Hmmm, true... well its not my car, but yeah good point on the shroud..... i dont think it has any problems with heat, its got the vented hood... but yeah

was this car purchased from the sunshine coast??? bcoz its exactly the same as "dynamix" off this forum's old car, im pretty sure it is......anyway looks good man.

Yep, spot on dude, was my old ride.. Still looking as good as it was when i sold it..

It used to look like this, some of the older coast cruisers might remeber it looking like this..

Then i did this..

And now i'm wondering what possesed me to waste so much money on painting a car orange.. :turned::D

Hope its all going well for you dude, it was a sweet ride, i miss it so much i'm going to get another r33, this time a GTR though :D

skylines 4 life! ;)

i 2nd that> SKYLINES FOR LIFE>

I only had it for a week, and after i got some little things fixed it was such a joy to drive! That clutch tho... twin plate nismo is a bit shit in stop start traffic...

driving the 33 makes me wanna put a RB25det into the 32.. down low they go so much better

skylines forever!!!!!

kezza i would swap mine in a flash for your baby. miss the r32 shape its the best thing...has to either be a GTR or a nice lil gtst with a rb25 in it. either way i would be a happy man :P

you selling your r32 for another r33...thought you loved your baby too much for that matt :(

missing my lil car so much wish i could see what kezza did to it but its been a sweet as car so far.....lovin it

Well, the r32 has been my sweetest ride yet, but i want something thats going to suit my needs a bit better, like not having some f**kers knees in ur back because they dont have a licence and i find myself the taxi again..

I'm also missing the more spacious interrior of the 33.. Anyhow, she's getting ready for sale soon, minus the work rims, they're a keeper for a longgggg time. I have my eye on a cetain mates garage saurus built trust t78 powered sr20 180sx with 19" bronze te37's.. It ran 12.4 @ 129 mph with a 2.6sec 60".. Insane car, and with the right money he may sell it, hopefully..

Anyhow, have fun with the r33 :)

hahahahah yeah mate, run away from the army and bring ya car around... want to take it for a spin!

As i was saying in text to ya about the R32 im painting.... a sneak peak at it!

paintkeith071.jpg

the cam, doesnt pick up too good on the fleck!

paintkeith080.jpg

But yeah man, going to be sick ass shit, when its finished.

Keep us up to date with this project in the way of photos...

Id like to see it go together... Looks like fun....

I wish stuff like this didnt cost money and we had 52 weeks holidays a year then i would do it....

SIDE NOTE: I have edited 85URK & babyskylines posts to remove large repeted pictures....

    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
