Another vote for MSY here. They are usually the cheapest. I bought/had a computer built by them at the Clayton store. I'm guessing I was very fortunate as I was served by an American fellow called Steve who was incredibly helpful. I know a fair bit about computers but Steve's advice and direction in designing a computer for my purpose was invaluable. I was expecting little assistance from them in regard to choosing my set up. I thought it would be a matter of give them the build details and they build it but I was pleasantly surprised by the advice and input received. The only thing is I believe that my experience may have been an exception rather than the rule as I have heard from others that the staff can be not overly helpful at times. Anyway, I would suggest speaking to Steve at the Clayton store if you need a computer built as I am very happy with my purchase.

Thanks heaps! You're the best

I think I have found my new desktop wallpaper. If a high res version could be posted I would be much appreciative.

My understanding is that in 2000 (approx Aug-Oct) Nissan released an update for the R34 GTR: -V-Spec became V-Spec 2 and got carbon bonnet, updated interior, aluminum pedals, larger rear rotors, clear front and side indicators etc -Non V-Spec was still non V-Spec yet got the updated black cloth interior, aluminum pedals, slightly larger rear rotors, clear front and side indicators etc but no carbon bonnet, no front or rear diffusers, slightly softer suspension (I think?) and an MFD that didn't include intake and exhaust temps. Therefore it is possible to get a 2000 model GTR V-Spec (from Jan to Aug-Oct) or GTR V-Spec 2 (Aug-Oct onward) Also I believe that the front V-Spec diffuser was a factory option for non V-Spec GTR's. EVOIV is also right regarding the spacing 0-3,000rpm on the tacho. This makes me think that the GTR in question is not a genuine v-spec or has had a dash swap (I cant see if it has the rear diffuser, intake and exhaust temps on the MFD). Ultimately the best way to check a GTR is buy using Nissan FAST and running the VIN. There are too many people out there fiddling GTR's and claiming things they shouldn't.

Made in 1970 so just squeaks in.

Unfortunately I had a run in with a pole and have damaged my pride and joy. I am now looking to sell it all and move on. At this point I would prefer not to part out the car as I really don't have the space or tools. The car is as stated a 1997 Nissan Skyline R33 GTS25T with 149***kms ENGINE: Apexi power FC GCG hi flowed turbo (450hp) 3 inch exhaust including recently installed Catco cat and stainless steel 80mm Trust PE2 catback Tomei 256 poncams 550cc Sard injectors Bosch 040 fuel pump Hybrid gt spec FMIC (piping damaged in places but core untouched) Z32 air flow meter with Tomei plug (maybe damaged but unsure) OS Gieken cam gear alloy catch can Exedy 5 puk heavy duty clutch installed 5,000 kms ago Lightened fly wheel Front and rear strut braces Splitfire coilpacks Always used motul oils sevice at least every 5,000km's INTERIOR: Apexi AVC-R black edition Blitz FATT turbo timer Auto meter colt gauges (boost, oil and water temp) Alpine head unit (not sure of the model but its good) Focal front and rear speakers 2 Alpine V12 amps Alpine type R 12IN sub (removes in about 1 min) Nismo gear knob EVERYTHING ELSE: Tein fully adjustable coilover suspension Tein adjustable castor rods 19in Starcorp fusion wheels (much wider at the back but i cant remember exact dimensions) Federal 595 SS rubber all round. (235 front with 80% tread left, 265 rear with 98% tread left) Nismo clear side indicators Registered until July 2010 ADDITIONAL: I have most the stock parts and others still for this car including - injectors - coilpacks - gear knob - ECU - AFM - cams - fuel pump - indicators - cam gear - and probably a few others that I have forgotten Stock parts I don't have are: - exhaust - wheels - suspension - intercooler Although in the photos there is no picture of the front bar or the Hybrid GT intercooler i do have both of them. The front bar is badly damaged and one of the sets of lights is broken. The intercooler core is fine. I will update with more pictures in a day or two. I also have a few other random parts lying around that I am prepared to throw in including Apexi and Blitz pod filters, brake pads, Genuine Nissan car cover and other bits that I will post up as I find them. I have receipts for this car adding up to well over $20,000 At the moment I am looking for $7,000 neg. Contact details: Steve Email: [email protected] Mob: 0417357502

This may be what you are looking for.

-rear view mirrors $30 each Does that refer to the wing mirrors. If so I would be happy to take the passenger side wing mirror.

When I last got a major defect, went to Vicroads with my RWC and the lady didn't even bother checking the car just cleared it on the spot. I can't help but think that the fact it was 4.30pm on a Friday had something to do with it.

Just beautiful NYTSKY!

My bet is that you have a standard ECU which will retard timing and run rich when you try and push boost past 10psi. You need an aftermarket computer or a Apexi SAFC or similar at the very least.

That sucks mate. I live in the same area and have seen your car many times. Will keep an eye out. I thought parking on the street in our area was safe.....

I believe they were an option on at least series 2 cars. I don't have a wiper on my 97 R33 GTS25T either

Dunno if these are 19" or 20" either way the offset is good and may provide you with a point of reference. I think 20's are too big even for street shoes. 18's are probably the best performance wise and the tyres are cheaper too. I do like 19's on 33's as I myself have them but have come to realise that 18's would suffice.

I would say it is definitely a s2 grill.

When my old man had his R34 GTR we had a concern over a noisy tappet type sound but was told by multiple workshops it was just the solid lifters that the GTR has but GTS-T's don't, and that it was completely normal. I must say the RB26 even in R34 guise did not seem to be a particularly refined engine but all is forgiven when the driving experience is considered.

According to the link it is 72 litres http://nissanskyline.6te.net/GTR33_spec.htm

I'm pretty sure the Type M-R is different from your regular 40th Anniversary. It has a 206kw instead of the normal 184kw. I don't know if it is due to tuning or if it is a R34 NEO motor. There may be other differences but I don't know what they are?

Spotted that same car at officeworks carpark Chadstone. Looked awesome with the darker wheel colour.

I had owned my car for less than 24 hours when I stepped out of work to see someone had thrown a shopping trolley into my front guard denting and scratching it badly. I was so pissed off. It would of been worth it if i could of seen them doing it. Had to get the whole guard resprayed. A couple of months ago I noticed a large graze above the the rear wheel arch. A lot of it buffed out but a lot didn't. Someone obviously doesn't know how to park. Didn't see it immediately so still don't know where it happened. Too many low life creeps out there!!!

Sad and disappointing to hear but I agree 4admrn in that why do they have to commit suicide in such a way as to inconvenience thousands of others and expose innocent bystanders to the trauma of such a gruesome death. I know it may seem insensitive and rude but surely suicide can be achieved in a much more dignified and discrete manner. Ultimately prevention is the key. I keep hearing how Australia has a massive problem with suicide particularly amongst young males. Surely there has to be someone these people can contact before making such a fateful decision.

I'm pretty sure its a RB20E. Have only ever heard of a few of them. Understandably very rare for a good reason.

You will need: Z32 AFM Injectors (S15 440cc would be fine) You may also need: HD adjustable actuator (to stabilize boost) HD clutch You may want to consider: Tomei Poncams suspension and brake pad upgrades

I was at the corner of Dandenong and Warrigal Roads on Saturday night. Lined up next to WRX and and a white R33. Lights went green and the white R33 launched hard with wheels spinning. WRX and I take off normally then cop car comes out of nowhere and pulls the white R33 over. It doesn't pay to play.
