Hi all,

Cleaning out the last of my R33 GTR parts and I have 2 sets of shocks for sale.

First off is the Sydney Kid R33 GTR kit. I had this in my R33 GTR for about 4000km, but the new owner of the car wanted the price lowered so this came out and in went an R34 setup instead. Spring rates are 4/3KG and are valved as per Sydney Kids group buy kit. Handles great as many will agree with.

Paid $1500 but will accept offers around $1000 and will negotiate/swap for parts and cash depending on what you have to offer.

The second set of bilsteins are of an unknown valving configuration. They are pretty firm but are re-buildable so for anyone wanting to make a custom set they are a cheap starting point. $150 ono.

Parts are located in Cairns, North Queensland. Will freight anywhere. PM or call me on 0434 147 478 if your interested.

Are they Both off GTR's??

Yes indeed, both sets are R33 GTR, but also fit an R34 GTR and R34 GTT.

The setup pictured on the right is the sydney kid setup with the 4/3kg springs

The shocks on the left are the unknows that can be used as cores for a rebuild/custom dampner setup. No springs on this set though as you can see. When you go custom the springs need to match your valving anyway so you'd buy new springs to suit what you would have done to the shocks.

Are the Sydneykid Bilsteins valved for street or for track?

What are the differences between R32 and R33GTR Shocks? I notice the rear lower mount looks wider, are there any other differences?

Are they Sydneykids Eibach springs?

They are very streetable but work on the track as well (though I'd never done anything more than a motorkarna event with them in my previous R33 GTR). They were a huge improvement over my Teins that I had previously.

Yes they are eibach springs, 4/3Kg. I have no idea how they compare to an R32 GTR setup. Its possible the top hats just need changing to make them compatible but I dont really know and I dont have any means of comparison either... sorry.

Bump... and price drop.

Now accepting any reasonable offer and will also accept swaps of other skyline parts. Im building 2 engines at the moment and are chasing all sorts of parts so tell me what you've got and im sure we can work out a deal.

    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
