I've still got mine. There really isn't much point in taking it out unless you wanna hide a set of fuel pumps in your boot.

You'd be wiser having it in there just incase you find yourself with a flat even though I wouldn't trust my life to them

. plus worse case scenario is it actually acts as a good way to absorb a crash in the rear-end if some dero gets distracted by how nice your car is and forgets to hit the brakes.

I'd like to remove mine but I've had to use it once.

Although without a toolkit (I was lucky and had one on me at the time) there's no point me having it there. I might remove it :P

Doesn't the R33 have the little toolkit behind the panel on the left of the boot ala R32?

i dont have one in my gtr

it didnt come with a jack, and i figure if i cant jack the car up, i cant put a spare tire on, so no point having the spare either

you can buy those cans of stuff you spray into the tyre if you get a flat, that or dad can come rescue me

Yeah, the space saver is in there, although it wouldn't have helped without the tool kit that is supposed to be in there. Only the jack was there, no wheelbrace or jack handle. Took it back to the importer and he checked every Skyline he had and none had theirs either!! Seems they are a hot item in Japan????

    • Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out
    • Talk about noisy. Even when I still had the Tomei under the car I could distinctly hear the tires rolling. And I doubt I ever will need maximum grip like on a track. My GTR will maybe never even see the 600hp mark and I need to get used to the car quite a bit before challenging the limits of its handling. For the next winter storage I think I will get a set of these rubber drive-on thingies that have a tire shaped base. Those supposedly really help prevent flat spots.
    • Well our climate is definitely way less hot overall and the weather can be quite picky at times. I just know that during normal road use or even spirited drives there is no way I'd be able to consistently stay in the operating temperature, and constantly changing the tire pressure would also be a royal pain.
    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
