Hey guys,

New to the forum and I apologies if I have posted in the wrong section. This forum is quite large. I hope to get my feet here and chat with some great people.

As my first post I feel rude for asking, however I am about to buy my first skyline R33 GTS-T I'm a complete noob with cars. Been into super sport bikes mostly. Wouldgreatly appreciate any advice/assistance on the car I'm buying. Here is the link to the car sales ad. Thanks heaps in advance for any advice or knowledge on this.

It depends how "handy" you are with cars. The more modified it is the more you may need to change to get passed roadworty. Also with that sort of power things will start breakig unless the power has been supported properly. If you are new to modifying/mechanics side of cars and you like this one because it has a lot of power and cheap. Thats properly not a wise decision

seems cheap - you get what you pay for... my advice would be to buy the cleanest r33 u can find even if it costs 8-9k if its immaculate and seller is genuine you will have no problems

I'm with Patrick, 310 kw is just about the limit of a r33 gtst. You'll be driving a car over 10 years old at max capacity and when something blows (not if) your going to have to pay alot. I mean, you blow a clutch it's 1000-1500 bucks (including labour). Blow an engine or gearbox an youll be paying alot more then 5k on this car hah.

    • Robertson was a Canadian inventor, and it absolutely reigns supreme here. 95% of our screws are Roberston. It's literally the only option you can buy off store shelves. What would it have lost out too? I believe it's also very popular in the US.  My reference to imperial was pointed to both NPT and BSP. 
    • No. BSP lost to the cultural/technical imperialism of living next to Trumpistan. Face it, Robertson screws were better and still pretty much lost out to the yank stuff. The Europeans hate the Brits and they don't use NPT. NPT is just as "imperial" as BSP is, being based on those useless inch thingos. Just done differently. 
    • I live in Quebec. Our license plate slogan is "Je me souviens" Translated is "We will remember" as a reminder to when England conquered us and that we must never forget what they did. Long story short, BSP is unheard of here due to being an English design. I'm surprised our nazi anti english government office the OQLF hasn't kicked in my door yet just talking about it, yet alone imperial anything.       
    • Thanks for that! I did a quick Google search looked up some of hydaulic stores and didn't see it listed on the website, I'll give them a ring. Also found out later that I can buy 2 oem bleeder bolts for 10 bux and come with the washer which I might do so I don't waste the money it costs in petrol to find 2 washers (already did that lol). The old copper washes look in good nick, I drove it after taking it off and putting it back on and didn't see any  Part number here for reference if anyone needs: 14053-42L0A
