The orange 4 door I owned 6 years ago, the 2 door is my current restoration. Same motor in the 2 door as was in the 4 door. L28 bored to 3.0L. N42 head and block, some japanese inlet manifold match ported to triple 45 webers

These have a nice dash layout too

I think this the model where Nissan started to put a rear windscreen wiper on the coupe

I would have preferred that they kept the circular rear lights on this model like the C110/240K

Cheers

Yea I agree about the lights and I've actually changed mine to the cooktop type as you can see if you look closely at my main page pics. Ricky

nice cars,had a few of the 4 doors sedans a few years back and went and handled much better than newer cars ive had, hang on to them,becoming rarer to buy them these days or seeing them on the road ,$$$$ the dashes are much more informative than some late 80 -90 model cars (oil pressure,volts,rpm) chuck some power windows off the 81 model skylines and electric fuel pump,disc rears (all the conections are there)if i could get a good one id be one happy person.

Yea I have to agree Alanwd.My 4 door was a wicked toy on the road. I've put electric pump in as I've got a 280z motor and triple 45 webwers on my coupe.The condition is average to good, but at some point I'll spend money on the body.For now I just want to go racing so a quick coat of paint is all that's instore at the mo.

    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
