hi there guys...

as you can all see i am just new to skylines australia forum..

i just got my skyline here in sydney.. non turbo as i am only in my p's (that sucks).. this is the only car i have here...

back home in bangladesh.. i have a fd3s rx7 and toyota trueno..... enough abt me.. lol

since i got this car i was wondering how to go on about the usual maintenance most of what i am planning now is to change the plugs, engine oil, oil filter and get a short shifter and maybe lower it

1. what are the plug number for my 93 r33... i have done some re search.. bkr5eix is for the 93-98 which i assume is the series II and BCPR5EIX would be for the series I.. right ???? cause ive got a series one ?

2. what grade engine oil should i use.. i mostly use penrite.. so do you guys suggest synthetics ?? or semi ?

3. where can i get genuine nissan filters ????

over the years what i have learnt through my toyota 4A-GE 20valve is that oil filter is a key element to how the engine responds.. i have had tried many different brands .. but TRD and toyota genuine was the best performing.. same goes for the Rotary rx7..

i am guessing it would be the same case with the RB25.. as well.. thus looking for a nissan filter.. ???

4.. last but not least short shifter... the stock shifter is not what i am used to or like at all !!!!!

5. i need to lower the car.. i have seen people use KING springs.. How good are they.. from friday night when i got the car till now i tried sliding around its ok not that bad but lower would be much better cause sitting on 18inch wheels.. and stock suspension i really felt i was driving a truck.. (coming straight from my super low rx7 )

i mean i am not going track daying or anything i just need them to be reliable as i drive a lot i dont want to go 200 kms from home and see a spring snap or something..

Thanks to all you guys even if you dont help out....:) lol..

    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
