Hi guys,

I'm a Newbie to Skylines and cars in general. I'm looking at an R33 (not sure what series) tomorrow.

It's white, manual, turbo, no mods except GTR bodykit and exhaust.

Apparently the interior is a pig of a car but the engine has been rebuilt recently due to a friend blowing up their engine.

Price is $7k cash. (I only have $8k).

What should I look out for when I inspect the car?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers guys,

Sanjay

Does everyone think that Series 2 are much better than series 1 R33's because of the ABS and Airbags?

I'll be honest, I need to get my post count up to 10 before I can reply to PM's.

So rather than write shit on someone else's topic, I thought I might ask a relevant question here.

Sorry to offend!

Up to you if you think the ABS & airbags are worth it... I didn't care that mine didn't have neither, since the car I drove before (VN commodore) had none, its good old seat belts is all I need.

Theres not much difference from the performance side from S1 or S2...

The main difference with the series II is the different stlying. Have a look at a series II and a series I, pick which one you like the look of better (because if you decide to change at a later date it costs a shit load).

    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
