R33 Gtr. Picking It Up Tomorrow:)

Recommended Posts

Well after approx 5 months of trading my R32 Veilside Widebody GTR, I have sold my WRX and bought a R33 GTR. Its a 1996 Midnight Purple series 2 with a few mods. It has just come from japan, so I will be the first owner in OZ. The car has an immaculate interior and drives beautifully. Gearbox is smooth and quite and handles like all great GTRs should. I have owned 3 R32 GTRs over the years and this will be my first R33 GTR. The WRX was a nice car, but I have a massive soft spot for GTRs and cant wait to get back into the feeling of an RB26:)

The car has-

3inch Kakimoto Catback Exhaust.

18inch gold BBS rims with Brand New Pirelli P6000s.

320kmh Nismo white dash and centre gauges.

Carbon Fibre bonnet.

400R carbon fibre front bar.

Boost Controller.

Aftermarket radiator.

Blitz Intercooler.

Tein Coilovers.

Looking forward to showing you guys pics and getting back to being a member of the GTRs brigade!!

Hmmm, i thought you need to get an engineers approval for the bonnet or they are illegal.

Picked the car up last night and it drives like a dream!! It has full japanese log books and even has logged when Nismo 320kmh dash was put in. Looks like a great example of a well looked after GTR.

When the weather improves, I will upload pics for everyone ;)

    • Hi everyone, I bought the Redline diff oil and the seller has sent me Redline 75W90NS even though that’s not what’s pictured.  I’ve already booked a hoist to go and change my diff tomorrow but I’m not sure if the NS is ok for the rear diff in a R34 GTT I think the NS does not have any slip modifiers so would that be an issue?    thanks in advance 
    • Not easy to find pics from 15 years ago, but here is a partial one. Keep in mind that it curved immediately from the airbox, then kept a straight line for the MAF to read correctly, followed by a 45 degree bend straight down to the turbo. This connection was the most difficult as it had to twist as well as bend to meet the almost vertical straight section of the intake.
    • Yes, well, wrt a wheel alignment, there are two types. Either: You have very little added adjustables, in which case the alignment can be done by anyone in any tyre shop or equivalent, and will only take 30 minutes, and so there is no reason to even consider leaving the car there. OR: The alignment is a major exercise because you have adjustables everywhere and so you will need to be taking it to a shop that is skilled and experienced at setting up race cars and the like, and you won't need to worry about leaving the car there.
    • does anyone know the specs of the R35 master cylinder, rear ratio and knee point? the BM57 is a 0.4 rear ratio with a 435psi knee. I'm looking for someone with a much lower knee pressure. the piston area of the R35 brakes isnt that big so might not work for me but this is interesting.. the other option for me is a GU patrol master cylinder and booster and do the prop valve externally.
    • It sounds like by avoiding maintenance you may be doing more damage than a hypothetical guy in a workshop taking it for a spin. Not sure if you are just being paranoid or things are actually that bad in the US. Find a reputable shop not run by dickheads. Look for people that take pride in their work. Stick around for the day if you have to
