hi to everyone

I recently bought my line last week after a good year of searching aswell as browsing on these forums etc...

If you see a L-plater driving around in a r33 gimme a wave lol

just a quick question ive been trying to get a key cut for my line as it only came with 1 key...i went to the hardware store down the road and got one cut, it opened the door but didnt lock the door or start the car...

Is their a specialist key cutter around or key i can buy anyone knows of close to the city...

personally some hardware stores have no idea how to cut a key...go to a decent looking place at a shopping centre or something...the keys have to be the exact same length then the shape of the key has to be run into the design otherwise it will be to long or too short. Thats why it may not be working as it should.

Congrats on getting a skyline on ur L's. At least you wont get hassled by the cops.

And its probably a good idea too, u will get used to the power and driving a RWD car with ur Mum/DAd sitting next to you, watching that u dont go doing burnouts or try to drift around every corner. Then when you get ur P's u wont kill yourself trying to show off to ur mates who cant drive.

lolz.. foowz :)

There are TWO separate keys for the Skylines (for the 33 anyhow).. One is for the boot and doors, and you should have a separate ignition key.

p.s. blade - are you turning it the right way in the door? lock is clockwise, unlock is anticlockwise. Sometimes they have funniness problems and you may need to adjust the stopper.. i changed the barrel on mine when i replaced my door and it wasn't always working - after i reinstalled my central locking mechanism i didn't have to worry about that anymore.

does that mean you open the car door, and then have to change keys to start the car?

what about the key that only unlocks the door, and works in ignotion.. for valet parking, so it doesnt open the boot or glovebox..??

    • Will have a look at that. I cant see any leaks 
    • Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.
    • Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.
    • Hi Everyone I am from West Pennant Hills in NSW. Been too busy until recently to attend to my RB25DET Series 2 engine until recently. I am planning to stick it into the S15 shell at this stage, unless a nice SR20DET turns up... For now, i am going to try and get the RB25 running and working well then decide what gearbox to use. My preference is to retain the SR20DET  6 speed gearbox and tail shaft to retain as much and least modifications as i can avoid. I am an old guy and won't be doing any heavy drifting so i don't need a bullet proof gearbox Does anyone have experience with starting the RB on a stand? I got everything setup as much as I can with the info i can find... endless searching and videos on Youtube I would be great to get some pointers Cheers Songo
    • Hey all, Recently have had my s1 r33 gtr serviced and noticed my coolant reservoir was topped up to the max line. Took the car out for 1 yesterday and noticed today the reservoir is completely empty.  Any ideas? Radiator is full
