2x 216L V16 engines. Turbo's were burning glycol and we swapped them out for larger units. We also had planned emissions testing on site, so I figured I'd be there the same week to use their instrumentation and massage any emissions issues out if needed. This was a first for me. Fuel management is similar in certain ways to automotive (i.e air density as load variable) but very different in others. It's all PLC based and AFR's are controlled by air and not fuel. They use a control valve between the turbo and air manifold to control pressure which in turn controls AFR's. Due to this, target AFR tables supplied by the OEM are in pressures and not mass which really through me off. They use air pressure vs fuel pressure tables. I also relied on an O2 concentration sensor the emissions team had in the exhaust. Ignition timing was also all over the place and we were losing a fair bit of power. They're now happily sitting at 16-40BTDC depending on load. We were making about 1600kw at 900rpm at 90% load. Engines were running a lot smoother as well.

      Oil pan for RB25DET NEO Stagea "version"

      By Duncan · Posted

      meh, it was a good video, clear about the issue and how he dealt with it. A bit heavy on the RTV and very brave to put an RB in anything without rebuilding it first, but otherwise I thought it was good Dose, I'm not sure that having the pickup forward is a big issue; yes of course the oil could shift under brakes but the sump should never be empty enough for that to be a problem (unless you also have a higher volume oil pump, and that oil can't return from the head to the sump quickly enough)
