I got excited opening this thread and then saw the above riced up, insulting piece of ****.

No wonder so many people hate the R33's because so many are done up to look disgustingly embarrassing like that one.

Id want to be paid a very high wage to be seen driving that, even with a mask on.

Harsh but accurate :D

Sorry , but to me that's the worst R33 I've seen and from 20 odd posters here I've yet to see any positive comments.

If Skyline enthusiasts don't like it what does that tell you.

Be fully sick in an episode of Pizza though

Gee picked at random what about this and save yourself $5k ?

That first one is dam good value.

why not get one a year older and save 4 grand? spend that 4 grand on something else? rego, insurance, turbo?

i payed 10 for my s1.5 with 70k kays

You mean a year newer not older, also the k's dont mean shit, most have been wound back before they leave japan.

i think I threw up a little in my mouth, and the alarming thing is, it might actually resemble the interior of that car.

gay wheels.

gay fitment.

gay cheap leather or most possibly pleather interior.

gay chrome boost gauge bolted to dash.

bad paint matching on the sideskirts.

truck indicators on front bumper instead of proper R33 ones.

you need to get out more if you think that's the best looking 33 lol.

1994 R33's GTSt's aren't worth a dime over 9 or 10 grand, unless they're putting out over 250kw and don't look like a fully sick habib just molested it.

+1. Pretty much summed it up perfectly.

You'd also be surprised also how many people do hand over wads of cash in the $10-20K region!

I'm just surprised no ones mentioned Hot4s yet :P This is usually the way.

or calaisturbo lol

I like to put a trust in the fact that Nissan knew what they were doing when designing it...aesthetics wise.

cant say i like it... remove the bodykit, wheels, and most of all the interior... and youd have a decent r33.

if you're new to skylines then here's the thing, have a look around this site, especially at the motorsport thread.. check out mark and russ's r34 and their r32, and merli's r32 build, you can check out fatz gtr thread, but being 17... it may scare you... heck, it scares me.... also check out My Restoration by Godzilla32... these guys, like many on here, represent what skylines are about better than anyone.. the highs, the lows, and the comradery of owning a skyline, and setting them up to do what they do best.

you'll soon find (as you have in this thread already) that many people on here think skylines are degraded by dodgy interiors, bodykits and crappy wheels... if you wana do that crap... get a supra... skylines are meant to be built and driven... stone chips and all... if it aint broke or it has no purpose or function, dont touch it.

cheers and good luck

      R34 GT-T cycling ABS pump

      By MBS206 · Posted

      The team at OBD2 Australia are pretty good, shoot them an email and ask them. I've dealt with them before for work stuff. I'd be shocked if it didn't work, so long as Consult can activate the ABS. But you might need to use KLine for it which would be the stopper, as I don't think that piece does KLine comms.

      Yeah and hence my ghetto way of slamming the brakes, get the ABS to cycle, rebleed seems to be a sensible workaround.

      Hey! Happy to help. Nothing inherently wrong with the adapter, it's more so with Brett Collins himself. He gave me a lot of incorrect information when I was in contact with him and was extremely rude when I challenged him. He stated I could not use any aftermarket twin plate clutches except for his own, not to use the dush shield, bla bla bla and it was all BS.  Collins stated to cut roughly 14mm's off the housing, I took off 15mm to make room for the dust shield. I would confirm with whatever adapter manufacturer you're using.

      33 GTR Broken front wheel knuckle

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There's plenty of OEM steering arms that are bolted on. Not in the same fashion/orientation as that one, to be sure, but still. Examples of what I'm thinking of would use holes like the ones that have the downward facing studs on the GTR uprights (down the bottom end, under the driveshaft opening, near the lower balljoint) and bolt a steering arm on using only 2 bolts that would be somewhat similarly in shear as these you're complainig about. I reckon old Holdens did that, and I've never seen a broken one of those.

      Let's be honest, most of the people designing parts like the above, aren't engineers. Sometimes they come from disciplines that gives them more qualitative feel for design than quantitive, however, plenty of them have just picked up a license to Fusion and started making things. And that's the honest part about the majority of these guys making parts like that, they don't have huge R&D teams and heaps of time or experience working out the numbers on it. Shit, most smaller teams that do have real engineers still roll with "yeah, it should be okay, and does the job, let's make them and just see"...   The smaller guys like KiwiCNC, aren't the likes of Bosch etc with proper engineering procedures, and oversights, and sign off. As such, it's why they can produce a product to market a lot quicker, but it always comes back to, question it all.   I'm still not a fan of that bolt on piece. Why not just machine it all in one go? With the right design it's possible. The only reason I can see is if they want different heights/length for the tie rod to bolt to. And if they have the cncs themselves,they can easily offer that exact feature, and just machine it all in one go.
