Gday everyone, this is my 1st post.

im seriously thinking of getting a R33 GTR.

What would be needed to get the car into the 11-10's 1/4mile ?

I have a very lame knowedge of skylines and have been a holden fan. Currently owning a VXSS tricked up and it runs a 12.2 on streets. but being 22 i need more. i want to see 11 to 10's and its getting time to sell the VXSS.

How much money would need to be spend on the GTR to see 11's ?

and whats a good imported R33 GT-R worth ? im guessing around 45?

any help would be AWSOME !!

thanks

MELV

A guy on this forum has a R33 gtr running ~10.4sec 1/4 miles

Name is Leewah, give him a PM and ask about the cost. My guess is about another $25-30k after purchasing the car. This would be a quality job that is still drivable

the r33 gtst that they use is up for sale for $40 000 something i think which seems like a lot cheaper way to do it to me, they also said that the car is capable of alot more but there not touching it cause its for sale its 400hp at the wheels its suppost to be the fast 2.5 in the country at the time

if you dont get much out of them try tony rigolies work shop i dont know where they are but the deal with some serious cars and they have a shop in sydney and on the goldy they have an r33 gtst that there trying to get 600hp at the wheels out of with similar upgrades good luck

400hp at the wheels is what I've got now with the NOS kit.

Well with a GTR you first have to decide what target you want. Do you want 11's, or do you want 10's

There is a HUGE difference and cost between the two.

Also a GTS-T is NOT a GTR, so dont compare the two....anybody.

its like saying "my mate bought a torana and did it up for a full cost of $50,000 and it ran 9's", and you spend 50k on a GTR and you get a clean stockish GTR.

If you want a clean GTR, a friend is selling his 33. Pm Leewah, or SIRVROOM.

    • Hi, wondering if the HKS bar and water reservoir still available? Thanks 
    • What an awesome idea to fit the facelift Lamborghini Diablo headlights. They are a perfect fit!
    • An update regarding the registration with the DVLA I sent off the paperwork the day after I collected the car from the port, two weeks later it was all returned with a letter explaining they have rejected the application. This was because the cheque was £20 short for the road tax (I used a price list I found online). Nevermind it is what it is, it was sent back to them the following day with a new cheque. Fast forward another 2 weeks or so, I called them for an update to be told it had been rejected. Yesterday (16th September) I received the documents back along with another letter, this time it was because I didn't put an X in one box on the V750 (personalised number plate certificate), which declared that I had the rights to the personalised number plate. Why this wasn't mentioned in the first rejection letter, I don't know, but it could have saved this headache. The documents were sent back today, so fingers crossed third times a charm and it'll FINALLY be registered on the road just in time for the bad weather (woohoo!) To cheer myself up I lowered the front 25mm, was sick of seeing it sit like a monster truck. No idea how much clearance I'll have getting on and off the driveway, I'll worry about that when I can actually drive it
    • You're going to miss not worrying about rust in the strut towers like the Skyline shitboxes out there
    • A few little updates that weren't filmed due to not taking long to do or not interesting enough for their own video. My new K&N Air Filter arrived, I went with an RU-4180 which matched the dimensions of the universal cone filter the car originally had.  The battery had gone flat, while that was charging I tidied up the spaghetti wiring at the bulk head and down the sides of the engine Next job was to swap the stereo The Kenwood harness had the female ISO plugs cut off and the male ISO plugs cut off the adaptor loom and joined with bullet connectors. I ordered in a repair loom through work and re-did it all. New Kenwood unit installed (Android Auto, DAB, Bluetooth, Reverse Camera) The bonnet/hood gas struts have been poor since collecting the car. I couldn't find any suitable replacements locally so took a chance on a pair from AliExpress.  The originals don't use a retaining clip to secure the cup onto the ball fixture, would explain why I struggled for 10-15mins trying to pry off the cups. The ball fixtures unscrew using a 12mm spanner, new ones are the same size. Sadly no photo of them fitted, you're not missing much lol The dished Momo steering wheel got replaced with my Momo Tuner, turns out I ordered counter sunk bolts for the horn trim ring (like they normally are for the steering wheel) instead of allen cap (flat seat)  A terrible photo of a Quaife style gear shift knob I've had stashed in my tool box for many years after purchasing the incorrect thread size (I can see a pattern emerging with ordering incorrect parts...) Also threw in a cup holder and a (empty) Boss Coffee can, because why not
