Hello so I've brought a R33 Gtst. My first ever turbo car. Im looking to get it around 350 HP at the wheels. Now I've been doing a bit of research and I think I've found a good list of parts I need to make this possible. Just want to see what you guys think before I blow all my money. (Car at the moment is bog stock. Car is also automatic. I kind of want it for drags and circuit. I know manual is better but my daily is manual I wanted something different)

Parts:

-Intercooler

-Turbo smart boost tee & Boost guage

-Nismo 555cc injectors

-Turbo gt3037 (do I need better?)

-Apexi power intake

-Walbro 255 L/PH fuel pump

-Low mount & dump pipe

-R33 S2 AFM (Or Z32?)

-Lightweight pully kit

-And a tune (what's best tune to get).

This car is a track car so not ever going to be road legal so dont mind if I have to straight pipe or what ever.

Would that be enough to make 350 HP at the wheels? Or would I need a few more upgrades. Money isnt too much of an issue but would rather keep it below 2-3k.

Cheers guys

if you feel like saving money then just get a hypergear highflow done to your turbo.Those injectors and 18psi on petrol will make 350rw ponies easy.

Adaptronic ecu is much better than a nistune + Z32 afm

Although 3k might be a little optimistic as around 2k for ecu and turbo, then it needs tune for around 60-1000 depending on where you go, then there's still a fmic kit and exhaust

Guess I'll be spending more money then haha

hyper gear high flow 850.

full 3 inch exhaust and dump, 2-400 drift sales.

injectors and fuel rail, again bargains to be had second hand, 2-800

tune 750

emanage blue 200 dollars or power fc 6-900

fuel pump 100 bucks.

e85.

will make your power figure easily.

Have you played with the cam timing on the 32 ?

I see in your sig your 33 has a fair few bolt ons, what does the 32 have ?

I guess its your 32 that has 271kw ( if written respectively) plus the 32 GTR is 40kg heavier then the 33 GTS-t and there's fark all difference :/ , try getting the LCAs of the 32 cams to 110-108deg and see if there is still fark all difference :D

or try taking your motor thats been dialed in, and doing power runs at a further 20 degree intake retard, or a 20 degree advance, and see if there are any areas where you can from the extra advance, this will show you the use for vct

    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
    • I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.
    • I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?
    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
