ive got a question for everyone, i want to get a new car and have been looking at gtr's to replace my r34 gtt, now r34 gtr's are still out of my price range but i can comfortably afford a 33 gtr. now is it worth buying a car that is 3 to 4 years older than mine? because my parents say that im crazy buying a car thats older than mine.

from now on, you say "idears" whenever you referr to that car ok? turns me on. Sam, dude, thats just gay.

lol.

the whole thing reminded me of the time shan was going on about electric spider monkeys (sigged)

but really now, im no homo

OMFG finally finished the car and after 3 weeks its running again yay

things done:

painted intake plenum and rocker cover/coilpack cover from gay gold to crinkle black (managed to scratch 2 bits when putting it in but cant see it so YAY)

changed regular FMIC with hole cut under battery tray to return flow cooler. will be covering hole under battery tray

while most of the top was out and things along the side of the motor, went nuts with degreaser and now she has a oil and dirt free motor :happy:

one thing im happy with is that there is not a single bolt left over WOOT

next time think ill just pay someone to do it for me though lol

any tips on how to shift the rear caliper bolts on a 33? cant get a socket on there cos of suspension arms, and i've snapped my 17mm ringspanner on the bloody thing.

i have a pretty thick ring spanner. wanna give that a go???

dude if you can wait go for a 34. was in the same boat as you but 34 came out on top. better interior and new technology and its a newer car and looks 1 billion times better then the 33.

so yes your crazy. unless you love the 33s and cant wait to get a GTR and find a mint one

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
