hey guys

Just brought a series 1 r33

As this is my first foray into imports I though I'd jump on here and get some advice from those who know

I know the rims are shit and it needs more low haha but I've gotta get a roadworthy done first

I honestly think that them rims aren't all that bad :)

And for the lowering it, I'm not going to lower my skyline, but only because my dads car is low, and I don't want to get scratches on the bottom from road humps and some peoples drive-ways.

^^^ You might have been witnessing a car theft or the get away from a criminal offence, given that it was in Ulladulla. Statistics show that 32% of all vehicular journeys undertaken in Ulladulla are related to serious crime, another 28% related to the movement of drugs and 12% whilst 3 or more of the vehicles occupants are intoxicated.

Cheers for the feedback guys. Managed to pick up a second hand set of rims for it. I think they are work copies??? Not too sure. Also just got some tein Nr coilovers for it.

Landscribble, I brought it from Hattonvale, about halfway between Ipswich and Toowoomba

Dan I have absolutley no idea where that is so I'm going to say no haha.

Justin, the new rims I got for it are 18's, so I'm obliged to lower it, as it's nearly 4wd spec now :P

    • Definitely do-able haha. I will give it a try if the fuel pump hanger does not solve the issue. Just need to find some quiet time in the area, Malta is like a big city and I live right next to the main hospital so it is very busy during the day. I'll be installing it in about 2 weeks, found a garage that is pretty knowledgeable and has the necessary tools. This garage has worked on multiple builds, even for competitions. They even asked me to stay with, so I should be fine.
    • Just to add, I found the r32 gtr ecu the most forgiving, the r33 one would get the shits. 
    • For what it’s worth I drove my gtr for over a decade with gt-ss as a true daily after I pulled off the -5s, I had it engineered and went with stock ecu etc.  never skipped a beat.    I would only worry if you can’t get good fuel all the time in a tropical paradise
    • I bought an engine from a friend of a friend many years ago, it was sold to me as a RB25det Neo.    recently I started pulling it apart and noticed that the intake manifold was pretty different from others that I had seen on RB engines so did a bit of research and found that it was a non turbo manifold. So I’m sceptical now that it is a NEO DET and just thinking it’s a NEO DE (it does have a turbo strapped to it currently).    can you identify the engine model from the numbers on the block?
    • Yeah you can. Cable tie the gauge to a windscreen wiper, or run it into the car and hold it with one hand, or have the neighbour's kid run alongside and tell you what it says.
