I was pricing-up a nice r33 GTST '94 today but it looked slitly different.It had a nismo front,nice white flat-spoke rims,GTR wing,Recaros,big writing on the steering wheel and the sides of the car"Taka Kaira" .The dealer is telling me that the car is a limited edition one and all the bits are fitted at the factory.Has anyone ever heard of "Taka Kaira" R33 or otherwise limited edition R33?

There was a Nissan 40th Anniversary GTS-t. With a better body kit and I think it was only released in midnight purple.

But then again, anyone could buy 25 GTS-t's and badge them in there business's name as a limited edition.

Might go again tomorrow to investigate further.On the outside the car looks shmick.However, the drivers recaro has a hole from a fag butt and the paint has come off the dash in some spots.Looks a bit grubby,however admiddedly the car is not ready for sale yet.I want to see it when they finish with it.

When I bought my car there was an NA Auto with a TommyKaira kit from the factory, with custom 19" gold wheels, rigid as heel suspension, hell it sounds pretty much identical, cept it was black, auto, and NA.

Same year '94, with silver badging on the side skirts with Tommy Kaira written on them.

Had it of driven better than a tractor, and gone faster than an excel I would have bought it. The thing was thrashed beyond belief, and the interior was about as good.

Good collectors car if you are planning on restoring it and using it from time to time, but if you want to drive it daily, make sure its worth it

yeah but the 40th anniversay one comes in a few different colours (purple, black, white) and is only series II 98 models.

my friend owns a genuine 40th anniversary R33, in Midnight Purple... most immaculate Skyline ive ever seen in my life. he paid high 30's for it about 6 months ago. only had 9000kms on it, with the log books in Japanese. :eek:

someone told me its got an R34 drivetrain underneath it... anyone got any further info about them that i can pass on to him?

I have seen a few lines with the Tomma kaira kits..you can get the copy kits easy enough. Generally all white?

If it indeed is a genuine.. and midnite purple is a nice colour!

I'd snap it up even if it has some problems - they can be fixed..

Ummm a few thing might need clearing up here..

I thought all 40th Ed. GTS-t's where midnight purple ? and where series 1's ?

If it did have a R34 Drivetrain...whats the difference ? I doubt very much.

I looked at the car again today.The colour is actually dark blue.Under the bonnet the colour is matt black-coud indicate that front end was at panel beaters at some stage.No extra hardware under the bonnet as far as I could tell.But it does have an authentic looking Tommi Kaira badge on the boot.Interior looks rather unimpressive and well used, 66,000 on the odo notwithstanding.I will probably look somewhere else for my Skyline.

    • Hello First, I apologize if this is not the correct forum. Let me know and I will move it to the correct one. I'm having a problem with the tachometer on my Skyline R33 with an RB25DET Neo engine. I'll tell you from the beginning. I'll tell you from the beginning. I have the RB25DET Neo engine installed in a Nissan Patrol GU, with a Link G4X control unit specifically for that engine,  and I have fitted a Skyline R33 tachograph to the original GU dashboard, but it doesn't work properly. I have the tachometer connected to the positive and negative terminals of the GU panel's wiring, and the signal cable is connected directly to the ECU output pin, but the rpm fluctuates widely. Can anyone tell me if the output signal from an R33 ECU is the same as the output signal from an R34 ECU, or if the voltage and signal type are different? Regards and thanks.  
    • I guess it was the thought about "Oh if I were to drive this everyday". Then no, SL500 I wouldn't really consider lmao. 
    • Yeah actually really fair point. Idk what I was thinking when looking at the SL500. Now that I think about it, I feel like I would have more enjoyment out of a shitbox that I would need to repair than some fancy merc. Although I must admit the SL500 does look quite nice. My bad hahaha.
    • 100% Also "Not wanting to spend money" is THE WORST IDEA IMAGINABLE when coming to a project car of any kind. They EXIST to BURN MONEY. Sure, gas money is a thing. A stock car with the worst fuel economy ever sold would probably be cheaper than modifying a car with FREE petrol for the life of your ownership of it, lol.
    • Amount of time you're being observed by law enforcement is so minute, that you could be a dumb shit 90% of your driving time, and never lose a demerit. You could also be the best driver ever and still get hit with a fine.   When you realise how quickly everything turns from "Wee, we're having fun!" To "oh f**k oh f**k oh f**k", you start to realise the only way to be a good driver, is to not be doing anything dumb or unexpected by normies on the road. You want to go fast, go to the track. Someone there in a 1990s slow POS will also show you how bad of a driver you are as they lap 10 seconds per lap quicker than you can in a car that should be considerably faster.
