1996 R33 Series 2

SAFC-II (original ECU)

3-Inch Turbo back

Nismo 400R kit

Bilstein suspension

18"s with Federal 595's

Turbosmart gauges

Coil packs

I apologise for the horrible faded decals, the former owner... ugh... They are a pain to remove!

I recently bought this from Sydney, I wanted a car that could be used as a daily but needed work done, new to the turbo side of things and really keen to learn so I wanted something I could slowly fix and clean. Nothing more satisfying than finding a neglected car and saving it! Still new south wales plated, had like 8 months nsw rego!

1996 R33 Series 2

It's the right year and series but needs more doors! Looks Nice, shame about the front bar though...

and + 1 more for Welcomes. :thumbsup:

Nice and welcome ! an R33 was my first turbo. Couldn't swipe the smile off my face for weeks.

Yes, despite all the dramas, you were a very smiley fella. :D

Thank guys! Really is a shame about a lot of things on the car, one of those ones that just needs some TLC. Which means a chance to learn how to do a lot of cool things! I'm trying to clean it up to be a nice daily driver, hopefully finished build will have around 200rwkw's, student funds are horrible for saving however. Hope to see you guys out and about! :cheers:

Haha I do want more eventually, but I'm on fairly limited money being a full-time student working part-time retail. For now I'm cleaning the general car itself and restoring and replacing most of the original and damaged parts. More focusing on reliability and condition until I start earning a little more money :) Who knows though!

I'm a little hesitant to upload photos of my baby until ive cleaned it up a little more :\

I bought it in pretty crappy condition (nothing too major) and have been trying to restore it to its former glory.

He even had different sized spark plugs in there!! :wacko:

1998 R34 GT-T

3" Kakimoto (i believe thats how it is spelt!) Turboback exhaust

Nismo Twin Plate Clutch

19" Wheels (previous owner put them on, no clue what they are)

HKS SSQV BOV (so sexy)

Sound system transferred over from my previous car (bought a while ago still kicks hard!)

BC Suspension (can't remember the exact model but cost me $2100 and worth every damn cent!)

I know that feeling !! When you can only earn $400 a week when you have insurance/rego/phone bill/petrol/girlfriend it gets hard to put any money aside to do stuff to my baby! One day.. One day...

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
