Hi All!

I just joined the fourms today, and am hoping you guys will be a lot of help over the years :P

I've currently got an Integra 05 Type S, which I'm looking to sell and purchase an R33 very shortly :(

So I've done a lot of research already into the GTS-T and I'm hoping to score a mint condition M-Spec for good price.

Anyways, that's all for now, will be in touch once I have my R33! :(

P.S.

Link to photo of my Type S for anyone that's interested.

Welcome! Though, i have to ask; why are you planning to swap to the skyline? I ask because i had an 03 Type R, and am currently driving an R33 GTS-T. Granted, it may be taking me a little while to get used to a RWD turbo 6, which is without a doubt a quicker car, but it seems to me that the integra was a more enjoyable drive.

The handling was awsome, and i could depend on it absolutely in the wet. In the skyline, i have to drive like a granny when it rains unless i'm going all tokyo drift style in central bankstown... a sure way to get someones attention :P

Don't get me wrong, i love my skyline, but I can't keep from regretting selling the type r.

True, I love my Type S, but have since got a urge to experience turbo. I've never had a turbo! :P Vtec is fun... But whilst young (just turned 25 in June) I want to enjoy a fast car.

Reason for selling #2 Financial wise... I'm going overseas mid next year, and can sell my car for a very good price due to the condition of it.... After I sell my car, I'm looking to buy a Skyline for about 10-13grand and keep the rest of the money for my holiday o/s next year.

So if I can find a Skyline (R33) with basic mods for that price I'm happy since I won't be modifying it for another year+

Ah, financial reasons... that's why I ended up selling the teg :) If you keep looking around, you should find a decent example of a skyline. I was looking for a few months, including soarers, until i found a skyline in really good condition with low k's.

Most of the skylines around were in pretty bad condition. Either the engine had been thrashed and not maintained, or the interior was filthy, or the car had body damage :)

I ended up paying a couple of grand extra for a practically stock model in perfect condition, glad i did, except now with some mods thrown in, the car will end up costing me more than a skyline should... but hey, that's how it goes... :thumbsup:

    • Hey lads, reviving an old thread.  As an update, since the last time replied to this thread, ive done mostly suspension. Havent touched the motor except for maintenance. Though upon changing spark plugs, found out i had splitfires pre-installed! Updates: - Got me some stock airbox top cover and snorkel to fit onto the original intake. Should be free of defects - Bought a set of R34 GT-T brakes (not installed yet, going to rebuild + respray in champion blue + white 'Nissan' text) - Bought the last set of bilsteins from @Sydneykid and had them installed. Has been making some sounds on the rear but hopefully should be sorted out after this New Year break. - Regreased front caster rod bushings (poly bushes..) - Rear upper camber arms - Whiteline sway bars (BNF27Z 22mm + BNR11XXZ 24mm).  The rear sway bars are a bit short (ive read 50mm else where) but was still able to get them in.  Anyhows, I reckon suspension is sorted now. Maybe replace bushes (do have a set of front upper control arms from SK not installed yet) but should be okay for now. From now, I'm wanting to start working on the motor, drivetrain etc etc. Still debating on the order to go on and what to buy etc but: - ECU ( Haltech or Link ( Link states that it dont support A/T or AWD functions... Can anyone attest to this? ) - Highflow turbo ( ATR43ss2 ) - Intercooler ( Not decided yet, but cant find many good afoordable ones. Toshi says to opt for crossflow Japanese. Bit difficult this one, unless I get a returnflow Blitz from JJ? ) - Injectors ( Any recommendations ? I do have a nismo FPR ( Thanks SK ) ) - Seats - Tune by either Toshi or DVS To be fair, I did consider just keeping the stock turbo and nistuning it. Sat in a mates stock N, that had something like 200kw, and I reckon that felt more than enough. Maybe I should just go this route ahhaha. Too many choices.... Planning a trip down south, so wanting to just clean things up and make sure it gets to and from in one piece. Anything else specifically I should do before ? Cheers lads  
    • Must be for the car’s lucky charm 🤷🏽‍♂️ She runs fine, but it just seems to take about 1L less. Maybe I’ll have the oil sump dropped at some point to check if there is anything 
    • Hmmm interesting. Mine is the exact same and clearly the right one.  The mystery of the engine oil being full after 3.5-4L continues 
    • Yes I as well would like to find out where I could get some of the seat material with the red or blue small squares in it
