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.

    • Hey guys I have a 2001 Nissan stagea vq25det, I don't have any engine lights and not really any issues running but I was curious to see if I could use my obd II scanner to find anything that was hidden and I plugged my scanner in and it just said "Low voltage cannot scan" does anyone know how to fix this or what this could be?
    • Sadly we have something in common, our Skyline's like blowing up electrically 😢
    • So, no videos, but, the FAB9 Elite manifold and 68mm Bosch throttle bodies are in stock, but, not the rear part of the air box The FAB9 rear airbox thingie is made with a 3" intake pipe, to suit the 3" intake pipe size of a 68mm throttle body  When they get some more in stock is currently unknown as I'm waiting for FAB9 to reply with a ETA on resupply, my assumption is they outsource their plastic printing stuff to "china", and with the current "tariff war" going on in 'Merica it could be on hold for an undisclosed time Should I pull the pin on the Intake and throttle body, and wait for the airbox?????, that's what I'm thinking... 1. Would the standard 2.75" OEM intake on the air box really be that much of a restriction compared to the 3" naturally aspirated?????? 2. If I don't get the 3" FAB9 airbox fitted at the same time as the intake and throttle body will it need a retune, when/if it eventually turns up?????? As I'm impulsive, to a fault, decisions will be made within....."what's the time now"???....let's say 12 hours......LOL
    • yeah its just so expensive nowadays and its easy to lose motivation very quickly when you start adding up the costs. I acquired the car from a collector in Melbourne and was lucky to get the opportunity to buy something already completed.  I looked at a proper resto and your paying over 300-400K for a proper one (nut and bolt) so this one to me seemed like a much better option! Car is in private storage and for serious buyers, welcome to come see it/drive it in person (photos don't do it justice).
