  1. I am interested in buying a Bilstein Suspension Setup for my R33 if anyone has some they would like to sell let me know. I would prefer new especially if someone has purchased the Sydney Kid setup and changed their minds or would prefer a firmer ride. I can trade my as new Greddy Coilovers with a cash adjustment either way depending on what setup you currently have to offer. I am located in Adelaide but can organise a courier no problem Please pm me or SMS 0404998591 with details Thanks in advance for replies
  2. R34 bolts are 14mm compared to the R33 12mm so unfortunately they won't fit you will need S14/S15/R32/300ZX or R33 bolts.
  3. All PM's replied and to those who have asked for pics I will be uploading them soon need to find where I put it when I moved house. To those who made offers unfortunately price is firm at this stage I paid $500+ for the unit and they are still that price today and more as you have to buy them in US$ from NZ
  4. All PM's replied. As requested pics of the HKS Twin Power Unit are below I will take pics of the coilovers tomorrow as have to go straight out now for the night:
  5. I have decided to sell my Power FC Datalogit to suit Nissan cars. The Datalogit unlocks many options you can't change with the hand controller and makes tuning, changing maps and tunes a breeze. Once you have seen one of these units in action and their impressive logging capability (especially the advanced knock logging) you will see why most tuners these days use/should use datalogit to tune a Power FC. Fine tuning to decrease knocking becomes easy with the logger showing the actually map cells that are knocking allowing precise adjustments to be made. The datalogit is still in new condition with cable and software ready to go. I also have a really good tune to suit stock turbo with the usual mods and one from my GT30 setup that I can include to give you a good base tune to work with if you have a similar setup. Price - $375 Delivered FIRM Location - Adelaide Contact - SMS 0404998591 or PM me
  6. Considering selling the following parts from my car if someone is interested: R33 Greddy Type S Coilovers 8K Front 6K Rear fully adjustable damper, base height, preload etc complete with the optional Greddy in-cabin electronic damper control kit so you can adjust/fine tune your settings on the fly. All parts are barely used in excellent condition with the EDFC unit coming with original Price - $2200 HKS Twin Power Unit DLI suits most cars RB20 RB26 SR20 and many many more. Unit comes complete with both the Jap and English installation/wiring instructions. I have mislayed the harness but a quick trip to U-Pull-It/Pick a part places would fix that for under $10 to get a connector and loom otherwise you could just use pin crimps like I used to wire it up I will supply for the buyer. These units are the best ignition upgrade you can do converting your ignition to CDI multiple spark and increasing spark power by 2.5 times which is way more than Splitfires. Price - $400 (These units are $800+) Location - Adelaide Contact - SMS 0404998591 or PM me
  7. Selling my High Quality HICAS Lockbar to suit R33 R34 etc. The HICAS lockbar was made locally by an engineering company that makes race cars and as such it is extremely strong, weighs over a kg, unlike the dangerous cheap featherweight ones you find on eBay and even some performance mobs sell. When you bolt this one up to the two bolts at the top you can't bend it forward and back like many cheap ones do as the tubular steel and mounting brackets on them is so thin it just bends (trust me I am talking from experience which I why I went to the expense of having one made up. Price - $180 FIRM Location - Adelaide Contact - SMS 0404998591 or PM me
  8. As requested pics are below sorry about the image quality they were taken shortly after it was fitted in the evening so pics are a little grainy. The system looks identical today if not better as it has been cleaned lol. As you can see in the pics it hugs the cars body well which stops the cops looking and the horrible scraping over speed bumps (ride height dependent naturally)
  9. All PM's replied. Sorry I have had a lot of people asking brand etc I forgot to state in the original post the following: The exhaust was knocked up locally at Exhaust Plus in Stepney as I was sick of all the usual exhausts from wreckers hanging too low, speed bump scrapers and cop magnets, so I wanted an exhaust that flowed well, sounded tuff and didn't hang too low so I got this one custom fabricated. It uses high quality stainless steel along with a Australian made high flow resonator and cannon muffler its all Australian brand name stuff. The exhaust is less than a year old and being stainless its got plenty of life left in it basically a brand new exhaust. I paid $720 from memory I still have the receipt somewhere if I can find it but its a quality system.
