hi putting up my 32 as ive just finished building it

i got it with a turbo 25 in it off a so called "mate"

then when i did a compression test found out it had a piston with 70psi compression so the game began

decided to go a little different direction than most

also have it for sale

Engine:

RB25DE series 2 with 120000ks

Exhaust:

extractors to high flow 3inch cat to straight thru 3 inch wink.gif

painted white with rainbow flec

MICROTECH ltx12 stand alone ecu with hand controller

greddy style front facing plenum

80mm throttle body with s14 throttle cable to suit

turbo injectors

DRIFT fuel pressure reg

TURBOSMART fuel pressure gauge

1 intank fuel pump with 2 external pumps and a surge tank in boot

DRIFT pod filter with hard pipe very short intake

heavy duty clutch

52mm alloy radiator

TOMEI short shift kit

HID head lights

front head lights on toggle switch

battery relocated

turbo timer

rb25 engine

rb25 box

2 seater

turbo upgrade (from when it was a turbo car)

front mount (from when it was a turbo car)

Estimated Power:

car just made 170hp atw on the dyno with a safe tune with stock exhaust tuner said it should be capable of round 200hp with rev limiter raised and larger exhaust as the stock exhaust was very restrictive it now has extractors and a straight thru 3inch system (tuner recommended 3inch as of the sizeof intake etc)

dyno printout pretty much just goes up in a straight 45 degree angle so is awesome and responsive

and the important thing -chirps into 3rd gear even when changing at about 5000rpm ;)

just some photos taken on my phone sorry for the quality

thanks

Love it... are you keeping it NA? If I was a p plater (in a non turbo p plater state) this is almost exactily what I would drive...

Will you be looking for more power and mid range torque?

Buy the way, this set up would be peeeeeeeerfect for nitrous... Single point, 75hp shot, nice and easy. Perfectly legal to have set up in your car, just cant have it hooked up on the street.

Also the greddy intake manifold has quite short runners. Maybe have a look at getting a spacer made up that bolts inbetween the head and the manifold to lengthen the runners for a little more low to midrange power.

Cheers

Justin

Looking good, looking at doing similar mods to my car eventually.

XRATED he said it's for sale so he's probably keeping it NA until it says I would assume haha.

Is the car in NSW or QLD? How much are you looking at getting for it?

    • 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).
