Ok guys,

I've overlooked this for quite a while now... but it just bothers me a bit. Really, if we're Skyline enthusiasts, we should be using the right nomenclature. Now, I know your Aussies:D... hence the nick names, and "slightly ascew" info at times but....

Here goes:

IT'S HCR32 NISSAN SKYLINE GTS-T TYPE-M!!!!

Get it right!

IT'S ECR33 NISSAN SKYLINE GTS25t TYPE-M!!!!

For the love of god, it's NOT "M-Spec"!!!!

Thaaaaaaaaank Yoooooooooou!:D:D:D

You use words like "Nomenclature" but can't use "You're" correctly?

English teacher?

I'm sure as sh!t not an ace super-typer secretary either...

...it was a slip of the keys!!:D

for years this was the only way many of us read jap websites... then we got jap speaking gf's :D

You'll find a lot of M-Spec, 5 Speed Missons (5 Speed Manual) etc etc. You should look up the number of people that don't know the difference between a GTS4 and 4 Door GTSt. Hence I wanna do this guide thing.

Sounds good man. I'll be in it...

...before any of you R31 boys remind me, yes, the R31 documentation is coming along... kinda.

    • There are several aftermarket options available, from not-too-painful moneyhttps://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35 and  https://justjap.com/products/crank-motorsport-billet-rear-axles-fits-nissan-skyline-r33-gts-t-r34-gt-t?srsltid=AfmBOorQk4xkGUa98kO7v2ePLUiNt-HRrM2AwWNw9mbSIVE1ujBVwY__, all the way up to The Driveshaft Shop https://driveshaftshop.com/skyline-cv-axles/
    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
    • Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
    • Yeeeppp, been following a lot of the testing on the latest Xona stuff and there are some mental results.  He also went over 1000hp @ 4 hubs on his Mainline with a XRE6364S (63mm) which was also well into the 20psi range before 4000rpm on a 2.5. Crazy stuff. Fwiw the XRE5964S is basically the modern equivalent of their old HTA3582 - would drive nicely enough on an RB25 or 26, but proven capable of a huge amount of power if you want to spicy with rpm tho even at sane boost levels will make stout numbers 
    • The axels in my R33 seem tired, and have a bit of play in them. I cannot find any new of course, not interested in buying used, but I am looking to see if anyone can identify some cross compatible axles. In the states I have seen suggested for S chassis the J30 axles, however for the skyline (as best I can tell) the lengths are about an inch off (2.5cm) on both sides. R33 my measure L 22" R 24.5" GPT L 22.5" 24.25" J30 L 23.5" 25.5"  so shaft length is probably an inch wider. Not sure if someone has another still remanufactured option besides the J30. I figured worst case I can buy a pair tear them down and swap the center shaft. My other option was reaching out to GSP to see if they cannot piece together a set, since the axle stubs are still manufactured, I wouldn't think it be that hard to find a shaft or make a shaft work.