  10. Selling my 3" Stainless Cat Back Cannon Exhaust System. The system features a high flow centre resonator giving the exhaust an appealling exhaust note. The exhaust is in excellent condition no dents or anything like that but it is currently in two pieces as I cut it in two to transport when I moved house. The exhaust can still be fitted and joined with the 3" high temp joiner I will supply with the exhaust to get you to an exhaust shop who can weld it back together for $20. Price - $300 Contact - SMS 0404998591 or PM me Location - Adelaide will ship at buyers expense
  11. PICS for those who asked what they look like here is a GTR with the same kit. This kit is relatively rare as its a GTR kit designed to fit GTS-t
  12. Considering selling my High Quality PSI Parts Du Luck R33 GTS-t Rear Bar and Side Skirts as I need to spend money on other things at the moment first unless I can fix my current problem cheap. So if someone is interested in buying it I may let it go I have only just bought them a few weeks back for a total of $846.64 Delivered I still have the receipt for warranty/proof of purchase etc. If selling them I would sell them for $550 Local Pickup saving you $50 on the new price of the parts themselves plus the $246.64 Delivery. Also comes with a big PSI Parts Sticker Contact - SMS 0404998591 or PM me Location - Adelaide will ship at buyers expense
  13. I have just upgraded my interior plastics and have the following R33 Series 2 parts for sale. Full Dash surround complete with all switches (hazard, rear demister, antenna, electic mirrors etc) - $125 Gearstick Surround - $80 Still have the $100 receipt from JIS for this one Drivers Door Window Switches complete with surround - $80 this has been fitted with the S1 switch box with S2 switches so its a straight fit into a Series 1 OR take the whole lot for $250 This is the perfect upgrade for anyone with Series 1 R33 Skylines giving a more modern cleaner look replacing the horrible gel coated S1 interior parts that eventually just erode away and look ugly. These are a straight swap with the drivers window switch box replaces with a S1 one with S2 switches etc. All parts were bought from Japanese Import Spares for over $350 a couple of months ago. I also have a R33 Manual Dash Cluster with 79,000kms on the clock which has had the part surround the dials and warning lights painted silver. Price - $125 Location - Adelaide Contact - SMS 0404998591 or PM me
  14. You can easily tell if you are checking them out even if they don't have the box. The real deal is alloy/metal where it fits to the car with the outer part with the actual mirror plastic. Should also have a sticker saying GD
  15. Thats just the ticket exactly what I am after! Anyone know a distributer or seller in Australia with em? Thanks for the reply absolute perfect I like the lock they have to stop someone using their own steering wheel with quick release!
  16. Well after personally having my old pride and joy stolen a couple of years back, and yes I am still bitter lost $25k plus a years worth of free time spent modding,I have being trying to figure out ways of making the car less stealable. I have heard the old trick of pulling out the fuel pump fuse but im pretty sure the car thieves would be onto that one by now. It doesn't seem to matter what alarm you have they still seem to be able to steal our pride and joy. Now people have suggested removing the ECU but that would take a little too long for my liking to do everytime you park and leave the car. I was considering the use of a detachable steering wheel kit so that everytime you park somewhere a little dodgy you could turn the wheels towards the kerb, engage steering lock and then completely remove the steering wheel from the car. Theory being they could start the car but how the hell are they going to steer it? I was hoping that looking through the window and seeing no steering wheel would be a major put off and lets move onto the next car type of thinking if you know what I mean. Now I am going to buy one of these kits as a deterant but was wondering if anyone has had any experience with them? There are lots of cheap ones floating around but im not too keen on a really cheap one incase it fails and I am left with a detached steering wheel whilst driving lol. I am also wondering if the steering wheel would then have play once fitted? Im guessing the good quality ones would be fine as race cars use similar setups and there is no way they would accept a wobbling steering wheel or play. Does anyone know of a quality brand of kit and how much/ where you buy them? Any other serious ideas people can come up with to stop the thieves? Thanks in advance for your responses
