Hi,

I started this thread back then when I had a N1 R32 GT-R and there was little information on rare Skylines.

This thread has largely been replaced by:

http://www.gtr-registry.com

That site has everything you'd ever want to know about Skylines.

 

This sounds interesting. Got pictures?


Heres a few original pics of the car on stock R34 rims.

Build Date: 11/1997

ECR33-133971

1997 Series 2.5 R33 GTST Turbo Coupe Automatic

LP2 Midnight Purple

Originally registered here with 96,400kms, currently has 99,000kms now approx.

Zero modifications upon arrival. Only mods to date are updated 18" rims.

That is an unusual spec, if you post the VIN we can double check the original spec in FAST. I've never come across a 33 gtst without HICAS or stereo before. All 33 gtst were designated Type M though.

Is it a ER33? There is also GTS25T Type G. If so there was 22 produced without passenger airbag and with the no audio option.

Yeah bro, we can all read the GTR registry, but its all speculation until he posts the VIN.

It came with hicas, passenger airbag and no sterio just to fix that mistake up.

Iv got a 1996 R33 gts25t series 2 type m that was released off the factory without a stereo, front passenger airbag and hicas. Duno if that's rare i cant find good info on it.

So its a standard R33 gtst, not rare and you learned how to use GTR.registry, so not quite a total waste of oxygen.

Where does this r33 fit in? its a mirror image.

Sorry if this is all stupid questions for this thread but i cant find answers.
Makes sense the dealer fitting different stereo, I didn't think about that.

    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
    • I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
    • I don't care for these at all, but at least the underside looks straight and not rusty. A good basis for a long life. Many cars from Japan have been lifted with forklifts and f**ked almost irrepairably.
    • Yes, but it's not dumb or dodgy. You can build a perfectly good boost controller from a pressure reg, a relief valve (looks same same as a reg if all from Norgren or SMC, for example) and a check valve. I ran one for years. Only superceded with  EBC because I could get one for cheaps and wanted finer control.   THis mod is certainly not a sketchy boost mod, provided the boost is kept below the "spin to death" threshold of the turbos.
