Hey I just bought a r33 gtr 97 100xxxks from the auctions and very happy with it

Upgradding from a 33 gtst couldn't believe how much better it handles :touch:

But one problem at low revs there's some vibration ( between 800-1500 rpm)

Was thinking a engine mount or somthing?

It's not a bad vibration I can feel it on the peddles and steering wheel, takingit to the

Workshopthis week for a service just wanna know before I take the car in

And also what's thebest grade oil for it

Cheers :D

Not much can be said about your vibration mate, you will need to get the car looked at to identify what could be causing it. Based off the info youve given it could be anything.

As for oil, follow manufacturer spec of make your own decision. Generally a 10w40 would be fine, I like to use a thicker oil such as a 20w50. Quality should be your focus, dont skimp out on it.

If you owned a skyline previously you can continue to use the same oils you were using previously (Theres no special requirement for an RB26 over an RB25).

Also, the handling difference between your GTST and your GTR would be based on condition and mods :D Essentially they are the same car, just the GTR is alot heavier. Sorry to break your heart :rant: lol.

Haha ohh k its a vribtation coming into the cabin between 800 and 1500rpm

When I put the clutch in and take off from the lights its not that noticeable but if I'm at stand still and rev it slightly to 1300rpm this vibration comes into the cabin I can feel it through my door trim steering wheel and the accelerator

Hope that's more info

Talked to the local mechanic and he recons it's probly the engine mount

      R32 gtr transmission strength, billet plate

      By Butters · Posted

      I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
