Considering the fact that you're not allowed to modify your engine performance in any way, there aren't any methods that are legal for you.

A better, and legal, way to reduce the time it takes you to get from A to B is to learn how to f**king drive first. Walk before you run, dude.

wats the best way to get power in non turbo  r33

if your willing to pull the engine out , put a rb30 bottm end under it and use the rb25de pistons ( give 10.5 - 1 compression ) or get block decked to take it up to 11.0-1 , about the limit for premium unleaded .

a set of cams

an after market ecu or just an apexi safc 2

rb25det injectors 370 cc as against stock 270 cc

extractors with 2 1/4 " or 2 1/2" exhaust

cold air intake

dyno tune

fark u know some good stuff bout skylines

wat bout extractors

I dotn like your tone (if intended sound sarcastic or not).

If some one bother to answer your noob quesion at least thank them, dont reply with 'F' words.

as above, do SEARCH!!!

as for your mods DO A SEARCH!!!

cheers

wats the best way to get power in non turbo  r33

dont bother, ur wasting other peoples time trying to explain to u how its not worth it and wasting ur own time trying to prove otherwise

just as scathing said: learn to drive, earn more money, and get a turbo model

The guy's a new P plater (or otherwise he'd apparently have a GTSt with a "big blower" :) ) so he's not allowed to modify it. If he didn't care about remaining legal, he would have just lived his life-long dream of owning a car that makes offensive noises for the sake of making noise.

ey, what do ya mean by get the block decked??? n how much does this kinda engine work cost?? how hard is it to change the bottom end over to an rb30??? n is it really worth it?? do you have any ideas what kinda figures the engine could pull??

block the deck ie. shave the block, in order to raise the compression.

the price will depend on how deep your pocket is and how much of the work you do yourself.

changing the bottom end is swapping the block - how hard it is depends on what you do, what head you decide to use and what you want to incorporate into it.

you can do a basic build with stock parts and balanced bits, or you can go all out with lightweight pistons, knifebladed crank, shotpeend rods, etc etc etc.... and can be anything up to 5k+

then you'll need an aftermarket ecu, or piggyback, tune, maybe want to consider a brake upgrade.

the key to NA engines is high revs (ie. formula1 and ~18000 rpm) so you'd be looking at fixing the harmonic issues with RB30s (engine cradle) and around 9000 rpm, again depending on your wallet. and also high compression.

advantages are: linear power in the rev range, and a torquey mofo with 3L bottom end, driveability.

in a nut shell its worth is your personal opinion. are you looking at power:money, or uniqueness:money, or 1/4time:money, fuel:money, etc. guestimate would be around from anywhere 170rwkw~200rwkw, even more depending on how far you'd like to go.

i'll be looking at this conversion in future if uni fees decide to be friendly with me - so MAYBE expect a worked NA in future.

cheers

eug

hmmm what i always say is it comes to driving, i know a fair few guyz with r33 and r32 and 180's and i know most of them dont know how to launch at all, if you perfect your driving in your NA it wouldnt suprize me if you stayed equal or even beat them! also dont put a POD unless you use some sort of cold air induction or heat sheild coz it will make it worse.

and exhaust... thats about it, but if you really want to gain a lil KW, maybe cams and upgrade fuel system.

    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
    • You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height
    • yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
