Nice- I'm liking-

The NA (I think) grille

The strut brace- its a nismo right or Kansai?

The cleanness of the engine bay!

Green- you poms have something for greens tongue.gif

Whats that do-dah on the steering wheel? To many Danger to manifold jokes to be had there...

Whats the little plaque on the cam cover say?

Don't worry about the performance claims- Dynos are all completely different- and ramps rates, gears, operators etc etc all end up to be too many variables. Take it to the track- practice (said it was the first time yeah?) and lay down some numbers. Then you'll know where you stand! At the end of the day- if it puts a smile on your face- then happy times.

Good to have you here.

Yes it was .

I had to re register as changed email address and the password stopped working. This is where it is at now

The grille is the an NA one but it is also the one that goes with the nismo bodykit

The front strut brace is Kansai , rear is custom.

The button on the steering wheel is a remote boost switch that changes from low to high or of course the other way.

With this i can drive around on low and switch to high (1.5bar) immeadiately without taking my hands off the steering wheel.

The plaque

It is in memeory of Rob Gallager aka Tweenierob the guy and (mate) that built and mapped the engine .He was one of the top UK mappers and died in a road accident aged only 31

Why would anyone get upset with your power or performance figures?

There was some misunderstanding in the Stagea performance thread. I couldn't follow all of the ranting.

BTW, nice ride. Cars like yours would be a rare sight on the roads around your home town I'd imagine.

Looks great, feel free to share preformance figures, ignore the crap some people carry on with and as Alex said, as long as you enjoy it.

Have you got some more photos of the seats and dash. Curious to see what you have done as I have been thinking about similar mods. I'd like to switch seats but only if they matchs the trim, same goes for dials etc.

a dyno print out

stageadynorunnov09-1-1-1.jpg

Max power 502.9 max torque 455 ft lbs. at the hubs

For reference the figures are the ones I have . They are awd at the hubs on dynapack rollers at Abbey Motorsport who are not known for silly claims. However please feel free to convert to downunder figures in any way you choose - Im not going to .

Personally I only use they as a comparison between then and now or in the future, they are what they are.

It has had a few mods since then . Power is down a small bit but the torque is up to around 480

And thanks for your concern wolverine the amps is bolted down

I hope the new format of the forums doesn't start causing issues for you (and others) again like the old one did...

I had lots of problems with the old format but then Prank fixed it with what he called a band-aid solution. The one thing that still bugged me was that if you clicked on a link when you tried to close the link it would close SAU instead - that appears to be fixed now with this latest version.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!

      Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out

      I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.

      I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?

      I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
