Hey Hey people's, As some of you all know, ive been hell busy on the 33, and i wanted to show every1 whats been happening! coz im really excited about whats been done, and whats about to happen!!! so i thawt ide share it Hahaha!!!

As some of you's can remeber, there wasnt a straight panel on my R33, and the front bar was all mashed up and falling off, and it was about 100 shades of white! and also that it had many engine problems, and the car has never ran right! well, its all changed now!!!! LOL Man im so excited! HAHAHA

Well the engine got a rebuild about 3 months ago, and the coil packs replaced, the intercoola replaced, New bov, some shiney cool pipes, and a new clutch!

As for the body, all dents were bashed out and putty'd over, while that was all happening, i ordered my new BOMEX r34 to suit r33body kit, which has just been put on, and its looks like sex now!!! Haha

And now for he really sik part! I GET PAINTED ON THURSDAY!!! Metallic black with pink flake!

Ino this sounds boring,and your proberly not interested but, i was that excited i just wanted to show everyone the change from all dented up and not running well, to how it is now :)

Here are some " in progress pictures " and some before and after pics. I pick my car up on sunday from paint, and ill take some more pictures of it with the new paint!

Hehehe, so happy with this! Hehe

Looks fantastic Kel. Cant appreciate it until you see it in the flesh. Cant wait til it gets painted, I'm SOOOOOO coming out cruising afterwards! Cant wait! Wish I had that sort of money :) Mines only a slight rebuild. Oh well.

If you need any help with anything, I'm just around the corner. I'd be willing to help

Where did you end up getting your kit fitted?

    • Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.
    • Yep that is correct. It allows you to adjust the short throw range from what I can tell
    • Car has been running great, I've put about 300km's of break in time on it. First thing that stands out with properly sealing rings is no more noticeable crankcase smell coming out of my catch can. This may seem insignificant, but the constant smell while driving around was infuriating. It's also nice to see my oil level remain stable. Two new issues have developed that I only noticed this weekend though. There's a very noticeable driveline vibration past 100kmh. I only noticed it now as I've been babying it under 100kmh in the backroads. This comes as no surprise as I'm running a one-piece shaft, and I paid zero attention to my driveshaft angle when I put everything back in. I also have a fair bit of voltage drop on hot starts. The starter audibly is forcing. No issues on cold start though. I must not have removed all the paint under my main block ground during assembly. I'll try and take care of both those issues this week once the kids are asleep.  I also received all the parts I was missing for my direct port setup. I will hopefully have pictures of that up soon. I'm hoping to get back on the dyno the week of June 30th as I'll be on vacation. I'm confident I should be able to make north of 500rwkw on pump gas and WMI. I'll go back again later this summer with E98, but I want to confirm my ethanol content sensor is working properly first. I've never seen it read anything but 11%. This makes sense for our 10% ethanol content pump gas here, but I would expect the occasional movement between fill ups. 
    • 75% complete. Will now need to get a new axle with 5x114.3 hubs and then figure out how to customize some mudguards for it once the wheels are on.
    • Trailer prep is underway... Lined up the wheel to get a rough indication of how it would sit Then removed all the bits (as far as possible) and gave the frame a light sand and quick lick of paint   Then added some carpet
