If you're in the right spots A, the 1st and last hour of the day are the best times for colour and texture; so in the place you were at, you've done well!

Agree with this Terry, although this spot is better in the morning opposed to the afternoon as the sun is over the ocean and you dont get the shadows from nearby buildings... but they turned out ok after all.. pretty happy with them

Looks fantastic with the bonnet mate. You'll have to update your sig pic now :P

Cheers mate, haha was going to replace it but didnt get one today that I liked that is long and skinny etc... Will do soon though I'm sure.

^^^ very nice Mate, like it with the front diffuser back on! And the plates

^ Will take some better pics when its not so sunny here in Sydney, I just polished her so its pretty hard to look at her in the sun, or take photos.

Thanks mate, wish I had the front diffuser on for the other above photo too, would have completed it.

They were just happy snaps after the detailing process but actually came out pretty good.

Cheers mate, haha was trying to get the sun on the right angle when I parked... Massive car park so was all good ha

Hey Anthony car looks Awesome! The yellow looks much better in person as well

Just curious were did you source your bonnet from and is it original?

Thanks mate, agree the yellow is different in person, and the black wheels show up much better ha.

With the bonnet, I posted a wtb add here and surprisingly within days import monster contacted me saying he had one... I was very lucky I think... And yea it's original, used to be white as there were no yellow vsii's made.

Very nice Pics ...Yellow looks mad.

Also would like to know the story on the bonnet.... dont mind having NACA duct added to my normal bonnet..if at all possible.

Cheers mate.

you can add the NACA duct to the original aluminium bonnet, Terry did this on his black GTR.. turned out really good, but i believe it was slightly easier on that one as it was black, so the tie with the duct was very easy. I considered doing this also, but i wanted to keep my bonnet original, so the cost of buying another aluminium bonnet and modifying that etc.. would have cost too much in the end for me.. I was just lucky to find an original vsii bonnet for a decent price..

there is one for sale atm on here for 3500.. looks in good condition to... but after painting would cost around the 4k mark... alot of money for it, but they are so rare so i guess they can command pretty high prices!

$3500 for the factory vs2 bonnet :O wow these things are worth more than gold these days..

Would you by any chance know what price range your looking at for modifying the original bonnet with the NACA duct ??

the NACA duct its self is cheap, around $50 or less.. then just pending were you take it to fit it and how much paint etc is needed to touch up around it and finishing etc, i would guess that $750 would be more than enough.. maybe around the $500 mark..

i dont think the NACA you buy seperate will have the exact out line of the factory one though... but that could probably be modified to be very close to it etc..

I might go the Carbon Z-tune COPY or nismo S-tune bonnet COPY, being a black car. the Carbon items looks nice on it. The prices people pay for OEM R34 items are crazy. stuff like original rear diffusers, rare M-spec seats, VSII bonnets, Nismo rear lights go for ridiculous amounts these days

    • I have a heap that i have collected if you want some authentic ones still. Pm me if your interested!
    • Hey lads, reviving an old thread.  As an update, since the last time replied to this thread, ive done mostly suspension. Havent touched the motor except for maintenance. Though upon changing spark plugs, found out i had splitfires pre-installed! Updates: - Got me some stock airbox top cover and snorkel to fit onto the original intake. Should be free of defects - Bought a set of R34 GT-T brakes (not installed yet, going to rebuild + respray in champion blue + white 'Nissan' text) - Bought the last set of bilsteins from @Sydneykid and had them installed. Has been making some sounds on the rear but hopefully should be sorted out after this New Year break. - Regreased front caster rod bushings (poly bushes..) - Rear upper camber arms - Whiteline sway bars (BNF27Z 22mm + BNR11XXZ 24mm).  The rear sway bars are a bit short (ive read 50mm else where) but was still able to get them in.  Anyhows, I reckon suspension is sorted now. Maybe replace bushes (do have a set of front upper control arms from SK not installed yet) but should be okay for now. From now, I'm wanting to start working on the motor, drivetrain etc etc. Still debating on the order to go on and what to buy etc but: - ECU ( Haltech or Link ( Link states that it dont support A/T or AWD functions... Can anyone attest to this? ) - Highflow turbo ( ATR43ss2 ) - Intercooler ( Not decided yet, but cant find many good afoordable ones. Toshi says to opt for crossflow Japanese. Bit difficult this one, unless I get a returnflow Blitz from JJ? ) - Injectors ( Any recommendations ? I do have a nismo FPR ( Thanks SK ) ) - Seats - Tune by either Toshi or DVS To be fair, I did consider just keeping the stock turbo and nistuning it. Sat in a mates stock N, that had something like 200kw, and I reckon that felt more than enough. Maybe I should just go this route ahhaha. Too many choices.... Planning a trip down south, so wanting to just clean things up and make sure it gets to and from in one piece. Anything else specifically I should do before ? Cheers lads  
    • Must be for the car’s lucky charm 🤷🏽‍♂️ She runs fine, but it just seems to take about 1L less. Maybe I’ll have the oil sump dropped at some point to check if there is anything
