I wanna buy a gtr r33... help


Recommended Posts

Seriously, tune the car around an inlet restriction to give you about 130-150kws. Thats a drop of about 60-80 kws.

In a GTR that power, weight, suspension, and brakes combination, would be a safe car, but like any car would still need to be driven with a level head.

Cars like Corvettes etc, that have Valet switches that drop hp, simply use a variable restriction in the inlet.

This is done using an additional butterfly valve (throttle body) and a secondary computer map to run the car in this altered guise.

Theres your solution and should only add an additional $2000 to the pruchase price of the car.

I am serious, this is not shoddy/dodgy, major car manufacturers do this, so you see, there is no reason you cant own your dream GTR.

I have an answer for insurance too.

At that sort of $$$, you will be able to go close to being able to repair it in the event you have a small ding, or if its a larger accident, then sell off the parts, (hey the engines go for +$5k, interiors $1k, wheels $2.5k, brakes$1.5k etc, etc)...

...and buy another R33

Still get third party insurance, and a good alarm & tracking system in case of theft.

So with third party you are still gaining a no claim bonus, and if you have an accident with a gutter/tree, something other then another car, then by repairing/selling you will not be affecting your no claim bonus.

After reading what ive typed, i have to ask how badly do you want a GTR?

Take the money and blow it OS on a great holiday, when/if you come home save and get a GTR then.

Hey if your parents are willing, see if they will go for the 21st b'day present thing, R34s may even fit the price bracket!

not being mean but its very hard to get a salesperson to realise you are genuine when soo young looking at a gtr..... speaking from experience, also i would doubt any private sellers would comfortable letting a 16-17yr old (male or female) drive their gtr.

have you driven a gtr before ??

I've got a nice series 2 R33 gts-t that you could have for $38k, its already modded and would be a nice first car.....Brett

For anyone stupid enough to take my above post serious, I was being sarcastic and the car is not for sale!!

I really thought it would have been obvious as how could a car with this much power be a nice first car!!

    • forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k. 
    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
