This is my new ride. I just picked it up and am stoked. Ended up gettingher for $13500 which I'm wrapped about because she is fresh as and bloody hammers. Here's a list of mods she has already:

230 RWKW

1993Nissan Skyline R33 GTS-T

RB25DET

* HKS GT 2535 BALL BEARING TURBO

* FULL 3INCH EXHAUST

* APEXI Power FC + Hand Controller

* NISMO FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR

* HKS Air Filter

* TURBOSMART T-Boost Controller

* TURBOSMART TYPE II Blow Off Valve

* Z32 AIR FLOW METER

* BOSCH 044 Fuel Pump

* Intercooler 600x350x100mm

* UNIQUE AUTO SPORTS 5 Puck Extra Heavy Duty Clutch

* 17" Wheels with new tyres

* Painted brake calipers

* HKS turbo timer

* SONY Head Unit

* nismo front bar and veilside side skirts Fitted

Timing belt was done at 60,000kms

Made 231RWKW at 14psi. has much more potential

I am getting a bit of ping or valve bounce at top end 1st and 2nd under full load. It feels like she wants to go harder but I have to shift up due to the bounce. Is this just from the big turbo winding her out and not being able to keep up in the fuel department?

So I don't really need any more engine mods except bigger injectors and a more aggresive tune. I should be able to get 250rwkw.

Any ideas on mods for her though. Any ideas welcome!!!

Cheers

My good mate Shane owns PSI parts and Sniper racing. He will be helping me out with all the carbon fibre mods. All the interior inserts, engine insert (coil pack cover, heat sheild, radiator cover) and carbon finned bonnet. As for the AV side of it I have a system to go in with all the bells and whistles Alpine double din dvd unit, V12 digital amp and Boston speakers. My old man spent 15k on a full system intall on his GTS. Now he's got the new one he's giving his to me. "top bloke" lol. I want some bride style seat and I suppose that'd really be it I guess. It's got ample power now I just need to boost up the style aspect.

As for Neon lights I'm not really keen to go down that path. if anything maybe some reds to match the brake calapers.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
