Hi

i have a r33 gtst and just bought a 4294 gt42 precision turbo.

im stilk debating what housing sizes to go with.

i would love 1000hp out of the car but i know its costly and i dont want anything less than 800hp..

i have all the supporting mods to make the power and i want other opinions before i order the housings..

any help would be great

What are you plans for it? Are you just chasing numbers?

The larger the rear housing, the more torque and power, it also makes the top end more responsive at the expense of the low end = lag.

I have already done the following mods

forged bottom end with billet crank

Tomei type L fpr

bosch 023

Z32 afm

1000cc injectors

splitfire coils

fmic

greedy plenum and 92mm throttle body

exhaust

hd clutch with gtr racing flywheel

haltec ecu

other random stuff boost controller turbo timer etc

im yet to do the head and cam woek with studs and the new turbo im buying asap..

i will have the current engine for sale soon it is making 366rwkw at 25 psi.. pm me for details.

thanks for your advice scotty.

i am useing the car as a daily drag and track.. i also want the numbers as im more than half way there with all the parts i have wanting to build a engine..

so basicallyif i went with a larger rear housing i will have some lag at lower rpm..

its my daily aswell so i dont want to be boosting under 3000 to much anyway but i dont want it to be laggy if i put my foot down i want response aswell..

Would you recommend any size housing or put me onto a post that has b3en over this before ?

if any one else has some advide if would be good..

once again thanks for your help scotty

I dont mean to upset your 1000hp dream but your your going to need a f**k load more supporting mode to get even close to your goal. Z32 afm maxes out at 370ish kw. What capacity rb is it? If rb25 it is going to be a laggy dog to drive. Also ridiculous for a car with that turbo to be a daily driver. I hope you have at least 50k min yo bhrn.

its school holidays again isny it? Hahs.

Unless you have a 1000hp car or had you dont know what you on about..

http://www.nzefi.com/packages/power-upgrade/nissan-skyline-r33-rb25det/

That link will give you some detail but go ahead and contact them and you will see you wont need that much money to do it..

With a good mechanic and cheap parts supplier that i have you can do it in half the money..

iv already got a rebuilt box and diff aswell that i havn mentioned so if you just want to press buttons on the keyboard you might aswell get off this forum and keep studying year 10 though out your school holidays..

and maybe some spelling lessons

Mate I think you have no idea.

your looking at at least 7k-10k just to build a cylinder head to make 1000hp at the wheels.

You'll need a built rb30 bottem end grout filled, enlarged oil return holes, rb26 bearings for the big ends for better oiling ect. Plus all the other machine work done to handle that power. 1/2" head studs. And I could go on. Minimum of 10k just in the bottem end. Dry sump external pump and blah blah blah. Atleast 5k in the exhaust manifold custom cooler piping ect. Ect. Then yiur going yo need a ppg dog box built or holinger just to handle that power theres 10k for a ppg or 20k for a holinger.. Stock box will be farked qiuck as. Triple plate clutch. 3k there. Then you need a big brake kit, 5k. Furl setup. 4 bosch o44s and at least 2000cc injectors.there 3-4k. And I can still g po on with all the other things you neec.

So have fun building a 1000hp skyline for 20k haha.

as I said must be school holidays.

Pfft so every single triple plate clutch in the world is 2099 dollars is it? Which brand? And tell me why do you have a gtr box in a gtst? Also a gtr box and gts-t box box have ghe same internals. So a gtr box is no stronger. And at 1000hp a gts-t/gtr box will go bang crack crunch before you know it. Do your research and you would kniw this. You really do have no idea. Ive built and played with quite a few high hp rb's mate and I know whats involved.

      spot the stagea

      By AnimalGarage · Posted

      It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack.

      Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.

      In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).

      ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.

      OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
