I haven't seen the car but here's the link: http://www.jollysupullit.com.au/eziparts/D...E%2003/78-01/81

The web searching for this yard (Dandenong, Vic) is excellent, pics of all the cars and an inventory of parts removed.

Who's going to buy it? if it's cheap enough I wouldn't mind it. Shame they were closed today, couldn't get any answers.

They were open today. I don't think they ever answer the phone (at least the advertised public number). Try the email address on their contact page. http://www.jollysupullit.com.au/WebPage/WebPage.asp?Ref=6954.

WOULD ANYONE BE INTERESTED IN RETRIEVING PARTS OFF THIS FOR ME. I WILL PAY BY THE HOUR< SAY $50PH. The convenience of just having engine mounts and Gbox mounts pre made out ways cost, epecially when you've got to cart things back and forth to engineers.There's also some other bits and pieces I'd like also.

RB engine and box conversion is pretty straight forward for what i've been told. (one of my coupes had a s/c rb30 in it, but i got it as a roller)

Use rb rubber engine mounts, need to cut about an inch down off the drivers side engine bracket, reuse L series g/box x member and tailshaft. (unless using a 25 box, need to shorten tailshaft)

I also have a modifed engine bracket out of a rb20 c210 that was wrecked down here.

post-44326-1264493685_thumb.jpgSo Gordie are you saying the RB30 5 speed and possibly the RB30et box will need no special Gbox X member, the L series will bolt up to it with NO alteration? The L series drive shaft yoke will plumb nicely into the RB Gbox? So in this pic, I'm looking at ( this is the one at Jollys') the Rb30 engine mount and the rubber is also RB30. Now the main piece attached to the chassis is ? C210 or RB

Looks like stock rb30 bracket and mount to me in that pic. Got a pic of the other side? other side should be shorter.

Engine x member should be a c210 one, well at least mine is.

Tail shaft yoke is the same size/spline, not 100% that lenght is the same, but i was told that it fits staight in, il measure mine up tomorrow to double check.

You can even reuse your L series gearbox, just need to slog out the top to bellhousing bolts, and modify the gear shifter because it will be on a angle due to the way the rb mounts up.

As for gearbox x member im not 100% as my coupe didnt come with one, but i was told a c210 one will fit the rb box.

Ricky I'll get some more pics of the car when I go out and have a look at it. If you like I'll give you a buzz when I'm there to see if you still want anything - but buy the sounds of it you may not need mounts etc. Cheers Drew

Your a champ Drew, I'll still take mounts anyway if your prepared to pull them. Knowing myself tomorrow it'll be a SR20. Are you looking at it before saturday? it's just that i'm away to Bali for 6 nights Sat onwards.

Did the bonnet have some of the reo underneath it cut out to clear the manifold?

...

Bonnet was gone when I saw the car. There's an old pic on Jolly's website showing the underside of the bonnet (link is in first post of this thread).

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      By Duncan · Posted

      Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.

      Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it

      Coolant leak?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground

      Coolant leak?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.

      Coolant leak?

      By Chupapy · Posted

      Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
