GReddy's R33 GT-R, Built to Go 300+ km/h in 1995

- GReddy Performance and Trust are known as gods in the tuning industry for a reason. Kenji Sumino, who helms GReddy, and his team of badass engineers, were tasked to build out the newest GT-R (at the time) to be able to run over 180mph in the Yatabe Top Speed Time Trials. That might not sound too crazy today, but we're talking about the year 1995, which is basically Season 1 of the tv show Friends. Also, sparkle paint job.

Seeing something that hasn't been changed and has been kept the same way for over almost 30 years feels like you are in the past! Such a sick and amazing car. 🔥
1996 is almost 30 years? Please dont say that, I had to recheck how old I am😅 ITS STILL MID 20'S
@@tmangt1 He just said that
@@tmangt1 well let me confirm your fear, you’re OLD 😂 im 27 & was born in 1995. Gone call it 30 years might as well 😂😂😂👍🏾
Ridiculous chrome engine bay, fast n furious style interior, and paint so flaked it probably added 10 pounds . I adore it.
BBK jjj&&h*jh*****uhh&&&&&M😅0❤❤.😅
So amazing
The car look awesome! 🤩
It looks like it's travelled through time, straight from the 90's Shutokou Expressway.
I love it
The story gives me shivers. The transmission noise brought me back to the sleepless gran turismo endurance days. Truly legendary.
At a “sleep over” as a kid we did the endurance racers trying to save up for the polyphony f1 car, when we where all asleep a friend spent all the money on the wrong car. Still makes me laugh to this day
Quaife makes the noisiest dog boxes I've ever come across, really makes you hate yourself for choosing it.
@@cheesepizza87 I remember doing this race solo to get that F1 car! The game was on easy mode after that. I lost count of the amount of times I did that endurance race in the F1 car but my brother thought I bought a GameShark to get a money cheat.
I wish I had the same patience for games these days! Even GT7 doesn’t quite do it for r compared to back when I was a kid.
@@gusmedero2499 the nostalgia + all the child like optimism 🤣 staying up all night with not a care in the world, the game felt so ahead of it’s time, physics etc feel like it gave me the deep routed passion for all things 4 wheels, appreciate your story dude ✌🏽
@@cheesepizza87 Only two things kept me up all night back in those days and they were Gran Turismo and Final Fantasy! Simpler times
This was such a good watch, this thing is well built! Friggin dope. 🔥🔥 -Edgar
Pushing 900 hp, 10k rpm, old tech for the injectors and boost, still got HICAS, the fuel pumps... The mechanical and electrical parts are crazy already for a late nineties car. Adding to that all the visual mods, this is an absolutely incredible build and It's super cool it remained in great shape and almost complete 25+ years later
The history behind it is sick
300/k in 1995 was wild fast
Still is wild fast
Mid 180s is definitely moving even now. In something raw like this it be even more insane
They are 33 has always been my favorite. I like its muscular look better than the 32 and a 34 looks kind of bulky. That transmission sounds like one of my first cars I'm an older guy so my first car was a 71 Nova with a 427 Corvette motor and a Muncie 4 speed Rock crusher transmission. It made a wine just like that when you drove it straight cut gears no synchronizers. Bravo for keeping this classic alive I've always admired Kenji's buids and can't wait to see how this gets restored and finished out
This Greddy R33 S-ROC is just as legendary as the 400R. Maybe even moreso. I drooled over it in the early days of the internet and magazines. Love seeing it is still alive and well
I remember being in high school my senior year and was obsessed with import tuner magazine and Turbo magazine and seeing this car at the same time falling in love with the R32 Skyline. Brings me back to when the import scene took off
Plus Super Street which was more of a compilation of aftermarket ads and tuner car photoshoots and my personal favorite Sport Compact Car
I'm a 01 grad I feel ya
I read Turbo magazine in most of my hs classes
why is it always the asians with all da money and nice cars?
SO MUCH RESPECT.......these are the cars i dreamed off back at high school. but just to listen to you and kenji talking. most asian's talk with respect, no bad language, and humble. so nice to hear in the world today.
I remember this car being featured in Max Power magazine in the U.K in (I think) '98... I'd seen Skyline GT-R's before, and I'd seen metal flake paint before but only on hotrods and lowriders, never on a tuned, Japanese super coupe, as a 12yr old car nut I was utterly blown away by every aspect of the build... Loved watching this video and remembering that era of JDM car building, when four figure power numbers were almost unheard of, and a sequential box was the most amazing thing ever... Good times, great cars!!! Thank you Larry for the awesome feature.
This video fixes the puzzle I've always tried to figure out about GReddy, Grex, and Trust. I understand the alliance more now.
That paint is intense...... The interior is so unique. All the chassis reinforcements....the engine sounds really good. what a sweet car.
The sound of the straight cut gears is what does it for me.
@josephmatuszak3855 what is the Name of the colour?
@@stabilesbrett3071 Custom. You think I know what they laid on it in 1995? It's at least a 3 paint scheme, with a base/sparkle/clear. It's close to a Bayside Blue, but has a much lighter flop.
