G'DAY 

I have a question  

And I need  some info 

R33 Rb25det  S2    

Camshaft  Tomei  264 lift 8.5mm

Are they   drop in setup

Without modifications  of  head 

And how good are   they 

8.5mm is designed to be drop-in, probably won't be anything much to write home about but it will presumably do something.

Better off with a set of more modern cams from Kelford. Email them about your needs and they will recommend most suitable cam profile. I have a set of poncams, they dropped in and did valve springs too. Only because that was al that available in 2009...... 
More lift is what you want

I would also recommend whatever you do you get cams that retain the NVCS. Being able to swing the cam even if it's fixed 15 degrees of advance is well worth the effort.

Yes they are drop in like above i also have Kelford cam in my 33 you will also have to get your car tuned to get the most out of them i would speak to you tuner you might want larger injectors as well depends what other mods you have done to your engine lump idle doesnt mean it will go any better

So this  my setup

Walbro 460 fuel  pump straight  from the battery 

E85

370Z coilpacks 

Injectors NISMO 740CC

Fuel pressure  regulator tomei

90mm throtle body 

Front  mount intercooler

GTX3076R

38mm external gate 

Top mount  exhaust  manifold

3inch  exhaust  straight 

Greedy style  plenum

50mm blow off

Oil cooler 

Aluminium  radiator 

ARP head studs 

Tomei  head gasket  1.2mm or 1.3mm

Tomei camshaft  264  and 8.5  

Tomei camshaft gears 

Z32 AIR FLOW Miter 

APEXI POWER FC  

APEXI  BOOST CONTROLLER

the GTX 3076 will easily make over 320Kw on ethanol no need for cams as will only shift powerband up higher. My old gt3076 does 300kw on 16psi.
I am guessing you want more power?
Ditching the freddy plenum and 90mm throttle body will improve the torque & response everywhere.

Yes I wanna  achieve  400kw 

But for 400kw  I need a new  ECU

And bottom  but it will  cost min 4K

So now I wanna really  safe 320kw-330kw

But in the  future   I'll  go to the 400kw and less work  it will take 

If it were my setup replace 90mm throttle body to 80mm to help your apexi air flow setup on your manifold increase your injector size if your going to be running E85.

My setup on my car runs 660cc injectors BP98 Wolf 550 ecu no air flow meter Hyper Gear rtr 43ss2 Turbo 272 Kelford cams Greedy ported manifold with 80mm T/B Lewis stage 3 ported and flowed head and it makes 473hp with 15 pounds boost so im sure with a couple of tweeks you can get similar power i do think you should go the extra mile and get a better ecu as apexi is getting a bit long in the tooth. I hope you get your car up to your expectations

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
