Hey people my son and I cruized past in our blue r33 gtst tonight. I am a noob and have never been to anything or posted before.  I would assume that it was you guys out the front of super cheap at about 9:30pm?  I was going to stop and say Hi!! but my son was a bit nervous to get out of the car (He is 17 and thought you guys looked a bit dodgy  haha?.) We have only had the car since december and have been working on it flat out every weekend. So after 2 months and about $3 grand it has finally become a reliable vehicle.  I would like to be involved with the drive days cruizes and what not. I have wanted a skyline ever since the domination of Gentleman Jim and Skaifey in the R-32 GTR winfield nissan group A touring cars and have finally entered the realm of the NISSAN. Any feedback would be appreciated.

P.S. I am old and crummy at the interweb thingy.  Since we have got the car we have done.  Enigine oil and filter,  fuel filter, Brake fluid bleed and replace, gearbox oil, diff oil with ford l.s.d paste and tons of figure 8's, full new 3" s/s exhaust with 100cell cat and 2xmagnaflow mufflers (i fabricated this), replaced front brake pads and discs (apr slotted), 4 new tyres, lifted the ride height, new coil packs and plugs, new radiator, outer tie rod ends, front castor arm bushes, Re-worked intercooler piping, fitted catch can, new pod filter, replaced snapped turbo studs, inner diff boots, re-wired under the dash, modified the throttle cable and bracket, New gear box boots, New rear speakers. etc.etc. My back is very sore but it was worth it.  Looking cool and going fast that's what cars are for.  My son and I have done nearly all the work in the driveway at home.  Madness!!!

Awesome ! Mind to share some pictures of your car ? :)
Looks like a great night last night, Sorry I couldn't make it. We'll organize something after Race Wars.

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
