Information On 33 Gts

[nugget666]

just after inforamtion on the rb25de..

would like to get some information on the 33 gts? I will be upgrading from a xf fairmont..

What is the rb25de like on fuel? would the fuel be anywhere near a vx Commo s pack would it be anything near what that uses. newest 6 i have drivin and no what the consumption is..

did a little search and came up with

How many k's to a tank? is around 450km about right?

What are parts going to be like for the car. still dont know this one

Being a non turbo what will insurance be like do they still ask for a bucket load for a non turbo. not sure on this one

Performance wise how would it go compared to the Vx s pack?.

What would the avg 0 - 100 1/4 time be? i found around the 8 second mark? and a low to mid 15 1/4?

any other genral info would be much apreciated

Also am after a non turbo just i can get into the turbo scene and not payout my arse hole with insruance.

I picked my r33 GTS up last week and it's bloody nice

( I haven't driven a turbo'd car before with 15psi or what ever it is that people classify as fast) but, it still goes very nicely..

Fuelwise, I'd say it's pretty good.. but the fuel tank is kinda small so that might make you think you're blowing quite a bit of fuel..

I was never a fan of 33's.. but seeing them in person and having a good long look at them I learned to like them a bit more..

I recon parts would be pretty easy.. i needed new shocks just went down to the local mechanic and he hooked me up.

Don't know any facts and figures though about 1/4's

About 450kms per tank is correct depending on mods and how you drive obviously.

I haven't taken mine on the 1/4 mile or dyno so I'm not sure but stock should be around 90-100 rwkw (142kw at flywheel). The info that you posted about 1/4 mile and 0-100 times are pretty much correct though.

I'm paying $1380 on insurance for a '94 GST Coupe, I'm 20 and have a clean record, the only mods I listed were $2500 rims.

You shouldnt have too much trouble with parts as 33's are very common imports now.

For insurance if you have a misss and a house you will get a discount if you use the same company but if you are under 27 some wont insure you

no turbo will be alot better tho

50 litre tank and you sould get if serviced and looked after you might get it to 10l per 100kw

Get an exhaust and extractors and they sound pritty nice

All i have on my car is HKS Panel filter and 2.5" exhaust from cat back with a 4.5" cannon. 1 resonator in there somewhere and its frigin loud.

[nugget666]

How hard is the RB engine to work on ? are parts exspensive?

I've got a bog stock GTS25 ('93 model) with O2 panel filter, fuel economy out on the highway gets me around 10k per litre (550 - 600 safely on full tank), around town 6ish (300 - 350 safely). BTW you should have a 65 litre tank, not 50 as mentioned earlier.
