ben, Love the car... Looks VERY nice.

Would hate to think of the $ that went into it. I have spent HEAPS on mine and still doesnt look very special.

Who does most of your work? (mechanical and interior/exterior)

I would say most of the people in his signature.

photochopped or not that would have to be one of, if not the nicest 33 i've ever seen :P

perfect combo. black, black rims with steel lips, dark tint, nice kit, wingless and dropped on its guts.

just perfect!

if you look around the number plate of the commodore in the background you will see its kinda doubled up like the pic has been photo chopped.

but yeh a very sexy looking 33 :(

It is photoshopped a little but at the moment the wheels are too wide to fit under the guards.

Its a bit of a problem lowering a car off the hoist only to find that the guards were sitting on the wheels lol.

The adjustables had to come out and standard suspension put back in.

The only photochop though was the height.

Once the car has had the guards rolled it will be sitting that low ;)

Pic before the bar was painted.

The bar is 3cm off the round, Intercooler 4.5cm off the ground.

Sump 6cm off the ground :(

lol would hate to be driving that around my area that front bar wouldn't last a day at that height.

make sure you post some pics when it's finished man i LOVE the look of it.

primordial? have i posted pics before in here? lol oops soooo many pages i forgot if i did, sorry haha...

hehe nah no spammer :-)

ben...

Hehe nah.. i was just having a dig :rofl:

Awesome looking car btw. A lot of work has gone into it obviously!

  • 2 weeks later...
Here is mine.

She's a 95 R33 GTST with 72K on the clock, in excellent condition, has a few minor stonechips ect, and a scratch on the scirt, but no big deal there, basically as good as new.

It's a type-M with sunroof, and a few other options from nissan.

So far i have fitted a Walbro GSS342 pump, boost controller, boost guage, HKS bellmouth intake and pod, 3" dump pipe with highflow catco cat and 3" exhaust, adjustable FPR, SAFC II, an allarm and intercooler still to go.

I ordered my wheels yesturday, Speedy Spyder Gold, and after that, it's time for a tune and chase down 200rwKw.

What you think?

edit: forgot, also has RAZO peddals, Gear Knob (not in picture) RAZO turbo timmer and RAZO fuel cut deffender.

FORGOT to mention, i've only had the car two weeks

I was gonna buy this car 15500 .....

from joel at aussiecarcompliance.coma.au

best guys to deal top quality cars!

Some of the 33's in here makes me want to :(

Infact, " some " would be an understatement, more like 75%.. Shocking wheels, ugly front bars :):no: Gives the other " decent " looking 33's a bad image. :)

I was checkin' out images from page 13 onwards, Mr GTR V-spec's sky is a stunner.. I will post images of my custom red sky next week!

    • Dang. I love the little 'oil used' bingo card on the side.   🤣  Well, now they can use a box and an oil-filled goon.
    • Many many moons ago, I was chatting with Andy Wyatt, about his auto ignition tuning. One of the HUGE things he said to me, when tuning for power, right where you hit peak ignition timing for your max torque, dramatically increases NOx emissions. He was finding in testing, particularly on engines you could advance timing beyond peak torque, that backing the ignition timing off a couple of degrees only made for a small drop in torque (compared to if you keep backing it off further the same amount of degrees) but dramatically reduced NOx emissions. I'd say targetting for 14.7, and he's even mentioned in some scenarios going slightly leaner, and pulling a few degrees of IGN timing will help pass for emissions quite a lot. However, who tunes an RB for emissions
    • The main stuff from.Vibrant I see is more their intercooler piping, and everyone raving about their clamps, but when I looked it was about $150 per clamp... I was a bit   I also thought the public price SP had up was high. As Mark said, a normal exhaust shop can fab them. It was many years ago that I had a full exhaust built, but for a full turbo back exhaust, and 2 custom built mufflers, plus a high flow cat, was about $1,100, and that was fully installed, drive in, drive out. I believe SP was about $900 for 2 mufflers, just supplied   These days, I just buy the material and built it myself, because I need to stretch my $$$
    • I'm pretty sure if it's considered a gasoline powered vehicle you have to do certification against a fixed, very expensive certification fuel.  If you add two precats and then replace the main cat with two cats back to back you can get an RB26 to do 0.24 g/mi HC, 1.6 g/mi CO, and 0.3 g/mi NOx on the FTP-75 drive cycle. Found this out courtesy of California's laws at great expense. Divide by 1.61 to get g/km. So even with extra cats + precats you're blowing past the NOx limit by probably 2.3x. Probably the only way to get an RB25 or RB26 to meet euro 4 purely from an emissions per km standpoint and not durability/OBD2 requirements is retrofit at least intake side VVT, clearance the pistons to allow the full 50 degrees of advance so part throttle EGR can be maximized, and change the wastegate control from conventional 7 psi spring for example to one that is always fully open if the wastegate line is at 1 atm or higher and only close it in response to vacuum. See BMW's N54 engine as a reference for how this works. You would need to find space for a vacuum tank to function as an accumulator in this system. That way you can avoid any heat loss to the turbine as much as possible during cold start to heat the catalyst faster. Then find some way to eliminate as much as possible cold start enrichment to light off the catalyst rapidly. Maybe secondary air injection if there's no way to avoid cold start enrichment. Close coupled catalysts in the downpipe are probably necessary. I would also probably swap to EV14s, pick something with the correct spray targeting + dual cone pattern for the intake manifold you're using. EV1 style injectors to pass anything resembling modern emissions requires a very annoying air assisted injector system to break up the droplets at part throttle/idle which still doesn't work that great compared to just having smaller droplets from the injector to begin with. Realistically, you're probably going to be financially ahead if you just pay the fines instead. Or don't drive it into the city center. There's a reason why Nissan never bothered to even attempt certifying an RB for CA/US emissions. The VG30 needed external EGR on top of NVCS to pass in the 90s. Doing all of this work is also distinctly expensive and you're going to struggle to find anyone who is remotely interested in helping.
