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,

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
