I'm not saying it's not a nice looking car, just that there's nothing really done to it that make it look any different from the other 3 million S2 R33's around, apart from the wheels, which aren't included.

The thought of buying a skyline sometimes crosses my mind... If I was to go down that path instead of something much pricier like M3/AMG/35 GTR etc, it would more than likely turn out to be quite an animal..

But alas, I think those days are behind me

Agreed, though the numbers are diminishing. I'm seeing less and less 33s these days. Ain't what it used to be. Maybe that's cause eastern suburbs cops have drowned them out.

Thought I was getting past Skylines myself, but a look around at everything new and second hand and couldn't see anything that was much better or fun for the money...went and bought a second one lol

I also look at everyone who goes and buys a sensible car or euro...they seem to wanna come back

Are you all like brothers and stuff?

Yes

Same here I think. Much to Adam's dismay

Haven't seen a neat 33 in a long time which is why it caught my eye. Most of those 3 million are f**ked or horribly modified

If I went for another skyline I think it'd have to be a 34GTR... But knowing it'd be highly modified and stand out aesthetically, means I'd more than likely get raped by the po po and I can't be f**ked with all that EPA/RWC constantly...

Buy one, if it happens do the swap to stock and sell it...not much to lose. At least it won't depreciate like the euro you're considering

Haven't been EPA'd for nearly 3 years myself and I live in the heart of Knox now

The cop cars do watch me closely though

thats why i sold my 33gtr.. wasn't even anything special just epa / pulled over all the time 'cos skyline' & constantly shitting yourself that you'll get done whenever you go past 4000rpm

would be awesome to own a 34GTR and openly mod it without worries (and actually drive it).. sadly that isn't the case.

Am paranoid in the pulsar even though it does blend in (not so much now with carbon bonnet.

The Gloria is still a pit to pour money in, but covers all the bases it doesn't. I still worry about cops, but all I have to do now is wind down the front windows

not anymore

now you get a 45 or 90 day permit and you just fill in the logbog each day you drive.

other than that all good.

but rules to get club rego much harder now full RWC and VASS certs.

and they can un roadworthy you and EPA you now as well.

Until you get an "M" plate, then the HWP knows that you're modified and will target you anyway...

P.S. Bring back my Jerry Cans, got a track day tomorrow...

Lucky I got in early. Ah yeah shit. Do you need em tomorrow? I don't really have an easy way to get them to you tonight.

    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
