haha, its just been pointed out to me sedanlover that your car is my mates old 4 door

he sits next to me at work

the car looks much nicer now than when he owned it with its ugly 16" rims

good to see its finally being treated with some love and had some money spent on it!

wow, so much attention on my car! cool!

sorry, haven't checked out the forum in weeks.

ABOUT MY KIT: front bar is a very good GTR V-spec fibreglass copy. the side skirts and rear bar are some sort of veilside copy/rip off... acutually cannot wait to get rid of them. purchased the car as is, (but with shit 16" 3 spokes). my plans are to eventually fit a full m-sports kit!

the wheels you see in the pics are borrowed off a mate...going to buy them soon!

hey 12DFY... you drove past me on friday afternoon on reedy creek road. had no idea it was you (from this forum). good to see the 4doors uniting.

and yes we should organise a 4door only cruise!

Hey thats funny, I was thinking exactly the same thing. I was driving along and thinking to myself "bugger me that car looks familiar." Tis a nice sedan mate, got my attention anyhow.

Hey good to see interest in sedan only cruise. Let us know if you are interested and we will organise something!!!!!

Cool, I have two 33 sedans here in my garage so thats a good start. (Thats if missus joins in). I may even leave the baby seat in too. (go the family cars)

its funny, cause i first saw the m-sports catalog in a japanese magazine (option) and thought... i want a 4door R33 and i'm gonna put that kit on it.

and thats when it all started!

Ah yes drift barge you say, thats quite funny as since a skidpan is covered in water you are definately using the barge in the right place. Just kiddin

No i have only been at Gold coast area for four months so have not done skid pan. Let us know when its on and ill unleash my 220kw and my mechanical LSD in the appropriate manner. Been waiting for an excuse to do so.

My car started when i was 21 as a non-turbo and look what happened. So dont write it off as a barge!! + you probably use a tenth of the fuel.

heh, thats how i ended up with mine

i wanted something turbo, missus wanted something family

we all won

Not having a go at it being a family car mate, as I have family as well. 2 kids, everyone is a winner. My mates hammered me when I got it as then i was single and they were all like "get a couple blah blah blah." Perfect example they had coupes, we grew up and had families. Im the only one who still has a skyline.

Practicality and sports in one, you cant lose. You got my support as a family person!!!!

      Pillar gauges

      By MBS206 · Posted

      See, that button sounds like perfection Duncan! My eyes really don't like light shining at them from a dash when I'm driving. Being part red colourblind, I've found for most cars that I can change colours on, I set everything to red, so my eyes see the elast amount of colour! I miss normal gauges in cars

      bro, knowing the Japanese in  the 90's, i wouldn't be surprised if they shared components across their model lineup.

      Possible swap on R34 RB20DE NEO?

      By Kapr · Posted

      Maaaan so many "little" things  i rly hope my old RB20 would be "ok" and not too bad. I try to learn what and what not do i need. I look at crossmember at it looks different...even parts numbers are different. Wiring and all that i rly do not know...yeah someone mentioned the speedo thing. On that yoke clip. I rly do not know what can and cant be done "custom" so that is why iam asking to know and not be suprised 🙂  I know what it looks like

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Oh, there's also the gearbox crossmember which will probably be different between the small box and the big box, and the wiring loom will probably need to be modified, because the plugs for the switches etc, will probably be different. And I think the speedo on the small box R34s is from somwhere stupid, like the diff, possibly, so you'd need to work out what needs to be done about that (assuming it is different). I think the thing you need to realise is that the front end of that yoke is a large hollow tube with splines on the inside that mates with the splines on the box's output shaft. It is a dedicated thing - not available "aftermarket". They were made to suit that box, by the car's OEM.
