Syncro and selector wear has more to do with the mushy thing attached to the gear stick than the actual gear stick/knob :thumbsup:

That mushy thing is by far the worst bit about my car.

thats what i want to know, i change gear as i normally would, i don't grab the top of it to change gears (i hold it at the bottom) & I don't smash through them either

I love it!!!

My R33 Gtst (RB25Det) has intermittent power problems.

When it gets into the high end revs the power backs off and it doesn't pull the way it should.

Need to get it dyno'd to see what the problem is.

Don't waste your time on a dyno... you can troubleshoot your problems yourself.

Ign issue, fuel delivery issue or flow restriction- etc.

R33 RB25DET, has is got a Front Mount Intercooler???, most common drama if it has is the spark isn't strong enough..

best way to diagnose is pull you spark plug's, re gap them down to .9mm refit and run it, if it clear's the problem then spend up on some good coil pack's..

if you don't wanna spend the money on coil's, just leave the plug gap at 0.9...

as a side note BA XR6 turbo falcon, run's a plug with a .9 gap that fit's the RB25..

Finally got the engine slotted into the GTR on the weekend with the help of Jack. Still a bit left to do but it's a good motivator to have it sitting in there looks pretty sweet too.

I was trying to look at the engine but was unfortunately blinded by Jack's legs...

Damn nice engine mate, you must be happy with that ;)

Cheers guys and yeah I'm bloody stoked just cant wait to get it going now. Coming upto 2 years now since it was last on the road and I wanna drive it lol. Yeah Toffy spent almost $20,000 so far and it's still not running not really satisfying yet but it will be! Guess thats the only problem buying one that's stock you have to spend $$ to rebuild it but then you also have to spend that again on supporting mods. Oh well I knew what I was in for when I bought it and thats WHY I bought it.

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
