I remember first day in mine. First turbo I'd ever been in but the first thing I thought was damn, this thing isn't fast enough!

Now a year later and I'm in the process of getting FMIC, Pod CAI, Bleed Valve to 10psi, dump added to my catback.

Hopefully this will give it the GO I need to be satisfied :(

I must say its been a few days now and I'm here to say I AM SPEECHLESS!

The whistle of my first turbo car, the handling of my M-spec, the short gear shift, the looks that "BETTY" gets at the lights ( Black Betty that is), the sound she makes, the push back in the seat, the envy of my mates, i just cant put it into words!!!!

Thats why I love this site, you have all been there and you all understand the BUZZ!!

I knew from the day I spotted my first R33 that I wanted one and after intence reseach and alot of convincing to the wife over 2 to 3 yrs I have my baby in the garage. It has far exceeded any expectation I had about the nissan skyline package.

Again words fail me, but i can see the money pit before me, and i can see it being there for along time to come.

Oh Black Betty, BAM BA LAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    • KYBs are typically twin tube, putting them in the lower tier of desireability. Do you just want to replace worn out ones for the lowest cost? I mean, you wouldn't just replace one end of a car, if the rears are a similar age to the fronts, then they are probably nowhere near what they should be, and likely won't be great against brand new fronts. So, to spend ~$800 on 2nd tier dampers, when you could get a decent set of MCA coilovers for <$4k.....? As to the strut tops. 1st up, the Sparesbox site specifically tells you that they are not correct for an R33. Beyond that, why do you think you need them?
    • That's not very Toyota of the Toyota!
    • Bringing an old thread back to life Looking to put some new front shocks in the r33Gtst and the KYB still look ok for a road car. Unless there are any other options aroind that price $200 a shock?  I’d like to replace the strut tops also, is this the correct KYB no. For the strut top, KSM7124?  https://www.sparesbox.com.au/products/kyb-strut-top-mount-ksm7124?srsltid=AfmBOoq-HDru8wSlLnQrhU9gCw_uYdKg8gUQzONY-EQOdnI5iXOWEUjY 341287 appears to be the front KYB shocks part no.  thanks all   
    • LandCruiser used to get a fluid flush every 12 to 18 months.   Only because it was about that often the electric motor on the master for brake assist kept dieing and needing to come off.
