Hi. Im thinking of spending $5k on my R33 GTS-t. So far it has POD, 3" zaust from turbo, 'cooler and is lowered with mags.

Any suggestion as to what to spend this $5k on? i admit i dont know much about this stuff, but was thinking maybe new turbo, injectors, fuel pump, computer etc. does anyone have any advice about this stuff? brands, sizes etc.

thanks for any help.

Hey mate i have a turbo package that would suit you, its only $1000,00. Which includes turbo, waste gate, all braided lines and chrome rfittings to suit, also comes with a hks pod filter and custom turbo blanket. That would leave you with $4000 and you could get a power fc and hi flowed injectors fitted and tuned for $2500. Than get a fuel pump bout $400 fitted and than the use the rest to set up the turbo it come with a factory warranty as well. Just a thought i can send u pics of the turbo if you like.

nengun had a gtrs for rb25 kit for $4500 i think it was. powerfc, boost controller kit, gtrs turbo, injectors all fittings and gaskets etc. would be well suited. however you would still need a clutch, good tyres and a set of cams for more midrange power. the gtrs on rb25 can do around 260rwkw (ish) check out rb25 turbo upgrade thread a few months ago.

I just did the gtrs $2912, 6 nismo 555cc injectors $939, power fc and boost kit $1510 + $250 shipping got 270rwkw at 1.2 bar and good response. Also need z32 airflow meter $295 and dyno tune and installation. But you could do it with out the z32 and injectors and keep the boost a bit lower and keep it under 250rwkw.

HD Clutch =$1200 installed

exhaust side adjustable cam gear - $250 installed

PFC + boost controller kit= $1500 + fitted & tune ($400)

Borch Fuel Pump $350 installed

gcg BB high flow - 1800 installed

220rwkw should not be a problem

once u got the $$ for injector and head gasket 250+ is achivable

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
