Drive through Springvale windows down, random comes up and says nice ride man...thought he was trying to rob me...it's just been that long since anyone has received a compliment in an R33.

Bet you get an EPA in the mail

It has it in the video name :D

Oh.

I'm on my phone can't see that shit.

Called the engine builder who built the car and engine. He basically said to me I'm an idiot for selling it, and the previous owner was another Idiot to spend so much and sell it to me..

Apparently a "very serious" build with no shortcuts on this one..

Now I don't know if I should sell it

Once you have decided to sell - do it.

I lost too many nights of sleep debating selling/not. Took me a month to post it up... But overall glad I sold it... On to bigger and better things as they say.

That said I miss the car, bad.

After driving a mates GTR @ DECA on Sat, just reaffirmed just how well my car was setup with a no expense spared attitude.

Not saying my mates wasn't done right, his is a daily so it needs to be driveable and not have 1.5 way diffs like mine etc.

Ah :(

This isn't normal for an R33 Gts-t

Most be an ulterior motive

yeh its already up for sale anyway. So i guess I'll just keep it at the price its at and if someone gives me an 'offer i can't refuse' then it'll be goodbyes.

Haha got the same compliment yesterday. Hang in there!!! Only a couple more years until all skylines have rusted away haha

lol... every sinngle compliment I get for my car starts with "I don't normally like 33's BUT............"

Yeah I got told the same, and now it's "I don't like Fords but.."

"I still don't..."

Haha!

    • I used the radium thing, makes the whole parallel assembly a lot more compact compared to any other way of doing it 
    • Racetronix also sells those ethanol content sensor bypass blocks. Adapter, Flex-Fuel E85 Sensor High-Flow Bypass, In-line No Sensor (ADF-FLEX-NS): Adapters - Flex Fuel | Racetronix Ethanol content sensor are originally designed to be on the feed line. These bypass blocks are meant to be ran in the feed line and not return. The continental ethanol content sensors have a 3/8" ID and not 5/16". This is why they are ran on the return line directly in conjunction with a low threshold sampling value VS in the feed with one of these blocks.    Haha we think alike, I used both original feed/return for 8AN feed, and one of the Hicas lines as a 6AN return. I also capped off and left the other Hicas line as a spare. 
    • Interesting, I haven't read about the issue with oil getting into the speedo in the cluster before. I'll have to take more notice with mine. The speedo on my R32's when I've run factory diff and tyre size have never been accurate as far as I can remember. The non Type-M GTS-t did come with 15" 5 stud wheels and smaller brakes, but that's less than 5% of them.
    • Good to hear the condenser you picked up off my brother worked all good. Do you think there could be an issue with your AC compressor itself or the clutch on it then? I don't know a lot about them so I can't really help but keen to hear what it ends up being. Keep the build thread going man, it's nice to look back on over time.
    • This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.
