Just purchased 1996 R33 what now???


Recommended Posts

Hi guyz i just purchased a silver 1996 R33 GTsT,66,000 genuine kms, stock as a rock with 19" wheels.

What do you recomend to be the first upgrade? i am new to the turbo sean, and i am getting a 3 point alarm and turbo timer fitted.

Should i intercool, bigger turbo, internal engine mods........

or stay with stock and go body kit, suspention?

also do you guyz know of a preformance shop that covers all base's in sydney, near cambeltown/liverpool.

cheers for all the help.

just drive the car for awhile as it is, get a good feel for it, then try make it faster if u want.

ALARM FIRST!

then start with full exhaust , hi flowing panel filter with cold air intake, boost controller and then it starts to get expensive :( also there is a guy on these forums who remaps standard ecus for better performance. i think his name is toshi or something.

enjoy

Eaisest would be a K&N high flow airfilter.

I wouldn't bother with pods and cold air induction kits, it's already a cold air induction as is.

A nice $100..to easy :cheers:

...for starters anyway....hehe

And the best advice without a doubt is to keep searching and reading and re-reading these forums. It's the best for learning all sorts of stuff

Some people even do stuff for you for a case of beer !

    • I've got some bad news unfortunately.  Turns out the car has some serious chassis damage and failed a structural report, which was needed because of a failed roadworthy.   I'm now sitting here wondering wtf I'm supposed to do with a car that I can't register and needs serious body work. 😓 Seriously feeling lost, ripped off and depressed over this. 
    • FYI if interested  Brake rotors got taken down to 389mm for clearance and all things adjusted accordingly #bolton Had a quick retune of the retune to change the VCT window plus some of this and that Took 7 weeks for me to get a barrell of fuel to run my car on the track = W.A Actually attempted to drive this thing on the track after 6 months when this shouldve really been 3 monthly ago Only a few laps - stuff didnt go right because electronic aids in the car mean you drive it a certain way when its indicated they are on and they are actually not things dont go great quickly - car fixed and refreshed + thats been fixed with additional warnings and other thing built in now Noted - even mucking around at prob 60 - 70% the aero was now hitting the ground where it hadnt previously at 100% plus the balance of the car is improved - hence without shock pots etc etc you can tell the new aero additions have done something reasonably significant Suspension out - change the bumps and some packers  Tried to go out again - lightning and thunder storms / rain in Perth for the  first time in 50 years for the hour I had - didnt get out V8SC are now here so no track time at Barbs for many weeks - an going to try go down to our other track a few hours away and try to get in the seat Got the below as a pressie recently - yes I dont mind the odd lego + this is very good I think and if not into lego even can appreciate someones craftmanship of this level  
    • ok will do, cheers guys build thread on M35 Stagea Tuner Facebook group here if you can't wait. 
    • look up "kota the yota" on youtube he runs an export business to the us and specialises in r34's
    • I understand that the R34 ECU can be sensitive to what is going on wrt the coilpacks/loom. You'd be well advised to put a Consult reader onto the diagnostic port and read the codes. The one(s) in the ECU will be the ones most likely to tell you what's going on. The TCS light will be a secondary effect.
