Hey people,

I’ve just moved to Brisbane from up north, new job (network engineer) in Murarrie and a new car, Skyline R33 GST-T (5th car). I got it from gold star autos (hopefully it’s not dodgy) Anyways, I’m a pretty keen driver, when I get bored, I go driving around randomly. I’m still getting use to it, since my last car was a Hilux surf.

At the moment my R33 is pretty stock, apparently it has some GTR options, 17inch wheels and a exhaust that doesn’t wake the neighbors.

I have done some researching and I think the first thing ill do to it is throw on a FMIC. BUT, there are 100’s of crazy named brands out there, so I have no idea on which kit to get.

Well, I’m keen to go for a cruise any time. So pm me if u are bored. I live in red hill at the moment, moving to kangaroo point next weekend.

Kev

Hi mate welcome, probly see you around cruising.

Good luck with the future mods.

I hope you have a lock up garage for the 33, as they are very popular with the criminal element around Brisbane and Gold coast.

That is an awesome grill! I tried to find one for my 33 but had to settle for a GTR grill instead. Oh and welcome

Mine has the same with NISMO in it. Came with it from japan so I dont know where one would track one down. It wasnt painted though when I got it, just matt black plastic.

I think it looks a load better than the standard 3 bar one anyway,

    • Nah its a server spammer thing  Although, now that I manually approve all the accounts I can probably loosen up some of the restrictions.  
    • Thread bump, again! Although, no bad news this time. Posting for the sake of possible root cause. Basically, I rebuilt it (mostly stock), installed Haltech + sensors, had it running fine on new ECU.  Still not really understanding why it cracked pistons last time. Got to tuners, and while checking timing, noticed +-10deg of timing scatter while revving. Changed CAS, and it was rock solid. While not definitive, can't imagine seeing 20+ psi with that amount of scatter would be a good thing. Also glad I found something.   Bit more of a run down; Carried out a stock rebuild, a set of stock pistons, out of a spare bottom end. Everything stock apart from head studs and oil restrictors. (so I can pretend I didn't let the Nissan out, ha.) Armed with the measuring gear and FSM, set about doing overhaul. Oil restrictors as per oil control thread for a RB25, stock oil pump, drifting. Head drain/vent from rear of head, to passenger side of sump above oil level. Two dash 10 vent lines from drivers side of sump (unused atm) Hi octane style cam cover breather kit Splash covers over last 2 cam caps. Both breather lines from cam covers to vented to atmosphere catch can, not plumbed back into sump (wanted to see what it was actually breathing). Got it run in (did about a 1000km) no to low boost scenario, As I had questions over old ECU setup. Installed haltech +sensors for flex Retune on E85 (finding CAS Issue along the way), made 300rwkw at 20psi, out of wastegate. Did a drift day the next day (yes, it was a big weekend!) and was checking catch can throughout the day, ZERO blowby. I mean nothing. Lines from cam covers are not even wet. Done a bunch of street driving, spirited and catch can is still dry. Early days I guess, but pretty happy so far. Also now run 10w60, up from the 10w40 that I used to run. Oil pressure is significantly better, especially when hot (as you would expect)      
    • Thanks buddy. I thought it was a server storage thing. 🤣
    • Perfect! Thanks for this, both look like great options!
