spotted trust6 hammering it down main north rd, turned off of research rd :D about 5.30 yesterday.

WTF!? Dean there must be two of 'em!!! Mine was safely tucked away in the garage at that time, well I sure hope it was!? I didn't even get home in the Sigma till 7pm. No one else (and I mean NO ONE!) has a spare key.

Besides I wouldn't hammer it on Main North, I'm a good boy :thumbsup:

i saw a R33 gtst in melton redish with gold wheel that blew away GTR 34 and GTR 33 kleend both of them up the car looks stock as a rock sounds smooth not nosiy at all not a lump in it he poped his bonnet and it look stock as a rock then he turn around and said the hole guts of his motor was built by nismo and has about 380 rwkw at no sweet i cant belive my eyes on this car it well shock the lot of u keep an eye out for it it as interstate plates on in but it lives in the melton some where

hehe hot blonde? was prolly one of Miss*33's friends!!!

Well it definitely wasn't my car cos I wouldn't go near town on a Friday night unless I could help it. Plus my car is a Series I!

I do have a blonde friend who has a white 33 though, AVS wheels, GTR front bar - could have been her... but hers is a Series I too... :confused:

not at all, just have some trouble believing it when it looks "stock as a rock"

I would love to see it done. I do find it hard to imagine how you can get a stock looking turbo to make that sort of power - then there is the stock manifold - big restriction, stock plenum would be pretty restrictive too, not to mention the stock TB.

then there is 'sounds smooth, not noisey' well I found the nismo 3" exhaust, which wasnt that quiet at full song, became quite a restriction at anywhere above 285rwkw, so I would love to know what he is running. If I can make power with a quiet exhaust I am all for it - less attention.

I seriously would love to see this car.

the 400r is an rb26 and was supposedly 400bhp - who knows, not too many people actually own them:). Nismo do make crate engines AFAIK, but you still need all the support systems to make it work. The performance is only ever as good as the weakest link, whatever it may be.

don't think nismo's engine will be such hardcore, they are all about 'balance' but not high power.

even a 400R will find very hard to acheive 385rwkw if he don't mod it.

400R is only using nismo N1 engine with full fogre internal (piston, rod, crank shaft) and 2 x N1 turbo, which u can buy from nismo today as well, the only think special is carbon fibre drive shaft and it was totally built by nismo with limited number.

Correct me if i'm wrong but wasn't the 400R a hybrid type of motor with a 2.8ltr Mill in theory a RB28?

and the chance of someone owning a 400R here in australia would be unlikly......

It would be like the most known thing in SA/Australia/Import Community those car's r as rare as tits on a bull

something like only 100 made and i also read things like u cannot even buy a gunuine 400R

with out actually owning a car, jsut showing how serious the exclusivity of the car is and

how seriously NISMO take it.

BUT yes if is a 400R by some slim chance then show me to it wid camera in hand :)

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
