    Do what you want, it's your car and money. If you're after likes, you're on the wrong forum. Instead of being Internet hero, do something useful and write up a "how to install HKS CAMP kit into R33"

    But isn't this for the US versions? Or are the US versions the same worldwide?

    Not sure but the light turning off after a few seconds might be normal.

    On my wagon, I changed out the Momo M3 (1 year old) to Hankook K120 (Ventus V12 Evo2). $160 per tyre fitted via tyresales (very easy to use, got them fitted by Subaru service centre on 30th Dec). Much quieter and nicer ride compared to the M3. Grip wise I haven't pushed it but it has plenty. 320 wear rating so should last quite a few kilometres. The Momo M3 were so noisy and harsh, but expected from an $80 tyre.

    If you're saving up for an R35, I'd avoid spending money on your current car. Put an automatic transmission cooler on to increase its lifespan. Off topic, what's worse than automatic "triptonic" paddle shifters? CVT simulated gears (defeats the whole purpose of CVTs, unless you're engine braking downhill I suppose).

    Kind of like paying $700 USD for a blank Nismo key lol.

    I'd hit up JOC/JHC with the VIN. But that car looks in awesome condition and is probably a good buy.

    Nope. Side question: does the R33 have a check engine light? On my R32, I swapped the ECU with a bad one and that cat temp light was flashing. Perhaps the R33 is doing the same?

    AFM; check your airbox.

    Getting the codes looked at should show the issue (since these cars have lots of sensors the ECU looks at). Although the battery thing is probably CCA (cold cranking amps) not Volts, they would be 12V batteries. Do you get any lights turn on when it doesn't work properly?
  11. niZmO_Man
    I think that's for off-road (i.e. track days, gymkhana, drag nights, etc.).

    Hi, not sure what your question is, but I'd avoid spending money on engine and save up for a turbo R34. You can probably find an RB25DE replacement engine fairly easy and relatively cheap.

    That's why it's important to re-read what you type before hitting that submit button. Once it's on the Internet, it's on there forever.

    My front pipe has a proper dent, about 5x the size of yours. I didn't notice it until about a year later lol.

    Considering you created three threads for issues, don't expect further help with attitude like that. Remember, the people on here helping you are regulars and will remember you.
  16. niZmO_Man
    Easy just to try it yourself. A/C compressor will be used less.
  17. niZmO_Man
    Rare; expensive; depends how badly you want it.
  18. niZmO_Man
    Contact K-Mac, see if they have off the shelf springs for your car.
  19. niZmO_Man
    What dent? Lol

    No point comparing halogen low beam to LED high beam then aye, why not post both or swap one and leave one halogen Oh and look up foreground lighting and how it affects your vision while driving. And there are other factors that affect output, e.g. hazed lenses, which R33s tend to have. Clear them up and throw in some Osram NBU/Narva Blue Plus bulb and then save up for a retrofit. If LEDs did work, I'd happily recommend them, but unfortunately they are not an upgrade. And yes the R32 projectors are atrocious. This thread is talking about R33 reflectors though, which don't have a cutoff shield to reduce glare.

    Price and pictures will help sell your car.
  22. niZmO_Man
    And your pictures prove your lights have heaps of glare and foreground Yes, there are H4 LED bulbs that try to mimic the halogen output, even Philips has one (not legal, 5,000 hrs rated lifespan and very expensive). But this thread is about H1. Adjustable ones are obviously good to get the best out of them, but at the end of the day you're trying to shove a different set of optics into something that wasn't designed to handle them. https://images.philips.com/is/image/PhilipsConsumer/12953BWX2-APP-global-001?$jpglarge$&hei=700

    I had a picture of the bits of bolt and the turbine pulled from the cat somewhere, lost it by now.

    I'd run a minimum 265 on a 9.5 but I don't like stretch, and like the sidewalls to work as designed.

    If you're having issues with the forum upload, you can always use an image hosting site like tinypic, imgur, photobucket, etc.
