Would anyone know why my clutch goes soft after a thrash through all gears at WOT Only happens after this and lasts for a few minutes of normal driving. With normal driving never happens. It is one of those cheap purple jobs, the name escapes me. Any help would be much appreciated

did you buy it?

thanks mate

Can anyone quickly confirm that the headlights are the same on R33 GTR and GTST. ??????

cheers dude

Hi all, Anyone ever removed the blade from the standard GTR R33 rear wing. There are 2 allen keys for the adjustment (on each side) and there are 2 more weird hex/star nuts I happen to have the driver to fit these nuts but they are so tight I can't get them off. What is the deal?? Do I have to eat more spinach?

yeah its fairly high....cant adjust any lower.....have tried

Thanks I might as well give it a try.....as its probably my cheapest option Have now bled clutch and still same Cheers

Thanks mate Did it yesterday and very pleased Don't know why I waited so long!

Yeah I did the nulon additive with Castrol oil. Maybe I need to go better oil but thought with the Nulon would be sufficient Haven't tried the clutch bleed yet I suppose that is next, as I agree with you not prepared to pull apart yet

That's what I thought But why would I be able to slot it in nice and easily at 5-10km/h into 1st if it was? Every time!

Someone must have changed their GTR's blood lately! Can anyone confirm sump plug size? It's playing on my mind ))

Does anyone know how to adjust bonnets I have searched and everyone says that the only adjustment is at the latch and the stops I have tried this to no avail. (even replaced the stops with new one's from Nissan.) The bonnet sees to be shifted to one side right from the hinges (at the windscreen) i.e the gap on one side is too big all the way down to the bottom, and so the other side is almost touching the guard all the way down. Can you loosen the hinge bolts and push the whole bonnet to one side?

Hi guys and gals, Anyone one know how to diagnose gearbox problems out there? My 33 GTR (only recently purchased) has a gearbox issue. Hard to get into 1st gear. When cold almost impossible (hard to get into any gear), so I have to "force" it into 4th gear and then I can slip it into 1st. When at normal temp it is easy to get into any gear but a lot of the time still hard to get into 1st. This is all while car is stationary. Once moving easy to get into all gears at all times. So my work around is to either slip it into 1st just before cars stops moving (if I come up to a stop sign) or if stopped at lights I slip it into 4th and then straight into 1st (goes into 1st really easy using both methods) I have changed gearbox oil and still same Any ideas Do you think gearbox or clutch problem? I have one of those cheap "purple" clutches. Heavy duty but cheap...can't think of the name at the mo. The only thing that points me to a clutch problem is that from cold it makes a bit of a bearing noise on first take off and you can feel a vibration thru the pedal. Goes away after that. Any ideas??? Please

Thanks Brandon That puts my mind at ease Was wondering what would happen if it "missed" at WOT at 8000 revs. It seems to only happen (or I notice it) at cruising revs

Sorry for the late reply YES I do have a power FC Never heard of this but I am only a few years old into these great cars I can live with it! It's not just a plug connection problem to the PFC?

Hi all, Just a small annoying problem with my baby When driving I get a total "miss" every once in a while It's like engine stops for a millisecond and then continues fine I have tried to find a pattern but there doesn't seem to be any Can be any speed, any gear, just random I am thinking maybe fuel pump? Any ideas

SAUWA used to be awesome What happened?????

mine has been working fine after the mod 1 year now

Thank you for your replies I have done some more research and am very confused now Some people are reporting same problem as me, some are not Can anyone definitively say a vspec r33 is supposed to have an M12 x 1.25 I suppose my next step is to wait for next oil change and measure the plug

Definately sump plug Are you guys sure a vspec has a M12 sump plug?

Hi all, Can someone offer an explanation for this. I ordered a magnetic sump plug for my GTR and was told all sump plugs for skyline R33 are same M12 x 1.25 When I went to replace it the original was much larger (maybe M20) but I didn't compare the thread size The possibilities are that it was bored out and tapped to a bigger size, OR that they have told me the wrong size Can anyone confirm what the case would be

It's easy Remove the light stalk 2 or 3 screws from memory and pull it out solder over 2 links (its on SAU) all done I have done it to 3 cars now and it takes 1 min to remove and 1 min to reinstall time taken to solder 2 spots added equal about 10 min job
