hey guys. heres the story

i have a series 1.5 White r33 m spec. already have the shopping list stickers on the front of the doors as u can see in the photos. but im planning on slamming my car on its ass, painting the boot and the bonnet black. and removing the rear wing.

I want to organise a huge door length sticker from the begining of the door near the other stickers right up to the end of the car or anything close to that. maybe something like a apexi decal or even a performance sticker as i am planning on engine work. but if i was to go out and buy a sticker. where can i find them? is there a website and does anyone have any ideas. prefferably red white grey and black mixed colours in the sticker is what im looking for, but anything goes as long as it looks good. heres a pic of my car as it is. and i will update pics as i spray the boot and bonnet. and remove the wing and atm its getting the coilovers adjusted. cheers would really like some help

heres some chaddy pics i made up on paint. shit effort but heres the idea :)

i think an ignition sticker sideways along the car would look good but is it hard to get my hands on one?? any other ideas would be welcome cheers

Mate I like the mean jap look you're talking about, hence why my car is dropped and failry stock looking with driftek rims. I'm not too crazy about putting a big decal on a car though, I like the shopping list on the doors but if I was too ever put a graphic design on the car itself I would probably pay a fortune to have it airbrushed. Still if you like the look if it then that's what matters in the end, don't be bullied by peoples opinions of your car. Here's a pic to help you decide

Good luck with it and give Taran a Pm, he can point you in the right direction.

hey zilch. uve seen my car b4. i dont know if u remember. but about october last year we exchanged high beams and thumbs up on pittwater rd. u remember?? by looking at ur car im pretty sure it was u >_<

as for the sticker on the side. i get what ur saying. a huge sticker on the side will either make the car look 10 times better or 10 times worse. hopefully a nice sized apexi sticker with the emblem is what i might be lookin at. thats AFTER i crack a late 12 sec pass hopefully :wave: (with a pfc ofcourse :wave: no high hoper here)

and yeah, give Taran a PM, he'll help you out :)

When doing car graphics vinyls are the best, airbrushing might be the ultimate but when you want to be able to change the graphics and see what it looks like with spending up big time, you can't beat vinyl....

Why don't you see if I can come up with a custom vinyl design that you would like.

And I can alway incorporate a tuner logo into a design.

black bonnet looks good on the cars with a nice set of dishies but ive gotta say shopping lists along with other decals have got to be the ultimate wank mod. i mean if u want to be fully sik bro then by all means go for it but god theres gotta be better ways to spend ur money. if u must get one of those greddy stickers and have it going diagonal down the side of ur car *shudders*

thanks boys... dont be shy for comments whether it would look good or not or any ideas... im just chasing that mean jap look (black bonnet black boot white deep dish wheels :)

cheers

for a mean jap look, you don't slam the car on its ass, that's australian/american, japs have it lowered to a sensible height.

Carbon fibre bonnets look jap and painted OEM look ghetto american.

Fix up that front bar, chopped front bar are lebbo style (i apologise if that term is incorrect)not jap style, they buy yourself a nice front diffuser.

For a true jap look, get a nice looking gt wing or if you are going wingless, go for the drift wing rather than leaving a gap where the orginal wing is suppsoed to be.

This is just my interpretation of a True Jap Look.

funny enough. the guy i bought the car off wasnt leb, he mustve cut the front bar out. personally yes i wouldnt of done it, and i am trying to find a front bar atm. but im not phsyked about it, and for slamming the car, i wont be ridicoulous enough to have my exhaust scraping like in most cases :rofl:, and for stickers yes they can look like wanker- mobiles but if u get the right combination happeining they can look awesome, whatever u guys think dont think im gna go for the stripey tribal look or anything, im looking for a more performance side sticker, cheers guys will keep u updated with pics

ive so far lowered the rear end... and kept the front a touch high... so the wheels dont rub against the guards when i turn.. it sits beautiful not to low and still looks mean, we have removed the rear wing but havnt painted the boot or bonnet black yet.. so far without any huge sticker it looks very good as it is.... trying to get photos organised to prove how good this can really look. we have also put a dummy sticker on the side just to see if it does work out.. 1/2 the workshop said noooo dont dont blah blah and the other half said go for it... although this sticker isnt what im after (just a logo of the performance shop im at BTA MOTORSPORT) it does look great and everyone in the workshop did agree it does look alot meaner than b4.. the sticker was big enough to cover most of the door and abit behind the door too... if i can organise some pics just to show u guys what im after.... trust me im one person who wont want my car looking like 1 of those plastic fantastic looking excels with dirty fake looking ugly stickers.... they gotta work with the car and if they dont then there not going on.

      R32 GTR clutch master cylinder adapters

      By weikleenget · Posted

      I replaced the whole clutch line with the chase bays braided hose, I think it removes that loop, is it the short hose that comes immediately off the slave or is there a drawing in the manual to find what you’re referring to? It was just re-bled when I upgraded to the nismo slave, old slave worked fine but I thought that might help, didn’t change a thing. It’s like the first half of the pedal is pushing air and then when it finally actuates the master the friction zone is tiny. Makes it practically impossible to launch the car

      Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.

      I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it

      If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣

      I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.
