Looking at the photos I first though "wonder why they wrote that one off?".. but then after looking at the rear wheel in the last photo I think I know why... as for that guy's comments.. don't stress.. only 1 wanker out of the lot ain't a bad ratio...

Oh my gord! I think I am gonna cry.

Hope you're alright, that's the main thing.

Now there are only 1,000,001 R33's in WA.

Hope you are covered by insurance etc....Keep your chin up.....go out and get another one, in the meantime there are plenty of skyliners you can hitch a ride with south of the river :D

it's funny how much damage the fence has done to the rear panels. like little scales. looks more like how I'd imagine fibreglass panels to crumple under normal-to-panl compression load like that.

on a slightly off topic note - some nimrod has advertised an R33 in the paper for the last three or so weeks with a "one lady owner comment". go figure. good test of how gullible people really are I guess.

Skippers are the worst sharks in the industry. And thats saying something. Took my GTR in to possibly trade on a Liberty B4. They had a clapped out R32 GTR for sale for $38,000. It was really bad condition the wiring under the bonnet was butchered. When I asked them how much they would give me as a trade they said $19,000. For a much better condition car. Scumbags.

The rest were Japanese male drifters...

    • Thank you, 100% the intent. New coils were due and the 17" sixers look/feel loads better than the stock wheels. The aero options are so spot on.   Thanks for the warm welcome, all!
    • 98 r34 gtt Been rocking my latest setup and car running like never before. Have put a good 200 miles on it since all the latest changes and additions. everything is dialed in and have been driving it a bunch.   However, all a sudden last weekend as soon as I pushed throttle passed 4k and the engine stumbles, (slow or fast acceleration) hesitates and doesn’t go above 4100 or so, like a misfire. Everything else seems fine. I had a “good” set of coil packs that I removed from car when I first got it when I changed them over to new coils. I swapped out current ones for those, but no change. I also changed the plugs, no change. Seems to rev over 4 when out of gear with no load just fine no “misfire”, but as soon as its in gear with a load of any kind, it “misfires” as soon as rpm drop back below 4 k it runs perfectly, smooth, starts, restarts and drives fine as long as I keep it below 4 k while in gear. All readings look fine, no CEL   Any idea as to what could all a sudden cause an issue when pushing rpms passed 4 k?
    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.
