  1. hence they wasn't sold here.... yes.... even nissan doesn't have FAST for skylines(!) but buy parts from usa, japan, uk and australia when i need them
  2. the writing will be changed, and drifting department is just for fun, almost no-one in sweden has ever seen a japanese police car (some in the internet) but the theme is just my verion of their cars....
  3. the next (not that expensive) thing that i will do to make the "police theme" more complete. under the Tokyo Police Department Drifting department (that my car belongs to ) is there a sub-unit that goes under the name "Styling Police". They don't bother about speeding cars or cars that brakes the normal trafic rules. They only stop cars that either has a really ugly car eg. volvo 740 with a double blade F&F wing on the boot lid. also do they stop tuning/styling car owners that don't keep their cars clean, that just don't walsh their cars. the fines/tickets for these hidious crimes are 100 hours of cleaning and rebuilding of their car The Styling Police also have a budget for giving reverse tickets/fines, with that do i mean that they give a price for good styling/tuning, nice sounding car audio, shining cars and so on
  4. didn't mean that you should heat it to 150 degrees just let it be in the oven for a short period of time so the glue gets soft... the link: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...em=220199214705 don't know if the seller got any more.
  5. did buy the glass and the rear lenses from ebay australia coudn't find them anywhere else. why smash them? there are 2 easy ways of removing the standard glass. 1. put the headlights in the owen for a short time (100-150 degrees celcius) then will the glue that holds the standard glass in plase get soft and it is easy to remove (use gloves hence your hands will get burned otherwise) 2. use a heatgun/hairdryer to get the glue to get softer then just remove the glass. tools that might help you (helped me anyway) screwdriver to get between the houseing and the glass to be able to bend a knife to cut trough the "glue" then remove the old blue eg. with a knife. test fit the new glass, put on some new "glue" where the old glue was and put the new glass there. if you have to much glue you will have to put some time on cutting and trimming it away, to little your headlights will take in water when you walsh the car (but hence you have somewhat warmer climate then here in Sweden your water will turn in to gases directly ) just keep the glue warm and soft and it will be easy to remove the glass.
  6. the next thing that will be done on the car is that i tomorrow will start building the audio installation in the trunk, will keep it simple. and also sound deathen the trunk. have finally found the LED lightbar that i have been looking for a proper police car must have a lightbar
  7. yes it's part of the bodykit, but availabe from www.jdltuning.com
  8. when i get back from work (work in a different town from where i live at the moment) on wensday will the trunk get some attention. the sound installation will start with sound deathning the entire boot incl. the trunklid. the installation will be clean with the amps visable and the fuses seen behind some glass (that easily can be removed to be able to change them) the trunk will either be covered with black vinyl or grey carpet that looks like the standard covers in the trunk.
  9. it's boring to run the same car as others can run.... either small details or a makeover
  10. akeenan the "japanese text" will be replaced with the real japanese text for Tokyo Police, the grapics guy couldn't open the data file i gave him, and as usual was there "plenty" of time before i needed the car the text on the doors will be 東京 (Tokyo) 警察(Police) but with a more bold text that is on the doors right now.... NA_Goodness the suspension is HKS coilovers, and a front strutbar will be there aswell. the brakes will remain standard to start with, perhaps groove them and put on better callipers (think that is the right word) the engine will get a light tune. r33 turbo (with steel impellers not ceramic) 444 gtr injector wallbro fuelpump perhaps a remap or another box aldready have: FMIC 3" exhaustsystem 3" downpipe Oilcooler think that will do something to the performance...
