I am not sure if this is the right place for this, but I could not see a specific section for pics of our cars, so if it is in the wrong section, I apologise.

Anyway, here is a couple of pics of my newly acquired black R33 Series II GTS-T. It is basically stock except exhaust system and HKS pod filter. It also has 17" mags, lowered, and has Cusco front and rear strut braces.

She looks to be in pretty good nick, only 72000 on the clock (whether that is genuine I am not sure), the interior is immaculate.

Feel free to make any comments (good or bad) you like, this is my first Skyline so I am interested to see what other people think.

Nah, I got it from a car yard on Parramatta Rd. I won't mention who because I don't have too many nice things to say about them.

I also discovered my car has a turbo back exhaust - 3" from turbo to cat, Catco cat, 3.5" cat back into HKS cannon. It also has braided brake lines.

dont know what problems you're having with the car quinny, but as i said before, ive got a black s2, and yours just looks fantastic. I'm very tempted to remove the S badge on the bonnet after seeing yours...

Then again the paint job on yours looks a lot better than mine so that probably helps a lot :devil:

Your pics don't show a badge?

Mine is there, I had to buy it brand new ($60!!) because the previous owner stuck a Silvia badge on there... with superglue or something. It didn't look pretty when it was removed.

Not really having any problems with the car, had to replace the clutch after only having it for 2 weeks, which was a mission. Took us half a day to get the car apart and change the clutch, about 2 days to get the box back in, and about 2 hours to bolt everything else back up.

The only other problems I have is that side skirts have come unstuck, which looks a little crap, but that should be pretty easy to fix, and also my passenger side headlight keeps getting water in it.

The badge was not on the car when I bought it, so I take it the previous owner took it off. I probably would have removed it anyway.

    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
