Yeah, car bra for stones and insect crud.

Sorry didn't see you, must've been lookin' elsewhere.....or something.

Yeah Woolpack is no longer a retirement home for old age pensioners, its been 'modernised.

Common whores are the car of choice around here, I'm the only lonely skyline for a 100 kilometre radius. Even if it is only a gts-t it's still special around here.

Not to ignore you sewid, but I just got back to the office (I go away with work a bit), and find I've been given a new computer. Now all my really cool stuff is on my old drive, so I'll have to link 'em up and bring all my 'private' stuff across. I'll get to it some time next week.

I'm away again most of the week............

Also need to take some good qual pics of the cedric, since I bought the digi camera (thanks sly100) on the forum here, I can do that now [take pics that is].

But I gotta say that its really only a gts-t with a few mods.

It could be, I'm not skyline educated enough to be able to tell you, I know it has had some serious work done on it, whether by Nissan, or Nismo, or the Jap dude that owned it, I don't know. I do know:

Full lock diff

G Max Nismo clutch

Tein coil over height and ride adjustable

Super advan wheels 255/245 yokohama advan tyres

hks pod filter

blitz fmic

hks evc

blitz turbo timer

apexi turbo gauge

Greddy gauges x4 oil pressure, water temp, oil temp, exhaust temp

cusco rear wing

oil cooler

m/c brake stop bracket

3 1/2 exhuast hks viper 5" s/s muffler

cusco front top bar on suspension

MP3 player

300kph nismo speedo

different front bar

carbra

momo wheel

razo gearknob and accelerator pedal

project U brakes

And I'm told its, a bigger turbo [i haven't seen a std one, so looks no diff to me]

bigger injectors

aftermarket ECU, no markings that I could see, so don't know what sort

I also know it does 250kph with the a/c on [forgot to turn it off] an not flat, still accelerating [i have a witness to this], reckon it would be flat at 260/270kph, maybe my speedo is out of calibration, I don't know, I had it serviced and calibration checked by Olympic instruments in Pymble prior to installation, so wouldn't think so, but wheel diameter etc may change the ratio. This was at 16 psi boost, which apparently it has been built to take [or so I'm told] etc etc [i normally run at 0.75/1.2 kg/m on the evc.

i've had it dyno'd twice now, and its making about 195rwkw [189 and 197 at two seperate places, ie not the same garage].

I take all the pride of ownership etc, but take NO credit for all this, I didn't do anything. I've only owned it since May 2003.

Hope this didn't bore you too much, i hate this sort of thing a bit.

I'll get some pics out soon.

it may just be a gtst but its a 40th anniversary 98 isnt it? which means it should be quite different to the rest of the GTS25t cars out there. I wouldnt mind a look under the bonnet :P

Under the bonnet......................

    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies. 
    • 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  
    • 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
