Will It Be Safe To Drive?

[R33Matt]

Hey,

My brother has just put a bigger turbo, bigger injectors and a Z32 AFM on his R33 Gts-t. I think the turbo is GT35 size, not sure of the brand. The car hasn't been tuned and the ecu is a Power FC. He was thinking of driving it around tomorrow.... Im thinking that this would be a super bad idea and can damage the engine? So I was wondering if he could drive it at all? Could he drive it if he didnt hit boost?

Will it be ok to drive around at low revs, or will it Tick Tick BOOM!

Thanks

He will be lucky if it even starts

Injectors and AFM need tu be tuned/configured.

So basically, don't even bother. Not worth the risk.

its pretty simple really

if he drives it, guess what he will try and do? spool it up and see how hard it goes

so basically, no dont drive it

As if he's gonna drive it around without hitting boost! And if it isnt tuned for the AFM then he will be lucky to get out of the driveway. But its up to him. It will be a cool story for you to tell us when he blows his engine anyway! look forward to it !

+1 for won't start.

Great choice... GT35 on a stock RB25... Its going to go tick tick boom anyway.

Good luck.

if you set the afm and scale the injectors properly you can usually drive it around lightly. but you need to know the size and latency difference for the injectors

Another guy on here running a GT35 on an unopened motor, 25psi 475rwhp, 3 years. All depends on your driving. As a daily driver it will last.

To OP, as others have said, it won't start with those injectors. AFM you can get it working in the PFC, same as injectors if you know how to set them. It will be driveable to get to a tuner. I drove my car with my Z32 and SS2 turbo to the tuner then had them fit the injectors in.

A while ago I had a tune on my power FC for 200rwkw (stock injectors, stock turbo). A year later I had 740cc injectors put in, along with a high flow turbo. I then tried to drive it un-tuned to the tuners. It was running like crap, black smoke was pouring out, it was spluttering and I couldn't go over 30km, it made it less then 1km before the car completely died. Flooded the engine, had to get a tow..

Not worth it.

^^^yep will start. But very poorly and not for long. It will flood the cylinders with fuel and foul the spark plugs
