Nearly finished the R33 series II sedan project, wondering what the general feelings on the car are, being something a little different from the usual 33 coupes getting around. Specs are:-

96 GTST Type M Sedan

King Springs

Bilstein Shocks

DBA 4000 series slotted rotors front and rear

Cusco Caster Rods, Front strut brace

Custom Oil Catch Can

Stock GTR exhaust

R33 GTR Rims

Apexi TT

Pretty stock, but this car is really growing on me, I like the shape. Just gotta fit the stereo and give it a bit of tint.

It was never meant to be anything wild. Just something nice to drive around as the GTR can be a bit much to drive full time.

Nah, not really. Just some camber correction at the rear, tunes, tint. Might do the exhaust later but the stock one off the GTR doesn't sound too bad and gave it a bit more go. Might do a bigger radiator and oil cooler, bit paranoid about the heat up here and I like to take the cars on the track every now and then.

Nice ive got a SII R33 Sedan, found any nice body kits? Im thinking of keeping mine fairly stock, no major mods apart from upgraded clutch and 3in straight through muffler? I see you have the coupe indicator assembly as well, do you have the fog lights hooked up? BTW where did you get the clear side indicators? Keep up the good work, the SII sedans are sweet and yours is real nice

I see you have the coupe indicator assembly as well, do you have the fog lights hooked up? BTW where did you get the clear side indicators?

Yeah, I lost the original indicator assembly during compliance, apparently they are not ADR compliant???? The fog lights are all hooked up, and I took the clear side indicators off the coupe before I sold it, amongst other things. I think I originally got them off UAS??

Do the GTR wheels fit OK on the front, what size tires do you have on their.

Thanks

They fit ok, really fill the guards out though as you can see from the pics. The fronts do rub a little at the front though on the inside on full lock. Tyres are standard GTR size at the moment, 245/45 R17. I have another set of 17x8 rims at home I will fit when these tyres are done, just want to use these tyres up, didn't want them in the first place but had to for compliance of the GTR :P .

Love it!

Best 4 door ive seen, ide love to do something similar to this in the future.

Have the GTR for yourself and the weekends, and the 4door for the nice get around family car :)

Who did you import the 4door through again jason?

    • So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You don't need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator but depending on your plans you may need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic
    • If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.
    • LOL, all of the CAI like Craig I just need to put a hole saw through my bumper Done and dusted, the car runs, which is nice, I'll take it for a spin when the weather clears up Just need to put the bumper back on for good
    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
