R33 Service Manual - Who wants to pitch in to buy one?


Recommended Posts

Guys, I know everyone would love to own a copy of this publication, and while its a bit too much to be bought by oneself, if we all pitched in and bought a copy there's no law against us all buying one copy and passing the one copy around. Basically the you can grab it off the last person who had it when you need it n keep it till sum1 else wants it.

The manual is about $200 or less, so basically if 10 people pitched in 20 bucks we could buy it. It apparently covers all models of R33s.

Since the manual has to be passed around, it requires that all people in the group buy are in the same city, so this is only open to residents of melbourne.

I will make sure that all people who put their hands up for this are people who are known and credible, so that no one is tempted to "lose" the manual and stuff it up for every1 else.

I would definately be interested and would be willing to chuck in $20 bucks.

Tell me though, are we allowed to make a "back-up copy" just in case the original gets lost?

what you do with it is up to you, the rest of us won't be liable for the repercussions. The way I see it, its like me buying the book n lending it to you, I can't stop you from photocopying it, but you will have breached copyright.

Im not someone to break the law. But im still interested.

Surely there are more people in Melbourne who are interested in the R32 manual?

And no freeloaders, funky, i take it it will not be lent to people who havent put in?

yeah got the GTR one, I'm assuming the R32 Service manual would have everything though, coz that's what it says on the blurb.

i guess a similar group buy could be done for the R33 manual... actually seeing as I'm gettin an RB25DET swap I'll need it, yeah I'll put $20 in for one... I'll create a thread for it...

Greetinz Funkymonkey,, where have you seen this manual for $200 or less,,i just ask because everywhere i have seen it ,,it is around the $240 to $250 mark before shipping ...........

more plebs want the r33 manual i suspect hehe... nah I need a copy too coz I'm puttin an RB25DET into my car n need to know all the fiddly bits n circuit diagrams

some rules will have to be established I guess.

minimum keep time is 3 days

whoever loses it has to pay out the contributions in full to the contributors

it cannot be loaned to anyone outside the group of contributors

whoever had it last keeps it till it is wanted by someone else

    • Jack the back of the car up, pull that wheel off, pull that sensor out, and put a bore scope into the hole to inspect the outer casing, see if anything looks damaged before you pull the whole thing apart.
    • Ergh... So I pulled the speed sensor out again and the tip was shiny so I think it's rubbing the bearing. The bearing contains the magnets for the speed sensor so I think when the first sensor broke it damaged the magnet ring on the bearing.  This is just a Google image, but there is a hole going to the bearing. So when the tip broke off the old sensor I'm guessing it fouled the bearing... As the magnet is only protected by a plastic cover it would be easy to damage it. So I guess I'm doing a bearing again.   
    • My thinking is that if the O2 sensor is shot then your entire above described experience is pure placebo.
    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol
