maybe 250 degree cams

nittos

move throttel body to front of plenum

and later on forgies and maybe some slicks

this set up is much the same as the hpi r34 gtt , it runs 11.9 on nittos and has 296rwkw , hopefully my set up will give same or better results. any doos or dnts about my set up, wat do uz think bout it?

Power fc and tune $2000 tops

FMIC $1300 for a 1/2 decent one

Turbo back exhaust $1300

Nitrous kit & instalation $2000 tops with tune plus ongoing cost of filling bottle

$100-$500 for decent rims for 16" tyres if thats what you use

$700-$900 for 16" drag radials

more then likely you should already have exhaust or fmic in which I'd spend the money left from that on camber kit, pineapples etc to help with launch

So easily no more then $8000

Perspectives have changed in more than a few peoples minds lately, hey?!?!? Not just yours Brett, you know the number of pm's and emails i've had? It's just amazing. Like you said, makes ya look at any 33 gtst with a front mount and exhaust a little differently...

Nah Adrian I still think its false power because you can't use it all the time and don't think adding it to a car would add value to the car the way a after market turbo kit would, but if its just a quick fix and fast time you want its the way to go for sure, but as you know I'm a mod person so we'll all have different opinions which is fair enough

Brett

Cost using nitrous for 11's.

Nitrous Kit + fit = less than $2k

Big ass Fuel pump (needs to be big enough to feed the motor and the nitrous kit) = $500

Fuel pressure reg = $200

Pineapples (diff cradle kit) = $100

Drag radials = $700

New ceramic puck clutch plate (if your present one is factory organic) = $500

thats about $4k to do the 11's.

You don't need a fmic or even an aftermarket ecu. A second hand S-afc for $350 will be nice for off the gas but, otherwise not necessary.

Nah Adrian I still think its false power

WTF is false power?

and don't think adding it to a car would add value to the car the way a after market turbo kit would

So? I'm talking about peoples perspectives changing in regards to nitrous use at the drags (i.e quest for 11's). Who gives a sh1t whether it adds value to the car?!?!? That's all I meant.

quick fix and fast time you want its the way to go for sure

That's what he wanted.

but as you know I'm a mod person so

All of a sudden Nitrous isn't a modification?!?! WTF?!?!?

P.S. you're purple glowing name is ghey!

:(

Adrian

buster,

sadly didn't get to take the car to the strip before kangaroo's made me sell a few things to adrian.

I had plenty of fun none the less. From experience I'd say even with the 205's on the back I would have managed a very entertaining mid/low 12. I was running around double the shot of gas adrian was at one stage.

WTF is false power?

Maybe the wrong choice of word on my part, I meant I like my power all the time not JUST when I'm at the drags

That's what he wanted.

where does he state he wants a quick fix?

All of a sudden Nitrous isn't a modification?!?! WTF?!?!?

Once again I meant I like modifications that I gain from every time I drive the car, so I can enjoy the power all the time

So? I'm talking about peoples perspectives changing in regards to nitrous use at the drags (i.e quest for 11's). Who gives a sh1t whether it adds value to the car?!?!? That's all I meant.

I was only giving my perspective as you said

"Perspectives have changed in more than a few peoples minds lately, hey?!?!?"
and I was stating no it hadn't really in my mind as I like an 11 sec car all the time not only some of the time

No use in getting upset though, we can all have different opinions :P

    • 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
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
