Noob With 40th Anniv. R33

[u_shakoor]

Hey guys, I'm pretty new to this forum, although I've had my car for about a year now. It's my first car, although I had to wait an eternity to get it. I got it fresh off the boat from a dealer, had to wait a few weeks for him to get it complied and all. Its a 40th Anniversay R33 GTS-T, but thats about all I know about it. Its got a rear R33 GTR spoiler, but I can't seem to find many other specs on it. It's got an after market Blitz blow off valve, pod filter, and a Nismo 3 inch cat-back as well. I'm getting a GReddy turbo timer installed as I type , and as you can see from the pics I got blue LEDs put in near the feet. I plan to keep this car for the longrun, and want to spend money on it on further mods, BUT being a noob, I have no idea. I used to drive my parents tissue-box-on-wheels before this, so I really do not know much about cars, but I'm learning as I go along.

Any help will be greatly appreciated! I also wanna go on skyline runs with you guys!

Hopefully the pics get attached properly, please let me know what you guys think, and any suggestions are welcome.

Cheers!

First off welcome

As for info on the 40th anniv. model (I've got one myself) apart from the pillar badging, the seat badging and some extra available factory options, they're the same as any other S2 R33 albeit built in 1998 just before the R34's (or very late 97 for some).

As far as mods go, best place to start is always with the exhaust (power wise at least). You already have the cat back, so the next step would be a 3" dump/front pipe and a high flow cat which would complete the exhaust system and give you a nice gain in power.

From there depending on what path you want to take (or take first) you can go with an upgraded intercooler (R34 side mount if you don't plan to go much past 200rwkw, which the stock turbo will do) or a front mount if you plan to go further with an upgraded turbo etc...

There's plenty of mods to get good power, but don't neglect suspension, tires and brakes.

Have a good read through the various sections of the forum, and utilise the search function to find all the info you could ever want on your car and the different ways to go about modifying it

Congratulations on the purchase

Welcome to the forum mate, I also drive a 40th anniversary but in midnight purple. Your best to search the forums and do some reading on the first mods to do and just rock up to any cruises/meets/dinners in your area.
