Looking to join the darkside for a 2nd time ey?

First it was a dirty 30, now you getting excited over GTR's...

Anything else we should know about? lol

Ha sif. I just wanted to see another pos gtr for positive reinforcement of my beliefs. :(

Re said POS for 14k. If its still around at end of Sept then i could be interested. I try to reclaim my life next week. Will be interesting to see how I go....be fun to buy a GTR, and de0file it with GTST badge, V-Tec stickers and just gut it and put it into a wall. Kill it... like all GTRs deserve (not even RIP. Rest in a flaming inferno you gasgety POS)

Except for that R33 of course. Giant shoudl put me on a payment plan :(

I would be real curious to see someone buy a basic used R33 GTR, already with the usual stuff for 22k. Spend 5k on stripping it, race seat, and good pads and seat and harness, tyres. I suspect with steel wheel turbo and 280awkws it would be an entertaining, quick and reliable thing without breaking the bank.

Roy you should know that minus the stripping bit that is an exact description of my R....now the suspn is sorted I can say that it is fun and reliable (so far..touch wood). As for quick....well considering I'm steering it I think it doesn't go too badly :( and with a bit of weight loss there should be a lot more in it.

I think I'll give to ActionDan to see what it can do.

Fixed

It'll be in a For Sale thread in 3-4 weeks when I put it up - it's a car I have in my possession.

Currently @ Racepace getting a bit of a look-over.

I will start collecting loose change from various couches in poeples houses from now!

Did someone say R33 GT-R for 14k?

PM me details :laugh:

There out there mate. I bought a complete mint R33 gtr a few year back uncomplied for $9000 in Springvale. I've prob bought another 2 or 3 clean r32 gtr's with good mods and blown motors for $8k in the past.

Nothing to do with the Thread.

But, this photo is taken on Ferraris test track - Fiorano. The wife and I jumped the fence in 1998 and watched Luca Badoer shake down the F1 car on the Wednesday before the Imola GP. We were hiding behind the barrier at the end of the straight in the photo.

Ahh the memories, thanks for listening.

PS Go with a GTR and upgrade the oiling systems.

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
