Howdy. I've been reading threads related to people finding wierd things in their imports and translations of some stuff. Curiosity has gotten the better of me and I was wondering if anyone could help translate some stuff that came with my R33.

There are some stickers on the fuel filler flap.

I know that one sticker on the windscreen is rego, but what is that wiring?

The export docs. Particularly the owner name/location and the slab of text at the bottom.

And the keyring!

Any ideas appreciated.

That is an awful lot of translating you want done, I don't know about the other guys on here that do the translating but it can take an hour or so to do even one sticker for me if it has uncommon kanji (or more importantly and especially in the case of names of people/places - unusual readings of the kanji). I will give you some info now but I haven't got time to do it all right now. Sorry.

Name of owner: Nissan Prince Saitama (Need more time to research the next bit) company.

Address of owner: Saitama prefecture, Saitama city, Chuo ward, Shimochiai 4 chome (section of the ward) 24-15

ok the key ring is like this in lines

regerstration

model

says car is 14 years old

model

and then last is the name of the person who checked it in

The mileage on the inport docs are just mileage shown on previous documents, not sure where they got that info from

Pic 1 : Use Premium fuel ... and rust / water inhibitor added 11/2000

Pic 2 : looks like older style GPS antenna or phone antenna but looks more like GPS

Pic 3 : The english is there so pretty much self expanitory but Loach has the dealer and address spot on ..

The last owner/exporter was A. J. International Japan.

Mileage was just mileage that was checked on those dates

Pic 4 :What Waxracing wrote is spot on.

Dont know which pic you mean by number 2 but he already knew that its his rego (shaken) , its the antenna wiring (GPS antenna ??) on the windscreen he's asking about.

    • @soviet_merlin Thanks mate!  Nothing too major but will hold me up for a while. I've got lymphomas to get taken off the back of my neck and the middle of my spine which always conjures scary thoughts!  It sounds worse than it is. Yeah great, conjuring more rabbit hole deepening , just what I need! 🤣  
    • I'd argue the F50 kit I got is very good value. For ~2k I got the calipers (refurbed condition), adapters, pads, brake lines, rotors, and top hats. I think you'd be pretty hard to get Evo/GTR/350z brembos + the additional hardware for similar money. Used market for a pair of front calipers alone I've seen tend to run anywhere from $1500-2000 depending on condition.    That said, something like a GTR or 350z brembo is a lot easier to adapt to the Silvia. 
    • Is there a significant price difference between the Evo/gtr/350z brembos vs the F50? Looks amazing.
    • I was actually being a tightarse at the time LOL... My OCD is tickling me into running a 2nd 8AN Teflon hose all the way down and removing the 2x OEM hardlines. My other side of my brain is telling me to run 2x hardlines front to back (also acts as a fuel cooler, so win win).
    • As I mentioned in an earlier post, I had some trouble with the Silvia's brakes dragging back in 2023. I managed to sort it out then, but the same problem came back to bite me late last year. Just take a look at the picture – I had a feeling the handbrake was acting up again, and I was right. Anyway, I'd been wanting to upgrade to bigger brakes for a while. Not that the Silvia's brakes were bad, but it was more of a "want" than a "need", you know? It was funny, though – at the time, I couldn't find any Evo Brembos, 350Z Brembos, or GTR Brembos for a decent price (of course, tons of them popped up online after I already bought my kit!). I ended up going with an F50 Brembo kit, which came with adapters, brake lines, 330mm rotors, and top hats. The F50 Brembo caliper was used in a few other cars too, like the FPV. I also decided this was the perfect opportunity to ditch the Silvia's ridiculous rear brakes and that awful handbrake (some of you were definitely right about that!). I picked up some R33 calipers and all the necessary bits – rear drums, backing plates, and new hardware to refurbish the calipers. Of course, it wouldn't be a project without a few hiccups. Turns out the brake master cylinder was playing up and basically (to put it simply) keeping the brakes engaged. I had it overhauled, and after some adjustments, everything was working again. The whole process took a while, as you can imagine. To top it off, the front right wheel bearings were shot and needed replacing too. This is a rare occasion where I'm posting an update while it's all still fresh! These pictures were taken just this afternoon.
