hello

I have recently brought a 1994 r33 with a RB20e in it, i was just wanting help on what modification i could do to it to get maximum legal horse power. I am on my P plate so unable to turbo it. I have already brought a pod filter for it and am currently building a cold air box for it.

Just wanting to know the best mods and are there any good performance chips out there?

would appreciate your help, i know its a shit engine so please no criticism.

Thanks in advance

max power you would most possibly get without opening up your engine would be the 150hp mark.

but it will be an expensive trip.

N/A tuning is not for the shallow pocket, nor for the faint hearted, thats why BMW M power and AMG cost the goods :D

like said above, wait till your off your p's or just buy a s2000. they haul ass

don't spend a single cent on it. if you want more power, sell it and by a r33 with the rb25 in it. that alone will see you get a roughly 40kw gain in power. the amount you would have to spend on your motor to even get close to that would be close to what you could buy a second complete car for, plus it wouldn't be P plate legal. you will only get a few kw gain from any mods that will be P plate legal (and not to mention the fact that any mods that will gain you more than a few kw will cost a buttload). to be honest, you would've been better off buying a different car. a commodore, falcon or even a lancer would beat your car. and for those that know me will know what the next car recommendation will be (and it isn't a magna, it's the other one). my choice would've been a SSS pulsar. it has more power than the rb20E in the skylines (9kw more), and the car weighs less (over 100kg less).

probably not what you wanted to hear

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
