Hi All I’m Rene, based in Hamilton NZ and am the owner of a silver 1996 R33 coupe. I bought the car in August 2009 and I am the first owner in NZ. When I first purchased the car, it was a bone stock gts25t automatic with approximately 75,000kms on the clock. From memory I paid about $8,600 from the dealer: Mod History So over the years I have done a few modifications. The first real mod I did was wheels (on stock shocks) and tints: Now this was done prior to finding out about SAU/SDU, meaning I had no understanding about things like fitment, so was rolling round in 4x4 spec for some time.. Eventually I became a bit more educated (thanks to the forums) and started to do things a bit better. Rather than write a novel of the last 13 years of ownership, I thought I’d just add the list of mods: Exedy lightweight flywheel Exedy full face organic clutch Braided clutch line Adjustable whiteline swaybars (front and rear) Znoelli dimple drilled and slotted brakes with performance pads (front and rear) Braided brake lines (front and rear) BC Gold adjustable suspension Hicas lock bar Tomei upgraded fuel pump Genuine Greddy front mount intercooler kit 3” exhaust from turbo back, with 3” bellmouth dump R34 OP6 turbo Mishimoto aluminium radiator ATP catch can and speedflow fittings 17x10r and 17x9f wheels with Falken fk452 all round Innovate mtx range gauges (oil, wideband and boost) Funnily enough, this list was actually composed to add to the classified to sell it, however I just can’t bring myself to do it. Did you say M3 @Dose Pipe Sutututu? Anyway, this brings us to the current day The car now has 105,000ks and is barely used as I just don’t have time and it doesn’t really suit being my daily (as I need something more suitable to visit construction sites). I don’t think I have even driven it in the past 12 months.. Build Direction The plan here is to go for a bit of an OEM+ type vibe, so nothing too extreme. I am also planning to modernise a lot of the vehicle with things like new ECU (decided on Haltech), DBW, cruise control etc. The power will eventually get increased with an end goal of around 280-330kw. I am keen to get a bit more motivation and actually get this car build back up and going again. It may not be the fastest build, but I’ll get there eventually! And then I’m less likely to try sell it..

Hey guys! We're Junsei Auto Parts from Sydney and we remake discontinued interior trim, 1:1 identical to OEM quality. We've been bringing back discontinued interior trim for the R32 and JZA80 Supra.

Drop your suggestions and we'll see what we can do! Check out our R32 parts here: https://www.junseiautoparts.com/collections/nissan-skyline-r32

Replaced two of my power steering lines between the reservioir and chucked a seal kit in the PS pump. Now I have no Power Steering. The Hicas diagnosis comes up as Error 22 - Steering angle sensor. My question is, is the Steering angle sensor the clock spring? My car is a series 2 r33 GTST with no modifications to the steering system. I still have Hicas and the stock steering wheel.

G'day peeps, My name is Bill, I've recently acquired a series 2 96 R33 gtst. A quick intro about myself, I started off vehicle ownership with an RX4 coupe back in the mid 90's, built and modded it to a respectable 135rwkw in n/a form, was pretty quick and p plate legal. Drove that for around 5 years, also had an RX2 coupe I was building at the same time that was never finished. In the early 2000's I was moving homes to somewhere that didn't have much garage space so I sold off all the rotaries and bits and pieces I had. I then thought I would be responsible and drive a normal looking car, so I bought a vtss ls1 6spd commodore. Did some minor mods to it, zorst, intake, wheels, low, and remap. Drove that for over a decade and finally came to my senses and decided to buy another japper. I was initially looking into RX8's but quickly realised the engines where rubbish. I started to think about what else I could get that was rwd and decently powered and settled for a 2001 adm S15 200sx. I did the usual mods one does and ended up with a decently quick 218rwkw street/track car. Did a few track days and was having a blast. I wanted to do a phillip island day so I joined SAU and did the June 14 track day. It was going well and managed to do a 1.58 in my second session. Car had a few more seconds in it easy. I missed the 3rd session as I was gas bagging with others and lost track of what was going on. I went out in the 4th session and tried to go a bit too hard, too early at the end of the first lap and ended up going off on the inside of turn 12 and slamming the flag marshalls tyre barrier. This was the end of the S15. The S15 was then stripped and sold off. With the proceeds I was able to buy and mod my new ride which is a clean R33 GTST. It was mechanically 100% stock other than coilovers and nismo cat back but the previous owner liked cosmetics and did a fair bit to the body. Photos coming.

