Hey guys, 

so I recently acquired an R33 from a wrecking yard for 1k originally me and my friend were just going to get the engine and a Toyota celiac and do a long excruciating build to put the two together as a rwd custom build but we thought better of that.

I haven’t worked much on imports but have done a lot on fords and Holdens. Needless to say I have no idea what I have on my hands. Build plate shows and R33 1995 skyline coupe with and RB20e but I so far haven’t seen many others with this engine when doing research. This thing is getting a complete rebuild with a new motor at some point but just wanted to know if anyone had any sort of knowledge on it before I start.

Are they rare or just an extremely uncommon choice of R33?

They're rare (in Oz) because who would want to import a slow-arse bland ugly R33 with 4 stud wheels, no brakes, basic seats, etc etc etc? The only ones that really turned up were accidents, where people thought they were buying an NA RB25, because they didn't know that such rotten pleb spec stuff even existed.

With foresight, it might have been bright to bring in a few thousand of them to stockpile for donor bodies, 20 years later.
