Hi all, recently decided to purchase a GT-R, as to me it just seems ahead of its time, and is a great car to drive. Anyway I found one that is a great one, and can't wait to finalise the purchase and get on the road. Pics are on my profile, if you see me on the road wave to me.

I bought my rims and tyres from them, also some BC coilovers. I was very happy with their service but I put the wheels on myself so I don't know about the loose nut issues.

Hi guys,

As you can see i'm new here. Been on nissansilvia.com for ages and was told this was the place to come for your excellent Classifieds section lol.

Moved to australia almost 8 years now and was surprised to find that cars are so much cheaper compared to where i come from. Just have a s13 track project car atm, no skyline as of yet thanks to the sad sad economy.

Anyway, i look forward to getting great advice from you guys and might see you on the track sometime soon! I hope.. lol cheers

Hey guys,

I'm Tony.

Just picked up a Skyline V35 350 GT8 on Wednesday.

Insane car. Absolutely love it and the power.

Ohhh the power!!

Not sure whether I should mod it or not.

Seems like a beautiful executive style car.

So if you see a gunmetal grey V around Garden Cityon stock plates, that'd be me. :)

Haven't seen very many of them up here which is a shame.

Sure to see you gents around,

Cheers,

Tony

Hey,

My names Matt. I've been the forums for a while but haven't owned a skyline for like 3 years cus of my gay apprenticeship making me sell my 32 gtst.

But now the hard yards payed off and I bought myself my dream car, a 1993 V-Spec II 32 GTR with only an exhaust fitted from the turbos back. Since then I have uped the boost and fixed a miss fire at full boost due to a bad spark plug earth and too big of gaps. with the upped boost and preforming right, managed to slip the clutch so thats getting done as well as cam gears, cam belt, harmonic balancer, water pump, vipec ecu and split fire coil packs been dropped in as soon as they arrive by Mark at Godzilla motorsports and then its dyno time. not sure what it'll put out but hoping for 300hp at all fours with the lightened flywheel. :D

Its gun metal gray and pretty much gets around everywhere lol I'll post some pics shortly and if you see me around or know of any good events in the brissy/sunnycoast or the goldie let me know. also any good meet spots around to meet new people and have a chat. Cheers

Also anyone who knows anything about the vipec can you let me know. would love to learn more about it

Matt,

I have a 32GTR also (Traditional Grey) and had a VIPEC installed during a birthday the car had recently.

They are supported by Mark (Godzilla) and Trent at Mercury Motorsport, so i guess the support is available here in Bris for tuning ETC. Overall i beleive they are a good unit, with the ability to have multiple tunes set up on your laptop (98 octane and E85) with an easy reflash if you need to swap at say a track day. Talk to Mark, i am sure he will be able give you a heads up. Get Mark to check your ignitor (feeds power to the coil packs) and make sure its ok.

Anyhow, your on the right path - great car - happy driving.

Adam.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!

      Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out

      I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.

      I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?

      I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
