R33 Gtst And Gtr Bits
No Crust Racing replied to No Crust Racing's topic in For Sale (Private Car Parts and Accessories)
GTR is leaving me this week so this stuff has to go - make me an offer -
Car has been paid for and is being collected later this week so is now definitely sold. Thanks
-
Car has been inspected and can now be considered sold pending the final exchange of $$ for Key's at the end of next week. Cheers

Rb25 Took 5l On Oil Change Now Hunts
No Crust Racing replied to R33_Rob's topic in General Maintenance
Refer to the tutorial, it's the one I followed. It doesn't take long at all but it can be a bit fiddly to get to the bottom screw on the AAC if you have normal guy sized hands. If you're a big guy then you might need someone with smaller hands to help out. These cars were not designed for Aussies =) Have some carby cleaner on hand and a good stiff metal brush to get in there and clean the carbon off. -
Rb25 Took 5l On Oil Change Now Hunts
No Crust Racing replied to R33_Rob's topic in General Maintenance
The oil sounds unusual but I doubt it's cause for concern unless you've overfilled it heavily, but 200ml is bugger all so don't stress. AAC = Aux Air Control I think, it's a valve at the back of the plenum that controls air on idle, the valve/spring mechanism gets carbon build up and doesn't operate properly. Cleaning is fairly simple, I did this on my Series II when I had a hunting issue and it cured it. AFM can be cleaned with Electrical Contact Cleaner, couple bucks a can, but be gentle as not to damage the AFM wire. Skyline's do have coil packs and over time they degrade and begin to arc across the coil causing all kinds of iginition related incidents. There's a heap of info on here about temporarily repairing them with all degrees of dodginess and some not so dodgy. I'd be checking AAC and AFM first though, easier and quicker to test and less expensive. **EDIT** http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=110431 Link to AAC Valve and Idle Reset Thread -
Rb25 Took 5l On Oil Change Now Hunts
No Crust Racing replied to R33_Rob's topic in General Maintenance
Hunting is a notorious RB problem, can be the AAC or AFM most commonly. As mentioned, oil won't affect it much unless you've totally used the wrong oil. Assuming you didn't knock something during the process I'd say AAC or AFM for starters, bad coils and plugs have also been known to cause idle issues. -
A deposit has been taken as mentioned, the car is not for sale until the potential buyer has had a chance to inspect, hopefully some time the weekend after the coming one, I'll update then. Cheers

Deposit has been taken - pending inspection.

Cheers for the offer but that's a bit lower than I'm looking for.

No Crust Racing posted a topic in For Sale (Private Car Parts and Accessories)
Hey guys, clearing out some bits left over from my 2 R33's Set of stalks - Wipers/Headlights (GTR ones without fog light or rear wiper knobs) - $BEST OFFER Boost Controller, the tap style one listed on these forums in that massive thread - $SOLD RB26 AFM (From R33 GTR) - SOLD Stock Turbo Back Exhaust(S2 GTS25T) Includes turbo heat shield but no cat - $GONE High Brake Light - LED, used in compliance at top of rear windscreen - SOLD Child Restraint brackets and clips - $10 Redline lightweight shockproof box oil left over 2-300ml $10 Stickers 1x Buddy club, 2x Red Line, 1x Unique Auto Sports - $10 the lot SOLD All prices are excluding postage and pics can be arranged if required, I assume most of you know what this stuff looks like but if you insist I'll bust out the digicam. Open to offers for any of it and happy to consider trades for similar priced items or offer me something cool or a total $$ and take it all, so yeah open to whatever - trader feedback shows I'm not gonna scam u guys. Cheers Dan -
This guy is stuffing me around with his finance issues and has not placed a deposit so interested parties can still make offers. Cheers
-
Quick Update: Looks like I should have a deposit this week (and for those interested the agreed sale price is under $34 so I'm serious when I said offers would be considered/discussed) so if anyone is interested you'd best get in quick incase it gets sold! Thought I might also mention that I could also be interested in taking something like a 6-8k track silvia as part payment, when I say track I mean not registered and preferrably with suspension/power mods and maybe a cage also. Body is not important so long as it's not totally wrecked. Cheers
-
Update: Been having a look around at some other GTR's for sale and have decided to adjust the price to 34k ONO based on what I've seen around as I feel this is more in line with the market, also willing to discuss sensible offers. Thanks
-
Yeah there was a bit of a price diff between them but to get a GTS25T to this performance level would cost more than the difference in my opinion, good luck selling yours

Bump

Update: Local car show has been completed, very successful weekend for our club, so car is now for sale again - details as per 1st post.
-
Actually, I'll wait til after a local car show at the end of this month before it gets advertised seriously, gotta represent my club Will replace diff and engine oil between now and then (engine oil will have done 3,000k's soon) and will try to get the car on a dyno locally when I can, will post results. Cheers
-
OK Guys, I've settled on what will be replacing this car so it's time to start advertising seriously (at present it's only here and I haven't exactly been trying hard to part with it ). As mentioned above I'm also open to reasonable offers and transport can be arranged as required. Cheers
-
EVL R33: The suspension is height and damper adjustable as far as I know, I'm not sure of the name of the shocks but I do have closer pics at home that I can PM you tonight if you'd like me to. The car has not been dyno'd as yet, wanting to get down there but finding the time is increasingly difficult with work of late, plus I need to drop the front drive shaft as the local dyno dynamics is a 2wd unit. Compression tested but not leak down tested when I bought the car, figures ranged from 149 to 154 across the 6. Would be happy to have the car comp/leak down tested again (and I encourage people to always do this when buying a turbo car) but this would be at your expense (as it was mine when I bought the car). Cheers
-
Michael - Are you interested in purchasing the vehicle? If not please direct your comments to PM/Email thanks The car most definitely has Xenon headlights and my understanding is such that the headlight and bonnet shape did not change across R33 GTR's. It was also my understanding that Series II's could have them optioned. Should you wish to discuss this further please do so via PM/Email. Cheers

Is Hitting The Rev Limitter Bad
No Crust Racing replied to r33madd's topic in General Automotive Discussion
Looks like I'm the minority here RB26's cost a fortune to rebuild though so I'm not fussed. -

Was just thinking how much a stock ceramic turbo would love the flames -
Is Hitting The Rev Limitter Bad
No Crust Racing replied to r33madd's topic in General Automotive Discussion
The harder you work the engine the faster it wears out... it's pretty basic really. As the guys said, don't make a habit of it, RB's are tough but like all engines they'll break eventually and constant high revving will only accelerate that process. Remember that engines are always in a constant state of degradation - it's only a matter of time before something needs replacing. So rev as hard as your wallet will allow I hit the limiter a few times in my last car (Series II 33) and it still had almost identical compression when I sold it (had it for 14mths and always did the servicing with good parts). If you're going to go hitting the limiter often, at least record it and show us so we can get our kicks without doing it ourselves Cheers -
That's horrible news and I hope you had insurance - as was mentioned above. Good luck on getting your car back mate, I know I'd be crushed if my R was stolen =\