  11. thanks for all the comments not that many r32 gts-t here in sweden.... the bodykit takes some time to get used to, but hence i'm not a good photograf the pictures doesn't give a true picture of the car, looks MUCH better in reality the next thing that i will buy for the car (exept getting the tires on the rear wheels so the car will have the same wheels as it is in the front) is a LED lightbar, much be able to look more like a policecar and if someone hade missed it at the shows (if possible) they won't after that the night streetraces will be fun when i arrive..... "the police is comming, lets get out of here" MOHAHAHA
  12. hence i haven't made a project thread on this forum before so did i think it was best to give you guys a summary
  13. thanks, most people has their thoughts about the rear, but that just means that they have seen the car and noticed it finally got the new headlight covers earlier this week. painted the inside of the headlight and testfitted the cover. will today do the otherone and mount this one, hopes it looks good with the white paint Here's some pictures of the graphics the Theme of the car is my version of a Japanese police car, there will also be a LED lightbar on the roof any ideas of what else i can add on the outside of the car? canards? additional grapics? bought some carbon fiber canards, don't know where they will fit (or if the even do) was at the first show this weekend. a picture of me in the hotdog line (me on the right side of the picture) some pictures of the car, it's not finnished and needs the right wheels in the back (same as in the front, but i didn't get the tires in time...) last weekend did i get a sound from the engine (metallic) turned out that it was one of the bolts for the cam gears that was "on the run" then i noticed that a spacer for the cambelt cover was stuck in the cambelt(!). those problems where fixed and i drove home and stopped several times just to be shore that the car would not keep falling apart... if that wasn't enough did the cooling liquid start to turn dark and the expantiontank started to smell of unburned petrol/oil = headgasket change (again). when i got the cylinder head back was the problem quite clear, the last guy that did the work on it made some scratches between the 5th and 6th cylinder... and cometic headgasked couldn't keep the compression inside the cylinders.... BUT we noticed that someone had done some work on the intake side so i ordered a greddy cambelt and a standard headgasket and changed it this weekend... so the car is alive... again the first testdrive ended at StreetCarsFest outside of Stockholm (Sweden) live about 20km from the show so i thought that why not drive there And now is we where i am today 2008 12th of may
  14. Some pictures of how it all looks when the door cars are retrimed. will put some sort of wire/sealer to make a nicer transfer between the grey alcantara sand the black vinyl. got the beuty out in the sun for the first time, must say that i am more then pleased of how she looks she is dirty (in many ways ) so the paint doesn't shine a it suppose to... plenty of room between the bodykit and the tarmac rearpart of the sideskirts front of the sideskirts front
  15. Some progress with the car... The subwoofer box is almost finnised, just some more fiberglass and polyester after that some fiberglassfiller. The Subwoofers will play towards the coupe, to make the sound go through the backseat will i cut up a hole there. Put in one of my Honda S2000 front seats aswell today, not mounted but to see how they would look Also bought some nice things to make shore that people wont miss the herritage of the Japanese "warior" And now are we where i am today Small update of what has happened during this weekend. Sound deathend the car so it won't sound like a bucket when the speakers kick in Also modifyed the standard brackets from the standard front Seats and welded them together with the Honda S2000 brackets and got them mounted. Turned out really good i think test fitted the new sidemirrors today They will be painted black so i get rid of the ugly ABS plastic "look" You have GOT to what your friend done on photoshop for you!: now are the sideskirts mounted, the glue is hardening so tomorrow will the front and rear bumper be mounted. Some pictures how it looks with the sideskirts mounted one of the frontfender wideners are also mounted and also the front bumper, but that one needs to be slightly adjusted to line up with the front fenders Finally managed to pay for my CLEAR LENS headlight lens did pickup some package yesterday... red led bulbs for the interior (speedo and so on) grey alcantara (same colour as light grey alcantara as the gt-r has on its rear seat. that i will use to cover the armrest and other parts in the car also alcantara shift "cover" and handbrake "cover" today did i glue and cover the doorcards (did forget to take a picture of the result, will do that tomorrow) and sort out some other things.
