Okay this is how i see it;

Most stock R33 25t's i've seen run will run low 14's with crappy 60ft's between 2.0 - 2.5 put a set of slicks on it on stock rims i'm sure you could get 60ft down to 1.75 - 1.8 which should give you enough for low 13's and remember that elf is going to give you more power.

I find it hard to believe even a high 13 out of a stocker..

mine has a full exhaust ('cept the dump) with some nice suspension mods, i get 2.25 60' times.... (235 tyres) and I only managed a 14.86 BEST.

with a POD, and boost to 10psi I think a high 13 would be possible. but not stock. I'd like to see someone's timeslip for a STOCKER!?!?!

Just cos you can't drive, doesn't mean that the car isn't capable of better :mad:;):D :D :P

I managed a 14.3 @ 95mph with spinning tyres in my stock R33 (air filter and cat back exhaust)... With good traction off the line (slicks as kabab suggested), a high 13 is very possible.

Low 13? No chance in hell.

Yeah but thoes mods would barely increase any power..

I still think low 13's are possible, most of you guys who go out have really stiff suspension to which doesn't help at all either...

Also another factor GTR's can run thoes time with abit more power stock which the elf would make up for and with slicks on stock suspension your 60ft's should be similar if not better.

not much differance? go learn what mods do to a car kabab.. i woulda thought u'd have half a clue considering how long u been on forums. Exhausts.. especially on turbo cars help, not just by the better flow but by the inherent boost increase which comes with this better flow etc. So an exhaust is a decent mod for a car. put a stock exhaust on and see how asthmatic your car feels especially top end.

look at all these people with mods tho.... hicks is pulling 13.7 (BEST)

and he's got 14psi, POD, full zorst, FMIC.. all that...

if you can pull a high 13 stock, why spend $2500 on those mods ?

hence my theory of not getting a stocker in the 13s....

    • Can't you put the pistons to TDC and then do the valve seals? Or will the drop down too far to pull them back up?
    • One thing I can tell you is, do it properly the first time. If you encounter unexpected problems just let the car sit for a week or two if you have to get some other parts or figure stuff out.  I'd have said go and use as many OEM parts as possible but since you want to change the turbo later on a custom kit is probably the better choice. Since I have no experience with RB25 just compare parts diagrams and images before buying a line kit and it should be easy to see if it has everything you need. Amayama has very good parts diagrams and part number lists, that is what I used a bunch to figure out what I might need. And don't forget to plan ahead and possibly renew other stuff that's easy to get to while you're in there doing the turbo lines. Happy wrenching
    • Update 4:   Hi all, good news. Engine is running and all the gaskets and seals seem to be working as intended. No leaks so far, even the JB Weld seems to hold. I flushed out the old coolant a few times and put in fresh coolant, not Nissan stuff, I decided to try the Ravenol Protect FL22, they claim it works for a wide variety of JDM cars and the opinions on it by some people were pretty good. And it has the nice poison green color! And man am I glad I bought a coolant system tester earlier this year, vacuum filling works wonders on this engine. I can definitely recommend this to anyone still doing it the old school way. All you need is compressed air supply. Will have to do a small test drive as soon as I can, I removed the gauge cluster again as the tacho needle was still bouncing around a bit but it was much better than before already.  I also found some cracks on all 4 tires inner and outer sidewalls. Apparently these tires should 't be parked on for extended periods or be kept under 0 degrees during storage, which I did not know. Clearly the previous owner didn't look into those details either, he probably bought them just cause they are cool semi-slicks. I'm just wondering how tf I am supposed to reach 30-80 degree tire temperatures on the public road consistenly, these tires were never going to work for my use case. I'll probably order Continental SportContact7 ones as these are the best allround summer tire available right now and I don't think I'll need anything crazier for now. Do let me know if you have experience with various tires and which ones you recommend.
    • You have no idea how many goddamn boxes I received these past three months haha Most have been put to use by now though, luckily
    • Not going to pretend I didn't do a bit of junky work this time around, but mostly due to the fact that some things I am not willing to spend days fixing right now, like wiring. I try to do most things properly the first time around.
