Hello all,

I recently became a proud skyline owner and just wanted to say thank you to all the people who input into this site. The information on what to look for when buying, fuel economy etc. was a goldmine for me. Without all your posts i probably would have ended up with a lemon.

Cheers all!

ps i ended up with a 95 r33 gtst manny for $11,200...might post some pics at a later stage

Im no photographer but I took a few quick snaps today. The sun was nice enough to come out for some nice lighting. The cars done 155,000 km and has hardly any mods, just a new pod filter and a front mount intercooler aswell as an Apexi AVR-R boost controller. I have to put the intercooler back on as it didnt pass roadworthy so the stock is on atm. EDIT : Oh its also got some nice 18" rims, side skits and an after market front bar.

Looks nice and clean. Definately a good buy. :huh: Just so you know, that isn't an aftermarket front bar. Its actually the series 1.5 front bar. That being because your R33 is a series 1.5 :) The side skirts are 400R ones... like mine :)

Yep, thats not a bad price. Don't forget you have to get it painted and fitted as well which will cost a bit more on top of that. If I were you, I'd do some investigation on different places to get the front bar and also what its made of. Do a bit of reading into fibre glass as well as frp. frp is more expensive, but doesn't crack as easily. If you get fibre glass, know what quality differences there are... in particular, the amount of layers. Less layers means weaker body part. ;)

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.

      Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.

      I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
