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.

    • Well as I will have both S1 and S2 front parts i will see what works best out of the two. Im not fussed if i need to drill extra holes, and im a big fan of Nutserts/rivet nuts and a nice painted dome head bolt as a way to hold stuff in place where plastic clips have broken and are hard to source new ones
    • Yeah truthfully it seems like the headlight supports for the ALTIA and S2 should be the same, but they aren't. I can only guess that the grill area of the Altia bar is different to the grill area of the S2 bar. Either that or it's due to the S1 bar having an angle up to the center bar that the Altia doesn't, or something. That said, I recently bought an Altia bar myself, and I fit it over the S1 brackets and thought "Yes, this will all work fine" so even as I doubt my own words as I post, I also daresay you'll be okay.
    • Me too. Apparently the new version of Invision will allow some customisation so look forward to a 'Love' reaction and a new 'Like' icon.
    • Which injectors are you using? It's likely the fuelling is off also, so as above.
    • Awesome to know. I have a Series 1, and When pulling my front bumper off for the first time i realised my reo/crash bar was a bit worse for wear, and was going to try pick up a better one soon just so i can replace it. Someone is selling a full series 2 front bar and brackets for a decent price, so was going to probably reuse my brackets and install the new second hand reo/crash bar. I also have a genuine Altia body kit to do up, spray and put on, and not sure if that will use the series 1 or series 2 brackets for the front bumper, so having both will be handy, and knowing i can drill holes out to make stuff fit between series is also handy to know!
