Hey all,

I'm Jake, living in mackay and i have just got my hands on a Black 93 R33 GTST, I'm loving the car as I've only had na cars before so the speed is really enjoyable.

On weekend when i put the interior back together ill take some photos and post them here. if anyone is in mackay and wants to help me with anything or help out in anyway that would be great as i have little to no idea on whats been done to this car apart from it being fairly stock, so mods are welcome =)

The body is fairly stock which is how i like it so no exterior mods will be done apart from wheels and led globs eventually haha.

Regards Jake

Welcome Jake.

I highly recommend reading the forced induction threads for mod ideas.

a lot of the dos and fonts have already been figured out.

the search button is a great tool to find specific ideas.

use as little words to describe as possible to get the most results.

can't wait to see pics of your new beast.

I'm sure you will become obsessed as a lot if us have.

ps, please take most of the advice on this forum with a grain of salt.

there is a lot if good info out there.

there is also a lot of crap.

cheers, Luke.

Is that lowered at the front and not the rear Jake? Or am i just drunk?

Oh welcome BTW :)

yeah i only just noticed that after one my friends pointed it out... i think that the springs in the front a lowered after market ones and the rear are stock...

  • 3 weeks later...

Never seen Enkiei trispokes.

Cool.

Can't tell if serious >.>

Also i've made up some MDF spacers for my front door and have a pair of MTX splits installed. have a second set for the rear and all the wiring for my alpine amp. new head unit. and a MDF parcel shelf is in the works with loads of sounddeadener to keep the nasty rattles at bay.

What you planning to do about the height? Would ride a bit weird with it off balance yeah?

Get stuck into the mods :D

    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
    • Just like in being 14mm too small (296mm) makes it not fit, being 14mm too big (324mm) it also won't fit. You want to find the correct rotor.
    • @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
