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

Nevco price: http://www.nevco.com.au/products-services/specialty-trailers/

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow

    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
