sorry for the bad luck, at least you are positve ie.. here comes a gtr.

my first crash and car was the same, i had an original s2 RX2 capella. some fat bird in a corolla locked it up while i was stationary at the lights, " she must have been looking in the bottom of a KFC bucket and didnt notice the lights" and smashed into my mazda. it still breaks my heart to think about it.

no offence to KFC lovers

haha, cheers for the humour guys!

I'm just hoping that her insurance will cover the agreed value with my insurer and not the market value.

Cause we all know market value on an R33 will struggle to reach 13,000.

And my loan is still at 17,000. So being 16, I don't wanna be paying off something I don't have!!

Time will tell... not lovin this stage.

aww man Rx2 so rare did you jump out and bust a wing to her head :)

i was give the rx2 at 16. took two years to get all the missing parts and do a full respray. she hit me at about 60 and i got smashe dinto a commo in front of me. how ugly a corolla and a commo attached to my mazda.. insurance can be a shit. i got market value.. this is the part that makes me cry,, i got 2000 for the accident.. tell me where i can buy an original rx2 for 2G.

i hope insurance dosnt screw you over buddy. 16 and having a R33 you pimp!

My skyline got written off too by a stupid bitch so i feel your pain buddy! She had no insurance, took just cars 4 weeks to send out the check. Was a really pleasant experience dealing with them so hopefully you'll be right.

Don't agree to the first price they give you.

You have to argue your point and don't let them get there way as it is your pride and joy.

They will give you a decent price you just have to be patient.

yep make sure you hammer them up on price, then agree what is included with the car, then strip every aftermarket thing they are not going to pay you for off it and sell it.

      App to track mods, repairs etc.

      By cardre · Posted

      Hey everyone, just wanted to let you know about an app I use to track the modifications, repairs, servicing etc I do to my R33 GTR. You might like to use it as well. I'm biased because my son just wrote and released it! But I think you might find it useful to... https://trackmymods.com

      Hey everyone, been on here for a while, but never introduced myself before. 1st import was a R32 GTS Type M, then R33 GTS, now R33 GTR - each one sold to help pay for the next one. Over the years my son has seen me modify and do changes to my imports and was one of the reasons for him to build an app for car enthusiasts like us. (He can only afford a 2007 Honda at the moment, but he'll get there!) Anyway, bit of a proud Dad moment as he's released an app that I use and you all might like to as well. https://trackmymods.com

      It will sound tragic and you wished you didn't have 1x exhaust per turbo. There's a reason why most S55 owners change to a single mid pipe.

      Echo the comments about the well preserved condition it's in. It has the aero bumper too for extra points. Nice car, and please keep it like that! 🙂

      Dual exhaust questions

      1. There are no real performance benefits. It sounds different, and as the pipes are not as large diameter you can claw back some undercar clearance or run lower (if that's your thing). 2. Twin pipes, offering exactly the same cross sectional area as a single pipe** will have higher pressure drop - so will not flow as well. That's because there is more surface area of wall per cross sectional pipe area, hence more frictional losses. ** But of course, it is almost impossible to get 2 pipes that are exactly the same XS area as a given typical single pipe. eg, 2x2" is not the same as 1x 3", although it is close. If the 2x pipes add up to less XS area than the single - it will just be flat out worse. If the 2x pipes add up to a bit more than the single, then it might come out as a wash. If the 2x pipes are substantially more XS area than the single, then it will probably flow a little better. 3. No. Why would there be? What have cats got to do with boost creep?*** ***But for f**ks' sake, please run a cat. 4. If you want.
