Why is that mate ? Interested to hear your opinion

Any mods required

Hey guys What's the best fitment for TE37 and XD9 rims on a R33 GTR I was thinking 18inch or 19inch but what dose everyone think is the ideal size and fitment?

killa build mate

Can't stop looking at this car..... I think I'm in love Oh.... and one for the ladies hahahahaha

Looks great

That sounds like a killa run mate I will flick you a PM when I'm in Perth may not be for a while as I head to the USA and Las Vegas at the end of this month for a few weeks

A few pictures of Nick working his magic at The Exhaust Center Midvale

Very keen on a cruise IMACUL8 the only issue is I'm based in Port Hedland and only fly down every 6 to 8 weeks for a few days lol Yeah Hadouken I still need to see if there is still a leak in there. My plans are to Dynomat the boot for noise suppression then false carpet floor will make the boot a lot more presentable I will have to double check the tyres there not the 123s semi slick tyres they are just the road tyre I have the 123s tyres on the front of my F6 there actually a really good street tyre. As for track tyres they lasted about 2 laps before they turned to shit lol So headed back to Perth Monday morning noticed the exhaust was hitting against a few spots on the under carriage so headed to The Exhaust Centre in Midvale and had a chat to Nick he wanted to have a quick look at the system so we chucked it on the hoist for a gander. He said it looked like the system didn't belong on the car... He was rite it suited a GTST In a blink of an eye he was going crazy cutting and modifying changing angles ect within an hour the exhaust was sitting a lot better clearance was heaps better and it sat a lot higher Nick said "sorry dude that's the best I can get it for the moment" I took it for a quick spin over some rough roads and no more rattles The man knows his stuff I don't know why you would use anyone else I dropped the car back to Peter Gray with a list of things to sort. RHF CV boot leaking requires new clamp 4WD system not working 1st service on engine. I managed to rack up 1300kms in 4 days hahahaha Big tune time

Sunday morning was spent getting some more kms on the motor so we can look at getting the car retuned and go make some power I took the car for a spirited drive up through the hills and a few private streets I know I ended up finishing my drive about 30kms past Northam in a little town called Grass Valley I was in the cockpit for around 3 hours and I have to say it is more comfortable than I thought it would be. Being just under 6 foot 8 I thought I may have had to stop for a rest but it was all G I stayed the night at the folks house andhad time to go over the car in the old mans work shop I should have a hoist in it soon which will make life a lot easier

Just a quick video looking around the car with it running The cams aren't really that noticeable at idle so hopefully won't get bothered by cops https://youtu.be/X-oeBs99258

Headed back down to Perth in the GTR after sorting the F6 out Decide to take a few mates out for a cruise ended up being big cruise from Ellenbrook , Perth city , South Perth , Kings park and out to Fremantle and North Mole Didn't get back until 3am but worth feeling tired in the morning Took a couple of pictures when we stopped at Kings Park. Perth may be small but wow its a beautiful place https://youtu.be/zvqxpWGbpMw

Epic Saturday in the work shop working on the F6 watching the AFL grand final and a good old BBQ

I drove the car a heap Friday arvo and night then set off Saturday morning to head out to a work shop in Bindoon were my F6 was to replace the input shaft I broke toik a few pictures of the beast before me and a mate left

Well that was a crazy weekend but had a blast Flew to Perth Thursday night got up early Friday morning and headed up to gidgigannup to pick up the GTR Spent a good few hours going over the car with Pete and several test drives The only issue I found was the tyres were 4+ years old and rock hard I drove the car down to a mate who hooked me up with 4× Achilles 123 sports tyres Took it for another drive and transformed the car ☺

1850kg+730rwhp+triple plate clutch=bang

Well its been a long stint in Port Hedland, The car has been ready to go for around 3 weeks. Peter has been driving it around and sorting any little issues that pop up. One problem was at idle in traffic the temp would creep up to 1/2 way. this was diagnosed as the Greddy water pump pulley being to large so at idle the water pump was barely circulating water around the engine. so a smaller pulley was sourced for the repair and I think the thermo fan has been removed and a viscous hub and fan fitted Its been 8 weeks since I have seen it up close and I tell you I can barely contain my excitement cant wait to feel the power of the RB I also have another issue to resolve......... last time I was in Perth I was driving my 730rwhp F6 Typhoon when the input shaft in the gearbox decided enough was enough I now know what a Barra engine sounds like at 8000rpm due to the fact it free revved to about that hopefully I didn't hurt the engine New input shaft is here and should be back on the road this weekend

Was the car covered under insurance?

Best price on the R33 cooling panel please shipped to WA

Interested in freighting at my cost

Keen to get a hold of some of these

I would be very keen but I would need them freighted

Got a couple of items in the mail yesterday will be taking pride of place on the GTR when I'm back in perth
