Hi Guys,
I have just recently picked up a 1995 series 1.5 R33 GTS-T manual and I couldn't be happier. I've wanted an r33 since I was a small boy and never really thought I'd get the opportunity to actually own one. In my home country they where so rare that I never even saw one in the flesh, only ever seeing one R32 GTR and an R34 GTR.
My car is pretty stock and just about to hit 200 000KM. Shes got a Blitz return flow front mount and pod cooler, blitz coilovers with GTR camber arms and splitfire coils and a Mishimoto radiator. The body is in farily good condition with not much rust, a slightly torn front bar and pretty bad paint with massive seams in the clear. I've slowly been getting every mechanical issue sorted and so far have replaced the radiator and thermostat, turbo gaskets and manifold studs. I've pulled the rear lights to bits, cleaned and polished and resealed them and added new seals to stop the leaks as well as pulled out the boot body seal and re-sealed to stop the boot filling with water.
Cosmetically I've painted the plastic centre console trim, designed and 3d printed a triple gauge holder to sit under the aircon controls and replaced all the broken vents.
I got some fresh wheels at 18x9.5 +22 square and shes sitting pretty. The wheels fill the guards perfectly and so far no rubbing. The fenders have been rolled and I think for my height I have to pull the guards a bit just to eliminate any potential rub when driving spiritedly around my terrible roads.
I've already learned a heap from this forum and am very grateful for all the knowledge.
Thanks for having me!
