Hey Everyone,

My name is Emily & I am new to the forum and new to Skylines! I just sold my JDM GT-Four Celica and purchased a mint condition R33 Series 2 rb25dt. So different but so much easier than the constant wiring/detonation/everything issues that the 3sgte engine offers! Still plan on getting a group a rallye in the future but for now I am really enjoying the Skyline!

My new car has a couple of decent mods such as cusco front and rear strut bars, full performance exhaust system, upgraded racing brakes, professionally lowered suspension, aftermarket tail lights, full auto turbo timer, boost and oil gauges, nice dark tint, new silicon hoses, coils and iridium spark plugs.

I want to install my HKS electronic boost controller, lower the back a bit more and get a front mount happening soon oh and some enkei's when can afford!

Anyway, ill keep it short! Here are a couple of pics.

Thanks Joey! Yeah I wasn't expecting it to look as good as it did when I rocked up, went cheaper as has a blown exhaust manifold which I am half way through now then will focus on more mods

Thanks!

Actually ended up being the turbo to manifold gasket but there are 3 studs snapped off in the head :(

that sucks.

I had those gaskets gone when I bought my car.

but, once replaced, so nice and quiet.

I didnt have snapped studs though.

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
