Hey guys, A while ago i was reading a thread that had everyone's skyline pictures in it and there was one in particular that caught my eye. A silver R33, no rear spoiler and gold volk racing rims ( photo was taken in someone's back yard)

Anyway where can i find photo's of skylines to have a look over and get ideas on what to do when i get my next one?

Is there a thread here or a good website?

Thanks in advance guys...

Cheers

There are a few standard "looks" for the 33, whether it be stock, GTR look, 400R look, stealth wing look, big wing look, something else, or some mix of different types. i think stock is pretty boring

here is mine.. wanna get 400R sideskirts, and detail some more things in the engine bay. whoever says "marone sux" is full of crap, as i think they look great done up a bit, lot more reflective, etc.

a nice interior is important also. Looks much to bland stock!

Anybody know about the rear wing on tony?

Thanks for the comments guys.

I hardly even drive it any more due to some issues and the fact my workplace tends to be demolition derby for trucks and it's near a petrol refinery that leaves crap everywhere.

The car looks very different to those pix now. The rear wing is a Signal Auto drift wing.

Copies are available from Bodyform in Sydney and many other places I expect. It has to be matched with a high mount stop light. It is a defect to not have a stop light but that's a bit silly on a Skyline I'd admit. As if you can miss FOUR lights coming on.

    • 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
    • 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.
