Ok, so I am currently 20 and have wanted an R33 Skyline for quite some time now. I have been working two jobs as well as studying, and have been saving my cash like a madman. While I would love an R33 now, i think its the best to wait for another 3 or 4 months when I will be off my P's and be legally able to drive the car.

I went into Carizma a few weeks ago now to have a look at some cars and to generally suss out what they were like etc. Honestly speaking, I was impressed. I met David who was only too happy to show me a few of the cars and spend a bit of time talking to me. After checking out how shit/dodgy some import caryards are, It was a welcome change to see Carizma. The cars all looked great and were reasonably priced.

In short, I will be going back to see David in a few months when I am ready to buy. Check them out!

Adam.

I bought my R34 last year from Shui at Kamikazi, this car also has been nothing but great to me,overall both places were helpful and took time to assist me still to this day.

Yeah mate i can vouch for kamikazi i usually go up there twice a month just to have a look at what they have in , they are more than happy to have a chat and tell me whats new and so on (ive been looking for a car for about 2 years) , the amazing thing is i cant believe they havent kicked me out yet as i havent bought a car from them lol.

The other option would be to import your own from Japan and start looking now - I'm sure the guys at Carizma can do that for you too. Just an option...

I have considered doing that, but would rather be able to see the car in the flesh before the purchase. And yeah, i think they do that sort of thing also.

      S15 Spec R

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
