Housemate just got home from a dyno with his '33 gts-t

[rexhunta]

With a 3' exhaust, pod filter, 10 pound boost, walbro 255l/h and rather large front mount, running on pump 98 octance, made a comfortable 268 rwhp on it's 3rd run, and backed it up with a 266 on his 4th run at same pressure.. not bad for just a few add-ons

[spanishricer]

That's not bad, especially considering he was running only 10lbs of boost. Any reason why he didn't raise it up a bit?

[slow s13]

if hes got the stock turbo with the plastic or what have you compressor section if you turn it up much past 10 it will blow apart

[Eikon]

Did you say "pump 98 octane"?

Where are you? I thought we had good octane levels here at 93 octane.

[wickedpelf]

some gas stations sell "race fuel" at the pump..like i live in WV and theres a little mom and pop gas station at bottom of mountain goin up to hawks nest...they have a big sign up that says "RACE FUEL ON PUMP" but its really expensive like 3$ a gallon last spring...

[nismofly]

i bet hes in japan, which i totally didnt know

hes probably talking about a r33, not a 240 with an rb25

sounds nice by the way

[crzycav86]

I'm gonna say he's in Australia.

[nismofly]

well i dont know if you knew before this of if you were just guessing, but youre right...his webpage has .au in the address

[crzycav86]

Yeah... I didn't know he was from australia... but the houseMATE thing gave it away...

[nismofly]

well im at college and i have a roomMATE, but i guess you have a point

lol

[rexhunta]

I'm in Australia and it was an R33..

We have 98 octane at our fuel stations off the pump.. it's awesome, but expensive..

Didn't raise the boost as it was a hot day, and in a hot dyno room..

The R33 stock turbos have the ceramic impellor, which means after 14 pound they **** themselves.. so he just wanted it set for something easy..

Cool but we need some pics and videos to drool over.

lol

and what about the whole point his name is "rexhunta"

[420_240sx]

Here in Turlock, CA I think it is the 76 that sells 100 octance fuel, its 4.99 a gallon. : \ but 87 here is like 2.14 too, terrible

[Z Style]

I know a lot of gas stations here in Michigan have 100 octane out back.

[rexhunta]

at our local (45 minutes away ) race track... 2 laps before he came off and hit a puddle of sloshy clay..

[Dirtylou]

It looks like he ran through a shelf of skeet buckets.lol I need an R33.

[rico05]

A local guy just got a purple R33 GT-St. GT-R seats, gutted, lexan windows, magic boxes, but all stock motor/turbo/drivetrain. First Skyline I have seen in person I might add. I never realized how sexy R33s are in real life! Pics do not do them justice.

Sweet car to park next every night!

Yep, theres some stations in my hometown (wheeling) that sell 101 and a few here at school (morgantown) that sell 98
