haha.. tell me about it!.. why you think every day i look at my car i'm just thinking of giving up the ghost and going straight for the big stuff.

R32 GTR are pretty much the same price. Even under SEVS i could get a nice 92 or so R32 GTR for around $22k, probably what mine would be worth. Thats of course if you like the R32.. many don't

No plates for 32 gtr's under sevs yet that im aware of...

I think the 32's look tough...

Its a skyline thing to have GTR thoughts every month or two, lol

definitely :D my thoughts have been continuing to the one point for several months now. As long as I can get $22k for my R33 its a done deal.

yeah, i'm becoming a bit more of a fan of the R32 GTR. Not so many around (up here), can look neato, and go hard of course. The only concern would be the mechanicals at that age.

yer.. plates for the R32 GTR are a while off.. but they will come.

Soon there will be no option anyhow once the 15 year bites it .. i predict about 3 months. Although somebody said "no big changes are done in an election year" which could be true.

If so i have a few months to keep thinking.

hmm.. no idea! What mods do you have again?

Mine i'm *hoping* because of the mods, and in the end the full kit about $22k. The paintjob though is starting to get a bit rougher...and the km will turn off some i think.

i can of course fix that for $300 or so :D

i'm getting to the point where i'm just thinking **** it, if idiots are going to be obsessed by km, when mine has done 100,000km or so and is probably *fairly* close to that.. and some that says "60,000km" but there is no way in hell its done that little.. i might be paying a visit to the wreckers for a certain part.

banks are shit aren't they :D only want you to get new stuff so they can repossess or sell it if the time comes.

In my old job, they probably would have given me enough for a $70,000 R34 GTR, as it was under the 5 years or whatever, yet i had to get a personal loan for the R33 as it was "too old" to be eligible as a car loan :D

yeah i'd reckon $20k for yours would be fair.. hard to tell of course. When you look at a car looking a bit hacked (yours with the unpainted from bar.. or mine with the multicolouredness) people always go "erk, what a load of crap".. but soon as its painted its a whole different car.

When i went from old split, undercoated patches, half sanded back GTR bar, and dented panel to *bling* again my whole perception, and others of my car changed. So hope that is the case when fixed.

Yeap...

Its kinda lame...

I was going to lease a 34gtr through my old company at the end of last year... was still going to cost 15k a year in payments so i thought better of that... lol

      Does RB25DE Neo lower intake work with RB25DET Neo Upper intake manifold?

      By R34_GT to Turbo · Posted

      Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.

      The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
