You don't need huge CCA. Mine runs 3 fuel pumps and all accessories and makes over 800HP and its no problem. Your huge CCA is all bullshit on a RB26.(unless you have a huge wanky stereo etc

Hello All FYI I am arranging to have my GTR photographed - and though it may be the perfect opportunity to arrange a SAUWA photoshoot. Dan Brady (AKA Dan The Man - long time forum member and contributor / moderator / all round good bloke has opened his own photography business and has kindly agreed to lend his time and services and run the shoot for us. Thought it would be awesome to have cars together and have some "series" pictures done eg: 35GTR, 34GTR, 33GTR, GTR32 together. R32 Gts4, R33 GTSt, R34Gtt, etc together. V35, V36 together. 350Z, 370Z together. Large group shot combined. You get the idea Everyone would be welcome - but cars for general photoshoot would have to be in excellent condition - cars for "series" pictures will need to be submitted for selection - ensuring we get the best cars / best outcome. The GTR shoot I will be looking for a couple immaculate 35s, 34s, 33's and 32s. That way we can swap them around and have a series of GTR pics with a few different cars. Same for others - but will depend on interest. A date a venue has not been set yet - will depend on how many people are keen/how much space we need - but probably looking at August/September - at least a few months away to so we have time to organise everything. If we get a big response - we could add some food / catering to it - meet and greet - where we want to take it is up to us. Would be great to have some awesome GTR / Skyline pics hanging in my garage - memories. Let me know if your keen - may need some help to depending on interest. Thanks for reading. Dan

Here's a tip for you from my days of research looking for a replacement battery for my 33 GTR. If you have a 33 or 34 GTR - and want a excellent battery without changing anything at a awesome price --> Platinum NS40Z CMF - Size / dimension same as standard Pit Stop Nissan GTR battery - fits in standard position in standard battery tray behind rear parcel shelf perfectly. Has smaller terminals - so no need to modify anything - and has a 420 CCA - which is higher than any of the other Maintenance free calcium batteries (highest I found was the Century at 390 CCA). The kicker - $100 from Power Crank Batteries at 340 Orrong road. They are awesome (also sell the Optima and others). For a $100 - cant go wrong and wont find better. http://www.optimabatteries.com.au/product/ns40z-cmf/ Got mine 2 weeks ago - went into the back warehouse - spoke to the guy - he was a top bloke - said shops are ripping people - $100. Tell him your from SAUWA. Hope it helps a few of you. Dan

Thanks mate I don't have any issues with the front lip. I have the car a little higher than I would visually desire - but saves me alot of headaches and somewhat protects it from bumps and scratches.

Hey Longz Apologies if its already been asked - R33 GTR C/F Bonnet (Vented style)? Thanks Dan

Welcome to the best state Car looks very nice - well done. Did you buy that here locally in Perth? Amazing how good that silver looks. Congrats Dan

Thanks. Congrats on your purchase - let the fun begin.

Thanks mate

The filter element was stuffed - and have ordered replacements. Upon inspection of the turbo - was happy to find it in excellent co ndition. No shaft play at all - all looks great!

Some randoms with crappy camera phone ..... * apologies for the flipped pics.

Removed Inlet pipe to replace filter and check turbo / clean.

I went smaller.

You don't need to wash the car - just windex / glass cleaner the window before you apply the sticker. 1st pic for me !
