Hi Guys/Gals,

 

First time skyline owner/driver here, have been lurking the threads and figured it was time to sign up.

I own an r33 sII, got a FMIC, hicas (not sure whether to go a bar or full lockout system), its got a gtr front end and rear adjustable wing with tail light in the middle, factory low mount turbo, factory coilovers, hks mushroom filter, the exhaust is 3" going through a muffler and resonator (not sure if this was factory or dumb australian import laws), other than that i know nothing more about it. My mate pretty much gave it to me, he knows nothing about it and he cant afford to waste all the money I can. 

Wasnt much of a car person in high school but i had never had boost before, I get it now. 

I might be too old to hang with the kids at the local servo friday and saturday nights so the plan is to keep it road registeres and drift spec to just have fun down the track every other weekend. 

Love all the awesome info here i look forward to chatting with you all

 

Cheers!

cheers prank

sorry for the late reply 

still learning about what the actual history of the car is, but for now I'm going to replace the timing belt and water pump, probably the radiator hoses and see what the radiator looks like, alot of small boring stuff before I can get to the fun stuff.

      R32 GTR EV? The leaf of the Godzilla's!

      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.

      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
