hey everyone...i have recently brought a r33 gts-t...person i got it off says it has 250kw at the rear wheels....a mate finds it hard to believe as its mostly stock.......has stock intercooler....he told me it has a sierra hybrid turbo with custom made wheel (stainless)...it has a boost controlller on it and he said it runs at 12p for the 250kw and can be turned up to 28p for over 500kw...is this all a lie?? i got it pretty cheap and interior is in great condition so i wouldnt be fussed if it was stock power.... i have it booked for a dyno on thursday......any info would be good cheers.....

yep, the guy you bought it of sounds like he's full of crap. easiest way is to check the ecu. pull off the passenger side kick panel. if it's a stock nissan ecu then there's 90% chance it's stock and when you put it on the dyno it will make about 250hp at 12psi.

also you could post a pic of the turbo.

oh and if it makes full boost by just under 3000rpm then you know it is the stock turbo. no turbo cabable of 500kw will make full boost by anywhere close to 3000rpm

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
