Just liked the colour on the falcon XR6, added subtle amount of sparkle to it and thats about it. Colour is velocity blue.

Hi all, she has been a long time in the making but my car finally graces the garage at my home yet again!!! Here are some pics at the current stage. Does anyone know a good place to get automotive fasteners in the gold coast area? Need such things as plastic push in clips and nuts and bolts etc.

He said that it is only missing in photo due to breaking regularly. You need to get hold of aviation style clamps, they have a band aroun 15-20mm wide and use a 10mm bolt rather than the shit arse little screws. About 4-5 bucks each but guaranteed never to snap again....

Here is another one mate, exactly same as for a four door. The Reo needs a little trim and there is plenty of excess bumper you can remove with no adverse look. Indicator lights can sometimes need to be cut but there are certain types that will fit without modification.

Hey all, just had my car resprayed R33 sedan, what i need to do now is get it from Narrabri back to my house here at the Gold Coast hinterland. The car is not all that heavy as it has no engine, gearbox, tailshaft, intercooler, radiators etc tec. So what I am after is for a bit of help with getting hold of a car trailer, I would hire one but for two days it is quite expensive as I am running on very limited budget at the moment. So if any one has a car trailer that they dont mind loaning to help a fellow skyliner get his baby back it would be much appreciated.. Cheers

Thanks for the support guys! My missus thinks the colour is horrible. Good thing its not her car hey.... Dont worry Spooks Skyline, there is only sparkles in the engine bay. The colour is Ford velocity blue, came out on the BA model, looks much classier applied to a better canvas than a ford!!!

Hey all, the car has finally rolled in and out of the spray booth. All has gone well thus far. Now time to let the assembly begin!!! And this is it at this stage!!!!

If the 34 has the same starter motor as the 33 then i have a spare kicking around the shed. Will pass it on cheap as I hate to see people out of pocket as a result of crime!!

Manifold works well enough, rather than a performance mod its more just to cut down inlet length. However it works well enough for its intended purpose. BOV is probably not in the best place but it was one of the easier places to fit it and plumb it back to inlet, closer to the throttle body would be ideal I agree however sometimes its not that easy since plumbing it back would require one very long hose

Pictures were taken in spray booth as I was running out of time. Needs sunlight to highlight the sparkle. Cant wait for rest of car to be done thats for sure!!!!

Pics now added

Thanks mate, have already have one. Thanks heaps for your reply however Scott

A skyline, which you can easily put the kids in and out of. How can it be in the middle? Us with kids actually have four or five people everytime we leave the garage. Same motor, same everything and two more doors, looks arent really what counts as no two people like exactly the same thing. But the sedan is a great compromise for us with a family at the end of the day. Here are my two sedans mate!!!

Hasnt changed much "YET" those are prior to painting, am working on getting pictures as the car is getting done. Will hope to have some soon

Mainly Exhaust manifold, turbo and injectors as I already have everything else. Already have 40thou oversize arias forged pistons, bosch fuel pump, ECU, PWR FMIC, Turbosmart electronic boost controller and all the standard stuff. Parts I would like to get are new plenum chamber as the one I have although still modded has same flow restrictions as standard. When I begin putting car back together will be going whole hog with polished/painted everything and braided hoses and all that good gear. Will be a long term commitment but a good one when the end resullt is finally here

Bonnet sorted from good bloke in Ipswich, nice easy outcome to a potential annoying situation. Mate is a Spray Painter by trade and doesnt often get to paint whole cars (especially nice ones). He going above and beyond call of duty for me on this one, Car will come out SCHMIK

]Hey all, just an update of what has been going on with my project as of late. Car was taken to friends house in Narrabri NSW and stripped of engine, interior and pretty much everything for that matter in August this year. Before my mate started on it he had his parents land rover to finish (which dragged out forever mind you). So anyhow, it is now November and work finally started recently. He had this week off work and the car is coming along very nicely now. All guards, doors,boot,engine bay etc removed and stripped inside and out (back to metal). All apart from the roof and part of the body has now been primed and is ready for paint, hopefully by the end of next week the car should be ready for painting. However, in all good projects there comes a problem, the bonnet was found to have large quantities of bog in the RHS front area. So since we have already gone this far I am going to replace it with straight one and be happy in my mind that my car will be sporting less bog than previous. So I am currently searching for a bonnet for the car, perhaps vented! Have found one already if vented ones are not the right price. Have opted to paint the car the light XR6 falcon blue (velocity blue) and will two tone it with the bottom portion being Silver. Car is going back together with all engine pieces/fuel lines etc being painted and or polished. Have alloy radiator to go in already and am planning exhaust manifold and turbo upgrade as well. Car had 220kw@wheels but I want 270kw. Will hopefully have some pics of progress to post soon This is the car previously Hey guys, Just travelled down to my car on the weekend to help my mate out and we made some good progress with the engine bay now done. Colour is finalised with Velocity blue with 20% prismatic blu mixed in (sparkly stuff), here are the pics

Thanks for your reply mate PM sent. Is there any others out there, possibly vented bonnets etc?

Come on guys, I need it bad, will look into standard or aftermarket vented bonnet etc, I just dont want to have to re-use the old one. Will travel anywhere in Brisbane,Gold Coast,Sunshine Coast to get it.

I am up at Canungra, about twenty minutes inland from Gold Coast Thanks

My Skyline is currently stripped to nothingness getting a respray. We have found the bonnet to have an excessive amount of bog applied to it. Therefore rather than repair it I would prefer to replace it with a straight one. I have found a couple on ebay but most have damage or postage costs a fortune Thanks

Deal fell through as it had same problem as my one. Any one else have one?
