Well I have only had my GT25 for oh three weeks now and while stopped at a red light a hilux failed to slow in time, swerved sightly and cleaned up my back right hand corner. The prognosis: rear right quarter is f**ked, taillight f**ked, rear bumper is ugly, that little panel that runs between the boot and guard is f**cked, the rear right hand wheel rubs up against the guard. Amazingly no glass is broken, chassis and suspension is fine, still drives and my mags are still clean. The hilux's bull bar is fine by the way... Insurance paid out and now my uncle (who is a bodyworker by trade), my father (an engineer) and I (an unskilled idiot) are spending the next week putting it all back together. Considering the insurance paid out it means I get brand new Nissan bits as well woo hoo! Pics here once I stuck it on a trailer and found my crappy camera: I was at motors getting prices on new bits, they wouldn't believe that I wasn't drifting and pranged it that is until they saw it was an auto. If you look at the left hand side it looks as immaculate as the day I bought it but the right is baaaaad. After cutting the guard off and straightening the inner guard up: Was all bent out of shape but my uncle fixed it up in a day. I owe him some beer... New quarter all sprayed and ready to go: So now I'm stuck driving around in a Pulsar while I try and get it fixed before the end of next week. Plus I need to get a structural report done before its allowed back on the road. Edited cause my photos were wrong...

As per topic. I need a second plenum so as I can begin my independant throttle body project. It will get butchered, so second hand is preferable.

As per topic. I am searching for a RB25DE plenum for my individual throttle body project. Will consider anything. I have plenty of time on my hands so if anyone has one or comes across one let me know via PM.

Hello to all members, mods and aliens. I am a Tasmanian member who has lurked around on these forums as a guest for long enough and decided I had better join. I have owned several imports and muscle cars despite being only twenty (the highlights being a Familia GTX, a LJ two door running a 308, and a track prepped BMW 635i). I am currently trying to build a XB GT four door street/drag car running a 351 to 388 stroker - if it will stop blowing seals and gaskets. Having not owned a skyline and my daily driver reaching the end of its usable life, I have bit the bullet and bought myself an R33 GT25. Yes the base model non-turbo coupe. I plan on turning it into a N/A monster (just for fun and my own enjoyment) and will be detailing the process for the other N/A guys floating about. Planned mods include individual throttle bodies, custom building a effective intake box, extractors, a carefully selected cat back system, the right N/A cams, computer, a slight compression change and a teensy bit of valve work. Other than that I'm a struggling uni student who is always keen for a beer and a cruise. Cheers - Clayton
