R33 Gts-T Brake Fail
Legendaryl replied to notebook5555's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
Check your lines and bleed your brakes. See that they are still round. That's plastic is probably approaching its 20th birthday -

R33 Carbon Fibre Hood

Mad dog. I always hear stories of cops being dickheads to my mates. But then I realised a key fact oblivious at first. My mates are dickheads themselves. If they were cops they would be the nastiest fu(kers ever. Attitude goes along way when dealing with the law. Don't get caught doing something naughty. And they love the "Yes officer, no officer, 3 bags full officer"

I doubt my near 20 year old stock RB25det can sustain 300kw reliably. Could of had a lot of abusive, neglective owners in nearly 2 decades.

Who To Take The Car For A Dyno Tune J.e.m Or Powertune
Legendaryl replied to gtr0321994's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
Unigroup said the same thing to me. I thought Powertune was the shit from what I saw, now I have seen the light in Unigroup. Maybe they are only interested in people who do big dollar builds. Meh. Yea that was a big bonus for Powertune. They are very close where I live. Wont be seeing a single cent from me ever again. My mate (actual mate not mate's mate's brother's butcher's mate) had his tune stuffed by them. Couldnt get a SR20 black top in a sil80 with GT2871r working properly. I thought this was standard shit for them? Which again returns to my theory of them only caring if you spend big bucks. -
Op, Looks like the "seasoned" members have come in. What is your definition of thrashed? As far as I'm concerned you can run a car hard (within reason no boucing of the rev limiter for ages, no flat changing) and as long as its properly serviced it will be fine. If a car cannot handle being pushed to the limits day in day out with SOUND maintenance than it is a piece of shit that is not worth your time. To me thrashed is hard driving without maintenance. That is what will destroy an engine, gearbox etc. Chasing 300kw on a stock bottom end. Drive your Skyline hard and service it fastidiously. It will last you a long time.

Why can't you rev it past 6? I just bought a r33 gtst. Looks like I made a big mistake.

Who To Take The Car For A Dyno Tune J.e.m Or Powertune
Legendaryl replied to gtr0321994's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
I've been to Powertune. Wasn't happy. I knew what my SR20 had a boost leak. "No that's not it" I insisted 5 times it was a boost leak "Nah you've plumbed this in wrong, and its your 02 sensor" Took 2 hours for an apprentice to fit something on a fully qualified mechanic could of done in 1. $200 bill. Drive off and car still runs like shit. Go to Unigroup $60 later turns out the bov was leaking. So yea IT WAS A BOOST LEAK. The end. -
Thanks man, that one reason why I got it. Inside is pretty tidy, all floor mats, carpets good underneath no missing trim, only evidence of a crappy sound system install lol. Yea I was being sarcastic. Her last name was Hizola or Hizolo and she lived from approx 1928 to 2008. My guess is she was Filipino. You the same Darksky34 on Jdmst?

Thanks man. Here's a write up I did, included some pics too. So I sold my S15, due to me wanting to get into property, become loaded and retiring at 40, so I can play with cars. To replace the S15 I bought a White 96 R33 GTST Series 2 Skyline. The paint is not the greatest and I didn't care. My main search criteria was its mechanical health. I was scoping out R33's. My budget was 9K MAX for everything - transferring of rego and getting it up to standard. I saw x2 neglected R33's, x1 unroadworthy R33's, a pushy salesman, x3 very nice well kept examples (one of out my range, one was sadly a series one =( , one was keen on getting but got nabbed), got time wasted, and there was one prick seller all in a week. R33's are plentiful and Daz was on the prowl. This lucky guy put his ad up for 6 hours and I bought it. It came with 170,056 km (Believe-able, prefer this than some shonky rewound example) and it looked the part. All wear and tear corresponded with what I was told. -Paint is shit as mentioned (I plan on getting scars anyway) light panel damage but the chassis is straight. -Engine has noisy lifters, but threw up a good compression result -Gearbox not silky like that clean white one I saw but I can still get about 100,000km out of it if I take care of it. -Diff = no wierd noises It came with a unknown TBE, Enclosed POD, Otomoto FMIC, Apexi boost controller mated to a Apexi Power FC D JETRO running on a MAP sensor. NOIIICE. Wanky HKS SSQV with loud attachment. NFS CF hood. Recaro sr2 seat? Hicas lock bar. Fuel pump. Problems - It has this problem where when I give it when it gets to 4-5K rpm its sputters and then goes into limp mode, I initially thought it was a boost leak, then spark plugs. I took it to see Mark from Unigroup his confident its the fuel pump. A Walbro 255l/h is on the way. First thing to go was the CF hood. Stands out too much and with the HKS SSQV I didnt want to get familiar with the local constabulatory. Disconnected the BOV, until I can find a blanking plate and just flutter 24/7. This is what I've noticed so far with the R33. They all have this nifty seat belt arm that keeps it extended so you dont have to reach that far back +1 The motor feels more torquey and monstrous than a SR20. I LOOVE the exhaust note and roar. I always thought my Sr20 sounded droney and boring. +1 Sparkplugs are a bitch to change. IC piping is in the way plus there are 6 of them lol. And I thought changing plugs on my Sr20 was a bitch -1 A lot more space in the engine bay ie Oil filter is easy to get to, so is the fuel filter +1 Tow points at the front are further out so its easy to jack up +1 I like how on the RB25 box the drain and fill plugs are 1/2 inch grub screws, instead of 24mm bolts on a SR20 that require washers everytime. Teflon and your good to go. Second thing I did was service it. The guy I bought it off was either noob or is a very good actor. He obviously didn't give a f**k about it. Lucky it wasnt too late to rescue this fine piece of hardware. Automotive Archaeology is fun. 1. Liquid Moly Engine Detox - Expensive stuff. I think it worked. 2. Penrite HPR 10-40 Full Synthetic oil. 3. Had some Redline MT90 left over and bought some Diff fluid. Always undo the filler plug first my friend learnt this the hard way. I like how on these gb they are 1/2 inch grub screws, instead of 24mm bolts on a SR20 that require washers everytime. Then the drain f**king hell look at that. As the fluid came out it didnt look that bad. No big pieces, just mass metal shavings. I let it drain while I started on the diff. f**k me dead Nissan PUT THE FILL PLUG ON THE OTHER SIDE. Now the diff fluid look black as f**k. Again. Mass metal shavings, no big shit thank f**k. Now filled the gearbox up with MT90 using my contraption. This thing is sick. Then the diff and clean up. That can in the corner is the best degreaser I've ever had. You lot should buy. Taking it for a spin the box felt better. But Redline MT90 is not magic as people make you believe. I will try Redline Superlight Shockproof next time. If that doesnt work then Redline is shit in my books. Now today I wanted to change my fuel filter but had to take the fuel pump fuse out. This was in the boot behind this. Now I'm not a fan of sound systems or the CD the previous owner left in the car. So it had to go. The stuff he used aint that half bad. Just the execution was poor HAHAHAHA he mounted it wonky. Looks better. Boot space is the tools and extra wheels only. Pulling up the seats I found papers of a lady that died in 2008, scissors and a notepad with an address. Nothing unusual. My fuel pump came in the mail too. That's it guyths I'm off. Enough shit talking on the net for me today.
