I will admit i have never been a great skyline fan as i used to comment at one stage skylines are like taxis every man and his dog had one at the time,And as you can guess at the time i had a rather punchy well modified Nissan GTI-R that was almost unbeatable on the street over short distances claiming many scalps in the process.

With the price of second hand jap import cars taking a massive nose dive over the last few years i sold my pride and joys and accumilated a very healthy bank account.

But after being ridiculed by my fellow jap import drivers it took a massive month befor i got my self back into a new ride.

Personaly a 33 GTR would have been the last GTR i would have ever bought i love 34s for the pure agressive look they put out from factory but the price tag was out of my budget, I love a clean 32 GTR as they are very gritty looking and tuff,I went to look at a 32 GTR on the day and spent about 30 seconds looking at it when i spotted the 33 GTR out the corner of my eye and that was all she wrote i just had to have it.

I have been told this car is not common and in some cases does not even exsist but well i have one.

Normaly you see Bee R converted 32 GTRs out of japan with 34 front ends on,Well i have a 33 GTR that has a genuine Bee R widebody 34 GTR kit on it.

I have emailed Bee R in japan trying to find out some infomation on this car and how it came about because to be honest i am intrested to know how it came about.

I have tried to get in contact with Hosaka Tunning Factory as they built the motor that was in the car when it entered the country but no luck as they did not list a email on there website,The motor that was in this car was a 2.8 hks stroker V-cam rb26 motor t51r spl 6 speed sq gearbox,The motor box titanium exaust alcon brake system was removed from the car to be used on a 32 GTR race car and put back in its place was a 33 GTR stock motor 5 speed GTR box and brembro brake system.

Well here it is.

I have proberly forgot a few things as just about every thing on this car has been uprated,Some one in japan loved this car it was purchased as a HKS customers car direct from japan and i am the first owner in australia.

I have no idea how much this car is worth but at a tally the replacement of this car runs between 50 plus grand and some of this stuff you just can not get any more.

Things i am in the process of doing are alot of painting of parts in the engine bay/ brakes all in 2 pac as i own a spray booth that is currently not errected.

The car needs to be retuned with the mods that are going onto it but est power was between 350-400 hp atw but im going to be hunting for around 450hp daily atw.

I also pulled out a array of guages from the car a box full of apexi greddy stuff as im not a big fan of crap all over my dash,Also pulled out a Carmate sc5000 security system with remote start and so on.

Here are a few camra phone pictures i hope you enjoy the look of the car as much as i do,May not be every bodys cup of tea but i just love it and its a neck snapper for sure and im pretty sure its the only one of its type in the country.

Dash its now minus all the guages but boost that has been relocated

just started pulling down the brakes for the dba rota upgrade to find that the wheels are 19x10.5 wide and the brakes look to have green stuff pads all round in good condition.Pity i can t use them with the new rotas.

The coil overs are hks hyper-max performers :rofl: and rose joint adjusted front camber arms.

Pictures to come

Edited by Gtir-keiron

brakes are off and ill fast forward past the ugly buts.

Took me about 5 hours to rub them down correctly to get them ready for painting.

it was 17 degrees in the shed so we busted out the hairdryer to keep the heat on the pain while we sprayed,Worked a treat i personaly would only do this for little things guys,Only reason we did this is because we ran out of sunlight but they are base coated now and im awaying new brembro stickers so i can put them on and clear coat the brakes.

Pictures will follow once the finished product is complete.

Some pictures of the brakes unfitted.

Disc's and calipers in original form

Stickers cost me 15 bucks to have made up and easy to install just goto get them strait.

Finish product 2 pac gold and 2 pac clear,My advice with this is to put light coats on till you get a solid color you do not want to change the way the brakes might radiate/trap heat.

Ill take some pictures fitted with the new dba 4000's as soon as they are fitted.

What a mission that was but worth it in the end.

Heres the final installment of my brake upgrade with new dba4000 rotas new pads and some 2 pac paint.

Latest addition to the car

M800 motec with wideband lamba and datalogging enabled AME cdi bosch coils and sensors ,Yet to go in the car as im waiting for a mates dyno to be back up and running.

But i did do a power run at powercruise this year and the dyno was down for sure judging the other cars that went on befor and after mine.

She ran on the dyno 370hp at all 4 but we think the way the car is set up atm is more like 400 to 420hp atws.

Tossing up doing a single conversion hksto4z single turbo or sticking with the twin hks 2530s

yea i know mate.

Not worth putting in the rb25 ones any more ill wait for the motec to go in with map sensor soon as brad gets his dyno.

See you this week end ant,i dunno about you but i was ruined for 2 days after power cruise bro.

    • @soviet_merlin Thanks mate!  Nothing too major but will hold me up for a while. I've got lymphomas to get taken off the back of my neck and the middle of my spine which always conjures scary thoughts!  It sounds worse than it is. Yeah great, conjuring more rabbit hole deepening , just what I need! 🤣  
    • I'd argue the F50 kit I got is very good value. For ~2k I got the calipers (refurbed condition), adapters, pads, brake lines, rotors, and top hats. I think you'd be pretty hard to get Evo/GTR/350z brembos + the additional hardware for similar money. Used market for a pair of front calipers alone I've seen tend to run anywhere from $1500-2000 depending on condition.    That said, something like a GTR or 350z brembo is a lot easier to adapt to the Silvia. 
    • Is there a significant price difference between the Evo/gtr/350z brembos vs the F50? Looks amazing.
    • I was actually being a tightarse at the time LOL... My OCD is tickling me into running a 2nd 8AN Teflon hose all the way down and removing the 2x OEM hardlines. My other side of my brain is telling me to run 2x hardlines front to back (also acts as a fuel cooler, so win win).
    • As I mentioned in an earlier post, I had some trouble with the Silvia's brakes dragging back in 2023. I managed to sort it out then, but the same problem came back to bite me late last year. Just take a look at the picture – I had a feeling the handbrake was acting up again, and I was right. Anyway, I'd been wanting to upgrade to bigger brakes for a while. Not that the Silvia's brakes were bad, but it was more of a "want" than a "need", you know? It was funny, though – at the time, I couldn't find any Evo Brembos, 350Z Brembos, or GTR Brembos for a decent price (of course, tons of them popped up online after I already bought my kit!). I ended up going with an F50 Brembo kit, which came with adapters, brake lines, 330mm rotors, and top hats. The F50 Brembo caliper was used in a few other cars too, like the FPV. I also decided this was the perfect opportunity to ditch the Silvia's ridiculous rear brakes and that awful handbrake (some of you were definitely right about that!). I picked up some R33 calipers and all the necessary bits – rear drums, backing plates, and new hardware to refurbish the calipers. Of course, it wouldn't be a project without a few hiccups. Turns out the brake master cylinder was playing up and basically (to put it simply) keeping the brakes engaged. I had it overhauled, and after some adjustments, everything was working again. The whole process took a while, as you can imagine. To top it off, the front right wheel bearings were shot and needed replacing too. This is a rare occasion where I'm posting an update while it's all still fresh! These pictures were taken just this afternoon.
