From my much more modest experience with a basic RB30 I would say there is no way the 3.2 could not be a great daily driver even with 400 or 500awkw if tuned appropriately. I agree 1000 injectors would give you a little margin ... those 700s could well get maxed out on E85

I'd say you'll be needing bigger injectors than those peanut 700's, Pete. Especially if you're going to flex tune it.

I have just emailed the shop and asked what injectors are in the car, maybe a higher rating or he is changing them , I will try and find out tomorrow.

I doubt they would stuff it up over changing the injectors if they need changing, but ????

Yes definitely upgrade injectors I ran out of fuel at 470rwkws on ID1000s on E85. They are cheap and will save you a re-tune

I cannot imagine them not upgrading these if they need it, as I said , I do not know what was put in there when they did the original build, the bloke spent over $50k including Z-tune body set, but I think Advan used a copy bonnet but I could not get them to verify the parts bought from them, including the Nismo 2-way LSD??

So I am in the dark on a few things but trying to sort it out :/

Power will depend on boost level really, but a responsive 400awkws sounds about right to me :yes:

700s will be ok for 400 on 98, not so good on E85 :(

Not sure what injectors are in the car, they could be 1000cc , waiting on an answer from CRD. They are installing the flex fuel system so they now the injectors will have to handle the E85, so ?

When I spoke to Jim about building the 3.2 he said that a torquey 400awkw on pump would be a nice street car and would give me what I want.

He said if I ever wanted to turn up the wick, big HPs can be obtained, but like everything, more $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$s have to pass hands, yes , from mine to ?

I was going to buy a GTR, but did not like them, I wanted a car that made me feel like I was driving it , 8 years in an auto was enough , but a TT 350GT auto can be a lot of fun.

What I will get from this build should be more than what I need, but I will enjoy what I use :)

Just had a look on your pictures. You have blue caps. I BELIEVE. Those light blue ones are Sard 700's.

Same colour as in this for sale thread.

I know what you mean Luke, glad I am not young anymore (joke) maybe we can bolt in a jet motor soon, haha

On the sad side, no pics :yucky:

Has the build come to an end :woot:

Fn hope not :unsure:

Just have a feeling they were 700s

I will try to get an answer and that is like pulling fn teeth

Yes , yes, you blokes were right .

It is like they hold your car hostage , photos are like getting a Video of your love one proving they are still alive but you have to pay and take a chance to get them back in good condition :(

I am sure this post will not help my situation but I am at a point were I do not give a fark!

The Mushroom :rant:

So long as they're not sending you single nuts by mail, you'll be ok.

They send nothing, a nut would be good, so looks like it could get nasty , hope not, but shit happens :)

The trouble is they read all of this shit and I get the blame for what other blokes have said, the worst thing is, you blokes were right :/

So here we are, drive line was going in and communication has stopped, farking cars :verymad:

I think I will trade the Tiida in so I can get another fun car, 4 door something and I do not give a shit how long it takes :)

    • You know how your car rolled through a fence in your last jacking escapade? Scissor jacks increase the likely hood of that sort of thing happening immensely!
    • http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.
    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
