We had one realy nice R33 4 door 5 spd come in. The guy ended up buy the car stock then got us to put on all these parts it was PHAT when we did it. had 18" wheels, Exh, Tein Suspesnion, Air Pod, and Front Kit.

2 door is fine for 4x people.. lots of room - more room than most other 2 door cars. Its just the hassle of flipping down the seat to get them in.

Personally don't really like the 4door R32 at all, 4door 33 ok with kit and done up.. 4door R34 is mighty fine

4 doors is better than 2, for the simple fact that you can carry people without them having to crawl all over the seats, in my opinion.

and i like the look of the 4 doors better than the 2 doors

this is my skyline - a 1993 Impul R33r Special Edition, with all the goodies from Garage Impul, which they cannot bring in any more under the new rules:(

the 2 door coupe looks a lot more stylish. i personally wouldn't consider the 4dr skyline, if i wanted practicality i'd just get a locally delivered car to run about in.

the coupe has a lot of room for a coupe, but just remember, the seats don't fold down (at least in an r33) because the battery is in between the rear seats and boot.

Hey is that your car up for sale in the trading post I think its no 58. I was thinking about getting that one as I want something a bit special. Then I looked at the price and smashed my head on the dunny seat when I fall off. They wanted $33 or $38K for it. Might be worth it but still is an Auto.

That Kit looks PHAT does anybody know were to get it???

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
