1) As someone mentioned, it was the happy snap camera attached to the number plate

2) I was waiting for someone to say that.

The car came lowered (on Cusco coilovers), however the dump pipes were like 2 inches off the ground. I use the car for work purposes (when I get the opportunity) and travel through some country areas where pot holes / big deep ditches can be found.

I raised the car to get over the pits first, however after using it at its current raised height for the past few weeks I absolutely love it!! It's not crashing over anything and I don't have to drive on a 45degree angle in car parks or to get up steep driveways. I plan to paint and repair the front lip (couple joins broken), so the raised height will also come in handy in keeping that in good condition.

Sure lowered looks hot, but meh I'm over the whole looks thing. My mum says it sounds like a truck, and now I can say it looks like one too :woot:

3) The front bar is genuine GT-R, and yes you are correct its a GTR (V-Spec) as well lol. Everything exterior wise is original, except for the Nismo bonnet lip & smoked lenses.

Matty,

Cheers mate.... yeah, I must say... who cares what others think of your ride - it's your ride and you wanna ride it quite comfortably... e.g. my car, it's got original springs and height... I like it like that as it's comfortable - sure, looks a bit shit but who cares... sure of going on an agle over bumps and getting my front bar cracked all the time... not to mention feeling every twig and stone on the ground... nice put buddy...

Nice ride... I would just give it a good wax job and done... the R33 GTR is by far the hottest GTR ever...

Cheers,

    • Hi soviet_merlin, We appreciate your concern regarding this possibly being some sort of PR/Political hype, I assure you that is not the case, I wish we could claim something like that, but in this case, we merely reached out for comment on the basis of the outrage we too felt, as those heavily in the automotive industry. Ps. the original source in the social media post is CarExpert not CarExplore.    Best, CE.
    • Made a bit of a discovery, but while I was cruising, I randomly decided to test to see if it worked and it showed up on my IC7. The entire time I tested it before, I never thought to turn the ignition on. I only tested it with head lights turned on but with the ignition off. Huge oversight on my end. I’m a dummy. I know. 
    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much
