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

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.

    • Driveline vibration is resolved. I ended up loosening all my engine mount and trans mount bolts, giving it a good shake then retightening everything and it's gone... Let's just say I was surprised that fixed it.  I've been happily driving it around again but unfortunately put zero time into my direct port/constant pressure WMI setup. I'm on vacation next week, so I'll try and finalize it then.  On a different note, I spent all week fuel/ignition mapping 2x 216L V16 engines. Turbo's were burning glycol and we swapped them out for larger units. We also had planned emissions testing on site, so I figured I'd be there the same week to use their instrumentation and massage any emissions issues out if needed. This was a first for me. Fuel management is similar in certain ways to automotive (i.e air density as load variable) but very different in others. It's all PLC based and AFR's are controlled by air and not fuel. They use a control valve between the turbo and air manifold to control pressure which in turn controls AFR's. Due to this, target AFR tables supplied by the OEM are in pressures and not mass which really through me off. They use air pressure vs fuel pressure tables. I also relied on an O2 concentration sensor the emissions team had in the exhaust. Ignition timing was also all over the place and we were losing a fair bit of power. They're now happily sitting at 16-40BTDC depending on load. We were making about 1600kw at 900rpm at 90% load. Engines were running a lot smoother as well.    
    • heh, aint no R32 ever meeting modern targa cage rules unless the driver is veeeery short OP, good luck with the sale, since its already in the land of freedom I'm sure you will find a good buyer.
    • meh, it was a good video, clear about the issue and how he dealt with it. A bit heavy on the RTV and very brave to put an RB in anything without rebuilding it first, but otherwise I thought it was good Dose, I'm not sure that having the pickup forward is a big issue; yes of course the oil could shift under brakes but the sump should never be empty enough for that to be a problem (unless you also have a higher volume oil pump, and that oil can't return from the head to the sump quickly enough)
    • I can donate $100 to your upgrade fund. So long as you can donate the IC7 my way....
    • I'd love a Haltech ECU, and Haltech 10 dash. Was having a chat with Rob and Andy @ Haltech when Rob put one in his MR2. First one I'm kind of interested in too, as you can dim it RIGHT down. Andy was saying bright dashes is one of his peeves too!
