Just thought I'd make a quick post about my new baby, been talking about it on here but haven't posted pics. These aren't great, will get some nice sunshine ones soon but this gives you an idea.

Allow me to introduce my 1996 Series II R33 GTR V-Spec in Midnight Purple!

It's got various mods but the specifics will remain undisclosed as I'm not into blurting it all out on a public forum. I've come from a Series II GTS25T with a Turbo back exhaust to this so it's a fair step up. Only had the last one, some of you may remember it - Bright Red with Deep Dish Impuls, for a bit over a year but this was up for sale and I couldn't say no.

Hope you all like!

I was told that you could option them on Series II, they're genuine Nissan items is all I can tell you and they look sexy ^_^

Are they straight bolt on? I guess the S2 R33 bonnet is different shape to that of a GTR hence why you cant fit projectors onto R33 S2. I think S3 and S1 and S2 bonnet shape is identical?

They couldn't look any better in my opinion, they're direct bolt in's nothing has been modified that I can see around the lights. AFAIK all GTR's have the same bonnet/light shapes.

Just need some blue parkers to match, the standard ones clash horribly with the Xenons :rant:

Hah, yeah I'm a bit intrigued myself actually but at the same time don't really wanna play around for risk of damaging them - have read about people changing a turbo seal and then having one let go 0_0

Side Bar: WTF is with your avatar... is that f#$king Power Rangers? Yes I bloody watched it as a kid =D

Mmmm,

The target would be 280-300rwkw's and have it be as streetable as possible. I'm keen on an oil relocation kit as well, a vented bonnet would be nice for engine bay temps (not rice). Some 18's would be nice too but I kind of like the Volk LE37's it has on it, shame they're 17's though. For now just enjoy it =D

Kushil - My Series II only had POD (enclosed, cold air feed and heat shielding foam) Turbo back exhaust and the factory dual stage boost bypassed so it would run 7psi all the time. At a guess, the car would've made 140-145rwkw's? It had Bilstien Shocks, King Springs, 265 rubber (rears 235 front) and a strut brace so it was fun to drive having come from an NA FWD Celica. The R makes my Series II feel like a stock NA silvia. The power and handling is not comparable. I friend of mine who drives a fairly modded 185awkw WRX explained that he didn't want to race me on the strip or track after going for a ride in it.

I was under the impression that moving into a GTR would just be a heavier, slightly better handling and more powerful Skyline but the difference between the two cars is much bigger than that. Drive one and you'll understand better, good luck on your purchase!

NB: To be fair, the R has more mods than my last car by the way.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By djr81 · Posted

      Bit difficult to follow. Have a look below and see what the standard R32 layout was like. Note there was a restrictor in place immediately before "turbocharged pressure control solenoid" that, if removed, magically got you 1 bar boost.

      I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?

      This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
