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

    • Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)
    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
