Where to get R33 timing Belt?


Recommended Posts

I was wondering where the cheapest place in Sydney is to get a timing belt for R33 RB25 DET.

I think nissan are about $95 or so aren't they? What's the best anyone has done?

Also the seals? Cam and crank..and the bearings. I think I saw a thread saying about $60each for the 2 pulley bearings from a wholesaler or something.

Cheers

Hornsby Nissan give a discount to NSW Club members (I think it's trade price?)...no idea how much a timing belt costs or how much it'd cost you as a non-member but they might be worth a call.

I just bought a GATES - Says Made in Japan 3X Stronger!

at the Autosalon yesterday from HorsePower in a Box for $100.

Seemed like great value to me as the std Nissan are similar price.

Check out their website...

a 3 x stronger belt wont help you if one of the tensioners snap off (Mine did, needed a full rebuild)

See if you can check yours while the belt is out. Not too sure if it was the bearing that failed but the whole thing sheared off and was sitting at the botom of the cavity.

Good point Jordan, well worth checking, mine seemed OK after 120K Klms when I checked it after doing head up.

SkylineGeoff found some at a great price recently.

    • This is the part I was unprepared for. I mean, thinking about it now, the first day I collected my car from the importer someone posted a photo of it on the highway to an online JDM page which my friend then sent me. I drove straight to the office to pick up some things and was immediately swarmed by about ten college kids -  "how much power" "why no wing" etc. The next couple times I went out I didn't really notice anything, there was a "why no wing" at a service area at some point. Then during the fourth time out driving at the Nurburgring I got the "do a drift" - the bastard cut it out in this clip. The title in itself is a red flag. As you may have guessed, I am not a fan of the attention. This leads me to wondering what to do with the car in the future; I'll see how this year goes and it may be garaged, which it mostly is already, or maybe even sent back to Japan  to also be garaged and driven occasionally on visits. Fortunately my daily is as interesting as drying paint.   
    • I couldn't get this to work right, New clean IACV, coolant seems to flow and solenoid functions, but again as soon as I plug it in the idle raises, I ran the car for a good 1/2 hour messing around with various things it, no vac leaks. At one point with the IACV plugged in I was able with the adjustment in the side of IACV turned all the way in get it idle down a little to around 1000, but no lower, and it would surge, I unplugged the IACV engine rpms drop to about 350, turned the adjustment about 3 turns in , set idle to around 800 rpms' and it idles smooth. I set the idle stop screw abut the same so it cant drop below under load. the engine starts, restarts, with no load or with a load seems to run fine. I will have to leave it like this for now as I cant get it to function correctly with the IACV plugged in. One other thing I discovered that might be the reason for some of the issues, the engine in the car is a RB25det neo from a Stagea along with the Stagea ECU. so alot of wiring, plumbing etc that is typically there in a R34 is not. 
    • Hi all, Trying to seek some assistance with my issue. I'm currently doing a complete overhaul of my suspension / driveline, on my r33 gtr and have completed stripped down the front assembly. I had purchased a new pair of front knuckles (the painted silver ones in the pictured) They were advertised by the shop aswell as other retailers online to be compatible with the entire 4wd R chassis, however when trying to fit the new pair, they don't line up with the ball joints (from the lower control arm) and the steering tie rod.  The other knuckle pictured is what came off the car, everything fits up to it perfectly, however I've been unable to figure what variant they are from originally.
