Hi,

I have just purchased a 1998 Midnight Purple R33 GTS-T. Its in great condition and low K's for its age. I am wanting to restore it to mint condition. I am having trouble locating a owners handbook anywhere on the internet. Can anyone help? I have found the links to service it and pull it completely apart and rebuild engine (workshop manual) but kken to get an owners manual somehow.

If its already in great condition why do you need to pull it apart and fix it?

There not that complicated to pull apart and most things have been covered on here

There is no English manual for the body/chassis that I'm aware of, but since i found a wiring diagram I haven't felt the need for a chassis manual

Thanks,

Yes its in good shape so very little needed at this point, but I would prefer to have as much info as possible. Not about to strip it down mechanically. I have just been replacing rear tray carpet, stereo , detailing inside properly and taking the odd marks of upholstery and paintwork. Having previously driven V8s and never one of these I am assuming I should run 98 octane fuel as this was a direct Japanese import then to one owner only prior to me. Has power/snow switch on centre console. I guess snow is obvious. neutral position is where I have been driving it. Power position...does this just change the rpm range at the top or when should this be used?

New to skylines so sorry for some basic questions........for my first week of driving.

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By Victory · Posted

      All I can say Duncan is good luck and I hope that Neil did not run any E85 in Cheryl. I have recently experienced the full spectrum of fuel tank issues in my R33's that had been caused by E85 and contaminated fuel. When you take the cover off the top of the tank and have a look inside you will get an understanding of how easy it will be. Best case situation is clean fuel with minimal contamination. My GTR was like this and it was a very simple operation to just grab the fuel pump carrier bracket and slide it up and out of the tank. My three GTS_T's had different levels of fuel contamination that was probably caused by E85 in the fuel.  In the worst case all of the metal components in the tank had rusted to the point where there were pieces of rusted metal swirling around in the tank. This required the removal of the exhaust, the tailshaft, the complete rear cradle and the fuel tank. The components in the tank were that rusted that it took days to get the fuel pump carrier and the mounting brackets out of the tank. When the tank was finally cleaned, everything inside the tank had to be replaced. With the tank all back together I could then reinstall it in the car along with everything else that had to come out. Good luck and I hope that you find a clean tank.

      It is a two door. It is black and also still has the OEM wheels and stereo. Exact model would be KR_R32RGFEL_SS According to GTR-Registry.com is a 2 Door Coupe; RB20DE; 2WD no HICAS; MT.F5; (11L) Projector Headlamps and Fog Lights; (12_) Electronic Active Full Auto Air Con (Climate Control); (13-14SS) V Selection -- Which seems to be accurate description of my variant. Will try to upload a few pictures soon. The OEM wheels look like the below image. Image is taken from the goo-net-exchange website.
