10 found so far! We are doing well! And all of them look so good which is great to see.

Hey guys!!!

I´m Stefan from Freistadt in Austria. TheWatch (Marco) invited me to look at this Forum because of this thread. I also own a R33 GTR LM V-Spec. It´s been imported from Japan to UK in 2012 and than shipped to Austria. The mileage is 46000Kilometers, Body is stock and in good condition with new paint. The engine is tuned with HKS GT2530 Turbos, Titan exhaust 4", Hks Cams and cam gears, Greddy intake plenum, Apexi Power FC and some other specs. It puts out 535Hp at 1.5bar.

I think it´s good to find out where some rare cars are.

Kind regards! Stefan

Talked to Will some days ago, he has a Non V-SPEC model. Also talked to Dean and told him to participate here...

Found Danny's car and this Video in the thread of his son on gt-r.co.uk forum, which was last updated 10/2013, so i believe he still owns it.

Believe there is one or two more to find in the UK...

cheers.

I have know danny for a few years, he was co-owner of the Jap north east forum/ meets here in the UK,

I`m sure if he did not need to sell it he would still be the owner now.....

it was first brought to the UK in 1996 the disaster as the engine only lasted a few hours then Bang!....wrong fuel map!

This is great guys, you know I'm actually really interested in how many of them are V-Specs and how many are standard GT-Rs.

I heard there's only 14 V-specs but that's not looking likely so far!

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
