I took a Nissan R33 1994 GTST for a test drive, was an Auto and I didnt think an Auto would be that great at all.. Little did I know it totaly kicked ass$ss, Turbo kicked in at the normal 3500rpm and I almost wet myself, torque, gear changes in the Auto everything was awesome. I joined this forum the very next day.

Mods it had = 3" exaust + Filter

Im now about to get a GTST R33 within the next week.

Hmm, well my first was a stock standard R33 Gts-t, was not modified...the guy bought a lemon basically, was in really bad condition, anyway, he let me take it for a spin...

i really like the way it sat on the road, it seems to be a very predictable chassis, controllable oversteer and great "bum feel" hehe...i diddn't mind it, just not enough usable power band IHMO...so as for power and torque, it wasnt very surprising...

Second, however was a really sckmik orange with gold pearl R32 Gts-t in QLD, hmm nice, was high flowed and suspension work, upped boost, now that was a nice machine, liked the torque and power of that let me assure you...

Orange R32

...speaking of which, does any1 know this car or the owner may be on the forum???

so now i have stepped up once again, and am soon to have my 32 GTR :( i just love the thrust back you get in the seat of a skyline :) hehe, why would you want to drive anything else...

Firsy time(w/turbocharged skyline) was about 3-4 months ago....

- R32 GTS-t w/RB25DET, stock boost, only mods were exhaust & POD Filter

- I couldnt believe how quick and stable this thing was! Biggest supprise! The feeling of boost coming on was awesome! So stable, even with stock suspension tramlined around tight turns fast.....I was smiling all day after that...hehe :( (Now gonna be on the lookout for an R32 GTS-t end of year/start of next yr - SO BEAUTIFUL)

my first ride in a skyline, was in an R32 GTS-t, totally stock exept for an exhaust and 12psi boost. It was raining that day so we had the tail out everywhere! I was previously looking for a 180SX after a mate took me for a ride in one, but the skyline changed my mind instantly. So yeah, the power and torque really blew me away. The stability and handling was very impressive too. I was hooked and within 2 months i'd bought my own!

thats excellent to hear champ, my mate bought a stock 180, which is now heavily modded, its awesome, but im super happy with my skyline, they are awesome cars. just take care of it and yourself and you'll get along fine.

cheers

The first time I drove a skyline was a mates he had and Red 95 GTST, before this I new of skylines but hadn’t really payed attention to them until this night. We had like 4 people in the car, and when I put the foot down and felt myself being pushed into the seat and could hear the turbo spooling up, I was buzzing, I loved it. Then again after driving a telstar for 5 years anything would seam quick. It was only running about 10psi and exhaust was a little bigger then standard. When I jumped out I said to my self I’m getting a skyline my mind was made up. My mates kept on telling me “get a VP SS or VS SS”. But how much can you do to a commodore.

Have never looked back. Go the SKYS

my first was a stock 33gtst and i was so disappointed its was guttless because it was a fresh import from the car yard.

my mate convinced me to try a few more the next was 33gtst with exhaust pod and 10 pounds then i was impressed....

now i own 2........ mmm skylines

oh-ho-yeah... the first was my GT-R32... such fun.

what can i say... im addicted to boost. its almost stock, but on a cold night, it feals like an F1 racecar...

one of the first times i opend it up, i remember like it was a week ago... hang on a sec, it was... i know it was stupid, but i just had to. i was fanging it, and i got up to about 170 and realized what i am doing, then backed off. the G.O. and the WHO are amazing

In 2001 I was introduced to full throttle on a 750hp midnight purple r33 GTR, which the owner paid a cool $130,000 for.. It was a nutcase, and also the first r33 skyline i'd ever seen, i knew nothing about skylines and had no idea Nissan could make something so bonkers! That was then.. :(

first one i drove was an R33 auto (didn't want an auto, but they were shoving the keys at me so i thought, why not) and it felt good but i couldn't really give it bit..

second one was a manual R33 and he let me take it out on a back road - and this was the first time i actually put my foot down in a turbo skyline and OMG!! I knew I'd made the right choice :(:D

ordered one thru an importer soon after ;)

First time was back in 2001ish in an R33 GTST with front mount, huge exhaust, hi-flow/aftermarket turbo and boost controller. The thing hammered, and I knew I definately had to have a skyline after.

About a year later I still didnt have my skyline and went for a ride in an R32 GTR with N1 turbos, exhaust, front mount. That thing scared me sh!tless and 12 months later I had my own R32 GTR sitting in the garage (now running ~330kw at the wheels).

first time was in JETT R32 GTR That ran a 10.8!! FARKKK./.. i think it went by me.. arr fark $hit... and grabbing the door handle.. im sure mirko could confirm that hehe .. hsit myself.. i got abit of whiplash! well shock mostly.. makes me want a big single but i went for the n1s for the street... big single on drag though.. slams you back...

    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
