hi guys, i have a 96 series 2 r33 GTS-t. Currently, it has a aftermarket front mount intercooler. However, due to insurance, i have to change it to the stock intercooler. My only other modification is a pod filter and a muffler. As such, is changing over to a stock intercooler drop the performance much??? (sorry if i sound like a noob, as i am one.) thanks charith

first of all, thanks to all those helped me with my enquiry previously. I ended up getting the manual '96 R33 GTS-t. I got it checked out by stateroads and it came with a pretty decent report. However, due to insurance purposes, i have to change the aftermarket front mount intercooler to the stock intercooler. The only other modification i have is a pod filter and a muffler. Since the car is fairly stock, would changing to the stock intercooler drop the performance a alot? Also, i was planning on getting it done at ReCustoms in keysborough, but does anyone know of other mechanics around the area that are good with skylines? thanks a lot. charith

okay, im contemplating getting a 1996 R33 Gts-t or a 1997 or 1998 Honda Prelude VTIR. The skyline seems to be misfiring a bit, but everything else seems good. It also comes with 1 year warranty (prob just mechanical). The skyline's done 99,000 kms, and the Prelude's done 170,000 km. The prelude seems to be running fine. My issue is that for the next one year, i need to choose the car that is not going to give me any problems what so ever. I prefer to have the skyline, as it is powerful and a very nice drive. However, I understand that skylines can be a bit of a money pit. I dont mind putting money into it after a year, but until then, i can't afford to do anything for it except doing its regular servicing and insurance. What do u guys think? Get the skyline with the lower Kms with misfiring but with 1 year warranty or the prelude with the high kms, seems to be running fine and no warranty? Thanks in advance. P.S. i understand that as this is a skyline forum, you guys obviously have a love of skylines, but an objective, unbiased opinion would be appreciated

hi guys, i'll thank in advance, and also apologise in advance as this question may sound stupid. However, i'm pretty new into the world of skylines. im buying this particular skyline (1996 R33 GTS-T): http://www.tradingpost.com.au/Automotive/U...ckToResult=true it says in the description that it has anti-lock braking, im assuming theyre talking about ABS. I was under the assumption that skylines didnt have ABS. Any help would be appreciated. thanks.
