R33 GTR - I still have a big grin - GT-R Register - Official Nissan Skyline and GTR Owners Club forum

Crosssr · 15th July 2008, 05:21 PM

Well the upgrades I have purchased over the last few months/years have now been fitted. I took my R33 GTR to see RK Tuning, and I can confirm my car has now been transformed!!!!

The car was stage 1 tuned and had been mapped by GT-Art after Miguel (Newera) had sourced it for me. Having had the car for a couple of years I was beginning to crave some additional power. The target power was 500bhp atf, on went the new Garrett 707160-9 turbos, along with various other parts.

Ron arranged for the car to mapped at Engine Advantages. Both RK and I were amazed by the power the car produced and lets just say 500bhp was achieved (I’ll post a copy of the dyno reading shortly).

Still getting used to the increased power and torque, and the Nismo twin plate clutch does take a little practice, but I have a huge grin on my face.

Special thanks to RK Tuning for all their help, and to Engine Advantages for a great job with the mapping. Also thanks to Josh (PSI Supply) for all his help with getting me the correct turbos, and to Miguel (Newera) for sourcing me a great car (and for also getting other various parts to me so quickly).

Can’t wait to get on track.

A few photos: The Ring 2006

Just polished

Nice one mate.

Remember, I was in my blue 33 and we passed in opposite directions outside the GP circuit at the 'Ring?

I was actually admiring your car in the Newera sold stock!!!

500hp now that's a result!! What were you running before then? 385ish?

beutiful GT-R! any engine shots? I love the SE37 wheels also, what size and offset?

Nice to see the car again - and good to hear you're enjoying it even more now

Do you think you could perhaps fit a smaller front plate next time?

The police aren't so keen on the small number plate so I have reverted to a normal size plate

The Ultima belongs to one of my friends, we built it in 2005. The Ultima is a very different driving experience compared to my GTR.
