R33

Manual

2 door

Series 1 or 2

Must have sunroof

Contact me here

I have a white '93 R33 GTS series 1 manual with sunroof. 109k on the taco. Mechanic said it's one of the best looking Skylines (mechanically) that he's seen in a long time. Not really looking to sell it, but make an offer and I'll consider it.

I'm in the south eastern suburbs of Melbourne.

Problem is non turbos simply don't have enough power to make full use of the AWD system. I test drove one and just didn't like it. RWD is much more fun IMO.

you probably weren't trying hard enough. too many people rely on outright power now-a-days.

Im pretty much looking for the same thing your looking for Mario, but the GTS RWD with sunroof lol.

Gonna' be spending upto 15 without sunroof and 15500 with sunroof, probably gonna get it at the end of june or mid july.

Hows yah search been ?

I'm not saying it wouldn't do anything, it's just you wouldn't get the full benefit. I'm just guessing here, but if you revved a GTR to 7000rpm and released the clutch you'd overwhelm the traction on all 4 wheels, whereas a GTS4 would grip and a launch. That's good, but you want enough power that you can just lose traction, and make full use of it. In a GTS4 probably only what... 20% of the power would ever be put to the front wheels?

20%? Come take a drive with me..

You will frequently see the front wheel torque at 50% during launches and corners. Atessa dosn't mean squat if you have shit tyres.. I can snap second round a corner with attessa and the arse will fly out quite easily.. And 7K launches in any car is not a good idea.

ATTESSA's benefit isn't in its ability to launch.. Its that it sends a constant 5% Front wheel torque.. this gives you HEAPS of corner entry grip. I find I can leave braking very late as it gives you the ability to turn into the corner at much higher speeds. On the exit of the corner you can easily floor it and it will grip amazingly due to the 5%. If it does oversteer, you can keep you foot down and the full 50% front wheel torque till be sent and the car will pull straight and true.

And I have an RB25DE r32.. you dont need power to use the ATTESSA to the full of its ability..

Eug said it perfectly.. People rely too much on power these days.. Bragging about and relying on power is like admiting you slept with your cousin.. just proves your retarded.. but HEY!.. what do I know.. i have never slept with my cousin..

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
