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 ??

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!!

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
