spotted a dark red/maron r33 with a drift/stealth boot lip on instead of the wing..

was driving past my work in elizabeth west. exhaust sounded pretty decent.

Sounds like my mate, got a car EXACTLY how you described. 400R front bar?

not sure mate, but i honestly thought it was gtr when it was coming towards my work, untill it got closer.

from far it looked close to black (the car) but closer it was a dark red/marone, like that metalic paint.

Also forgot to mention i saw a while 35 GTR heading south on south road, saturday night. Had S series plates. He had a white VS/VR commo go past him and give it abit, funny thing was the commo had BEHAVE on the plates.

Also Nightcrawler when are you getting your new car? My sister works with your wife so i know what your getting :(

Worst kept secret ever if it is :(

The one I was looking at is looking less and less of a goer due to issues with it - hence the reason I wasn't too keen on spruiking that I have a new car not yet in my possession. But am looking at other V35s around the place.

Who is your sister Jarrad?

^^^ Spotted Sarah today around lunchtime - car stands out a mile away!! :D

LOL thats has spotting to a whole new level. Did you sound your horn? I heard a horn but then I looked around no lines in sight.

Didn't mean to be rude. ;) I was running the mother around from place to place.

I really think I have captured the stealth look with that car :(

    • Heaps of historical info on this, a quick Google gave dates back to 2012, all talk about identification markings, dimples, shapes of mounting surfaces, washers, that are concave or something to match the fasteners mounting surface, which ARP states that if the washer, if it uses a washer in its application, isn't the right way around, it can cause premature failure,  even if it was torqued up correctly with whatever lube is meant to be used There is even talk about getting the bolts Xrayed to check the structure, one was about some builder getting multiple sets of bolts, having them Xrayed, and picking from those results Nowadays identical "looking" fake parts, in identical looking fake packaging are everywhere, with all the markings and stuff, the only way you know they are not legit is Xray or when they fail I assume if you don't want fake parts, and don't have a Xray machine handy, is to get them directly from ARP in the USofA, aftermarket rod and head bolts aren't something to take for granted  Imagine building a big dollar build only to find you lunch it because of an inferior fake fixture let go 😫

    • It's in the bloody domain name twice! Yes...the GTR boxen have, for some reason, been cheaper than the RWD boxen for a long time. 10 years ago the GTST box was available here for <AU$3k. 5 years ago the GTT box was available for ~AU$3300. Both retail through 3rd party. Now the GTT box is >4k locally and only available for less if you're willing to jump through some hoops. Apparently they can be ordered from Nissan dealers for $3-3.5k at trade pricing. A friend of mine has a new GTT box sitting on his showroom floor that I keep wanting to hit him up for but I'd somewhat rather he sold it to someone else at his asking price than to me for a mate's rates discount.