The noise this car makes, along with it's story, can make grown man cry:)
So cool to see this historic Trust/GReddy masterpiece in its original form and see and hear it drive! Thank you for showing this to us.
Larry always bringing us that much needed content
Kenji has so many cool stories. I can't believe how quick the time passed listening to him recount the history between himself and this 33. Thanks for the video Larry.
My first Hot Import Night's was in San Jose, Cali back in 05. I was also at the first Formula D event back in 04
At the time, Infineon Raceway. Remember videos like this were only available on limewire or Kazaa. Thank you for this Larry!!
Also, Thank you to Super Street, Import Tuner, H.C.I, sports compact for all your content during that time frame!!
It's interesting to me how I find myself watching this channel way more than the hoonigan stuff. There's nothing wrong with the Hoonigan channel, is just that this type of content fit's me way more! Love both and I'll keep watching both, but this channel has a special place in my heart!
wow!!!!! im 34 years old and I grew up watching option videos with these cars!!!!!so amazing it almost brought me tears seeing this car!!!!
This is what a SEMA build would he like back in the 90's. No detail is unfinished, and they actually performed. They wouldn't even have considered incomplete builds like a missing driveshaft and such back in the times of this show car build.
MUCH respect to Greddy for supporting Honda D16 when nobody else was. I can still install\uninstall the sohc turbo kit in 3 hours like I used to do in highschool for CA smog checks. I hope Greddy survives this current attack on enthusiasts and decent people.
oh man, this car went unchanged since 1996 TAS, wow! I remember first time seeing it in car magazine, along with the yellow Supra, Trust made a big impression on my young mind that year.
This video is awesome thanks for showing this to us kenji is such a Legend and to see the 33 still like it was and never changed makes it even more awesome keep up the good work Larry.🔥🔥🔥🔥
How much flake do you want?...Kenji, "All of it!"
Thanks for this Larry, much appreciated!
I love the vibe of these videos, keeps it real and always lets the discussion breathe.
What amazing story that you were able to get about this build and the journey it took full circle to end up back in the original builders hands. I love that all these '90s builds are starting to come back into the light.
I remember when this car arrived in the US and featured in Turbo Magazine. This engine turns 13,000 rpm. It was my inspiration to acquire a 97 model in 98.
Thank you for having such awesome content. This car takes me back.
What an amazing story! Loved this Larry, amazing job!
A 50 minute upload on my birthday, about one of my favorite cars ever produced, from my favorite channel. You kidding me? Let's fucking go!
This is a great ep Larry. This is the stuff I love. Attention to detail of the '90 era has always been extremely interesting to me. I'm also excited to see your content focus change a bit into the GTR history. Thanks for this.
Crazy crazy car and story!! Hearing that sequential whine brought a huge smile of nostalgia, thank you for this!!
Amazing i remember that car running YATABE, congratulations and big thanks to both you two for bringing that beast again and share with new generations what was great GOLD AGE of tuning and performance
i love that they're at the GReddy shop and they have a damn clean EF hatch in the background
Hats off Larry you ask great questions and you narrate and guide such a excellent story, Wow! Mad props bro🫡
Awesome content as always sir👍🏻🤙🏻 Im just happy that the R33 is more appreciated now then ever because alot of JDM car fans despised it and favored the R32 and 34 over the 33 but now its a car that car nuts want. Its one of those "You either love it or hate it skylines and when it comes to Skylines overall, i love them all 🤘🏻💀🤘🏻🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
15:03 The car looked so good with those polished AMKREAD wheels! 🤩
I wish it still had them today!
I hope you find them back one day!
This is gold🔥🤟 nostalgia is an understatement thanks Larry!
That’s A Amazing Piece Of True GTR History!!! 8,000 RPM launch 10,000 RPM!! It was SCREAMING Around the track!! 60 pounds of paint!!! WOW!!! It’s dated but it’s a DREAM CAR FOR ANY ONE THAT LOVES THESE CARS!!! I would get it up to date safety wise but other than that leave it alone!!! It’s Sweet Historical!!!! I remember those days I was graduating High School!!!
I remember seeing this car in Option and some Japanese magazines (And not knowing what they were saying). This car really left an impression on me, what a special treat to still see it exist and Kenji giving a run down on it.
Time capsules like this are so cool!
I saw “The Blue one” at 5:00 that they brought over in 1995 make over 1,100 wheel hp on a portable dyno jet at Battle of the Imports in Palmdale, California. Elevation of over 4,000 feet.
This is so cool to see a time capsule of the best of the best 90's tuning
So great to see all the 90’s gauges and piggy back computers. That’s how it was back then. It was all top of the line stuff to get if you wanted to squeeze more HP out of your car.
