Hi All,I need some advice on draining the coolant from my 33GTR where best to disconnect hose for best drain and how to bleed after refill and which is the best coolant to use Cheers Greypearl

Thanks mate,So it all hinges on whether you can undo the plugs first and have a suitable pump,last time I did it I did it all from the outside with a sludge pump,new one of course and it was quite laborious then I read about filling the transfer case through the gearstick and thought maybe I missed the transfer case oil change last time and was a bit worried but now I'm more worried that I put the wrong oil in the transfer case as I don't remember buying any ATF fluid yikes may have put smurfs blood in there cause I tried that in the gearbox found it didn't let the synchros work properly as it was too slippery and also since then had the gearbox rebuilt by Award gearboxes in Sydney to upgrade to Series 3 specs and am now going to use Redline MT90 for it's first change since rebuild,I am not sure whether the Transfer case is part of the gearbox so don't know if it got recoed or not as to whether the right oil ended up in there so all will be revealed in 2 weeks will post up my discovery here when I know thanks for your help,but no-one answered the question about how to remove the Gearstick properly or which coolant to use and how to best drain and refill it,Cheers Greypearl.

See what I mean info that's reliable is hard to find on this topic,so from what's been said so far I assume that there is a fill and drain plug on the outside of the transfer case but it's difficult to get the oil in so people choose to take the gearstick out to fill it and use the filler hole on the side of the case to know when it's full, so you still have to get both plugs undone on the outside so maybe save the hassle of pulling out the gearstick and use a sludge pump to fill from the outside of the case, but that said I still would like to know how to take the gearstick out properly and find the filler hole, Cheers Greypearl.

Hi all, I am about to change all fluids on my 33 GTR and have spent 2 hrs trying to get definitive info on how to access the filler hole for the transfer case through the gearstick,I need detailed info on how to remove it without damaging anything,sorry it seems there is info on this but I can't find it could sks please tell me how this is done and also how to best remove and replace coolant fluid as well and what coolant most gtr owners are using Thanks in advance,Greypearl

Hi,Need a quick reply ,does anyone know if the map reading light between the sunvisors are the same in gtr32 and gtr33 please??cheers Rob.

Thanks again mate,my car is off to the painters tomorrow to get the front bar bonnet and roof resprayed and change to the xenons thats why I needed the quick reply,will the lights be automatically adjusted in the factory or will they need adjusting and if so is it easy to do??Cheers Rob.

Hi, Can any one who has done a xenon light conversion on an R33GTR Series1 tell me if all the brackets required are on the car already or do I need more brackets to fit the series3 lights to my series 1,Cheers Rob.

Hi ,Anyone else know if I will need anything else to do the conversion,Cheers Rob

Thanks mate, Will the plugs stay plugged in with the guide slots filed down?? and I think I read somewhere that I may not have the corner bracket on the series1 that the series 3 has can you clear that up for me??

Hi all, need a quick answer to this question,will I encounter any problems fitting xenons from a series 3 gtr33 to a series 1 gtr33??

Hi Guys,Thanks for the replies,I think I'm going for the group buy as it seems a good price for what you get.Cheers Greypearl.

Hi Nismoid, 245atwk at the moment,I have intententions of 350atwk in the future hence I have already installed a series 3 gearbox,4000lb Jim Berry clutch and I am seeking Xenon lights and better brakes.Cheers Greypearl.

Hi all,I would like to upgrade my standard Brembos,Rotors And Calipers but need to tap into the forums experience on the best quality and value for money package available on the market would appreciate any suggestions,I have 18"x 91/2" Volk VC Pro Wheels from Ray's Engineering,if you need measurements I will get them,Cheers Greypearl.

Hi all,Like everyone else I want a pair of genuine series 3 GTR33 Xenons,if second hand must be in excellent cond pm me or ph:0417032732 Cheers Greypearl.

Hi all,Anyone ever fit a subwoofer in a GTR boot space?? If so,how did you do it,what size speaker and box,and how did you lock it down etc,give me some ideas.Cheers Greypearl.

Dave, Are you saying you can get GTR33 SERIES 3 XENONS,if so how much and in what condition.Cheers GREYPEARL.

Surely someone knows the answer to this question?? GREYPEARL.

Anyone know the answer to this??GREYPEARL.

Hey Johno,I just read in a thread about xenons that the series 3 lights don't have a bracket that attaches to the grill like the series1 do,is this right as another poster told me all that's different is the connector tab which you just trim off??Cheers GREYPEARL.

Thanks for the info mate,GREYPEARL.

Thanks Chris,and the others who replied, I just thought there was something wrong in the door so wanted it fixed so thanks for clearing that up,I think the easiest way to lock all doors whilst in the car driving is to press the key transponder for central locking.Cheers GREYPEARL.

Thanks for the info Darth,but it is a bit far away for me,not much interest in this topic though I'm sure many have the problem.Cheers GREYPEARL.

Thanks for the reply mate,shame you are on the Gold Coast and I am in Victoria,I really think I only need to get the back done as it is noticeable there but I like the handling and don't want to upset the front,whats the labour involved in removing camber arms,pressing out bushes, pressing in new ones, re-installing arms.Cheers GREYPEARL.

Anyone???????

Hi All, I have just measured the ride height on my 33GTR and found it to be 355mm front and 350 rear centre of wheel to guard,only my back tyres wear out prematurely on the insides,can someone tell me if I only need a standard camber kit as I read in this thread, and what is mean't by standard, is the adjustment already there or only after you fit the kit?? how much are they new,and would you bother buying secondhand?? what brand kit should I look for ?? are they hard and or expensive to fit and can any wheel alignment outfit do it,??I have Tein suspension all round.Thanks GREYPEARL
