So Team,

Pulled the trigger and updated from the very much loved 'Sonic' the 4 Door R33 GTST.......................

And purchased yet another 1996 Skyline (to much head shaking from my Wife!).

Picked it up here in Canberra, as it is really clean and had a good build list base to have plenty of fun in.

So what do you do when you buy a new Skyline the day after you buy it?

Take it straight to the track of course!

On the wettest day in Goulburn history.................................... Was fun in a new car though:

Give me a wave if you see me!

^^ Yes, it has obviously been looked after, and TBH I really didn't have to buy it, but I see so many crap ones about that if the right one pops up, grab it. Wanted a 34GTR in BB but couldn't justify the extra $35K.

So, it pretty much has everything done,if you were rebuilding a car, but it has a few issues things that need changing.

Firstly it's running god damn rich... Took me about an hour to clay bar the rear bar after the track day.

So, I'll throw a Haltech, injectors and a decent pump in and an E85 flex tune, while i'm at it.

The -7 Turbos a bit small but are near new so will persevere with them.

Thanks Shaun. She's a beaut. Can you please confirm it has stock AFM's? Looks like it but not 100% sure.

Also, can you remember the flow rate of the fuel pump? Looks like it may be pretty close to maxed as well.

Oh the other thing, are you able to adjust the rear shock dampers like the front? and if so how do you access the knobs?

Cheers,

James

You coming to the track day on 23rd? Be nice to see it then.

Probably!

why on earth did you buy my sway bars James, nice upgrade!!!

Yeah, itchy feet. The guy that bought the 4Door has a nice set of swaybars. Made a huge difference to the body roll.

Oh Ok. How much? Miight be a baindaid solution though. Depends on what ESP come back with price wise for the Haltech.

are you going E85?

IDK how much, don't know if i still have them, but if i do i can let them go pretty cheap. I can have a look if you think you will need them though.

Yeah its just a speed of the streets day.

IDK how much, don't know if i still have them, but if i do i can let them go pretty cheap. I can have a look if you think you will need them though.

    • @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
    • I started removing the tank a while back with the intent to give it a proper clean. Got to a bolt that I couldn't undo completely due to a diff being in the way, so just said f**k it and siphoned the gluggy old fuel out and called it a day. Looking it the tank it looks less corroded than the one in the pics for that billet hanger from Frenchy's anyway. Isn't it the fuel filters job to worry about this stuff? I scraped off most the crusty shit of the hanger but will give it another go before reinstall coz maybe the fuel and return pipes are also full of gunk  
    • Pretty sure it is a common fault. I believe this is the only part you need, but don't quote me as I don't have a V36.  I also believe it is a bit of a pain to change and the device needs to be encoded to the car once it is replaced, so may need someone with the right tools. Buy Genuine Nissan 48700JF00D (48700-JF00D) Lock Set-Steering. Prices, fast shipping, photos, weight - Amayama
    • Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.
    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
