Hey everybody,

After talking to a few other R33 GTR LM owners, we think it would be a good idea to try and get some kind of register going. Considering there were only 98 of these released, it would be great to see how many made it to Australia, and even how many we can track down around the globe.

To make a start, if you could add your details to the list, and copy and paste that to your post to keep it going. Previous owners feel free to join as well, just make mention of the fact you are a previous owner. Feel free to chuck up a photo of your ride too.

If anyone knows of any other R33 GTR LMs out there please send me a PM.

Cheers in advance.

Great Idea fellas, definitely one of the more rare GTR models and it would be interesting to see how many are remaining out there. Its good to see a bloke named "livewire" with a such clean looking stock example ;)

Also, I wonder if NISSAN Motor Co are looking into launching a new road going LM now that they are re-entering le man in 2015!!

Hi guys,

I have 1 more for you to add to your list. After 2 years of enjoyable motoring a relatively small problem led to bigger ones. Now It's a long term project that I have been working on along with zealou5 here in England....well they have been working and I have been getting in the way. Please have a look at the car and the project thread below.

Thanks

Are there any articles on BCNR33 LMs in the UK?

I'll try and dig up what I have and check with Express Publications if any back issues still exist.

By the way, HPI referred to above stands for "High Performance Imports" now renamed, "Performance Imports" magazine.

Stay tuned to this thread Will! :)

    • If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.
    • This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).
    • I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.
    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
