Hi guys, My daily driver has 4x100 stud pattern. I'd like some decent wheels on it but can't find any 16/17/18" wheels that are 9" or wider with that stud pattern. All sweet wheels seem to be 5x114.3. Can I get 25mm spacers that will bolt onto my 4x100 hub and give me a 5x114.3 stud pattern on the "wheel side"? If so, where can I find these from? I've done some googling but can't seem to turn up much. Thanks, Isaac

I put R33 GTR seats in my R33 GTST and it moved me over an inch downwards. Whereas my head almost touched the roof, now i'm not even close. So different seats might be all you need?

Yes, I do I've got somebody coming to look at it this morning. Your welcome to come and check it out weekdays after 4 or anytime on the weekend

Hi GF-ER34-006129 GGKBRTFR34UDAAKJ Thanks

More pictures, you say? Why, yes!!

I don't know if these pictures are relevant to the thread any more, but here goes

Thanks, SilverS2. Glad somebody appreciates all the work that has gone into it It's heartbreaking, but i've seen R34's asking for twice as much but end up selling for not much more, obviously nowhere near as much work done to them, just the way the market is

Pretty sure the new BMW turbo 335i does this. Wastegate is open always, unless you put your foot down, then it closes, and then regulates boost. This way, it fails "open" so you would never accidently get an overboost situation

Recommend An R33 Gtst Clutch
islade replied to islade's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
Cool, thanks Just sent them an Email -
I want to get a "FULL MONTY" but don't think i can justify the expense for a 250kw GTST. I've got an Exedy Cushion Button at the moment but the clutch feels pretty heavy. I think it's on the way out though, but i'm over the "heavy pedal" feel coz it's been this way for a while. I still want something that can handle a few hard launches though What do you guys recommend?

R33 Gtr In Tank Regulator Remove Or Not?
islade replied to leeroy_25's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
Where can I get one of these? I put a bosch 040 in my car, and now i need to prime the pump in the morning before starting the car as the pump obviously didn't come with a valve -
I've got an R33 i just painted orange in january. Then the turbo died so i spent $5000 replacing it with an external gated 3076... check my posted topics to see it advertised for sale. if your interested, give me a call

PRICE DROP TO $10,000

PRICE DROP TO $11,000

Well i'm not desperate to sell, but there's no point advertising a car for sale if the price is unrealistic... If you guys were me, what would you be advertising my car for? This is a very informative thread

Could y'all tell me what you believe i should be selling my R33 for? http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/369566-orange-r33-skyline/

1993 Skyline R33 GTS-T 122,000km. $12,500 Hey, I've owned (and loved!) this car for the last 5 years. After repainting the car in January, the turbo died. Rather than replacing the stock turbo, I had a much bigger one installed. In hindsight, that was a bad idea, as I've now lost all my license points as the car accelerates so easily. To ensure that I don't lose my license because I need it for work, I've bought a Hyundai excel. SERVICING The car has 122,000km's on it. I had a major service done at 100,000km's which included a new heavy duty radiator, spitfire coilpacks, air con regassing, as well as the usual timing belts, spark plugs, etc. I have it serviced every 5,000km's by Gavin Wood AUTOTECH. Rebuilt and Re-shimmed diff. INTERIOR The interior looked a bit dated and old, so I've replaced everything I could to make it more comfortable and modern looking. This includes a Series II Instrument Cluster, Genuine R33 GTR Seats, Leather Steering Wheel, new leather hand brake boot, gear boot and centre console cover, GTR gearknob, and custom-made R33 floormats. If you have ever been in a normal GTS-T, you will see and feel how much nicer this is. The stereo consists of an Alpine head unit (iPOD and USB input), and front and rear 6.5" splits running from a boot mounted amplifier. EXTERIOR Series I R33's aren't very attractive, so I performed a full Series II conversion including Series II headlights and grill, LED taillights, Trial front bodykit, and Series II rear spoiler. The car has 18" Wheels with Federal 595 Tyres. The car was originally dark gray, but was resprayed in Electric Orange in January, which has yellow in it when viewed in the sun. The car is lowered on TEIN suspension, with rolled front and rear guards. ENGINE All engine work has been done by Gavin Wood AUTOTECH. Genuine Garrett GT3076 (0.82 exh housing) with 50mm External Wastegate. PowerFC (Z32 AFM and 480cc Nissan S15 injectors) Full 3" metal intake and exhaust. Front Mount Intercooler and Turbosmart BOV. 250kw with Dyno Sheets on conservative street tune. PROBLEMS All the usual R33 problems that happen at this age have been addressed. I've had the drivers power window relay fixed (R33 drivers power window often stops working after 15 years), air con buttons fixed (they occasionally break). The clutch "friction point" is very close to the floor. I had the master and slave cylinder's rebuilt, which didn't help. My mechanic said it's not worth fixing until I am replacing the clutch, which I haven't done yet as it's still very grippy. I've owned this car for 5 years and really don't want to let her go, but it's either that or 1 more speeding fine causing a loss of license (and my job!). Please, no test pilots! Call or SMS Isaac anytime on 0421 517 163 My workplace has bad phone reception so between 8-4 I can be reached on (07) 5573 8572
