Howdi!

I have a couple of questions.

What is the size of a stock R33 GTST turbo?

What good would a GT28 roller bearing turbo be on a R33 GTST?

Also, if you run the above turbo without an intercooler, what are the side effects?

Your help would be much appreciated... I have been having a heated discussion with someone regarding this topic.

Thanks.

Erica.

RB25 runs a T3... swap commonly done to r32s or rb20/ca18 in general...

GT28 and T28 are totally different btw... GT28 is a fair wack bigger...

GT28 should spool up ok - it wont spool as quick as the standard T3... but prolly 300rpm after or so?

GT28 without front mount would be pushing it thats for sure - especially with summer coming up it would ping badly

reminder - coolers do drop inlet temps down... but they are worse for engine temps as they block the rad air flow a bit - aftermarket radiators this summer peoples!

cheeky, you know that a lot of us are too shy to answer your question(s) just in case John prove us wrong :P

When are you getting the 33? Will it be white again?

If I have my pick I will go for the silver one with nismo wheel on it...hint...hint :D

Hey dude...

I spoke to John about it, he isn't firmiliar with GTSTs as he is with GTRs. Thats ok though. yeah those nismo rims are totally tuff.

I was thinking about getting an 33 and totally love my skylines, but I've decided on something of german quality and style, its just easier, maybe next year I'll get another skyline.

      Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
