Hey guys, I am advertising my car on here as I have tried on Ebay with not much success. Car is also listed on the r31 skylineclub. Here goes, as honest as possible.

Exterior:

Grey over silver paint, excellent condition bar the boot which is fading (am looking at painting it soon). Not a dent anywhere, absolutly straight as an arrow. Was a one owner car before me, ederly man, country car. Has Ti rims, and silo boot spoiler, and s3 hotplates without the plastic covering. Just spraypainted door handles, window frames, and rubber mouldings around the car have been shined up. Looks very good indeed.

Interior:

Flawless blue silo interior, even with great original steering wheel. Has slight rip on drivers side seat, but seat covers which can come with the car cover it. Cd player with 6 inch speakers all around. Shit cd player mind you.

Engine Bay:

Mods: 2.5 extractors into 2.5-2.75 inch custom exhaust. XF Throttle body with custom stainless steel intake piping, with Pod filter and CAI. Am thinking of advancing the timing but will retard it back if i can sell it. Great car, drives fantastic. Manual conversion was done last weekend (20th Jan or there abouts).

Suspension and brakes;

Recently replaced (3 weeks ago), ball joints, sway bar bushes front and rear, and radius rod bushes. GT gas suspension with stock springs. Has dual swaybars, can remove one if buyer doesnt want. Strut brace is on. RWC tyres, LSD is tight as a mo fo.

Guys this car is absolutly awesome, it sounds mean as and makes little kids cry due too the noise. It is legal noise though, but probably one of the best N/a rb30e's I have ever heard. Goes bloody good as well, LSD is tight. Time for some pictures! Reason for selling is, I am going too melbourne in a few months for an apprenticeship with the navy, so i dont really need a car while im down there.

You can contact me on msn/email [email protected], or 0418754471, too ask more questions, more pics, or to arrange an inspection/meeting place.

Oh and those stone chips in some pictures have all been fixed up :P

      High temp brake fluid?

      By Komdotkom · Posted

      Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!

      Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!

      Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

      HKS Vcam Step Pro Issues

      By believer · Posted

      I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
