  1. WTB: R33 Flush Boot Lid

    Doubt I'll have much luck, but I'm going to ask anyway.

    I'm keeping an eye out for a flush boot lid for 33. Don't really mind if it's metal or fibreglass, can be any colour and happy to repair if has cracks etc but not interested in something warped.

    Prefarably after one in Qld.

  2. Hi everyone,

    Thought I'd post up a little build thread for my daily as figured it will be a good place to keep everything together and see a timeline of how it progresses.

    So I've moved up to Qld and really wanted an R32 for a daily but after looking for a few months with no luck finding anything that hadn't been played with and complete shit I gave up and decided to look at 33's.

    This was the first one I looked at and though I hadn't planned on buying it after inspecting it I would of been silly not to snap it up.

    Got it for a very reasonable price with rego and a RWC. 150 thous kms on the clock, guards haven't been rolled, body is super straight, all the panels line up, the doors open and shut nicely, has good condition carpet and seats, no cracks in the dash, engine is nice and healthy (and stock woo), no rust or noisy/crunchy driveline.

    It's a 93 RB25det manual, the only mods it has is a boost gauge, head unit, exhaust and a T piece though it's still running factory boost, boot lip, rims and weathershields.

    I have a 180sx which is my non rego'd track car so I'm not looking for any power upgrades for the 33 just after a nice looking streeter that I can enjoy so I'm pretty happy with the base I have to work with :)

    I'm slowly mulling over what rim/stye etc I'm going to go with, I think 33's get a really bad wrap due to how they get styled sometimes and are a huge bag of potential (having owned 2x 180's, 2x s14's, 2x 33's, 1x silvia, 1x 2jz soarer and 1x aw11 mr2 I believe I can say the 33 is a very underrated car)

    Anyway the first thing I've done is bought a very hektic shift knob, I know I need to calm down with my crazy mods jumping right in the deep end :P The one that was in there was some horrid autotechnica monstrosity.

    Then I bought a new window reg for my passenger side drivers window, I pulled the door trim off and found that one of the plastic wheels had broken and it would keep coming off the runner. I've never replaced a reg/armature before but much too my delight it was a pretty straightforward process only took about an hour and a half from door trim on to removing the window and old reg to fitting back in, now it works good as new!

    Next on my list I ordered a set of custom plates, I've never had custom plates before so am pretty excited to own a pair now, I was driving along one day and thinking how people and myself call 33's HMAS ships in references to the royal navy's fleet and decided to get HMA533, I checked and it was still available so immediately put them on layby :D

    Anyway that's all I have really for now, once I tick something else off the list I will post it up.

  5. I'm looking to probably sell my R33 if anyone is in the market for one. Black, manual, rb25det, registered, no defects, coilovers, advan rims, all electrics etc. 11k ono.

    Reason for sale is moving to another state soon and will probably just pick something up there.

  6. Its not uncommon for plugs to get burnt in cars, bad connections in the terminals cause them to heat up and warp/bubble the plug, always make sure plugs fit nice and tight and not flopping about otherwise it will cause you more grief down the track.
