ok i know what he is saying, he prefers r32, personally i do the same, however, i would have to say r33 is prolly a better daily driver, more room etc, but personally i just think the r32 has more of an edge, and its more of a meaner sportas car with sharper edges, rather the curves of the r33, but i still accept all skylines as very brilliant vehicles...

I drive my R33 GTR everyday. Now my car has had a few more mods than your everyday Skyline out there.

The only thing I find a little annoying (but not enough to take the car off the road) is the twin plate clutch in peak hour traffic.

Besides that, all is well. If don't fang it everywhere, fuel consumption is still pretty good.

GTR Daily driver??

I start work at 7am and finish at 7pm need my coffee on the way to work and need to relax on the way home. I have no parking at work and every time i checked my car there were kids hanging around the car, and so i bought a soarer ltd as a daily driver. Awesome, smooth, holds my coffee, and no clutch.

Everyones different after a while the soarer makes you feel about 40 yrs old and after a while the GTR will give you the shites.

I've know fatz for a bit... and not that he needs defending... but I know that he is a man that likes a car that has a set of gonads to match his own... ie, and those that have followed him around the creek will know, he is ABSOLUTLY crazy and expects his car to match.

Who here can honestly say that they have destroyed a set of new tyres in ONLY ONE day?

Shit my beer just ran out... who was it that owned that GTR with vbslab plates??? NEED YOUR HELP!

      CD009 RB Conversion

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.

      Yep that is correct. It allows you to adjust the short throw range from what I can tell

      R32 GTST - 600KW+ RB28/CD009 Build

      Car has been running great, I've put about 300km's of break in time on it. First thing that stands out with properly sealing rings is no more noticeable crankcase smell coming out of my catch can. This may seem insignificant, but the constant smell while driving around was infuriating. It's also nice to see my oil level remain stable. Two new issues have developed that I only noticed this weekend though. There's a very noticeable driveline vibration past 100kmh. I only noticed it now as I've been babying it under 100kmh in the backroads. This comes as no surprise as I'm running a one-piece shaft, and I paid zero attention to my driveshaft angle when I put everything back in. I also have a fair bit of voltage drop on hot starts. The starter audibly is forcing. No issues on cold start though. I must not have removed all the paint under my main block ground during assembly. I'll try and take care of both those issues this week once the kids are asleep.  I also received all the parts I was missing for my direct port setup. I will hopefully have pictures of that up soon. I'm hoping to get back on the dyno the week of June 30th as I'll be on vacation. I'm confident I should be able to make north of 500rwkw on pump gas and WMI. I'll go back again later this summer with E98, but I want to confirm my ethanol content sensor is working properly first. I've never seen it read anything but 11%. This makes sense for our 10% ethanol content pump gas here, but I would expect the occasional movement between fill ups.

      The Evolution Of "night Fury"

      75% complete. Will now need to get a new axle with 5x114.3 hubs and then figure out how to customize some mudguards for it once the wheels are on.

      Trailer prep is underway... Lined up the wheel to get a rough indication of how it would sit Then removed all the bits (as far as possible) and gave the frame a light sand and quick lick of paint   Then added some carpet
