Need help! R33 gtst chasing power

Hey guys, 

I recently bought a r33 gtst which has some tasteful mods, custom exhaust, poddy, FMIC, alliminium radiator and FMiC

What can i do to reach 200kw atw? But i would need to stay in budget lets say the budget is around 4k or so. I can also get 1000cc injectors and ems stinger ecu but not sure which version for $500. If i get the ecu and tune it could i see 200kw on the stock turbo or will i have issues? 

Thanks for your wisdom o wise ones.

Yes you could get to or close to 200rwkw on a stock turbo. I wouldn't go over 11-12psi as the ceramic turbine wheels tend to snap off. If you're already getting injectors you could highflow the stock turbo for around $900. Will get you to 250-260rwkw. Will also need a better fuel pump, better airflow meter unless the ems runs map sensor, Afm won't be required.

I got 187rwkw @ 11psi on an average tune with FMIC and exhaust. Stock S2 turbo.

For what you're chasing, on a budget:

  • High flow turbo ($1100)
  • Walbro 460 pump, with allowance for relay mod and bits ($250)
  • Z32 AFM ($300)
  • RB20 ECU, Nistune and Dyno ($1300)

This assumes you wouldn't get the EMS or injectors, and the prices I listed are on the high side. This combo is sub-$3k is good for 220-240rwkw and gives you everything you need to shoot for more power with the addition of a good set of injectors, maybe a flex sensor and board.

What injectors are you considering? I had lots of trouble with injectors, make sure you do it right!

I think its bosch injectors... not sure. 

If there's any doubt, just go buy new. But as I said, you won't need injectors for <200rwkw

Inmaniac just exhuast and fmic? Stock ecu? And also what boost controller? 

So all id need is ecu and tune for 187rwkw? 

I used a Nistune, but in reality you don't need any ECU upgrade for that power level.

I used a GFB G-Force II EBC, but you can use a bleed valve if you really wanted to.

For that power level, your current mods and then upping boost to 11psi should do the trick. For 200+, as above.

Back in my old days I had a piggyback  safc2,gt28 turbo and managed to get 310 rwhp on stock r33 mad sensor. 

With the ems stinger,upgraded fuel pump+ injectors u should be able to achieve minimum 330 rwhp even do on stock turbo.

good luck mate

Just get a manual bleed valve such as a $40 turbotech or a turbosmart and boost it to a safe 10psi, should get around 180rwkw which is still enough to have fun with.

I wouldn't get a tune with the stock turbo, to get 200rwkw you will have to run higher boost which is playing with fire with the ceramic turbine.

This.

Up the boost, FMIC, exhaust etc etc.

I got 256rwhp (190kw) years ago (no ecu, injectors). Plenty to have fun with until you want to upgrade your turbo (and everything else!).

Lol. No.

OP, get a boost gauge and a manual boost controller (bleed valve). Set to 11psi (max) and go have fun. Set and forget until you have the coin to go bigger and better. That's essentially what everyone is saying.

Thanks for the replies guys. Ive decided to go with turbosmart ebc, ems stinger ecu, for now and see if im safe at 10psi. 

Also anyone know of someone that does close door resprays cheap? Gotta a couple of dings and marks on it. Live in sydney

The reason I stated that is because I have seen it with my own eyes...

My R31 made 109rwkW once (RB30E is a sub 100kW engine).
Surely a GTS1 cam, extractors and 20 years of use wouldn't give it that much increased power? I think I still have the dyno sheet haha.

My old manual r31 silhouette made 126 kw at the wheels. Had extractors and 270,000 kms of wheel spin and burnouts for mods. I miss that rusty piece of crap.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      This. As for your options - I suggest remote mounting the Nissan sensor further away on a length of steel tube. That tube to have a loop in it to handle vibration, etc etc. You will need to either put a tee and a bleed fitting near the sensor, or crack the fitting at the sensor to bleed it full of oil when you first set it up, otherwise you won't get the line filled. But this is a small problem. Just needs enough access to get it done.

