Hi All, 

Like to introduce myself. My name is Dan, live in Melbourne been a long time viewer of the forum but now I am a member. So excited that I've been lucky enough to pick up a 1993 R33 GTS-T White Pearl. 
Been looking for Skyline since I was a teenager, couldn't afford them during the sexspec days of 2000's but now I am all grown up and have got my hands on a pretty nice one. Needs some work but happy put in the hardwork and learning. 

I will post regularly with build updates etc, please don't smash me online if I ask any dumb questions. 

Looking forward to the future and getting the car up and running. 

Here are some attached photos of my R33. 

Talk soon all!!! wooooo I have a R33

Hi Guys, 

Update. battery was dead and even though charged now, it hasn't got enough cranking amps to start the engine. 

Also have decided to go with a Blitz SE Intercooler kit from Just Jap and use the standard intercooler piping holes. This was also the setup for the old cooler. 

Now need to find a good battery.

    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.  
    • No, you're wrong, and you've always been wrong about this. The Nismo has 2 sets of openings. One is a real 2-way, and the other is a 1-way. There is no 1.5-way possible with the ramps that they offer. A real 1.5-way does exist. That Cusco stuff I posted is a prime example. If the forward drive ramps are, say 55°, and the overrun ramps are, say, 30°, then you will get about half as much LSD effect on overrun than you do on drive. It is real, it realy works. OK, you're slightly right. The Nismo has 55° and 45° ramps on the 2-way, so it does offer less LSD effect on overrun. But, I think that just means that they've (probably) sensibly established that you do not want actually equal LSD effect on overrun. You just want "quite a lot, but not quite as much as the drive LSD effect".
    • Just wanted to unearth this and post my baby with the new front ❤️😝 Took her to my wedding rehearsal today. Next up is getting wide skirts (after wedding)
