Afternoon all, been a skyline owner in the U.K. for 15 years and invariably for about half of those it’s been off the road at numerous times. Currently it’s having a big engine build done and whilst searching for info I decided it would be worthwhile signing up (I grew tired of the GTR forum long ago). Here’s a few pics of my money pit.

Welcome. I'm known for saying nasty things about the way that R33s look. But I like that one a lot.

?? I’m always happy for a (constructive) critique lol and am of the opinion that if u post your car hoping for likes, then you need to be prepared for some dislikes too, as we don’t all like the same things. But thank you for your kind words!  33 is a tough old girl, sometimes they look amazing, other times they just look weird. I wanted mine to look different, heavily modified, but understated (so that you keep noticing little touches the more u look). I’m in the process of changing the rear spoiler and have just bought a full carbon bee-r style assembly - yet to find a rear spoiler that looks good from more than one direction, hoping the new one will suit.

      Attesa pump mount options / ideas? R32 gtr style.

      By codygrimm27 · Posted

      Wanted to reply to this topic. I'm in the somewhat same boat with our Stagea. I'm trying to install a different rear diff. The Stagea/Skyline uses mounts on top of the rear diff for the ATTESA pump. Any way you can relocate the pump? I did find this kit https://theskylineshed.com/products/nissan-oem-attesa-mounting-kit-to-suit-r32-r33-r34

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      By codygrimm27 · Posted

      So here's the deal, my wife picked up an S2 AWD Stagea. Super cool, clean car. Looks like the owner in Japan went track spec as it's got some heavy modifications including Exedy twin disk, tension rods, coilovers, GTR brakes, oil cooler & a Nismo 2 way rear diff. Now, cool mods for sure. But, she is just using this as a casual daily driver. The 2 way rear is AGGRESSIVE. It also has solid subframe bushings & poly diff bushings. So that doesn't help either. So far I've tried changing the diff fluid to the correct fluid. Even tried a little friction modifier. No help. This thing clunks, skips the tires & has some slight whine/NVH when driving. Might sound like I'm being picky, but just trying to find a better solution. Here in the states, it's impossible to find a Stagea rear diff. No luck. I do have a 300zx non-turbo diff. Same ratio, 5 bolt axles. On the Stagea, you need both front & rear diff ratios to match. This car is a 4.083. I'd like to just swap a normal rear diff into this thing. Nothing fancy. Even open diff is fine. She's not tracking the car LOL The difference is that the ATTESA pump mounts to the top of the rear diff. There are 3 total mounting points for the pump on top of the diff. With all this being said, what would be the best way to go about this? I could remove the Stagea diff & see if I could get somebody to possibly weld the 3 tabs/mounting points onto the 300zx diff so we could mount the pump on the 300zx diff. I could swap the internals from the 300zx into the Stagea diff but this is not in my comfort zone. Is it possible to mount the ATTESA pump to the underside of the car? Sorry for the paragraph. Just trying to figure out how to go about this. Any help is much appreciated! Stagea Differential - Note two top tabs, one bolt hole for ATTESA pump mounting   300zx Diff - No mounting tabs Also found this mounting kit ?? https://theskylineshed.com/products/nissan-oem-attesa-mounting-kit-to-suit-r32-r33-r34

      Hi Luke, haven't thought about it a lot, trying to get the car into the paint shop first.  Did you want to make an offer? As stated above, I'm just looking for fair market price.