      J50 clock date suddenly reset to January 1

      By suko · Posted

      The time is always correct. Only the date is wrong. It currently thinks it is January 19. Tomorrow it will say it is January 20. The date and time are ( should be ! ) retrieved from the GPS navigation system.

      Buy yourself a set of easy outs. See if they will get a good bite in and unthread it.   Very very lucky the whole sender didn't let go while on the track and cost you a motor!

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      Well GTSBoy, prepare yourself further. I did a track day with 1/2 a day prep on Friday, inpromptu. The good news is that I got home, and didn't drive the car into a wall. Everything seemed mostly okay. The car was even a little faster than it was last time. I also got to get some good datalog data too. I also noticed a tiny bit of knock which was (luckily?) recorded. All I know is the knock sensors got recalibrated.... and are notorious for false knock. So I don't know if they are too sensitive, not sensitive enough... or some other third option. But I reduced timing anyway. It wasn't every pull through the session either. Think along the lines of -1 degree of timing for say, three instances while at the top of 4th in a 20 minute all-hot-lap session. Unfortunately at the end of session 2... I noticed a little oil. I borrowed some jack stands and a jack and took a look under there, but as is often the case, messing around with it kinda half cleaned it up, it was not conclusive where it was coming from. I decided to give it another go and see how it was. The amount of oil was maybe one/two small drops. I did another 20 minute session and car went well, and I was just starting to get into it and not be terrified of driving on track. I pulled over and checked in the pits and saw this: This is where I called it, packed up and went home as I live ~20 min from the track with a VERY VERY CLOSE EYE on Oil Pressure on the way home. The volume wasn't much but you never know. I checked it today when I had my own space/tools/time to find out what was going on, wanted to clean it up, run the car and see if any of the fittings from around the oil filter were causing it. I have like.. 5 fittings there, so I suspected one was (hopefully?) the culprit. It became immediately apparent as soon as I looked around more closely. 795d266d-a034-4b8c-89c9-d83860f5d00a.mp4       This is the R34 GTT oil sender connected via an adapter to an oil cooler block I have installed which runs AN lines to my cooler (and back). There's also an oil temp sensor on top.  Just after that video, I attempted to unthread the sensor to see if it's loose/worn and it disintegrated in my hand. So yes. I am glad I noticed that oil because it would appear that complete and utter catastrophic engine failure was about 1 second of engine runtime away. I did try to drill the fitting out, and only succeeded in drilling the middle hole much larger and now there's a... smooth hole in there with what looks like a damn sleeve still incredibly tight in there. Not really sure how to proceed from here. My options: 1) Find someone who can remove the stuck fitting, and use a steel adapter so it won't fatigue? (Female BSPT for the R34 sender to 1/8NPT male - HARD to find). IF it isn't possible to remove - Buy a new block ($320) and have someone tap a new 1/8NPT in the top of it ($????) and hope the steel adapter works better. 2) Buy a new block and give up on the OEM pressure sender for the dash entirely, and use the supplied 1/8 NPT for the oil temp sender. Having the oil pressure read 0 in the dash with the warning lamp will give me a lot of anxiety driving around. I do have the actual GM sensor/sender working, but it needs OBD2 as a gauge. If I'm datalogging I don't actually have a readout of what the gauge is currently displaying. 3) Other? Find a new location for the OEM sender? Though I don't know of anywhere that will work. I also don't know if a steel adapter is actually functionally smart here. It's clearly leveraged itself through vibration of the motor and snapped in half. This doesn't seem like a setup a smart person would replicate given the weight of the OEM sender. Still pretty happy being lucky for once and seeing this at the absolute last moment before bye bye motor in a big way, even if an adapter is apparently 6 weeks+ delivery and I have no way to free the current stuck/potentially destroyed threads in the current oil block.
