Please repost not it caps and i will offer my advice, there is nothing more annoying than reading I NEED HELP THIS HAS HAPPENED ?? !!. Buuuuuut because im in a good a good mood ill help and let you off. My first piece of advice would be take it back to the mechanic that serviced it and asked if he fiddled with any sensors eg AAC, MAF etc. Oil always generally turns black after a few km's its the carbon. The detergent in the oil cleans out the crud. My radiator took several flushes to get all the build up out. not unusual for a poorly maintained 20yr old car. From what you have said it sounds like a fuel regulator maybe ? get all of this tested. Just chuck it on the computer take the guessing out

check the connection to the AFM. if thats not the problem, check the connections to everything else. mechanics unplug so many things they often forget to put them back.

oil going black - normal

as for the brown coolant, i think it just wasnt flushed well enough. id only start to worry if i saw traces of oil

    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
