hi guys looking at buying my first car trailer -

just finished reading the trailer thread and what i am looking at sounds the goods - i am only a little worried about the bed size -

i have been advised it is - tray 3.740x1.800

would this fit my R33 gtst? just want to know if it will fit and be suitable ? has cover front end and ramps fold up..

if anyone has a trailer with similar bed size could i have your opinion.

thanks

No I don't believe it will fit.

Measure your car from the very front to the very back, then measure the width of it.

Having the front cover will reduce the amount of over hang you can have at the front and likewise having foldup ramps will also reduce all the rear overhang you can have there too. Actually I don't think you will be able to have any trailer that has fold up ramps.

long way from Canberra - but thanks

Eastern States problem!

They ship these things for a few hundred.

If Canberra is too far from QLD then Perth Western Australia must be another country. :) There are literally everywhere over here and great resale value. One was on the market last week for about 2 hours as I understand and was sold at a price not far from new.

I swear by these trailers, takes me about 7 minutes to load/unload trailer on my own with a R33 GTS-T. Drive up, tie downs on front wheels and lock pin at the front.

To be honest any other trailer is just frustrating to use, dirty and hard to load.

so at that price pint your not far off a basic nevco

you are miles away if you are comparing apples with apples. The Tilta with a few option would come in at $8k rego and GST

    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
    • I assume clearances were all a-okay?
    • Shock tower brace is in +5Kw....LOL
