All very interesting. But last time i checked we were on a wonderfully green and blue earth, not hell. You havent addressed the simple fact that R33 owners are all of dubious sexual orientation. R33s are known to be susceptible to germs and disease and often end up pink with 20" chromies, yellow leather and more fibreglass then a catamaran. The roof line is good on foggy mornings as with such a high seating position bird strikes become a real concern, but hey, the fog is all the way down there.

Then there is this whole RB25 thing. Nissan threw cheaper and weaker pistons and rods at the car...and thought to themselves, hell we have thrown all this weight at the unsuspecting Nissan enthusiast, we better given them displacement so they dont notice the extra lard. So throwing a weaker engine in the heavier car fitted well with the deisgn intent Nissan had for the R33 GTS25t, they knew most were going to be painted pink and get chrome wheels. So knowing what the owners had in store didnt bother with making a decent car.

I know the above to be true. If you doubt it then you can line up your

against my lowly R32 GTSt. The loser has to run down the drag strip at Calder on Friday night naked with their old fella chock a block up a chicken.

why would u want to have 'shitty' r33 parts on ur pretty 32? >_<

Because i can only push this feeling inside me down so many times. It is eating me up inside. My car needs more R33 parts! :(

I found a good buy on good shocks and it woudl be almost worth modifying the car to accomodate, but maybe not. :yes:

As you know the top shock mounts on R32 rears are at the inner guard in the boot, on R33's they are up under the rear parcel shelf. Hence R33 springs and shocks are much longer than R32's. Knowing you, you will want a precise number, R33 shock body 440 mm versus R32 shock body 330 mm.

I suppose you could use them and raise your car 110 mm..................

:) cheers :)

    • 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.