R33 gtst Do-Luck chassis bracing kit. This looks like a roll-cage but isn't, it serves the purpose of stiffening up the rear part of the car. Same thing as this http://www.jdmautolink.net/2019/01/do-luck-rear-tension-set-bcnr33bnr34-05.html In my discussions with a Senior Inspector from Qld Transport, this does not require certification/mod plate as per his email " In reference to your Rear Tension Set I have done some research and I agree that it is not ROPS and as long as it does not affect the ability of the vehicle to comply with an acceptable level of occupant protection and comfort therefore with the padding you have applied and providing the device does not obstruct passenger access or headspace then I see no issue. " It is LIGHT so, can post anywhere in aus at your cost, or pickup in Brisbane. $375 + any postage cost, I estimate around $30-40 to most delivery areas.

Hey guys, I've recently manual swapped my RB25DE Skyline and have put a RB20E gearbox in. The RB20E gearbox is out of a series 1 R33 and my R33 is a series 2. Since doing the swap, I've noticed my speedo is reading just over double and the odometer is rolling the ks over faster. I have kept the original auto cluster in for now untill I can source a manual one. Could this be because of the transducer/speedo sensor? If so, which one would I need to get to get an accurate speed? An RB20E as this is what the gearbox is, or a RB25DE? Or could the issue be something else entirely? Cheers

Hie skyline enthusiast! The names Sean and im from Malaysia. Been lurking in the forum for a while now, just decided to create a topic to share with you guys regarding my project and updates. A teaser of my car just out from paint.

Hi guys a recently purchased R33 Gtst automatic is driving normally some days then it'll just completely lose responsiveness but once stopped the key will start the car as if nothing had just happened. if anyone has experience with this issue that would be extremely helpful.

Hi everyone, i Need to replace my Front Lower Ball Joints. I got the old ones out of the FCA and now i‘m having a Hard Time to get the new ones in. i measured the diameter of the FCA, which is 40,3mm. The new Ball Joints are 41,3mm. The Supplier confirmed that These are the Right diameters. i cooled down the Ball Joints and heated up the FCA. They still won‘t fit in (using a hydraulic press), which doesn‘t suprise me Because of the 1mm oversize. How did u manage to get these in?? car is a 33 gtst.

Original, Never boosted and accident free M-Spec, with import papers. Have Original Keys + 2 spare keys i made. M-spec front grill which was an optional upgrade. Serviced every single 5,000kms. Tha paint is in excellent condition for a car of its age, has been polished and buffed to resurface that brilliant shine, however stone chips on the front bar and bonnet lead me to re-spray both the front bar and bonnet. (The factory black colour is a one tone black, this makes it possible to achieve an identical colour match to the rest of the paint. - trust me, i made a big deal about this before any painting happened). All receipts for mods and services have been kept. -New brakes, both discs and pads (even reconditioned caliper internals for smoother and responsive braking) -New tyres all round -Splitfire coil packs -18inch Speedy Racing wheels (weigh 6kg each) -Excedy heavy duty clutch -BC fully adjustable coil-overs (set to just below standard height, the front lip is scratchless) -Greddy hybrid front mount intercooler (Standard intercooler also included with sale) -Greddy Turbo timer -Tanabe Hyper Medallion Turbo back exhaust with stainless steel muffler (Reputable for its quiet yet aggressive note and its impressive Torque and power gains - Original turbo to cat piping included with sale) -Apexi air intake -Mongoose alarm -Sony Explode deck with convenient USB front port -Really crisp Kenwood speakers and twitters (wiring for sub and amp still intact) -Clear Nismo side indicators (original indicators also included with sale) An all round outstanding car, drives so effortlessly, so original and Complete. Great and bloody expensive mods, still delivering that 'stick to your seat' type of acceleration and power whilst maintaining its standard original quality. I am happy for any inspection however I kindly ask if your interested in some of the cheaper skylines, looking to spend and restore it then please skip mine. Price = $13900.

Rear passanger shock leaks the car has rego till September, happy to sell with or without rego though there's no road worthy. the car needs to be towed away. will knock the price down if you dont want rego or the wheels. ( will need to byo wheels ) drop and engine and go, or maybe part it out. either way this could be the one for you..
