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 .

    • Impossible to remove the housing while turbo is installed on the manifold on the engine. So I have to do it anyways. I plugged it so there will not be any debris in there. Will vacuum aswell 
    • would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)    
    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
