Hi guys, my name is Levi,ive had many cars over the years , many sr20's, v8s,supercharged and turbos with decent power, I recently sold my Evo 7 and made me realise i really want to go on the hunt for more power again, I figured a 33 platform would be a perfect base as they are relatively cheap, and a good base, originally i was planning to just throw on a bigger turbo, ecu etc, But a full rb25/30 setup came up for sale and i jumped at it. Car will be a weekender which i can take to the track every now and then and thrash around, Keeping the outside pretty standard as i think the series 2 looks pretty good for a boat.

Owner:Levi

Car: Silver R33 gtst series 2 w/ sunroof

Motor: Currently standard 25det with exhaust and fmic

Rb25/30 setup consists of: 25top end, series 2 rb30 A6 bottom end, HKS drop in cams- 256/264, arp head studs, bearings etc, GT3076 hi mounted with tial 38mm external gate and screamer pipe, Freddy manifold with 300zx 100mm TB, top feed fuel rail with xr6t injectors apparently . All powered by a Haltech platinum pro with rev limiter set at 6500 on 14psi it made 280kws on pump in the drift car i bought it out of.

Plans for the motor: Brand new gaskets throughout, clean absolutely everything, polish manifold, wrinkle black the manifold, turbo beanie etc, just make everything look neat and tidy, retune, i havent decided if i want e85 or keep it pump as i want to still be able to drive the thing and E85 is a bit of a headache.Car is ridiculously responsive which is perfect for a streeter so we will see how it all goes, motor and box should be in my car within the next couple of weeks!

Box: rb25 box with ORC twin plate clutch.

Suspension, old HKS coilovers, factory arms etc lol.

My old motor and box with 130xxxkms on it still running standard boost and mint gearbox with exedy cushion button clutch is also up for sale , and available within the next week or so!, I look forward to speaking with you all soon, Thanks for reading!

    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
