Hi all,

Ok, so heres the gitty. Im an enthusiast of nissan skylines and currently am i proud owner of an r33 gts-t 97 model m spec manual. The car itself is pretty bog-stock atm but i have many plans to do do various things to it. Any suggestion will be much appreciated as i dont know much about nissan skylines. Also, does anyone know about any cruizes happening in melbourne? I've never been on one and would like to go one time.

Welcome mate.

I think there was a big cruise tonight up in to the hills .But just keep a eye out in the Events section and you will be able to keep up with whats going on.

So you went a R33 ..Would like to see a pic or 2

I dont know what you want to do with your Skyline but the list is endless. Most common would be a exhaust first up

And then you will be able to go from there..

Cheers :P

I would also agree with this..

welcome jim but first and foremost your car is called a TYPE M not M SPEC because M SPEC is a whole different car.. i know we type m owners would love to have a m spec but unfortunatly our pockets dont allow us..

good luck with your liner and see you on a cruise

    • Hi All, I'm based in Sydney and want to get hold of 4 stock R34 GTT wheel caps as pictured. Cheers
    • Haha im flattered! Although my poor boat is collecting dust in the garage, as it hasn’t been driven in like 6 months. I forgot the to put the trickle charger on too, so the battery is likely toast now.. I have the frenchys kit. It is fantastic. My only gripe was that the hard lines from the firewall needed some tweaking, however, this was mainly due to my specific turbo and dump combo. The weight and size packaging is much nicer too. I think I have some pics on my build thread somewhere.. my justification for the kit was more “why not” I had gone to the trouble to modernise just about every other part of the car..
    • Actually, ethanol has probably never been cheaper, on a tax free basis, than petrol. With fuel excise being what it is, and only being levied on the hydocarbon component, not the ethanol component, and ethanol for non-drinking purposes not being subject to liquor excise - E85 was cheaper, but not because the combustible liquid itself was particularly cheaper.
    • Maybe? If changing the cat to a higher flowing cat, caused the turbo to spool more quickly, and those areas of the map had not been tuned for the boost level it is now seeing, then yes you would need a re-tune. How dangerous it is running without the updated tune would depend on how far out the tune is with the now higher boost levels, how the engine protection has been setup, is the ECU compensating with a wideband sensor, is the boost control closed loop blah blah million other things... But yeah having said that, I wouldn't be surprised if changing out the cat for a high flow, in say a full 3" exhaust, made no noticeable difference at all.