95' was a great year for Japanese cars. i own 2 vehicles from Nissan that are a 95 my Hardbody truck its a 4x4 5 speed manual with the LSD rear end and my 95' S14 that is built :) and i got a 75' 280Z also that i have been refreshing it has a lot of parts that needs replaced. Love your channel Larry and to see this stuff is a real treat :)
r33 HICAS actually works very well, unless you are drifting the car there is not a need to delete it. Much much much more reliable and less wonky than the r32 HICAS.
Growing up 80s-2000's Japan was awesome time, car/performance wise.
Glad to be a part of it too.👌
LOVE IT, I also love that he was not afraid to SEND IT!
Sick car Kenji love the color! Greddy is awesome company. I have had a few GReddy parts on a couple cars and never had a issue!
This car is legendary! I believe they had this engine with the 2x T67 turbos on display at the Trust factory.
Super humble dude. This should be good. Love the history. Thank you 👍🏾
Wow I wish I knew this whole back story before. I knew it was a big og build back in the day but didn't know all of it. Blessed to see this in person
That’s got the bass boat stripper glitter paint 😍
This car is so beautiful, and insanely cool.
Especially because it represents the era 😍
It's amazing how far technology has come in the last 27 years. I mean you just have to re-watch the first F&F movie - and do a hilarious chuckle at a PC with a 12" CRT and floppy disk drive... 😁😇
"Visoral" imerges you into every sound and sight that creates a car born of the 90's only true petrol heads can appreciate. The story is amazing and the car is perfect.
It’s awesome that the car still exists today!
Just a shame that it doesn’t have the polished AMKREAD wheels anymore…
It looked the best with those wheels! 🤩
The car had more presence with them!
I hope that it gets those wheels back one day for the ultimate look!
What a treat, thanks lazza
Awesome piece of history ! Screams 90's
This car is so beautiful, just being able to shoot it and see it in person at the hive auto garage is beautiful
Kenji as been in the back ground on many à build.
This was great to see how , Kenji,got to be where he is.
When I saw him first in 2015 with Sung Kang , I thought here is Kenji coming to Cali being bank rolled , and opened his shop.
This video changes everything , I assumed from what I saw From Florida, on, CZcams. I'm not in Cali
Kenji should be more, in front he has plenty experience .
Thanks for watching guys, If you want to support what we do here make sure you pick up some art for your walls: larrychenprints.com/
You can Kenji almost like tearing up reliving his experiences with the car 27 years ago. Walking down memory lane n reliving the days gone by. Yes the R32 n R33 RX cars were our poster cars back then
I love the long videos. Any shorter wouldn’t do the car justice
Yes, Trust was big with Honda. I remember the Trust SP exhaust on my Civic!
Can’t believe that’s the same paint from 1995, that thing looks like glass 😍😍😍🔥🔥🔥🔥. The plastic bits are scratched up but that paint omg. If only factory Nissan pain held up like this instead of having to pay for ceramic coating & not drive the damn thing lol
2:37
Like 10 - 15 years ago?
Way longer to be fair! 😉
This is definitely a style from around 25 years ago…
It looks awesome!
turbo magazine SuperStreet and Import Tuner where my adolescence❤❤❤❤ love seeing this type of homage thank you🎉 sincerely
Cool video, more like this pls! how about the Top secret supra next Larry ?
The paint reflects hard as on dull dusty grey asphalt,. next level
BEST LOOKING AND SOUNDING R33 🤩
A blast from the past 🔥🤘 and people thought Japanese cars don’t have chop
Thank God for Greddy.. Legends
the flake and blue/sliver combo goes hard. still only really interested in 32's but...
So glad it ended up in the hands of someone who took care of it. Unlike the BN Sport R34 demo car that was sold to a dude in the UK & was ruined. God bless the previous owner!.
I remember this car from the magazines back in the day!!
The video is just 🔥, but those vintage Greddy jackets is too 🔥🔥 i need one lol
Amazing! from my day, when I was working for Jacks company Aerotech, working on Kenji's roadster...Goodtimes'
Much respect car's a legend still looks 90's
What a life for a man and a single car.
This is amazing !!
Incredible story, btw the video was a tad choppy on some scenes. Great interview 🎉
Im so curious what made that metallic sound at idle and went away once it got warmed up (?) Such a wild machine!
Liked for that straight cut gears whine
Amazing 👏 👍🤙
Never heard of this skyline definitely my favorite skyline
Awesome to see the Legend return to its Rightful Owner’s… Veilside Combat R33 - JUN Hyperlemon I & II - HKS Drag GTR R33 - Top Secret R33 - All with Golden era Tuning 👑
900hp in 95 is compared to an VR38DETT having 4000hp now👍🏼
T67’s or Single T88 - keep it all period correct please👌🏼
Super Awesome GTR 33
Oh this is gonna be good
so great
R33 is my favorite.
This sounds straight from 90s 🤩
The BEST GTR
This car is sooooo good
“How much metallic flake would you like to go into the paint ? “
“ Yes .”
I'm old enough to know all of those GReddy products. I used the ProFec EBC on my car.
I'd love to see this car tuned on a modern Engine Management like a Haltech Elite. I promise you it will be a whole new level of performance
