i disagree with the bodykit comment, whilst i like 33s, im finding it hard to find a kit for my 33 that doesnt make it look like anus, however im a big fan of vertex kits on the 32, it may be common but thats because it looks amazing.

cheers semo

oscar you sound a bit scared to backup your words against tridentts car :P i doubt you guys could ever have a race anyways but you are both in woop woop surely you have a private road somewhere :)

leech - I humbly beseech thee to fight thy own wars..................your black whale is the same as mine, so go you good thing.

woop woop??????????? Oh yeah____thats right, Canberra is the centre of the universe [unless you follow Ash].

And this 32 vs 33 thing, we are really talking about the classic Elle McPherson vs Jen Hawkins aren't we??

I mean Elle was damn good, still is OK, but she can't stay that way forever.......so along comes Sophie to continue the good work.

I can see parallels here.

Tri , Leigh :huh: and Snoozey

How many time's do you need to be spanked b4 you learn.

Yeah reel me in - u got me with your posts! Hiding, Senile etc...

I am humble as mine is still off the road atm but i will share some humble pie with you in the near future..... ;)

Edited to include Shaun who's stiring it up!!!

Mate, Elle is great and will always be that way - just like the 32, Sophie will however age soon enough....

Leech, I'm not scared of lining anything up, 33 or otherwise - so bring it on :blink:

No turbo skyline is a "slow car". A slow car might look like the Mira. So your car should be "acceptably fast" or "very sporty" never ever "slow" and "A to B trasport". If you want A to B buy a Camry. :O

Also, for the record, there is no such thing as a "bad" skyline, they are either good, or better.

ARM85's 33 tought me how a simple bodykit can transform a whale into hotness. If you guys havn't seen it yet you'll undertstand when you do. Its a pretty happy moment.

What about GTR's???? What would be your pick, an R33 or R32.....

I could maybe see a nice Purple R33 SIII GTR V-Spec in my driveway - maybe...

ok time has come WSID and wakefield I am up for it, there is a trake day at the end of the month, I am already racing a 180 with an rb conversion polish storms brother, so WSID in 2 weeks boys bring it oh ill have slicks by then.

Jayce can i borrow the slicks mate...

should pull 12.9's then

Slicks may be available to the highest bidder soon...only joking! Actually,they're proping up my 32,which shall be in hiding for a period of time. Once said period of time is up,feel free to come and see me;show'n'shine,or just go-time-then I'll add my real response to this poll...despite my (obvious) bias towards the 32 shape,we're all 'Liners,so:Subaru,Toyota,Holden,Ford,Mazda,BMW et all-you have been warned!

why cant we all settle this over some sympathy tea?! skyliner at war aganst a fellow skyliner, THIS IS MADNESS!!!

Besides everyone knows r32 GTR is the fastest :(

**Comes back to stir the pot, even more ;) **

Agreed, but 32 gts-t's are the slowest :lol:

In stock form, otherwise it is all a matter of "how deep your pockets are"

Next Question.............

How many more 32 GTR's blew their engine last year, or had to get them rebuilt, compared to the 33's? :)

So when are you planning to blow the motor on your R33 GT-R Beau?

When you schedule it can you please let me know when it's going to happen so I can be there with a camera to capture that magical moment of pride that I'm sure is going to be all over your face?

"I could maybe see a nice Purple R33 SIII GTR V-Spec in my driveway - maybe..."

I'm with you, a SIII R33 GTR would be my top pick [yes even over an R34].

Actually had the offer of such a beast with a blown motor [as in f#@ked] a while back, but alas the piggy bank was looking a little sad........I can only assume it went to a better home?

    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way.
