hey guys, my name is Drewe Crome and i am in the market for an R33 Gts-t skyline, Manual of course. I have a budget of $19500 but i want to have bout $2000 for mods, do u think i could get one for $17500 that is decent. Also i was wondering would a 180sx with aqn exhaust beat, an R33 gtst with an exhaust , no other mods, and also what type of power does a stock R33 pump out.

thanks for your time,

Drewe.

hey yeah i have thought bout insurance, so mumsies and daddy are gonna put it in their name and me just on the insurance, so i hope that will cut down the costs, so does anyone know how many kw a stock r33 has, and if it would beat a stock 180sx or not.

thanks again .

RPS13 (SR20DET; the 2 litre variant) 180SX has about 145kW @ the flywheel, and the R33 GTS-t about 180kW @ the flywheel. Though the R33 is heavier; and not many cars are stock. So it'd be a pretty close one (think: 0-100 in ~6.3s)

yeah well im not sure why but when my dad rang up they said the premium goes up but its still gonna be insured so i dont care. but ive gotta pay the shitty premium, that sucks but hey its better than having a burnt ut skyline in my back yard, wouldnt u agree??

http://www.syndicatemotorsports.org/forum/...t=2304&start=30 copy and paste this link.

go to the bottom of the page and view the pics, this is my new skyline that i bought 3weeks ago for only $15000, its got a fair few mods(both engine and body with all extras) only just done 90000kms and is immaculate inside and out(10months rego), so theres an example of what u can get if u look around. if u want to know more about everything that has been done to it, pm me and i'll type it all out 4 u.

good luck they r great cars.

This cant not be done i know this for a fact i called up about 5 insurance places and all said the youngest driver must be put 1st. So if your age is about 17/18 or 19 u will be looking to pay around $4,000 a yr for FULL COVER and $700 a yr for 3rd party + fire and thief

Also 17.5k will get you a nice skyline i pay about that in Dec lastyr and got myself a r33 93 model gts-t with a good list of mods, bodykit and sound system :D so just shop around and u can find a good deal

    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
    • I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.
    • If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
