Hey all,

I'm Jake, living in mackay and i have just got my hands on a Black 93 R33 GTST, I'm loving the car as I've only had na cars before so the speed is really enjoyable.

On weekend when i put the interior back together ill take some photos and post them here. if anyone is in mackay and wants to help me with anything or help out in anyway that would be great as i have little to no idea on whats been done to this car apart from it being fairly stock, so mods are welcome =)

The body is fairly stock which is how i like it so no exterior mods will be done apart from wheels and led globs eventually haha.

Regards Jake

Welcome Jake.

I highly recommend reading the forced induction threads for mod ideas.

a lot of the dos and fonts have already been figured out.

the search button is a great tool to find specific ideas.

use as little words to describe as possible to get the most results.

can't wait to see pics of your new beast.

I'm sure you will become obsessed as a lot if us have.

ps, please take most of the advice on this forum with a grain of salt.

there is a lot if good info out there.

there is also a lot of crap.

cheers, Luke.

Never seen Enkiei trispokes.

Cool.

Can't tell if serious >.>

Also i've made up some MDF spacers for my front door and have a pair of MTX splits installed. have a second set for the rear and all the wiring for my alpine amp. new head unit. and a MDF parcel shelf is in the works with loads of sounddeadener to keep the nasty rattles at bay.

What you planning to do about the height? Would ride a bit weird with it off balance yeah?

      Blue/grey smoke after idle

      I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.

      Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!

      I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)

      I get that taking off the head is best but that's a bit much for "just" valve seals. I was just under the impression that one would be able to rotate to TDC and be able to temporarily drop the valve without losing it and effectively having to remove the head to then recover it. I never knew people actually pushed rope into the cylinder to do valve seals hahaha So just to confirm, just going to TDC will not work? In that case I know when I do valve seals I'll maybe just remove the head and do some other things while I'm there, or just wait until I do an engine build.
