Ok to get into the 12's you will most likly need to change the stock turbo.

I would go like this

exhuast + dump + front pipe (no need for screamer)

Air filter ($100 K&N)

FMIC (hybird 600x300x76 $400-$500 + piping)

Greddy Plenum (option really, just cut down on piping and is only good if ur aiming for higher power lvls $1200)

Ecu (power fc, wolf3d, motec etc, depending on the tuners in ur area will depend on what u get really if you have a good pfc tuner i would take that over an average wolf tuner) (PFC should cost you around $1300 inc hc)

EBC (apexi, hks,greddy price $500-$800)

Turbo i would go HKS GT25 (or highflow stock turbo) both i have seen good results and making a r33 run 12's :D

injectors i belived 550 would be the best for the power you would be aiming for

Just something to think about i have been told that pushing as stock r33 engine over the 300rwhp becomes risky and can results in damaging the engine really easy. Also you will be clutch and stock upgrade, and also bigger tyres than stock to make it easyer to get traction

thats all i got for now, hope it helps.

Ohh yeah 12's isnt easy, drag racing isnt easy ;) i ran a best @ 14.3 with 170rwhp (est i would say be around that mark) i could do better now the car is runing better etc, but getting the power to the ground is always the problem.

Autobox i would add cooler on it, do a serach heaps of info on r33 auto boxs.

ohh yeah and if u are using an r33 for drift, u need a 5spd auto wont cut it :P

mike :)

2rismo can run 12.9's before he hits the bottle, and i heard him say the record for stock turbo was around 12.7......quite possible depending on the condition of the car.

I can run a 13.4 using only cat back zorst and boost with crap tyres, but i might just be special lol

yeah sweet as, sounds good

thanks for all your answers,

will be doin most of the things you's have listed when

i get the money, i have a car im sellin

just a gemini thats been worked abit did high 15's in it

with a .8 start

so soon as i sell that i'll be onto the start of mods

thanks for all the help again

and you'll hear about it when i have done it.

Isn't "Drags" racing?  

Havn't u anything better to do circuit boy? got a chicane to go thru or sumthin? Haha :D

;) :upurs:

and I thought Pizza boy was racing for Williams in F1?

No such thing as street racing on SAU :D

i was just sayin "12's" as thats how fast i want the car to go

just givin you guys a figure, so ya know how fast i was talkin about.

sorry bout that, but yeah once i get most of the stuff done

i'll let yas know, and im for sure know will be askin for advice and whateva along the way

if some of yas are goin on the cruise on the 28th i'll see yas there .

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
