Why not just get the suction cup mount? in my 33 gtr it mounts up to the plastic screen for the light. and also has an extension so sits down probably a bit further than this.

What brand buddy?

Love your build man and engine bay looks sooo good. jelious.

Thanks man. Heres some more photos.

So as i have stuffed the first post up. i thought id be able to edit it and then put all my build information in so far. but oh well it will have to be a post down. Whilst driving home. first thing i noticed is. the Brakes. im going to have to do some research and find what a good street upgrade is but thats definetly one of the first thigns i want to upgrade. as they really dont seem to be good enough for the amount of power this things got. As everyone knows i owned a 1996 S2 R33 GTST manual for not evena year. i basically did all the bolt on modifications sproosed up the engine bay and realised. why waist so much money on this when. i coudl sell this put a bit of my savings into it and get a gtr that i can Do up. Modify and upgrade for a very long time. Im definitely in no rush to do anything performance wise yet. as id really like to get used to the power before upgrading if i ever want to at all. Engine bay is Dead stock apart from having the boost restrictor removed. according to owner who didnt do it but previous owner had. Also the clutch had been replaced by the previous owner, with a twin plate clutch. This is very aggressive and definetly the heaviest clutch ive used in a car before. and the second it starts to grab its grabbed. The wheels are 9.5 on the front and 10s on the rear i am not happy with the wheel fitment so will be looking into getting same sized wheels and tyres ect but with a different offset to bring them out closer to the guards. any reccomendations would be greatly appreciated. Tomorrow ill pull it out and get some good photos. and i am very happy with the car so far. and the sound it makes is EARGASM It only has a 3.5" Cat back exhaust. and a de cat pipe. with fake cat welded over it. which i will look into and replace with a stainless hi flow cat.. So here is the pictures i currently only have of the GTR i will as stated get more tomorrow. they dont do the front end justice. its really nice and the paint has been resprayed 2 years ago. I think the first thing im going to do. engine/running wise is give it a full service even though it was recently done. ive looked into alot of oils and beleave ill go with a 15w50 oil as i see alot of people using this. unless you guys reccomend differently. also a brand would be great. fully synthetic im guessing? but first thing im goign to get a 400lph walbro e85 compatible pump.or the 460? ive heard some install.

why 2 AFR guages?

Hey guys i need some help with my Rb25det engine bay not sure weather to keep the rocker covers purple and paint my strut brackets purple also. or go a nice gold color instead Heres a few pics.

in need of Passenger side headlight and passenger side taillight. PS also you got the do luck rear lip?

the intake air must get pretty hot right there? no? not going to do a different intake bit further away and enclosed from the turbo?

awesome read man cant wait for pics. same ecu i was planning to get in the future with my R33 so would be awesome to see how you go.

haha oh well lets just hope it was some minus 30 shit and not r134a

No offence but i hope you got the air conditioning gas removed professionally or removed by your self the proper way and didnt just let it out into Atmos

So i think im neally done with neatening up my engine bay. maybe have 1 more good solid day of polishing and spray painting my strut brace support brackets purple liek the rocker covers and ill be done and its on to exterior mods. Ended up buying a already polished intake manifold for only $50 so i put that on today. what a fun job that was only took em about a hour. But im very happy with the final resulrt. looks much better form when i first got it i think. Final 3 pictures.

Forgot 1 photo :S Ps whoever cut these braided lines before. obviously has no idea how to and fraided the bageebus out of every end....

So today i quickly installed my sideskirts. until i get them painted and installed properly this will have to do. atleast its confirmed ive chosen the right skirts for what im planning. nice and simple. I also installed the catch can kit i bought second hand today. Pretty sure its an empty tank so im going to be opening it up and putting stainless wool in there to better catch the oil. unless i find baffles ect are in there. wanted to keep it legal so tis still plumbed back into the intake side. Not sure i like its position yet. or tis just the way the lines are. think i might get some new braided line and run them a bit differently but maybe leave it in the same spot. not sure if it looks right or not. maybe its just me. can anyone tell me what size they think this hose would be without measuring i am guessing it might be -10? ill measure tomorrow anyways and order in some new braided line. Thaughts? and yea now that im looking over it i thinki black would of come up alot cleaner than blue... oh well. i still got my black cooler pipe to throttle body. and can always buy new black vaccume line. and then of course radiator hose. well see maybe someone can photoshop my engine bay with black hoses for me?

hey man love the build good to see you get it going again think ive read through your thread twice since ive been on SAU. go Purple. i have a thing for purple. but i think your purple in your bay will look better than mine .

Picked up some M spec skirts today heres just a trial fit got em for $50 still chasing r33 gtr style rear pods if anyone knows where i could get em from. heres a pic of it mocked up on the car. looks good id say. also when i get this thing ive order off ebay im going to do a write up on hwo to make a custom Front lip. should look good i hope. also picking up a greddy oil catch can and a strut brace tomorrow. pics to come.
