Hey guys, I used to have a Silver 33, but now i got a 1998 JZX100 Tourer V which should be in Canberra in a week... I figure its a 2.5L turbo RWD, so it's close to being a 'line right? :cheers:  Its pretty much stock, but wont be for long :D

Quite interested to see said Chaser!Even if it isn't a 'Line!

aaaah, it's the notorious hidden midnight purple 33 GTR we've seen around, welcome to the board.  anything extra special about her? or is she a stocker

That must be another one... mine is black, although you need to see the 2 colours in bright light or side by side to tell the difference. Mods are just the common ones - exhaust, pods, PFC, bigger intercooler, boost. Had Apexi N1 coilovers but removed due to being too hard, so back on stock suspension for now.

Nice GTR, must cadge a ride in one some day and see what the difference is in performance etc compared to the Gts.  If the gap is huge I'll have to upgrade, cos a GTR is a GTR.

jaycetook me for a drive in his GTR when we were up at mt ainslie.

the difference is huge, they are chalk and cheese, its not just the power, but the handling and esp the brakes.

if i were to buy a GTR i'd take an R32 over an R33, but thats just me.

if you get a GTR i want your wing and boot pods!!! lol

and hey dude welcome aboard mmm a black gtr and i thought the S2's looked sexy in black hehe

That is SO biased of you! You're only saying that cause you own a black S2... lol, jokes. i think ANY Skyline looks hot in black...

pfft u suck :) sif a 32 they are becoming as common as your lancers hehe FEAR THE 33 GTR :D

Nah man... Illl go with that!

ill Pick an R32 GTR over anything ANYDAY!!!! there the sweetest looking things out, yes true the 34 GTR is HOT, but i LOVE my 32's!!

Thought I'd add my Car.

Wine Red R33 GTS-T series 1, 94

18" ROH Drift R rims

Tinted windows

other then that it is pretty much stock

Planned mods are an intake and exhaust upgrade, hopefully by the end of the year. Then i'll look at a boost controller and computer, then the suspension. Then a body kit and a new paint job, a nice pearly white colour with a black carbon fibre hood. Then a turbo upgrade, FMIC, wastegate, blow off valve.

Well thats the plan anyway.

    • Yes, but it's not as easy as pulling a fuse on anything other than an R32. There's a routine you have to do, involving disconnecting a loom plug and bleeding down the preload.
    • A question for tuning awd, is it possible to disable the AWD? The stagea is an EA/T AWD, Toshi had said on a GTR, he was able to disable it and make it 2wd. Just wanted to double check if this was possible
    • Whoa, that's a name I've not see for a long time! Sorry to hear about the engine / turbo damage.  Fwiw with any engine problems it often really a case of just seeing what happens when it's apart, ymmv - I wouldn't rule out the possibility that the damage isn't even from the turbo failure, or possibly from a combination.  The airflow between cylinders isn't dead even, injectors can go off over time as well, with the turbos overboosting if you didn't have upgraded fuel system there could have possibly been a bit of leaning out - stock triggering is often a bit unreliable by this age too.  Basically its an old engine and a few things could have been going on, and you won't know how much work is needed until the engine is apart.  
    • I'm just shocked there's a euro driver on our roads who is thinking of other road users and not attempting to blind everyone. I wonder if Prank uses his indicator too...
    • Its hard to tell really. The Q50 owner's forum talks about it a lot and has quite a few people directly affected, but no idea what % of cars sold actually had the block replaced. Also, there seem to be 2 distinct issues which both get diagnosed by Infiniti as requiring a block replacement (no wonder they are going broke) 1. "Porous block" where coolant mixes with oil through thin or poorly cast parts of the block 2. Head coolant gallery plugs not sealing. If I was noticing engine coolant loss I'd start with cooling system pressure test (as always) and then I'd pull the cam covers and reseal the coolant gallery plugs on both side before worrying about a potentially porous block.  If neither of those did the trick it would be put in a second hand engine out of japan; I haven't checked pricing but I'm sure there are plenty around by now as they've been in production 10+ years
