Blue R33 with a dodgy R34 front end conversion? I used to see it around every now and again in Hobart when it was still registered a few years back, I thought it looked awesome when I first saw it but on closer inspection it looks like it was a little bit roughly put together (never saw in too much detail though). The guy who owned it at the time drove it like the king of douche bags. Only general douche baggery in traffic and throwing it around, seemed to like the image, never saw him sitting on limiter or anything like that though.

From memory when I was initially praising the cars looks Funz32 didn't seem to think much of it, I don't know how much experience he had with the car but he knew the driver by name (daniel? I think?), could be worth asking him :)

A lot of people from here should know the car because it stands out like a sore thumb, good luck mate

Found it, even has pics of how it was in January 2010. Reading my posts it seems I have a pretty different opinion of the car and driver, maybe time has made me into an arsehole?

Either way, this is the post I was looking for:

has been in a severe front end, not sure of how much damage came out of it though, but a bit. as for the rest.. umm yeah.. no comment :)

Here's the rest of the thread for context:

cheers guys, the few times i saw it, it was pretty haggard too, but now seems to have had some $$ spent on it as its all one colour and looked straight? only thing that put me off was the fact it is unrego'd and needs pitting and still asking 8k...

iv been informed its rb25de+t with a 20 box? can anyone confirm this?

yes i know that car , it's definitely de+t , still 4 stud last time i saw it , has definitely had a hard life by the people i saw that owned it . all of the body kit was sikaflexed on and painted over , the best part about the car was the new head lights . it may be better than it was when i last saw it though .

*shameless plug* i have a nice 32 sedan id sell around that money , nice tidy car :)

Left hand rear quarter has about 50 pounds of bog in in it, looks Like it was applied with a shovel and rubbed with a rock. Hands down one of the biggest shitters about. Was "clean" about 6 years ago, would make good target practice now.

wasnt really looking for a tidy daily all the same as i have my 32 and a bmw, but still.. i turned away from it lol.

he's asking 8k needing pitting.. (dreaming i know but i planned to lowball him and use facts against him lol)

    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
