:P ty its actually measured off my R33 interior.

well. it only took a few arvos to weld up. could use some refineing and was relatively cheap.....the only catch is the seat. I had it lying around and its an actual car recliner, so it weighs as much as the rest of it combined. a generic seat of a lighter cheaper description would make it much more affordable.

dude.. srsly??

what do you think polyphony have been doing for the last 5 years??

my money is that you'll forget all about forza before long..

working on other games.. As they stated in their interview.. Prologue and PSP GT and a couple of others.. You didnt think they been spending the last 5 years only working on this game?

well there is a light at the end of the tunnel. the game is currently in production.

there was some funny responses to this on GTPlanet. this was my favourite.

FOX NEWS BANNER APPEARS

This just in, a truck carrying all the Gran Turismo 5 discs has been loaded onto a plane to Yemen, along with a printer, a man wearing baggy underwear, and a guy wearing a shoe with a match.

yeah i been waiting for them to put a r33 gts-t in it too. do they have the r32 gts-t in the earlier ones? from memory they do. sif put that gutless piece of aids in and not the 33

I'm not sure. I haven't played GT since GT2, have been playing Forza.

In Forza 3 I had to convert a R33 GTR to RWD to make it like a GTST but it still keeps the RB26 so it's not a real GTST of course.

in gt4 you could get an r32 gts-t m spec, though if i remember you could only get the r33 gts and not the gts-t.

i will be pretty sad if theres no r33 gts-t. but you would think after taking 20 light years to make they would have all the nissan skyline's down pat. same goes for the 180sx.

Anyone know for sure if the R33 GTST is back in or not?

I'm tired of pulling out GT2 and the OLD Playstaion to relive my old car :)

I suppose we'll find out in about a months time.

pft, your doing it like a sucker

forza 3 has all the cars....

pretty sure one of the guys at harvey norman here has one. needless to say he works in the computer section. and he drives a supra, which isn't suprising since a hell of a lot of IT nerds drive imports. pretty much never see one in a commodore. it's usually either lancers or imports.

    • I get that taking off the head is best but that's a bit much for "just" valve seals. I was just under the impression that one would be able to rotate to TDC and be able to temporarily drop the valve without losing it and effectively having to remove the head to then recover it. I never knew people actually pushed rope into the cylinder to do valve seals hahaha So just to confirm, just going to TDC will not work? In that case I know when I do valve seals I'll maybe just remove the head and do some other things while I'm there, or just wait until I do an engine build.
    • The old approach was to fill the cylinder/chamber with a length of rope pushed in through the sparkplug hole. The new approach is to connect compressed air to the sparkplug hole and fill it with enough pressure to push the valves up. Doing either of these things with the head on and the engine in the car is a lot less pleasant than doing it properly.
    • Can't you put the pistons to TDC and then do the valve seals? Or will the drop down too far to pull them back up?
    • One thing I can tell you is, do it properly the first time. If you encounter unexpected problems just let the car sit for a week or two if you have to get some other parts or figure stuff out.  I'd have said go and use as many OEM parts as possible but since you want to change the turbo later on a custom kit is probably the better choice. Since I have no experience with RB25 just compare parts diagrams and images before buying a line kit and it should be easy to see if it has everything you need. Amayama has very good parts diagrams and part number lists, that is what I used a bunch to figure out what I might need. And don't forget to plan ahead and possibly renew other stuff that's easy to get to while you're in there doing the turbo lines. Happy wrenching
    • Update 4:   Hi all, good news. Engine is running and all the gaskets and seals seem to be working as intended. No leaks so far, even the JB Weld seems to hold. I flushed out the old coolant a few times and put in fresh coolant, not Nissan stuff, I decided to try the Ravenol Protect FL22, they claim it works for a wide variety of JDM cars and the opinions on it by some people were pretty good. And it has the nice poison green color! And man am I glad I bought a coolant system tester earlier this year, vacuum filling works wonders on this engine. I can definitely recommend this to anyone still doing it the old school way. All you need is compressed air supply. Will have to do a small test drive as soon as I can, I removed the gauge cluster again as the tacho needle was still bouncing around a bit but it was much better than before already.  I also found some cracks on all 4 tires inner and outer sidewalls. Apparently these tires should 't be parked on for extended periods or be kept under 0 degrees during storage, which I did not know. Clearly the previous owner didn't look into those details either, he probably bought them just cause they are cool semi-slicks. I'm just wondering how tf I am supposed to reach 30-80 degree tire temperatures on the public road consistenly, these tires were never going to work for my use case. I'll probably order Continental SportContact7 ones as these are the best allround summer tire available right now and I don't think I'll need anything crazier for now. Do let me know if you have experience with various tires and which ones you recommend.