  17. What pads are you currently running in the GT-T? I noticed a massive difference upgrading just the pads on mine if yours still have the stock pads they are absolutely shocking pads compared to even Ferodo Formulas which have a decent friction coefficient for the $125 trade price an end. My car went from feeling worse than my daily in some situations to a very confident powerful stopping force. If you have the money something like the Ferodo DS2500 is a nice pad, a little pricey, but still cheaper than changing calipers, rotors etc. I upgraded my R33 brakes to R34 GT-T ones and was disappointed with the results but it was the pads letting me down as the calipers still had the stock Nissan pads. Once all changed it was a completely different braking experience felt like you were braking in a different car. Also what fluid are you using? You will get a slightly better pedal feel, but more importantly it will not boil!, running decent fluid in a properly bled system its amazing how many people upgrade their rotors, pads, caliper etc and then run $5-$10 brake fluid. I currently run the Motul RBF660 and it has never let me down by boiling on a spirited drive. Yes its $40 a bottle and you really need to buy two to do a proper flush out and bleed but its $80 that can stop you loosing all braking power when they get too hot talking from experience here, luckily I don't mind drifting as I was forced to drift around a tight bend to make it around the corner when the brake fluid boiled on me and I lost all braking power. I look at it as cheap insurance and it doesn't need changing that often so its relatively cheap overtime. If you are still running the stock lines I would keep them did the whole braided line upgrade really wasn't that impressed and after reading autospeeds testing of stock vs braided lines I could see why as the difference in flex is minimal, so minimal its probably impossible to really feel on your foot with a shoes on etc so I ended up swapping back to stock ones R34 ones on my R33 (so they were slightly fresher rubber). http://autospeed.com/cms/title_Braided-Bra...79/article.html For anyone reading this with a R33 the best mod I found (yes im giving away my secret as everyone that has met me with a r33 has heard lol) is to fit a R34 GT-T brake booster to the R33. Its a tight squeeze as its almost twice the size just clearing the clutch master and gives you a massive increase in pedal feel. Anyone who has driven cars that are only a couple of years old and in particular european cars + new hyundais would have noticed they have massive pedal feel with huge braking force. In my job I became curious as to how these cars had tiny rotors, relatively small calipers yet fearce stopping power. Upon popping the hood on them they all had very large booster/servo units which lead me to my mates shed where he has every model skyline and we noticed that the R34 GT-T booster was twice the size of the R33 GTS-t! They are reasonably rare as not many wreckers are wrecking R34's yet so may almost be cheaper to buy one new than wreckers but 100% worth the effort. Combine that with good pads and fluid and you will be very happy with your braking force. I too was chasing the Brembo trail till I read about the relatively small improvement they would give given all the financial outlay and effort.
  18. 3.5" Catback Exhaust System to suit R33 2DR Coupe prefer a quieter system with good quality resonator and muffler. All options considered pm me with details cash waiting
  19. The RB26 Plenum only fits a RB25 with an adaptor plate which can be very expensive to buy/make and really not worth it. JMS are selling a whole kit complete with the GTR plenum for almost $2k! Its not really worth doing as the problem with running the adaptor plate apart from space is the atomisation of the fuel as the GTR plenum positioned the injectors for optimal location to get perfect atomisation into the cylinder. By using an adaptor plate you are spacing the GTR plenum away from the head which in turn positions the injectors further back. A friend of mine did this mod and ended up selling all the bits because he wasn't happy with the results for all the cash he outlayed and had better results from a Greddy Plenum for a RB25 with a bigger throttle body. As everyone else has stated do the smaller mods first based on a cost vs benefit. There are plenty of cheap mods that make a decent difference as everyone has pointed out. For a grand I would buy + fit cat back exhaust, fmic/larger side mount, rear swaybar, bleed valve, half decent front brake pads like Ferodo Formula $125 Trade makes your car feel faster as you can confidently brake later. If your fuel pumps stuff swap that for the brake pads. You wont need bigger injectors if you are running stock turbo You wont need to upgrade plenum unless you are running way more power than stock plus its one more thing to change if you get defected so why bother
  20. I will buy the coilovers pm sent
  21. Sorry was snapped up earlier today on its way to MEL monday.
