Last night cruising the lovely streets of Melbourne, we came across a nice white R33 GTR with the plates GTR-330.

Does this person visit these forums?

We were curious as to what the 330 stand for. Does it stand for 330rwkw or rwhp, 330kw or hp at the fly or is it simply coz the car was a R33?

Oh - and it has a 3-litre kit with N1 turbos. Perhaps this lends more to the 330 being kw :)

Would that be 330rwkw or 330rwhp and either at the fly or wheels??

I'd want to see that to believe it. I have my reasons.

HHmm...

I personally saw it get owned last night by a GTR with 310rwkws.

The launches were both pretty good but the other GTR by the end of second was a bout 3 cars ahead. No braking was involved until the red lights ahead.

Leewah , and others, this GTR330 is a customer of BMT. Its owned by a guy called Desmond who bought this car off another guy who had previous work done on it by us. It hasnt got 330 at the wheels. Its a 33 thats why. It aint that quick, but its very tight and tidy. mad Diamond audio install, nice wheels...and around 230 rwkw at the moment. Lets see how its goes in the near future...maybe he might have enough balls to step up to the plate with the big boys soon.

Later boyz .........

Yeah , i do agree that its a clean car.... but i guess most cars would after a full respray. I should sell him my T78 turbo kit and cams, and then we should see well over 330rwkw. Then his plates would be justified. Just a quick one, have you had any dramas with your Giken gear set? Because, as you maybe would have heard, a few months back, i broke 3rd gear in my 32 with a full giken gear set. Not happy. Thinking of a Schifzer or Guru cross gear set. What do you reckon, because for you to pull 10's with that box and not breaking anything... i want to know why i did. I was changing at 7800rpm only, and it shattered all of 3rd. Looking at a gear set or complete gear box..... you know anyone with any of these combos. Because, i aint prepared to shell out 7-8 grand for a brand new one, or 12-20 grand for a dog box.

    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
