Hi all,

I finally managed to get my dream.

Bought it off the first owner in Oz, he had it for 2 years. It has 101,000 KM's on it, has had its 100,000km service, timing belt done etc.

Unmodified except pod's and turbo timer.

Wheels are next on the agenda!! After the bank account recovers though. LOL

Took these pic's with my mobile, will take some better ones with a camera and post them.

Congratulations Eric, as it looks in great nick.

Slept in it yet? :) More foot room in the rear than the other GT-Rs!

God_speed has one with about the same no. of Kms > about to sell his soon > 100kKm service done too.

Thanks Terry, good to see a fellow Foz owner too! :rofl2:

No, haven't slept in it yet but was pretty close to on the night I got it. Hahaha!!

Looks good mate enjoy your ride! I've loved mine ever since I've owned it. take it on some nice twisty roads you'll appreciate it even more. Cheers.

Thanks Nathan.

Yeah, I have only had it for a couple of days and love it already. Already took it on a decent run, feels very different through the corners, smooth. My Foz isn't too bad at cornering either! :)

congrats on the purchase man, very nice and very clean looking r33. Imo, go the TE's in bronze :D . Btw, you might wanna fix your profile coz you wrote R34 GT-R in the cars owned section after (dream). Unless you mean you now own a R33 as well as a R34 which in that case just makes me incredibly jealous lol

Maybe it's better to pay more and get TE37 !! :(

someone posting pictures they know nothing about.

If you saw what the EVO did in the before that - you'd hardly be surprised the rim ended out like that.

Several users here have run them FINE on the circuit for quite some time now without any issue at all.

Thanks all.

Really love this car now....I'm hooked! Hahaha.

motor is making a slight tapping noise, but from what I read on these forums the RB26DETT has a slight tapping noise. Freaked me out at first, then read the info on here and it calmed me down.

    • I know it's an entirely different engine, but I noticed practically 0 difference removing or adding 2x 3in (5inch body) 400cell cats (one in each bank) with regards to sound. So changing the cat to change drone I suspect will have very very, very, very, very, very very minimal impact.
    • 200 cell cat will probably help. Do you have room to tee off a Helmholtz resonator anywhere along the exhaust? These can do wonders for drones, with a little experimentation with regards to length.
    • The car revs up through the gears much better/faster now, and fuel consumption doesn't really seem to have be affected either on a Hwy cruise, which wasn't expected  The FAB9 intake manifold has been problematic sourcing though, I've contacted Plasmaman to ask about their intake, which you can get different runner lengths spec'd, and, their different options for throttle bodies  The only real physical drawback with the Plasmaman intake is how to connect it to my current OEM style airbox, as FAB9 make a OEM style back half of the airbox to suit the larger diameter throttle body, and all that is required is a 30°bend silicone pipe to mate the throttle body to the airbox Car also goes in for some exhaust work in a week or so to fit the biggest resonator they can fit clearance wise in the front pipe to help remove some of the drone, there isn't alot of realestate under there, a rough guesstimation is it will only be about 3-400mm long and maybe 90-100mm diameter, and with a 60mm exhaust that doesn't leave alot of space for the internal volume of the resonator to do its thing I'm thinking I may need to bin the "high flow" 100 cell cat for something a bit more substantial, yeah, and restrictive, like a 200-400 cell, to help, but, I have ample room for a really large bodied cat to replace the current one which has around a 4" diameter body I may look around in the recycling bins and see if I can find a massive newish cat that was "replaced" with some new full exhaust system that the local exhaust shop in Western Sydney is doing
    • Hahah look at that smile 😂 Just like those ones on IG where they compare the husband in family photos vs husband going fishing lol. I don't think I'll participate this time, clutch isn't in and also the last time I went there were too many numpties on the cruise sessions. Nearly caused a few accidents holding up people and a few guys initiating massive kerb to kerb drifts with heaps of cars right behind them. Not to mention, there were guys on the track session using it as a power cruise session.
