Hey sorry, probably shouldve put more info 🤣 ill double check if he has a dyno sheet but not confident he does.

Its an r33 gtst, 25det. 86,000kms. It runs @ 9psi atm, so would 388rhp be realistic for that type of boost? (New to turbo cars in general)

Im currently looking at MV's valve body and a 19row oil cooler as hes blown 2 gearboxes already (family member so not worried about it too much).

Getting it super cheap so keen to start working on it. Possibly turning down the boost just to save it for longer until manual conversion.

And yes he plays the war, farming games 🤣🤣

Really? Is that with oil cooler etc? Or just the plain old box

Let's be clear. It's a road car. You can't stay on the power for more than about 10s at a time anyway, and even if you flog it through the hills you're only on the power < half the time. You don't need to worry about cooling the box too much, and it is mechanically strong enough to handle that much torque.

If you cane it silly, then yes, it will suffer. But if you drive it around normally, and launch it from the lights some of the time, you're not doing anything outrageous to it. If it breaks, it will be because it's 30 years old.

Nismo 740cc injectors seem to indicate the side feed ones, which would point towards an RB25.

Next to the 60m food ?

Looks like the food was 36m?

Yeah stock 30 year old RE4 with a 3788 even at 9psi doesn't sound ideal

Does the current owner have a dyno graph? It is a bit of an old school setup but probably around 400 rwkw.

Where is the 100m wood installed?

🤣

    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
    • Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them? 
    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
    • Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
