here it goes, couple months ago went up to sydney with my parents to a dealer coz i was interested in a skyline, everything started off well and i ended up getting one. then the problems started, i took the car up for a service to get the brakes checked coz they were squeching (spelling) etc basic work on a service, pick up the car and i swear it hadnt moved from the spot i parked it when i left it there. i let things go for a little bit then my clutch burnt out, so under warranty i took it back up there to get it replaced, they then said it doesnt come under warranty i was really confused bout this and they said it comes under wear and tear so im thinkin rightio what does warranty actually cover, and they could not give me a proper answer, so i got the clutch replaced and they ended up charging me 600 for the clutch, 400 for labour, 90 for 2 front bushes and 45 for rear main oil seal which all should have been under warranty, my parents argued and they would not let us take the car until we paid for it, a problem we experienced later on was my alarm was playing up so i asked for the receipt so i could get it checked out, they refused to give me one. driving from sydney to home ( wollongong) i felt something wrong with my clutch and gearbox, this was 8pm at night after waiting 2 days for my car when it was supposed to be ready that afternoon, i took my car to my mechanic ( which is what i shoulda done 1st up) and he told me they had not changed the thrust bearing so we fixed that, then he looked at me with a real confused face and i asked what was wrong, he said theres no oil in the gearbox, im like wtf, when they drained my gearbox oil up at the dealer they hadnt replaced it!!!!!!!! like how dont u replace it???? u cant just forget that!!! but lucky enough i only drove it 50km till i fixed it so i was lucky in a way. when i took the car up to get checked out originally and explain bout the clutch the guy driving it was thrashing my car so hard i had to tell him numerous times to calm down, he scraped my front bar on the driveway and speed humps, scraped my exhaust and had no intentions of taking it easy. we have complained to the actual dealer owner and he says he has nothing to do with the mechanic even though they both work under the same name, and the mechanic says its up to the dealer owner, so 1 says him and the 1 says the other bloke??? make ur mind up boyz....we have put in a complaint to the fair trade ppl and since then have found out the mechanic has no license for that workshop, and now we have a big advantage on them, and now we r still in the process of doing something bout the money we paid for the services and future problems that could happen to the gearbox.... since that day i have taken my car always to my own performance tuner where he is totally honest with me and has fair prices and i have now boosted the car up more and done few other things that i can be really prowd that hes done a great job... thats jus my experience with the car yard dealer... cheers all. www.freewebs.com/2BNVS_r33

ive also had a similar problem to this, but i checked mine out an an auto elec that i know and he thought it was the alarm that was draining bit too much power from the battery when the light was always flashing. i changed my alarm and since then it starts fine...

strut bars in r33 gtst ?
2BNVS replied to DJ_L3ThAL's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
i found a slight difference when i fitted the strut bar in my engine bay, not alot mind u but a lil bit, picked one up for $160 gives it a bit more of a performance look too i reckon... sway bars not too sure how much there costing atm. cheers -
yer easiest and more cost effective option, get a gts-t saves all the hassles to get it done
-
nice cars but yer not much room under the hood and bit heavy but apart from that i find them quite alright...

im in the process of installing mine so yer im up for competition once its in, im puttin in 2 alpine type r 12'' subs 2 pioneer 760w amps, 1 jaycar 4x100wrms amp, kenwood 300w 6x9''s, apline 160w 6'' splits. so hopefully that will be good to start with but if not i can always progress up the lader and upgrade. cheers...

Hey dude i bought 2 alpine 12 inch subs for 370 each there a good buy and a mad sub considering u have the power to run them, coz they are pretty powerful, i got a pioneer 760w amp for each sub and that goes pretty hard and even that is underpowering them a lil bit. Type s are good too, pretty punchy but not as strong, there cheap as now, seen them goin for 120 bucks for the 12''s.... Not too sure on the eclipse subs but, dont know much bout em.

my discs started to go on me recently, but a very good friend of mine who tunes skylines and other high performance vehicles strongly suggested that i replaced them not machined them, the discs start to get really shinny and have like a glossy look on them, i replaced mine with slightly larger ones.
