hi guys, i'm in the process of choosing a turbo for my r33.

I'm 99% sure that it will be out of two, gt30 or gt2871r.

current mods are zorst, pod, pfc, hd clutch, bov, fmic.

injecters are on the way as is z32 afm.

i brushed off the idea of a hi-flow as in the future i may up-grade internals.

I'm aiming for 250atw or a bit more.

Is the gt30 going to be too laggy for my set-up?

Is the gt2871r in 440hp form going to be enough to get me to 250 without straining?

currently i have 200rwkw from my rb25.

I'm a bit confused after reading the dyno results threads... info overload!!

thanks simon

whats your target budget? how much do u plan on spending on tyres / suspension / diff changes to help get traction? do u want it come to come on like a bitch on heat or dont mind some lag? do u care how it looks in the engine bay?

hi, paulr33.... my budget is about 5g's. i don't really care how the engine bay looks but i'll try to keep it neat. My mate does power coating in melb so that adds a little colour.

I have 19/40/245 on all 4's and would like the car not to be too laggy. What do you suggest i do about the diff?

I thought pinapples and a hicas lock bar but havn't gotten around to doing those yet.

thanks for the help!

r31- thanks for the tip. I'm not sure if i read those or not it gets tiring after so much reading!

chaos- is the t78 water and oil cooled? I read that the garrett bb ones are and was choosing one because of reliability.

    • LOL, when one "money pit" is never enough Noice, and excellent work mate
    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
