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.

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

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.

      Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.

      I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things

      I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt

      So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm.
