Even back in the day, some importers were renowned for bringing in crashed cars, giving them a quick touch up + respray and making them look mint

No new updates from the op after covid, hopefully everything is ok...

Very informative post, thanks for the details!

Nice build thread. Ive got an nd myself, fun little weekender.

Sounds like another easy admin cash grab

Front wheeled vtec powered rb monster

Looking forward to the build thread!

Thats what ive been doing. Ive got a million questions but i know theyve probably all been answered before at some stage. Todays research included nismo heritage seat covers, s3 projector headlight retrofits and how to remove/paint the rocker covers

Hah im glad im not the only one who feels this way! On a side note as im new to these forums, i can see there is a model specific section but it seems to lump all the various series into one large section. Is there any way to see only r33 post? I cant seem to find any advanced search options either. Makes finding information difficult...

Hah dont worry, my adult brain has this conversation every single day. Dont waste your money, invest more of it into shares, pay down the mortgage. Then the bedtime insta doom scrolling begins and after being bombarded with gtr's my mind is set: im definitely getting one! I have the current model mx5 as the weekender, but i just miss my boost and literally like your username, the sututu's that come with it. I remember with my 2nd supra, as it had twins and vvti, they used to spool real early, like 1,500rpm so you could just be a spooly boy all day long. Some people say they get over it after a while, not me tho.

I grew up with everyone having jdm cars, had a couple of tt mk4 supras myself, so i know all too well how easily costs can add up! Only thing different this time around is i have a mortgage and other grown up stuff to pay for, so (hopefully) that will help limit spending on crazy mods for the car hah.

Thanks, i see that Racepace motorsport is 10 minutes away from me, from my googling they look to be well respected in the gtr scene, guess that will be my first stop, im assuming they can help with basic ecu tuning.

If im aiming to keep the car pretty stock, just an intake & exhaust at most, would the aftermarket ecu be required? I see all the things the mighty car mods guys do with their haltech units, but their also doing quite a few mods at the same time...

Good tip about the black wiring and kill switch, i didnt consider that!

Hey everyone, am looking at getting an R33 gtr shortly so am doing some prep work before hand. I know back in the day most insurers required an alarm with immobiliser installed, and 'viper' seemed to be the go to brand. Any recommendations on whats a good brand/product to use in 2024?
