Hello all!

I'm going to finally have a r33-GTR in a few weeks (i'm shopping around for the right one now) after wanting one for the longest time.

I'm super excited so i decided to finally register after lurking for a couple of months :)

I'm also not sure where to ask this question since it's somewhat broad (and i'm new to extensive modifications), but in everyone's opinion what would you find the best mods are for creating that "fast feeling"?

After i buy and replace everything that needs replacing, i planned on doing a cold air intake and potentially more power/weight reduction to get that "slam you back in your seat" feeling i've been chasing ever since i got to ride in a friend's SL55 AMG.

Really appreciate the help and looking forward to getting to know everyone!

Welcome Ashlee. :welcome:

There are lots of threads on here about mods to GTR's from basic (air filters, exhausts, weight reduction) to more advanced (turbos, internals etc) it really comes down to your budget and what you plan to do with the car (street, drag, track work, etc)

You'll find the info you're looking for, just don't wait here for people to answer you. :)

Hey and welcome!

Surprised this thread isn't 5 pages long already :P

On a serious note, I know the feels re the SL55. A guy I work with has an older model I've taken for a spin. It ain't quite stock right now (something like 550hp at the wheels) and he's throwing some more money at it yet! Thing oddly didn't feel all that fast to me....until you look at the speedo :O

      I downloaded the apps (for windows) and Consult 1 doesn't have this function on it for the Consult 1 plug which I'm pretty sure all Skylines have. You would think someone would have a workaround after 30 years for all Skylines which have ABS.

      Also, I don't know the actual ABS system on the skylines, but a sneaky thing could be a piece of electronic equipment that makes the ABS think you're moving, and then same piece can send a signal for a locked up tyre... Activate ABS without slamming brakes...

      The team at OBD2 Australia are pretty good, shoot them an email and ask them. I've dealt with them before for work stuff. I'd be shocked if it didn't work, so long as Consult can activate the ABS. But you might need to use KLine for it which would be the stopper, as I don't think that piece does KLine comms.

      Yeah and hence my ghetto way of slamming the brakes, get the ABS to cycle, rebleed seems to be a sensible workaround.

      Hey! Happy to help. Nothing inherently wrong with the adapter, it's more so with Brett Collins himself. He gave me a lot of incorrect information when I was in contact with him and was extremely rude when I challenged him. He stated I could not use any aftermarket twin plate clutches except for his own, not to use the dush shield, bla bla bla and it was all BS.  Collins stated to cut roughly 14mm's off the housing, I took off 15mm to make room for the dust shield. I would confirm with whatever adapter manufacturer you're using.
