Hey People,

Im a new member to Skylines Australia. I have a R33 Gtst 1995 Black which i had a car accident in ( got paid out ).

Its been sitting in my back yard for the last year and it was quite a big hit. I went to sell it and got offered about $3000 but didnt take it as i changed my mind and thought about a rebuild?

I wanted to know if use have any tips as to what i want to do. I wanted to just buy a complete R33 but with no engine or int and just swap over as much parts as i can, And when it comes to the engine i actually was thinking if its possible to put in a RB26DET? the GTR engine in ?

All information regarding this will help me if its positive or negative.

Thanks

Well whats your budget on for the whole project?

What do you want out of it? Street car? Track day car? Drift? Drag? A mix of them all/some of them?

If you put an RB26 in, will you leave it relatively stock? Or are you planning on a big engine build as well?

If you provide us with a bit more info as to your intentions, youll get a better answer that will be able to help you out more :P

      What could be causing my clutch problem besides a bad master or slave then? Both those parts are new

      My hold point for future mods is that I want a OEM detachable hard top first, but, finding one is a pain, MX5 Mania are looking for one for me, but, as hens teeth are more common, finding one in Australia is proving problematic  I can get a OEM one from overseas, hell, you can still get new ones in 'Merica, but, shipping is a absolute killer and I cannot justify the cost, or the risk of it being damaged during transport As for the aftermarket hardtops, whilst they do the job of being a hard top, and are fine for a track car, they don't seal well (read: leak like a sieve in the rain), and you need a plastic/poly rear window, plus they are a bolt in option only and not made to be easily removed I liked how the hard top on my NB could be fitted, and removed, by myself, in less than 5 minutes I know it sounds bad, but I'm waiting for someone to write off a car with one so I can swoop in on their pain, it will go to a good home though, so my guilt of this is tempered

      No, you don't want to plug the vacuum line, as that will turn that side of the booster into an air spring and probably make it feel worse. I'm not saying that the GTR master itself doesn't need a booster. I haven't paid attention to the GTR one to know what size it is cf the non-GTR ones. But when you think about it - they have to do the same job, which is to move a little slave piston a few mm to do what it is supposed to do, and that final action is the same on all the cars. So, it is very unlikely that the GTR MC is any different than the others, because it has the same pedal stroke and the same output requirement. The booster just makes it feel easier. I'd suggest you probably have an actual hydraulic problem. It's totally common on these old shitboxes.
