Hi all,

Question for anyone who might know or has done it, a friend of mine is stripping out an R33 GTR and I've got dibs on the rear swaybar, rear strutbrace, and the underbody bracing they have (goes from the cradle to the middle of the car?) and I'm curious to see if they'll bolt up to my R33 GTS-t for a quick upgrade. Eventually I'll be going to Whiteline/similar gear but in the meantime if it fits, I'll use it. So if anyone has any advice regarding it all fitting, that'd be great :) I'm sure the rear strut brace will fit but I'm not 100% on the other bits!

from what i have heard the strut brace won't fit. because of the plenum design but guess if Pierre has got it on his car it must fit. pretty sure everything else should fit fine

The front strut wont fit like krishy was saying because of the plenum and the rear strut bar fits so I guess thats what Pierre has only the back one and not the front

Hey guys, i have an R33 Gts-t thats fairly modified, i was wondering if an R33 GTR front strut brace would fit my Gts-t as i have a Greddy plenum fitted to mine. The GTR ones look more ridgid and sit lower across the engine so i was hoping someone could let me know if they fit up. I looked into it awhile ago but im not sure, googled it and couldn't find any useful info so i made an account here. Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi mate, a gtr strut brace will fit up and add some rigidity to the front end. Welcome to the forum

As mentioned above, I don't think the GTR strut brace will fit because of the plenum design. GTST sits slightly higher than the GTR. Personally I would go with an aftermarket option which is better suited to a GTST and most of the stuff on the market these days are of a pretty decent quality too.

PS welcome to the forums

      $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.

      Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.

      I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.

      I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      Silly question, as I bet you've checked already, but the motor turns over by hand yes? I suspect Neil has a spare starter, though if not, I believe I have a spare R33 (or two) starter.
