Hey everyone!!

As you all know once you buy a GTR you will end up broke but that's the fun of it hehe ;)

Well it's a 33 gtr, just recently the hg let go after getting it tuned!! All the car had is a full exhaust and adaptronic ecu. So it's time for upgrades :)))

So far I got the stock twin turbo off and pretty much I broke every single pipe bolt etc ( it was a night mare). Now slowly taking the intake side off and then head off!! 

Mod list:

Bw s300sxe (8376 - 62mm) ts .91

Ts 6boost mani 

Turbosmart 50mm ext pro gate

3.5" tbh (no cat)

4" intake pipe

avcr boost controller or I can use the ecu to control the boost ( which one is better) 

fmic 100mm

3" intercooler piping 

Bosch 2000 cc injectors (any issue using them on e85)

walbro 460l fuel pump ( thinking of going 2 in tank pump setup)

turbosmart fuel reg 

tomei hg 87 bore and 1.2 thinkness with intake n exh as well

tomei type valve springs 

arp head studs

tomei 1.5 oil restrictor 

new radiator and also all the hoses are getting changed

im getting the timing done with all the seals etc 

setting up an oil catch to control the oil better.

hopefully will reach the 400kw as the motor still stock but will see how far it will get to before it blows up.

i will be taking pictures as I go so hopefully everything will turn out to be good.

 

any suggestions or tips to help please let me know.

i hope you guys enjoy it

thanks

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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.
