Can't say it is to my tastes... for the money that the QLD mob charged for the drive in, drive out conversion - I'd rather a nice R33 GTR! (I'll have to look at the article again to see what the $$$ was, but I know it was pretty hefty!)

Yeah, that looks like the one Skyline Imports were offering. According to an article in HPI the demonstrator model (like the one pictured) was $62,000, or $30,000 to have it done to a car you supply. $10,000 worth of rolling stock and 200+ hours labour. It looks incredible, but i find it hard to justify the asking price.

Met and had a lil chat with GZ R33 at the servo last night on the way home from trivia, nice to meet you, and the car looks hot, but whered your mirror go?

Cheers mate, good to meet you, the car looks good.

The mirror got wiped out by a delivery truck who decided to drive off without shutting the side door. Could have been alot worse, I don't know how it missed the whole side of the car. :)

Spotted GZ R33 this morning on the barton. Was riding shotgun in an excel so I didnt wave.

Quote: also saw exiting the tuggerz area when i was being brought home by andrew at around 5pm the maroon R33 with nice lookin rims and has Auto Salon Competitor on the back

Thats ash, top bloke. Rebuilt 25T with some healthy mods. Hasnt been entered in Autosalon since 03 but i'd still wear the sticker 2!!! lol.

    • So.... when I'm finally getting around to having my power steering leak sorted, now it looks like I've got the same issue most A/T Skylines are having. My A/T light will randomly come on and I'm stuck in 3rd gear until I turn the car off and on again. Only 3 weeks ago I did a complete transmission service: Oil flush + new gasket + new filter. This came out of nowhere!! It wasn't like the car was driven hard. I drove about 3 mins down the road to get fuel and boom!!!  Anyway, I have a few questions and hope you fine people can help me out here. All questions are in red. 1. The solenoids: I was looking at the parts catalogue in Amayama and I could only find the Solenoids as an assembly. https://www.amayama.com/en/part/nissan/319404ax05 I read in another thread that Solenoid A = 31940-4AX02 & Solenoid B = 31940-4AX05 but the Amayama product has only the code of B. Is this the right part? Can anyone who has done the Solenoid changes or seen them confirm if this is the complete set of A & B?   2. Gasket and Filter: I'm not going to try change the solenoids myself because it seems difficult to do in a home garage with just 2 jack stands. I plan to take it to a shop and get it changed. I was also going to buy the transmission sump gasket at the same time so I don't reuse the same gasket. Should I just use the existing gasket as it has only been on the car since OCT 19th? (~3 weeks) Should I be buying a brand-new gasket and a filter? Does this job involve taking the filter out?   Thanks in advance to everyone. It's hard to find a video of someone doing a solenoid change on a R34 so any help you can give answering my remaining questions would make me less stressed.
    • Yea - From what I have seen from the video, the car idles like any R34 lol 50PSI of fuel pressure is hardly super abnormal, the regulator is working because the pressure remains static when the throttle gets revved, i.e pressure remains the same when manifold vaccuum changes. Bigger pumps on stock rails always bumped the pressure in the rail without using an aftermarket regulator to change that. Do you know what your IAC is actually doing? Has there been any data showing the stepper motor % etc? There's no way your idle is actually moving around the way the cluster(s) are indicating. You would hear the difference with the engine RPM flying to 3k and 1k in mere seconds. I'd be checking the wiring to the tacho. What the tacho is telling you and what the engine/ecu is telling you are different things. I assume your ECU doesn't display the spike. So whatever is telling the tacho to be at X rpm is doing something weird. When the going gets insane, you're on the wrong path. You've ruled out plenty of things that are working correctly/aren't the issue. Your idle isn't doing what the tacho is indicating. You have two seperate issues, I don't think they are linked, and the idle seems reasonably okay unless it's stalling which.. well, it hasn't. Troubleshoot the stall if it occurs by figuring out what your IAC is doing vs what it is being told to do.
    • So awesome! I love the RB with the exhaust on display.
    • NO HITS PRICE DROP   ENGINE - $8.5k ONO TRANSMISSION - $1.8k ONO  
    • If it has had a code in the recent past, the code should still be there waiting to be read.
