Firstly, if you search the forum you would have found your answer. This question has been asked many times but anyways....

0-100 is in the 7s i'm pretty sure. You can beat the old v6 commodores, but not the new generations. v8's, you don't stand a chance. You can't get the turbo whistle, but with a pod the car does sound very nice.

By the way I know this coz I had a R33 GTS on my L's.

aye dude u can pull a nice healthy 120 - 130rwkw from the gts but takes some diy mods , but if high performance imports did it, then it can be done refer to my thread on GTR engine, sumwhere in there was a guide to how it can be done :D the gts is still pretty quick, 105rkw stock while a gtst is around 130rwkw stock, its not too bad in comparision :(

A VL commdore would be faster than a GTS easy...

Bigger engine and weighs much less (VL)

If your buying a GTS dont even bother with performance cuz really it doesnt have any

R33 GTS25 - 147kw (200hp)/1470kg (stock) - what's the VL RB30E engine rated at stock?

IMHO the GTS25 is not a bad buy if you want a simple cruiser without the hassles of a turbo. Just avoid the 2L GTS model, though I don't think there are many of those in Aussie.

Make that 1320kg stock :(

yep, all up they are a good package, and are really cheap for what you get IMO.

i bought one as my introduction to imports and although they don't have the outright power of gts-t, they are still an awesome car to get around in. still take mine out on occasions and still love driving it.

the 25 head should flow more and also the vvt will help give it more power. the rb30e wont flow as much. the only time youd wanna put an rb30e near an r32, r33, r34 is when you wanna do rb30det conversion and you use the rb30e block, with an rb25det head. or i guess you could do an rb30de conversion and gain more power

      The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.

      Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.

      Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks

      M35 VQ25DET starter motor

      By iain_ST44GA · Posted

      Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..

      I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.
