Gday all,

some great R33 examples in here, its been a great read from pg 1 lol!

i thought i would post some pics of my newly aquired S1 R33 GTS-t, its got some things on there i know your all gonna spew, ie: GTR badge!! but keep in mind ive just bought it and none of it is my doing, infact my sister inlaw who sold it to me bought it like that too back in 06' hahah...but it does have some fruit with 300rwhp.

Also, if anyone in WA recognise this car please pm me as im chasing details of the engine and management system, i was told it has a Forged bottom end after it fried a piston in standard form with nitrous! This car was purchased in 06 by my sister inlaw, that previous owner had the engine done by a shop N.O.R back in 06.(im lead to believe the engine builder now works at Chris Mills Performance??)

Thats all the info i have on its history, so if you know the car or the old owner please pm me!! cheers!!

what the future holds:

Ive since got custom plates for it, i got "SCR33MN" in poly white on grey, slim line front!! woot!

Stickers on door...GONE!

GTR Badge...GONE!

You might spot in the pics the ding in the front rim? well ive got to see if i can get it fixed, if i can then i will also paint them black.

Im going to get rid of the mirror tint and just get black tint all round, legal up font, darker on the rears!

A clean up of the interior, driver seat is pretty worn and some painted bits are scratched and stuff on the dash.

As far as engine mods go, i hope to have a new GT35 hangin off it in time for Powercruise in October(High Flow turbo will be for sale then) if it turns out the engine realy does have a forged bottom end then look out, hahah...

keep the great pics comin...

cheers,

Gonz.

thats a very tidy machine there gonz :( always had a soft spot for silver 33s, dont see many of them

cheers, ima fan of silver cars, its my 3rd, the other 2 being utes, i realy like the black and silver contrast it gives, my other favourite car colour is burgundy, and Skylines look great in both colours IMO!!

Its a good thing you said that, after looking at the pics i was ready to start hanging it on you for the gtr badge.

hahaha, yeh i bet, i dont know why someone would do that, im proud of it being a GTS-t, but dont get me wrong, if i had the money for a GTR thats what it would be lol!

Heres my R33, Just bought her off a fellow member (some of you may recognize if you watch the for sale section)

Firstly i bought it coz it came in the m spec kit and all, nice p1 buddy rims, Nice exhaust, and 2 month old respray in silver with ice gold pearl in it, it sparkles in the light :) Also, its a type S :P (n/a) lsd and vct standard

so yeah, im fair happy with it espec being my first car and all, drove it back from qld to vic coz it was the most decent r33 for sale ive seen in ages.

Plans cosmetically are Gtr grill, and tint :) even maybe lower, but ive already scraped going to fill her up :)

Let me know what you guys think :)

P.s One pic i got bored and pulled the grill off :( Looks not bad i rekon.

Looks nice, dont like the missing grill, can see toomuch of the shit thats in there, if you like that front bar be nice with it, becoming very hard to find these days.

Only took grill out to get a feel of what a gtr grill would look like :thanks: Yeah i love type m front bars :D

    • I havent bought a manual cover for the dash yet and no cluster change, won't bother me too much, I just need to get that auto box gone, manual in! I miss my manual. 🤪. We started last weekend and managed to get the box out. Planning to start putting it in this weekend and then order a single piece tail. We were super careful to take time and not damage anything. It's my first time working under the car.  With my S15 mainly worked in the bay. This time, it was a headache because of three or four bolts only. They simply didnt want to leave thei homr and the one securing the tailshaft, another above the GB, and the one securing the lipstick was a shit. Mates mate, Davo caught fire 🤣, nearly opened his chest up with a grinder 🤦🏽‍♂️ and both mates nearly had a plate from the box land and slit their head open. Fun times. We all survived. Not the easiest working with limited access on jackstands. As I'm sure we can agree these are the memories which make us love our car. For all three of us, was an awesome weekend and Sunday 3.30am before tools down was a fantastic effort. I need to upload pics, but looks like it needs to be via Url now. We used to be able to just upload pics back in the day. It's been that long! 🤪 Im currently spraying rustoleum under body, not because it's rusted. It's super clean, but just so it's protected for the next 10 years. There was a few surface rust spots. Which pretty much wiped off with a 3M scourer.  Really impressed with how well the previous owner maintained it. Bank account went down so quick! Service, then GB - managed to get a spanking new 34 genuine box from Nissan. All the rest of the conversion parts from Kudos.  Went with a Nismo short shifter. New pedals and Exedy Clutch and FW. Ordered the Prp Rear Main Retainer kit which should arrive Friday and my first engine mod part just like I did with my S15 will be the Tomei Expreme Turbo Outlet. Already on order. It'll likely sleep next to me on a pillow during the coming months. 🥰 Last build was on my JET200GT profile and on SAU and Hardtuned I had documented the build. Planning to try to do that again. Brands feel scarce now. Wish we still had ARC and Apexi parts readily available. Exhaust - need some advice on this. I had an Apexi exhaust on the S15 and loved the tone. My mate had a HKS HP Silent on his 33 and suggested I go with that to avoid drone. I can't remember hearing an RB25DET running that so will likely need to wait for a meet or something to hear it.  Not after big power, just enjoy building it, and drivability with minimal negative attention.
    • Have a chat with Ben at Moore Performance or Jesse at JS Performance.
    • Thanks both. All good advice. Reminds me of drilling through stone wall for drainage pipe 😬 I'll let you know how I get on if I still have use of my hands afterwards 😅
    • Finally got shipping number for the intake and throttle body, shipped by UPS, so "should" be in my hands sometime next week, fingers fracking crossed
    • I'm so far behind in the jobs I have to do at both work and home (including car) that I have become immortal. There's simply no way that I can die now.
