Just registered on the forum. I know Skyline's are big in your part of the world and looking to tap into the knowledge on offer here. I'm based outside of London in the UK. My car is a JDM 1995 R33 GTR - fairly stock - did come with 19" TE37's but too big for my liking. This is a road car so not going to go over the top.

Spec is

JE forged pistons

ACL bearings

Polished con-rods

Cosworth head gasket

HKS Intercooler

Rebuilt stock turbos with steel internals

Apexi Filters

Trust downpipe

HKS Silent Power exhaust

De-cat

18x10" wheels with Falken 452's

Torque split controller

Do-luck front bumper

R34 front seats

Alpine stereo and speakers

Custom gear knob

Future plans are

Link G4 ECU and boost controller

V-spec bumper and trust splitter

Better brakes - prob just pad upgrade

Remote oil filter locater

Catch tank

Coilovers (have some sitting here ready to fit)

Really great tough looking car and welcome!

Have you got in touch with Andrew yet ? Also from London and again with an R33, he's known around here at SAU as "Torques" > nice guy :)

Cheers mate, was deciding between the R32 and R33 but the R33 in white swayed it for me. Don't know Andrew yet mate, will see if he shows up on this topic else I'll PM him.

Nice car.

What power is it making?

What do u plan on using the car for? Is it just for the street?

Cheers mate, not sure on power but I'd guess at around 330bhp at stock boost levels. Feels about the same as others cars around this level.

The car will just be a street car - for now at least. I have a well sorted track Honda Integra DC2 but might have to sell that as it's not getting much use these days.

Much as I like white car and white wheels I didn't want 19's and also didn't want the hassle of cleaning white wheels - just parked up they seem to get dirty. The wheels that came off are genuine Volk TE37's so hopefully will get a good re-sale price on them.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?

      Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it

      All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
