I wanna buy a gtr r33... help


Recommended Posts

Seriously, tune the car around an inlet restriction to give you about 130-150kws. Thats a drop of about 60-80 kws.

In a GTR that power, weight, suspension, and brakes combination, would be a safe car, but like any car would still need to be driven with a level head.

Cars like Corvettes etc, that have Valet switches that drop hp, simply use a variable restriction in the inlet.

This is done using an additional butterfly valve (throttle body) and a secondary computer map to run the car in this altered guise.

Theres your solution and should only add an additional $2000 to the pruchase price of the car.

I am serious, this is not shoddy/dodgy, major car manufacturers do this, so you see, there is no reason you cant own your dream GTR.

I have an answer for insurance too.

At that sort of $$$, you will be able to go close to being able to repair it in the event you have a small ding, or if its a larger accident, then sell off the parts, (hey the engines go for +$5k, interiors $1k, wheels $2.5k, brakes$1.5k etc, etc)...

...and buy another R33

Still get third party insurance, and a good alarm & tracking system in case of theft.

So with third party you are still gaining a no claim bonus, and if you have an accident with a gutter/tree, something other then another car, then by repairing/selling you will not be affecting your no claim bonus.

After reading what ive typed, i have to ask how badly do you want a GTR?

Take the money and blow it OS on a great holiday, when/if you come home save and get a GTR then.

Hey if your parents are willing, see if they will go for the 21st b'day present thing, R34s may even fit the price bracket!

not being mean but its very hard to get a salesperson to realise you are genuine when soo young looking at a gtr..... speaking from experience, also i would doubt any private sellers would comfortable letting a 16-17yr old (male or female) drive their gtr.

have you driven a gtr before ??

For anyone stupid enough to take my above post serious, I was being sarcastic and the car is not for sale!!

I really thought it would have been obvious as how could a car with this much power be a nice first car!!

    • What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.
    • I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.      
    • So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about
    • This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but.. 
    • Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
