Hi All, 

Like to introduce myself. My name is Dan, live in Melbourne been a long time viewer of the forum but now I am a member. So excited that I've been lucky enough to pick up a 1993 R33 GTS-T White Pearl. 
Been looking for Skyline since I was a teenager, couldn't afford them during the sexspec days of 2000's but now I am all grown up and have got my hands on a pretty nice one. Needs some work but happy put in the hardwork and learning. 

I will post regularly with build updates etc, please don't smash me online if I ask any dumb questions. 

Looking forward to the future and getting the car up and running. 

Here are some attached photos of my R33. 

Talk soon all!!! wooooo I have a R33

Hi Guys, 

Update. battery was dead and even though charged now, it hasn't got enough cranking amps to start the engine. 

Also have decided to go with a Blitz SE Intercooler kit from Just Jap and use the standard intercooler piping holes. This was also the setup for the old cooler. 

Now need to find a good battery.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      GTR front looks good. If you don't like it, I'll swap you a rolling shell R33 for it. Give you a fresh base to start with.

      soon I also prefer the old look. At least I have more clearance for wheels up front now.

      GTR R34 Limp Mode

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Has equal chance of cleaning an AFM and f**king an AFM. I think you can work out what happened. When the Hitachi ECU sees the AFM die and goes into the associated limp mode, then it will start and run just fine, because it ignores the AFM and just runs on idle maps that will do what it needs to get it going. But there is no proper load signal, so that's about all it can do. My suggestion? If you don't want to go full aftermaket ECU, then get some R35 GTR AFM cards and some housings to put them in, in the stock location, and Nistune the ECU. Better to do a good upgrade than just replace shitty 40 year old tech with the same 40 year old tech.

      GTR R34 Limp Mode

      By steven7270 · Posted

      So my car was recently having trouble starting on initial crank, I would need to feather the gas for it to start up but besides that it would start and run fine. So I clicked the idle air control valve (with throttle body cleaner) and cleaned the MAF sensors (with MAF cleaner). The start up issue was fixed and now the car turns over without the assist of the throttle, but the car is in limp mode and wont rev past 2.5k RPM. From what I understand the IACV would not put the car in limp mode, so I am to believe it is the MAF sensors, but it was running fine before and now I cant get it out of limp mode. I cleaned the MAF made sure the o rings were seated properly. Made sure the cables were plugged in properly, the cables also both read the same voltage. Does anybody know why this is or what could be causing this or how to get it out of limp mode?
