Hi everyone,

Im so happy the other day when my supplier had a look at my new car for the first time. The sleeper is a total beast.

It looked to be a slightly modified car but when he popped the hood he found a massive top mount turbo that wasnt even on the engineers report!!

With all the mods we could expect 500bhp , we assume there must be bigger injectors and hopefully the internals are done.

Didnt expect this much power and now its gonna be a lot of work to bring it back to stock to get complied.

here are some of the mods i can see,

Apex intercooler with piping

hks pod with cold air induction

a garret top mount turbo of some kind

apex power fc and some other meter on dash (maybe air/fuel?)

full exhaust

aftermarket manifold

bigger injectors and maybe forgies

quickshifter

firm clutch of some kind

tien adjust suspension

black advan wheels

blitz boost controller

bov

and so much more...cant wait to see what else there is when it arrives!!! :wassup:

The car seems professionally modified with the best gear, with all the mods i expect it to push in the high 200s kw at the rears :aroused:

Anyone driven or know of an R33 GTST with this sort of power? it was suppose to be my new daily driver LOL

11sec runs shouldnt be a prob right?

Anyone know what it would be worth around?you wouldnt beleive the price i bought it for.

Cant wait to get it and hopefully i can get it ready for adelaides next auto saloon.

pics!

i know of a certain white gtst, other sau memebrs here would know also, around adelaide that im sure is putting out this amount of power either close to it if not more, equiped with aftermarket forgies, pistons apparently istalled or supplied by jun. It also was an import.

Matt's R33 has 299rwkw, I think Clints is about the same, and Joels's R32 will certainly exceed that when finally tuned, David's R33 has around 260rwkw, etc etc. There are plenty of others around too. The trouble you will have is traction. I think Matt with 299rwkw has only done a 12.2x run so far, as he can't get the power down. Sounds like a beast - nice buy! Sorry to tell you though, you will be looking at an easy $2,000 to stock it out for Regency then get your goodies put back on :D The prices for any performance workshop to even touch your car will blow your mind.

Yes, there are handful of skylines, gtst, with big horsepowers. Im sure the distinct white gtst im refferring to puts out more than 300rwks'. btw, aint clints and joels both rb30's?

In regards to regency, nightcrawlers on the money when he's referring to getting your car actually on the road. It can be a long and frustrating journey if heavily modified which seems to be the case indicated by the mods you listed. But than again each import is inspected differently.

yes i bought it so cheap you couldnt even import a stock auto at that price, i have calculated the cost to take mods off then put it back on. Mine is also white, its a total stock looker on the outside.

I already bought R34 GTR wheels for it and full GTR kit. If i have cash ill do a pearl gold, pink or some other funky colour paint job over it. Hopefully it will arrive on the 11th may but people will see a lot of this car in the city, ill definately make it stand out since there are too many skylines around. heres a couple of pics, oh anyone by anychance have any idea what turbo it could be(i know its hard to c)? Supplier said its a garret though...

Clints is a rb25 with 26 internals. It is very nice and already pushing ~340rwkw.

Darrens (Bl4ck32's) and mine are rb30det's.

I will be pushing upwards of 300rwkw and darrens should be some where around the 350rkw mark.

Definitely some hipowered GTST's getting around, or soon to be getting around. :)

Mine with the stock RB20DET turbo on 9psi made 175rwkw with a small peak to 176rwkw, I consider it to be 175rwkw.

It makes this at ~4400rpm and is held flat until ~4900rpm where power drops of dramatically due to the small crappy turbo. :)

I found it interestering how and where it made power,quite happy with the results.

The problem is it feels a little like a turbo diesel the way power is made then drops off. :)

Prolly seen a fair bit of action, but maybe a rebuild down the track and you will have one hell of a car.

I'd say you got a good deal but I don't know what you paid for it?

Keep us updated on the car, I'm keen to know how it turns out and exactly what the car comes with.

car was about 5k, im expecting to do a rebuild hence the price i bought it for but cant plan what iam exactly going to do as i havent seen the car myself yet.

WOW, 350kw atw is crazy....only about 630bhp!!! more power than a V8 supercar LOL

My R32 gts with a RB30DET is making 290 RWKW using stock bottom end and stock cams.

Traction is definately a problem with even slightly worn tyres, brand new tyres improve the grip heaps.

Joel,- What turbo is clint using on his RB25 to make 340 rwkw, how much boost??

    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
