yeh looking forward to getting 200+ with no major mods

there isnt a whole lot left in the R33 turbo im afraid if your on the 14/15psi mark now with it.

1-2psi more and i think thats where the power increase will stop (if it isnt there already)... and where the wheel spitting will occur :P

Id say this is true. Last time i was on a dyno i tried 1 bar = 183rwkw and 1.1 bar = 185rwkw

Ok, just posting a brief update on my car.

Took it out for the cars and also my first quarter mile action at Heathcote.

Really really bad axle tramp and wheelspin. The car was shaking so hard the boost gauge rattled off the dash! LOL. Couldnt do better than 2.5 60 footers. My initial plan was to crack 13s and 110mph. But just missed out on both. Ran 14.2/3 every run and 108-109mph.

Popped my drag cherry and will attack calder asap.

Ah yes R&D on a RB20 to make big power is good. makes you use ur brain than just opening your wallet. will make the end result (if all works out lol) more rewarding.

When is this thing goign to be finished. If someone can get decent numbers out of an RB20 then i may bother sinkign a couple of hundered a month into my spare RB20, though i dont see my TD06-20G ever cracking 270-280rwkws no matter what head/cams mods i run:blink:

lol yes ROY this build has been going on for a while, but ive turned a car i used in a wedding into a drift machine and that takes money. so stay tuned. i was going to do the engine first but decided to start at the rear and work forward. once i start on the engine it will only take a few weeks and it will be back in and making some numbers. I can pretty much promise you it will crack 300rwkw. its just a matter of having the spare time and money.

Close to the 200rwkw mark. Got a tune the other day and got 255 rwhp @ 1bar. Was hoping for more like 290ish but will have to wait for new fuel pump to go in! hopefully next weekend.

Has HKS 2530

32 gtr cooler

550? injectors

z32

lumpyrom retune/remap

Had magor ping before tune and had troubles getting it to the stage where it wouldnt. Was told fuel pump should cure this so am putting in bosch 023. What sort of boost are others with a 2530 running? I was thinking of going to 1.1 bar but would like to see 300rwhp.

r32 rb20det (late model) swapped into USA s14 chassis

RIPS intake mani

tomei 260/8.8 cams

greddy cam gears (currently zeroed out)

gt30r turbo with .63ar turbine

550 supra injectors

fmic 24x3.5x6

hks exh mani and gate

retuned ecu for injectors and z32 maf with tweaked timing map

from the looks of it the lag is proly caused by the lean condition on spool up, once i get my biki rom from bad biki life should be much better.

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
