My Girlfriend has a 32 that has a lot of trouble starting on cold days. If anyone has had the same problem could you please let me know what was done to fix it. The car takes many attempts to make it fire and when it does, it splutters and farts and finally goes, revving high for a while after. I have cleaned the modules on the "J" pipe (cold start or idle motors??) to no avail. Any help appreciated.

Hey guys! Have had a guy offer me $ for my old AVS5's in there new black hue, and the hunt is on yet again for another set of rims for my 33. Found these after a quick search on Google...thanks for the info adam! It would seem that these are to suit 350z, does anyone know of these rims, or simerlar...(drifteks in 18's maybe) that will have the correct offset for the 33 GTS-T?...these are called Rota P45R's... bugger, just checked price...$900 per set of 4 happens to be in US $...it did seem too good to be true...

Adam! What are those rims called in those pics mate? They are choice! oh, and the Federal rubber is a neat touch...can you tell us what they are called and where I might hunt down a set for my 33 GTS-T?... Dont mean to steal the thread, but just saw them and had to know!

Hypers for sure mate....coming from a guy with black rims on a white car! I like the darker rim look, it sets a great contrast to the car. Cant wait to see the pics with your new rims on!

Damn! Thats a trip! I have done the same thing with exactly the same rims on my white 33. Gloss black and all....and I can vouch for the fact that it looks horn! Nice work in the back yard, I had mine done professionally because I dont have the equipment yet, but you finish looks nice too. Would love to see your rims under your car, the only downside is they catch tyre shine and dust real easy!

Looks awesome Simon! A testimate to what the correct offset and style of rim will achieve over the "bigger is better" attitude.

Definatly add some other body mods as I think the trust bar will sit lower than the rest of the car. It may take on that "snow-plough" look.

I have just picked up my rims from being painted gloss black, wanted powdercoat but the twat that blasted my rims used a coarse grade garnet and pitted my rims. The shop then used body filler to smooth off the imperfections making the rims unsuitable for powdercoating. So, two pack black it is.... The complete process cost $55 per rim, although this does depend on size and complexity of design. Oh, and Im in Mildura...a fair way from the city.

Having dramas with an R32 drivers door window not working properly. I have the glass out and all seems to work fine now,(going up and down) but it seems as tho the motor on the door doesnt know when to stop. I cant see any limit switches, how does the lil motor in the door know when to stop at the windows extremes? My motor reaches the top and bottom of its travel and doesnt shut off....any ideas??

Hey Guys, I have a prob with my girlfriends drivers side window. After lowering the window last night, the window will now not go up again. The motor still runs and lowers the window, (when raised by pulling up on the glass with the door trim off.) But it seems that the motor jams when the switch is pushed to raise. It also doesnt stop the motor when it reaches the top and bottom of its travel. If anyone has encountered this before please let me know what you did to fix it. HELP!

Nice work mate! Unique. I have the blue 5LED globes and none of mine work atm....they come on randomly but I havent had a full cluster in ages! Cobalt gauge selection tops it off. I wouldnt go changing steering wheel, I like the stock one, besides, jus as an example, here in Mildura I hear of people being done for not having an impact material on their wheels and replacing the airbag is a big no-no. Ur call tho. Do I see AVS rims under your car?? Once again, great to see individual tastes and ideas, even if they arnt everyones cup of tea!

I'd love a set of WORK Emotion CRs for my 33 GTS-t, but for the front offset looking a bit strange...I envy GTR's! To the guys after cheap alternative rims....try powdercoating/painting the ones you have....I have 17x8/17/9 AVS rims that were a decayed pearl white (on white car). They looked ok, just hard to keep clean, so, sighting an obvious fund shortage, I compromised. I want a set of gloss black Drift-teks...but my AVS's share the same measurements...so I got them painted black. I will get them back in a week or so, will post pics soon. The change of colour cost me $220! Beats the arse out of spending 10 times that amount, and at that price you can experiment with colour and enjoy, even if only for a short time, a different look!

Hey Niran, I was a victim of a rock thrower too...(it happens everywhere) I was fortunate enough...but he wasnt...to have caught the perpitrator, seconds after the rock was thrown with a piece of down-change and handbrake work that I am still proud of!! After a short wait, I recieved cash from the guy after I provided him with a quote from a local panel shop. I am lucky enough to have my car still in a standard colour (white), so not long after recieving $830 odd dollars from this piece of snot, I rang around some import wreckers and found that an empty door, emptied of all electrics, glass and trim was going to cost $110+$11 freight! Boooyya! Time to respray that chipped front bar, change rim colour and cut and polish the whole car!!! Moral of the story-->Check out wreckers for a new 2nd hand door, it will end up cheaper if you can find the same colour. ..oh, and be handy with your handbrake!

QIK-GTR and Paul, ur cars look sensational! Top marks for retaining the standard form, your attention to detail is exceptional. Ganadors should have been a factory option! QIK, use of carbon, black and choice of rims are spot on, and it looks asthough it retains a ride height that practical. Paul, great choice of rim, dished is always a winner. Top marks to both cars not having stupidly sized chromes, ludicrusly low ride heights or the full compliment of e-bay sticker kits.

Found you a 33, this looks tough...and only few mods!
