  1. ^^ Those black R33 GTR rims are looking tops Mine after a nice wash
  2. But then you got postage costs after that right?
  3. That rubber strip is not attached to the windscreen itself,so if your pulling it off don't worry about it sticking on or anything.Its been a while since ive had a look at it,but im pretty sure that strip slides into a slot which holds it on.
  4. As above,although certain paint shops have a machine they put on your paintwork to get a specific colour code.
  5. I'm confused,it's the valve stem caps (dust caps) your talking about right? If it is then yes,it is very common for them to get stolen by young thugs.I know you can get anti-theft ones of Ebay,to find them I just typed in "Nismo anti theft".
  6. I've always wondered with the wash after claybar,is it just a rinse or a proper wash with car wash liquid? And do you use claybar lubricant/detailer?
  7. Turps will get that off easy,1 minute job.If your gonna do it,wipe the turps off immediately after with water.
  8. Haha 'hoons'. Is your car wearing P1's ?
  9. I think it was on a pretty warm day if memory serves me correct.I was already judging the finish before it even had time to cure haha.
  10. Contact adhesive is the name given to the glue,and the particular brand of contact adhesive I used was 'Parfix'.Although any contact adhesive would do the job given it's strong enough.You can buy it at Bunnings etc etc.
  11. The bracket around the back inside the boot by the fuel filler flap has snapped,either that or the mechanism needs to be adjusted by the handle by the seat.
  12. I definitely agree with Hanaldo with a good buff bringing the paint up.Although,as you said,it won't get rid of the pieces of grit thats been sealed with the clear. I recently had a respray on a major panel of my car.During the spraying process,I was extremely worried as the finish wasn't coming up clear and glossy,rather it was a matte finish.After everything was nice and cured,I gave the resprayed panel a thorough buff and polish,you couldn't tell it had been resprayed from a distance as it was nice and glossy.So to a certain extent a good buff is capable of fixing imperfections. Get some pics up of the car as it sits now,just to see how bad the job is and if it seems easy enough to fix.
  13. I installed my r33 pods just the other day.Had the same problem with the top sticking out too. I just used contact adhesive on the bit sticking out and a good amount of sikaflex right around.
  14. How do you mean it won't idle? Does it stall if you don't rev it?
  15. This thread is going to be an interesting read.It's good to see something different. That thick clear hose coming from the LHS panel is actually connected to the aerial unit.I think it's something to do with water drainage as the aerial stem moves up and down.
  16. Yeah I've been looking for a carbon one a while now. My car is S2 so it's got a S2 wing on it....swapsies?
  17. The wing looks nice.If your car was stock bodykit wise,I'd say this was too big.But I reckon the wing completes the look of the rear end compared to the rest of the car as it matches the larger side skirts and vented front fenders. Keeping the carbon wing? XD
  18. ^^ Series 2 headlights don't fit series 1s Is the carbon bonnet beyond repair mate?
  19. Do you drive the car often? Has it been sitting around for a while? Because this happened to me,it turned out to be dirty sparks plugs.I let the car sit around for a while and the carbon built up around the tip affecting the spark hence the rough idle. Also,have you done a compression test on all six cylinders? Just another possible factor.
  20. Hey mate, What brand of side skirts are on it?
  21. Your in luck... http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/373155-wrecking-nissan-skyline-r33-gtst-1994/
  22. lol wtf
  23. I had a similar problem but instead of the steering being heavy some of the time,mine was always heavy. The fix was a genuine Nissan power steering pump overhaul/seal kit,I put in the new seals and she's all perfect.So maybe the seals are about to go in your pump,I'd go and by a pump seal kit if I were you.
  24. Going from pictures,I'm pretty certain that 33 4-door mirrors are just the same as 33 2-door mirrors. Youl have more luck with 2-door gtsts at wreckers as they are more common.
  25. Which specific hoses? The two coming from the reservoir?
