R33 Non-Turbo

[str8jks]

hey everyone im about to buy a new car and i've decided i would love a skyline. Sadly im only on my p's so i wont be able to have a turbo which i will have to live with but i would like to know a few things about the non-turbo version if anyone can give me a hand, im after general fuel costs, any issues with this model car and any other facts that might help me out it would be much apreciated. Im looking to spend some time modifying the aesthetics and anything i can that wont change the performance and cause defects, just for the record im not a hoon nor do i intend on thrashing it i am just a starting enthusiest and just want to crusie in a nice car.

My R34 GT is getting about 400km on a tank, costing $70 a tank. Im guessing an R33 will be the same, seeing as most the parts they use are the same and compatible with eachother.
R33's dont look that great stock in my opinion, just the roundness on em, but there are decent body kits out there that make em look awesome im not gonna lie.

Wings with R33's suck (from the choices ive seen) unless you get a track wing, but thats why i prefer the R34's look meaner.

Mods you can do without defects:

3" cannon exhaust i believe is the biggest you can go its just under 94db which is legal.
Pod filter, as long as it is secured down, i wouldnt put one in because its just gonna suck warm air in, but if you do, mount it in the actual airbox so you get cool airflow from the front.

You can do other things obviously but they are the most popular, also 18" rims are best to start at, cheap tyres that size.

I havent messed with suspension, can be expensive, if your just gonna get lowered springs then that will be worth it seeing as its just for aesthetics.

the rb25de are great engines, trust me i got a rb20de and it is a slug. the 25 is an improved version, it has good bottom and top end while the rb20 only has good gains after about 4800rpm
