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.

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
