Get some susupension bushes m8 appaerntly they help with traction off the line quite alot. U get less axle tramp and that kinda stuff so u can really throw it off the line. Do a search for 'pinapples' and u should find something. :D

Hicks, your black r33 looks incrediably like a r32 to me. Maybe I'm going blind. To run into the 13's you need a low 60 foot time, around 2.1-2.3, which means you need good off the mark traction. Whiteline make a diff craddle kit, its 4 poly-urethene bushes that adjust the rear craddle for maximum traction. Also a good set of tyres, dunlop f901's or sp9000's will do the trick and depending on your rim size. If you've got a nice set of 17x9" deep dish rims you can stretch some 255/35 or something over them, maybe 235/45. you want something with a fair amount of sidewall for flex when you launch. btw: I've only got a cat back exhaust, electronic boost controller set to 0.8bar, hks pod filter, heavy duty clutch and a set of 225/55 r16 dunlop sp9000's and I ran a 14.11 wednesday night just gone. Rev210 (dave) has got a turbo back exhaust, running around 8-10psi boost and he ran a 13.8!

nah, its deffinetly an r33. The only difference on mine is that I have had the rear nissan badge(boot lock) removed and filled over. Some tosser ripped it off!

My rims could be a problem, there 245's but theres not much side wall as the rim size is 19''. Looks good though!

i think i saw you on leach hwy near risely st a couple of times, the bootlock has been filled, and its still got grey primer right?

I have seen 2 different black R33s there, but i definately saw 'hicks' i could be wrong about the primer though.

Nice car all the same.

mine does that.. sometimes when i turn the car on it does so and the climate control wont turn on until its all clicked out.. im thinking its the air directional doozies or some crap *shrug*..

if it aint broke.. dont fix it.

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
