See doesnt look as good, eventually ill get a GT / F6 rear bar keep the rest of the body standard, lower it - better rims etc.

stock rear bar still not bad:

but i like the GT rear bumper:

Give me some time and will be a boss of a car, no pun intended.

i thought that's what F6s looked factory no?

what's the difference between yours and the GTP? also which one is higher in the range GS GT or GTP?

Yeah it is, but the f6 and GT look different to the GS (better) is what im getting at, and when i say modded just lowering it and putting a decent set of rims and stripes make it looks soo much better.

In new engine order goes:

GTP is best "335kw", 6/4 brembos, better seats, different wheels etc (f6 / GT bodykit)~85-90k

GT is below "335kw", 4 pot brembos front, not as good seats no brembos rear (f6 / GT bodykit)80k

GS is below "315kw" bit more detuned stock, same driveline minus the 4pot bremb, bodykit and slightly different seats ~60k

F6 start at 60k without options, but I wanted the 8. IMHO felt a lot like a taxi when you wern't floggin it.

Basically couldn't justify (or really wanted to spend) the extra for what you get, guess its a bit like if a GTST had a rb26, 4wd and no brembos lol

Hope that made sense, thats all the FPVs in a nutshell.. minus the GTE and F6E which are luxury exec versions.

ah i see

yeah big price difference. aslong as you know you wont regret anything when you pull alongside 1 of the higher spec models :/

Yeah they are nice but the difference is quite a bit, I'll be making my car my own and enjoy the hell out of it :D

Anyone on here using plazmaman products? Had a mate running a fmic on his xr6t and couldn't speak any higher of it. Definetly thinking of saving for a few months and getting a fmic with their plenum.

One user here went backwards upgrading plenum...

And realistically, unless you are over 350rwkw, there is no need for it - or the defect

About 1800, maybe a bit less which is expected I guess for a big car.. got about 300kgs on my old GTR :O.. still do a tune and your in 11s.

You think a R33 GTR weighs 1500kg? :spank:

It's more than that. Especially once you add exhausts, wheels/bigger tyres.

Gotta get mine onto a weight bridge shortly and I'm not expecting to see it under 1600kg, with me standing outside.

    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies. 
    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
