hi i currently own an r33 non turbo and i am thinking of upgrading it to the gtst. i just wanted to know if there is much difference in the problems that go wrong with them. the only problem i had with mine is the clutch and now its all fine.'

so would it be better to keep the non turbo or buy a turbo. your opinions will be greatly appreciated.

thanks

it all comes down to the condition of the car u get. sure there might be a little more things to look out for cause its a turbo but in the end if u maintain it well u'll have no probs. ive had my car for 4 yrs now and the only probs ive had is a sqeaky clutch, worn thrust bearing, worn castor bushes and recently a dead power window motor. all due to wear and tear and all minor issues. i guess when u start boosting without knowing what ur really doin then u can come into some trouble. but yeah...once u go turbo u dont want to go back:D:D

sqeaky clutch

was this due to the slave cylinder? I've heard this is the problem... I'm getting a slight

squeak from mine... like it needs a dose of WD40 or something...

not too sure...

help is appreciated.. cheers

      If you have a Nissan from Japan and model year is from 2016 to 2024, just say you have an Infiniti Q50 4 doors... Why are telling you have an import?

      Rb25det s1 igniter pin out

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      It's definitely not firing order. But I think it should also be made clear that the output that gets fired is the one that corresponds to the input that was switched at the ECU. So you could scramble them up totally so that the numbers meant nothing, and so long as you had the inputs and outputs matched up, you'd be fine. The reason I make that point is that blanket statements about what it is supposed to be don't always hold out in a world where there's been 30 years for the wiring to have been stuffed with.

      Hello, im asking about this guy - coil igniter on rb25det series 1 r33 s1 engine. I need to know if pins on coil side indicate coils itself from 1-6 or it’s firing order so pin nr1 goes to 1st fired spark plug:(1pin-1firing spark, 2pin-5order firing spark, 3-3, 4-6, 5-2, 6-4…)   photo: https://files.fm/f/k9pdug38uq

      Powder coat on mating surface

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Remove it. Certainly from the hub face. I'm not in love with leaving it on the wheel assembly surface either - but if it is common to do so, then....maybe fair enough. It's not difficult. Just time consuming. For the hub face you just need a large enough block and suitable grades of abrasive paper to get it off flat. The same would be true of the assembly face. Just more time consuming, probably needing a lot more care. It's defo going to be easier just to assemble the wheels as is, seal them up, and check them periodically to see if there's any movement or loosening of the fasteners, than it will be to remove it though.

      Powder coat on mating surface

      By dyl33 · Posted

      Hello, I got my wheels powder coated and they've powder coated bloody everything the mating surface and hub (even told them not to lol) anyway should I leave it or remove it. (Would be very hard) I've searched a lot and lots of powder coaters don't mask the mating surface but do mask the hub surface. How bad it powder coat on the mating surface or hub? My question is what should I do?
