Those designs above look really good! The red GTS one is alot better than the previous ones in this thread.

I dunno about the black GTS though, maybe if that S was in silver..

R3Load, the initial design is to be credited to DARKBOY, its his inital drawing. ;)

But you are right its better than previous designs, i changed the "S" to look a little more "authentic" when compared to the original "R".

The "T" will hopefully satisfy those GTT owners!!

I wanted a black for the the front grill of my car and a red for the rear.

The red will highlight the tail lights and the Black will suit the no mess look front i am creating.

SIK14 what do you think , can you do this??

DARKBOY can we use this combined design?

:D

I quite like what you've done with the S actually and I understand your reasons for adding the 'serifs' to it. I merely designed the S that way because it reflects the S from the Skyline logo.

Anyway well done!

TY will do ...

Hey Ronin33 ummm this is a little off topic but where did you get your front bar put on it looks pretty good from your sig :)

Gday Chris ,

I have a couple of pics posted here if you'd like a closer look.

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...p;#entry2595685

I got it from Carmate in NSW.

http://www.carmate.com/old/

Item code: NSGTS97GTR2FB

I had it painted from a local paintshop and fitted it myself.

I mounted the indicators behind the mesh and it worked out pretty well i think.

Be aware, there are those who had bad experiances with them and those like myself who had no worries.

There is a thread around here somewhere. I tried to find it but but no good.

Have chat to the asian fella there if you go that far, the other fellas a wanker (IMO).

:P

Ok this is the story so far ...

1.It can be done.

2. The badges will be made of an aluminium backing plate and UV resistant resin cut to sise in our colours of choice (the cheapest way being if we all choose the same colours) and double sided tape.

3. I need someone who is good at drawing (or modeling) to do a detailed drawing for me to send to the company so that they can program the machines to do the work.(I'll have a go at it but I'm not the best.

4. They haven't given me a price yet but it looks as though its going to be fairly cheap because I can buy them through the business.

5. Once they are ready to be made I'll start a group buy. ;)

p.s. I'm doing this all by phone conversation and I'm having some difficulty so bear with me please ;)

sweet, loox like this is underway, ive asked ever one ive seen for a gts badge. damn fools with gtr badges, maby we should buy some and place them on fake gtr's. hehe.. cant wait to see the end result of these, ima buy a couple for backup, incase they get stolen on the car :).. hey, i think a straight silver gts badge would like awesome, only if it could be stainless steal looking i guess.. like that greenish r33 in the fast 4s mag, if you all know it, i think some one in this topic had a pic as there signature.

Count me in on a GTS Badge too!! The billet looking one from Ignition DVD is by far the best option. Then if you want to personalise it its up to you... :laugh:

      I like it when the counter chick leads you out the back into the racks and says "have a grub around in here and see if you can find what you need. I'll be back in a few minutes. Just left me in front of a massive motorised shelving system and 2-3 million fasteners, so I could find a peculiar SS shoulder bolt with cap head. Gotta love country towns.

      I used this https://osgiken.com.au/product/os-giken-os-250r-lsd-gear-oil-80w250-1-litre/   shut my nismo 1.5 pro up by heaps…. Not silent though. Gives the car character and personality. It ain’t a carolla. If you want silent, put a quaife in it.

      It's about the same time for me from Bunnings, or the Fasteners. My big push away from takeaway food, and gluten in general keeps me away from the Bunnings Snags too! Weather up here, I've been out for two walks today in the beautiful sunshine. Had a few little drizzles, and some wind, that honestly, a tin of beans and I could compete on how harsh she blows Thankfully, being this bit inland, we're not getting anything much really. Will probably pick up a bit more when/if Cyclone Alfie decides to come ashore. A few areas in the GC though, and south into NSW are really getting smashed though! Right now, I'm just annoyed Alfie hasn't hit, as I'm not allowed to crack into the BBQ foods like the bacon and eggs until the Cyclone hits "In case we lose power"...

      I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate

      R32 update from 1990's spec.

      Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
