looks tidy mate. good choice of wheels also

sr_silvia

Looks good, colour looks to be midnight purple. May want to remove that blue/white GT badge on the back as that was used for the non turbo models Wheels are nice

Chupzy

Thanks guys. Yeah Im notbsurebwhy the previous owner put the na badges on. They don't really bother me that much as I think it will be more of a hassle getting them off after the amount of silicone/glue/stickyshit the guy used.

Looks tidy as. Good luck with it.

I like it man, i just dont like the bodykit, not saying its ugly but there is tidier ones out there, something more straight? Very clean 9/10 R33

MAFIA

other than the sideskirts and the gt badges it looks awesome,nice colour!

liamr396

paint the mesh black

Chupzy

Haha it's on the 'to do' list :) also will be painting the intercooler black as it is a bit mangled but holds pressure fine.

love the color, looks tidy as as well man,rims are sweet, to bad its a 33 not a 32 ;P

gutless

Shut up.



OT: Looks awesome mate!

Are you sure its a Series 1 and not a series 1.5?

Should get rid of those badges even if its tricky with how they have been attached and depending on what sort of kits you like i would say there are 3 good options
1:stick with the 400R and change the mesh to black and the indicators to orange


2:GTR front bar would look pretty boss


3:if you like big front bars i would suggest DO-Luck, Top Secret or the BN sports look i chose for my 33





Also depending on what you do with your indicators, it make a serious difference when you install nismo clear side indicators

But at the end of the day, if you like everything you got going on there, then thats how you're living and you should stick to it
Its still an awesome looking R33!

@GUTLESS haha nope i complemented hi car and you tell me to shut up lol get a life man and stop being a keyboard warrior, and lol that was my cheek comment haha u just got mad cause you dont have a 32 huh got stuck with a 33 with an extraordinarily ugly front bar

@OP oh and i reckon the GTR front bar would look tacky on a non GTR, personally i think the front bar looks awesome as is, and man i said before but damn i love that color, nice find

Chupzy

Haha thanks again guys. Look if it was up to me it would probably be a stock body with no kits. That was the previous owners style not really mine. Will probably go with what gutless said with option 1 and just gO with what Iv got. A quick question for you guys as it seems a few of you have skylines.... Are you indicators really fast? I have no bulbs out afaik but I swear my indicators flash twice as fast as most other cars. Maybe I should check the flasher relay?

Ps: I secretly wish it was a 32 aswell :p haha. I only bought this one as it was really cheap off a mate and I couldn't stand driving a fwd lancer around!

Chupzy

Oh I forgot to add, yeah I think it is a s1 as I'm pretty confident it's a s1 motor. It has the igniter for the coilpacks ontop of that plastic cover, not built into the coilpacks, but if you can see anything suggesting its a 1.5 I would been keen to know what it is?

Stockish rb25det r33 makes roughly 150rwkw

Bouncy1992

haha yah buddy 32 ftw lol but this is one of the few 33's i like the look off

Chupzy

Just finished cleaning the AAC valve and taping up the coil packs and now the car is running better than ever. Did run into a bit of trouble with the neighbour as I tested it down the road as it wasn't running right, rev hunting hard and stalling. He came and had a go at me telling me to take my car to a garage ( at 2pm on a Sunday right outside my unit). Anyway, it was just a hose that had come off so we put it back on and smooth boost once more :))

gutless

Sick burn! I never want a 32 GTS. Not interested in outdated front ends and goatlicker engines


Your front indicators are probably Led and need an Led Flasher can or there is another method to make them work properly but i cant remember.


If it has the ignitor separate from the packs then its definitely series 1 motor. The sign that pointed me towards thinking 1.5 was that AFAIK most 1995 models were 1.5 but yours must be an early early 95 model



If you havent already, check all intercooler pipe clamps and connections and check for any splits in vacuum lines over the vacuum nipples. that tends to happen to the vacuum line coming off the back of the inlet manifold facing the firewall as mine and a few mates have had it just keep splitting.
If you can, either take it to a mechanic that can do a boost leak test or set up some way that you can use an air gun and a compressor into the inlet without air coming back out so you can check for pressure leaks.
Something random to add is if you ever need to remove the breather hose that goes between the tappet covers, you usually will have to use boiling water or some sort of heating implement to soften them up for removal otherwise they will just break and you will need new ones which is a pain.

Chupzy

Thanks for the reply. I won't have to take it to a enhance because I found the leak, the Giant hose going to the intake was popped off. Mustn't have tigened the hose clamp properly. Yeah the hoses really annoy me. I'm slowly going to replace them all vi should be able to get parts cheap from work sovi might get better clamps as well. I'm starting to hate the body kit as I scrape everywhere and it's a daily. My driveway to the set of nitsis really steep because of the angle of the road and I am running out of paint under the front end.

Bouncy1992

@gutless - that outdated end just so happens to be funking sexy lol lets not get started on front ends ayy after all yours is the worst i have seen on a skyline, i hope you got it for free cause the only thing that is good for is a bonfire

gutless

I wasnt really referring to the problem you had, this is something you wanna do so you can fix it before you end up on the side of the road or something.


haha. you are a child. have a nice life

Chupzy

Keep the negativity out hey mate? Personal preference is all it comes down too. I don't mind the s2 front ends. gutless' build thread was an entertaining read for me a few weeks ago. You have done wel IMO.

gutless

Thank you good sir

Bouncy1992

haha toughen up lads just a bit of truthful critism but hey if he likes it then whatever its his car each to their own

gutless

To be truthful is to say you dont like something and why. Like i dont like very small displacement 6s with no torque and thats my preference because i prefer a better drive than flogging my top end for some juice. You coming out with childish bogan slander about thats the worst and you should burn it and you're just jelly is just crude insults that offer no criticism whatsoever. Doesnt matter what you own on this members rides forum, what matters is your attitude and yours can be a bit off at times. Think before you speak a bit more often and it will all be gravy

This is a freaking nice 33 Coupe

Bouncy1992

smal displacement for now that is, 180wkw is fine for me at the moment, probs be 200 after tune but now looking at starting my real project, a RB30/26/25, just gotta decide the head is all and who to get to build it, been looking at R.I.P.S

but yeh i agree this is one of the best looking 33's that i have seen

gutless

How much do you plan on spending?

Bouncy1992

for everything (engine, manifolds, turbo etc ) hoping to keep it under 20k

gutless

Doable. But if complications regarding that amount arise, DO NOT cut corners on anything when building a 30 otherwise that money goes down the drain.

But let us not clog this thread up with banter.

Bouncy1992

lol true true i think we came to the conclusion that OP has one tidy 33 in the end now back to that commodore thread for lols

Chupzy

update: changed the indicators to orange today. Was going to paint the mesh but got slack aha. Anyone that doesnt like how the intercooler sits can feel free to come around and help me get it straight. Also including some pics of the damage getting done to my gaurds because of the new 9.5" wide rims. Thinking maybe getting the gaurds lipped is the best option at this time. Anyone know an approximate price to get all 4 done?

gutless

very nice!
