As I cant seem to be able to sell my GTR wheels,

and I will eventually be buying another car.

Im looking into getting a atmo R33 Series 2..... But for some STUPID reason, Nissan decided to make the non-turbo R33's 4 stud???????? WHY!

So the questions are -

Will R33 GTR rims fit a R33 GTS?

Do the guards need to be rolled?

Do spacers need to be fitted? (my previous S14a they just touched the front strut)

What parts are needed to make it 5 stud?

Do I need to upgrade the brakes? (can get cheap discs but what about calipers?)

What is the average cost of converting to 5 stud?

Who on here has done the conversion? and do you have any photos?

And lastly if anyone is interested please send me a PM about buying my R33 GTR wheels.

Adrian

i dont think you read it properly

my PREVIOUS s14a.

i had them on that car... they looked awesome and handled great, but would have preferred a +25 offset for that car.

but now i dont have a car.

need to know what has to be done though before i buy a skyline non turbo

  • 2 months later...

i belive if you buy from wreckers you will pay upto and possibly little more than $1000

in saying that i saw a 5stud conversion on here for a GTS4 for $1000 dollars also but that had R34 front rotors and calipers

what you need to do is look for a crashed R33 and buy the parts off him on the cheap

front rotors calipers and hubs

rear rotors calipers and hubs

all parts just bolt up

    • Well, back in the day..... "race" fluids, which were essentially only really "high temp" fluids, used to absorb water more readily. So they really needed to be changed more often anyway. The coincidence of that being directly necessary along with it being what racers would do as a matter of course was just fine.
    • Does the high temp fluid degrade any different over time compared to normal one? That's one thing I've always been wondering. Because a track car is going to get the fluid flushed probably way more often than every two years and will see less kilometers driven. I would think the requirements are different. I'm running Motul RBF 600 in mine. Was recommended by my mechanic before a trackday and I've stuck with it since. Hasn't seen the track since but I've kept buying and using it for servicing anyway.
    • The brakes are all stock bar some DBA slotted discs and the EBC pads and braided lines. The car has brake ducts as standard but they're kinda pointed in the general direction of the brakes rather than really getting at the heat source. I guess I should hit it with an infra red thermometer after a session and see what they're at.  100%! Its just a curiosity more than anything. As I said, high temp brake fluid was such a track day rage back in the day. From people I speak to at the track and threads on here everybody has their own take on it but I'm not gonna scoff at spending a few more bucks.    OH, a quick side question - would you use brake fluid from an opened container even if the lid has been on? Eg, if you have a bottle that you opened last time you flushed, it's been tightly closed, is it still good? 
    • Nice, is there a post with the new 4" dyno curve?
