Taken by Matt last week at the Legends dinner. :cheers:

When the sun gets so low that a pinkish hue is emitted over everything, the 'softened white' of your car draws you in doesn't it?

The timing has to be perfect!

2 minutes later and it's gone!

My newish 33 :)

HOLY CRAP! I was set to buy this exact car a couple of years ago, booked flight from Hobart to Melbourne to go and inspect it, and the guy sold it the night before I was coming over! I ended up with something almost identical anyway...

Series 1 interior yeah?

Semi-as promised: Car didn't leave the garage, but I did take a few quick snaps: This thing is quite dark in the shade but is VERY vibrant in the sun. Minus the peeling clear coat near the boot, unfortunately.

yup, those are buddyclub P1's, seen a few other 33's with those shoes on too.

not sexy deep dish things but light enough for the track, yeah the plates have got me pulled over a few times but no defects so far...knock on wood!

Lol. It is now a work in progress again. All in the name of getting more tyre.

From Viva Garage. Ive heard mixed opinions so I bought expecting to modify fairly heavily but you know what. It is actually going together quite well. Cut about 1 cm of a hidden part of fibreglass off to clear the headlight, Thats about all and its gonna fit like a glove with minimal gaps. May need a very minor trim to clear the door. But its very close.

Only question being with the rears. Do I leave it with just the lower portion widened. Or do I pack it right out and completely round off the rear quarters. My mind is halfway between both options.

It's looking very nice Luke!

For the traditional look you know the answer.

For an individual look it's the other answer.

And I don't think it would detract from the value of the car should you sell it further down the track - especially with a good choice of wheel.

As for me?

I don't mind either way.

    • Thanks for asking the question we were all thinking!
    • Does this apply if you use an aftermarket ecu as it probably doesn't have that functionality built it? (Assuming it doesn't, in my case, apexi)
    • Given you already have the engine cross member to match and likely gearbox mount to. The SR20 has a head start on the RB in this case. They handle GREAT with an SR20, lots of fun.   One I did back in the day
    • have no doubt and wanted too trust me and may regret later not necessarily worried about weight (would be 8 kg ish total) it was more the $$ to do it properly is about $6 - $7K in hardwear need long 310mm stroke jacks etc - plus install and call me whatever im not doing it myself even if wanted too cant weld etc  - thats $10K installed vs fraction of that cost while Ive spent some money on this POS I actually really dont like doing so unless its got a large chance to make me go faster 😁 hey in still carting this things around on a 15 yr old rusted open trailer so I can spend on racing not buy a new trailer to look better the manual jacks Ive had done are heavy and take space but are transportable and usable anywhere - taking or organizing even compressed air let alone nitrogen which is more whats needed coming from Perth to Winton or Sydney or the like honestly just adds to my brain headaches/ hurts of organisation also ha 15 mins job will get down to 2 - 5 min job vs 1 min job for airjacks - all tradeoffs I spose
    • Purely out of curiosity, how do you know all this @dbm7? Do you work with automatic gearboxes professionally? This goes way way way beyond "I've had an automatic Skyline once and did some mucking around"
