Hey guys, im having a lot of trouble with my r33,

basically when i first got it i was all excited cause i waiting 15 weeks for it and when i got it i had problems from day 1

basically when i first got it i would plant it and it would take off really fast then just die, like a boost cut, and i thought that was normal but my mate said no, so i didnt even end up getting my 94 r33 gts25det black nissan skyline that day anyway cause they had to check it out AGAIN

anywayz

they fixed that said it was a computer setting or something

i think they dun know shit but anywayz,

things kept happening time and time again

clutch got replaced with a brass buttom clutch and my flywheel redone

then my car was going slow, laggin, having trouble starting, so someone recommended fuel pump needed to be replace, OH YEAH IT DID?, they had a 2.0L fuel pump out of a non turbo car in my 2.5L Turbo skyline, performance lack,

so i got a nice aftermarket bosch 600 horse power one for my car, NOT CHEAP,

anywayz

all this been done

car running really good

but still doesnt start straight away, why it take so long to start sometimes,

not just that but

i be driving when its cold, like i will finish work at say 11 at night and come out to go home basically drive my car, it takes its time to start, then when it starts ****ing i take of and it like vrrrrmmmm vrrmmm vrrrrmmm like jumpie, like i have put my foot on brake then accelerator, brake acclerator etc...

boost cut

or something

dead coil pack

im ****ing no skyline expert

ask me about computers and i will tell you anything you want to know

but skylines i dont know shit about and thats why im on skylinesaustralia.com forum

when u thrash ur skyline, expect shit to break. can garuntee u that just abt everyone of these boys have or will replace their clutches/belts/ pistons, whatever in the lifespan of their ownership. then again u could have scored a lemon. If ur from morley WA. then do a search for the workshops that sauwa endorses, can almost garuntee they will solve ur problem

Just go to the WA section of the forums and either look for a thread that addresses it or ask someone.

BTW it doesn't sound to me like he thrashes his car, sounds like he's saying he's had these problems from day 1. Sure if it's cold weather you should let your car warm up (for its long term health), but even if you chose to ignore that it should still start on time and not give problems in the short term.

Good luck with sorting it out.

    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
    • Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