  16. colour code: toyota 070 that is WHITE PEARL (think it is from toyota prius) last night was the last layer of clearcoat painted on the car some pictures of the progress until the paint was painted on the car, more pictures of the painted car will come tonight when i been at the painters place. and some pictures of painted parts. something happened today. cut out the adapters for the 8" speakers that will go in the doors. it will be placed something like this A small update of what happened today. started to build one of the door cards, by the time i went home had the polyester hardened and tomorrow will i put some filler on it and also make the backside of it. Not to forget start the other door card
  17. Now is the bodykit mounted. relasied that the coilover in the left front end of the car was lower then the right front end, hence i didn't have the proper tool or time to adjust it i just changed the wheel to another that didn't scratch the bodykit. LED taillight lighted hence i forgot to connect the cable before the hoodlip testfitted time for paint seen the paint today and you will need sunglasses not to go snowblinde while i returned the trailer (or what it is called) jimmy (the painter) walshed and polished the car to get rid of al the dirt that was stuck on it, don't think i have seen the car this shiny while i owned it now is everything exept the body painted. a sneakpeak of the paint... the colour is from a toyota that is produced 2003-2007 (maybe even next year) some more pictures
  18. Thats more or less what will be done with the hk, then will the engine room be "blinged" and add small things that makes much for the look eg. siliconehoses, painted and polished things, some carbonfiber parts, hide some wirening and so on, somewhat similar what i did with my last car Honda Civic eg5 esi Before after and the car. just wait until you see the before picture of the car and not to forget my datsun 280zx (wich i still have) honda the datsun before after
  19. nismo style hoodlip that will cover the front of the hood when i cut it to make it look like a gtr bonnet Things i'm planning to buy or in carbon fiber unforenually so didn't put back the cooling fan before i took the car to my job to show it... so the car boiled and the headgasket was gone again so now is there a Cometic 3 layer steel gasket laying in the garage just waiting to be used started to lift the cylinderhead today... but got stopped when i should unscrew the headbults, my specialtool (2 sockets velded together) didn't take the Nm that was needed to get them loose... the reason that i made my own socket is that not any of the shops that i visited when the cylinderhead was mounted last time had any inverted-hexagon socket that was needed to mount the cylinderhead with the ARP bults... ordered some in right size that will come tomorrow morning. some pictures of todays work. testfitted the carbonfiber camcover and sparkplug cover (for RB26 but what the heck, is worth a try) the cover for the sparkplugs didn't really fit but the camcover fitted perfectly the rest of the enginebay at the moment finally got the right socket i needed to loosen the cylinderheadbults. so now is the cylinderhead out of the car and will be checked so it didn't get damaged when the headgasket boild/blew away tomorrow will i go to my paintguy and look at some colour samples... also bought a new steeringwheel today Some pictures of what happended today and yesterday. the new downpipe was mounted after it had been checked that it wasn't curved. The cylinderhead and headgasket (3 layered steel gasket from Cometic) was mounted and now am i mounting the other things that was disconnected. cylinderhead came out the new downpipe was mounted the cylinderhead comes in... the cylinderhead in its right place the car is alive! it started smoothly and runs as it should need to change the oil hence there is some water in it after the headgasket problem... also bought me a new sport/racing catalysator (or how it is spelled) with 3" inlet and outlet from KatalysatorTeknik 013-13 48 92 hopeing for a fast delivery so the car can get ready for MOT and then The MAKEOVER got a time for MOT the 23 November, just need that racekatalysator to make it 100% roadlegal... might lover the boost and hide the boostcontroller (instead of having right behind the steeringwheel ) after the MOT will this be installed...

  21. but it would be too sad to have a standard R32... so i bought some stuff that i during the winter will mount on the car... JDL tuning bodykit picture without the R33 gtr look grill picture with the R33 gtr look grill i will paint the black center in the rims goldmetallic or buy Ultralite Hikari rims will paint the car in white with gold "flakes" (not that 80's flakes but more metallic flaces) to make it shine in the sun will also have the graphics in gold similar to this newer skyline some of the stuff that i have bought: complete gasket set for rb20det gtr rearseat and panels white siderepeaters gtr 444cc injectors front strutbar bonus picture of the car with just the roof spoiler
  22. Here is a summary of the project so far. bought it in the summer of 2007 with a bad engine... Time for me to make a project thread here aswell the car: Nissan Skyline R32 gts-t 1993 3" exhaust hks airfilter Hks Coilovers Hks boostcontroller Blitz blow of valve removed speedlimiter 17" advan wheels bought it this summer from a fellow at Skyline.se (sweden's skyline forum) with low compression on 1 cylinder (6th). found out after taking the cylinderhead of that the pistonring on the 6th cylinder was crap and had made too deep marks in the cylinder that i had to go to overdimention and redrill the cylinder. wasn't to happy about that so i bought an engine with blown headgasket from skylineowners.com that had run for 60000 km. got the package home and replaces the whole engine after i checked that the cylinderhead wasn't damaged by the headgasket problem. pictures of the transplant engine arrives ARP headbults was fitted 1 of 2 mates that helped me (Magnus) the owner... we tried to mount the engine with the gearbox still in the car... didn't work strutbar test fitted
