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.

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • 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
