Thought i'd also mention that the K2 Motor grille is basically a perfect fit, everything lined up no problem at all. Longest part of the swap was unscrewing those f*cking clips!

Ahhh should be good when you put the rims on, make sure you take pics and post it up when everything is done i gotta see this :D

Wow dude that's the next thing i was going to do is paint my original grill gloss black with a red Nissan badge, but damm that grill looks sweet as how much did u pick that up for?

Not to worry, i am a picture whore.. Every time something new happens i have the camera out straight away haha.. But i am really liking the camera in the iPhone 5 heaps good quality.

Here it is- http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/380474727964?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649

Pretty cheap, i'm happy with the look too. Only thing that is slightly annoying me is that the grille is really gloss black, shiny, in comparison to the mesh in the front bar it doesn't exactly match the darkness if you know what i mean. Tempted to paint the mesh in the bumper gloss black but it's too much f*cking around.

Lol yeh i'm like that as well it's good taking a lot of photo's for the growing progress of how it ends up being at the end. Yeh the iphone does take good photo's man looks great.

Yeh i know what u mean by the difference between the grille and the mesh but you don't really notice it much unless your close up which is good.

Exactly right, i still have pics saved of when the previous owner sent some to me. Hasn't changed a great deal i have fixed up some things he had done and installed a few things but the next month - 2 months the car is going to look much different. Very keen!

Any plans for your own V Rob?

Yeh it's getting up there ay, taking time to build a car up is always more better at least you get to do some research of it and knowing what u want.

Yeh dude i'm looking at buying a high flow cat, Headers and a Motordyne plenum spacer next, I have just been doing some research on what sounds better and performance wise, Once i get all that put on i am going to do a mapless tune and dyno and see how much kw i get at the rear.

Sounds like you have it all sorted man, i personally am going to save the extra coin and go all out on MD tdx v2 + ART pipes.

In case you didn't know - as far as I am aware, properly fitting headers is an engine out exercise.

Yeh MD is the way to go, I have had a look on youtube with people that have the MD kit just sounds fantastic

Yup that's still stock suspension. I have plans to go low. Something OEM like 350Z or Nismo.

Thanks for the likes.

I've got Eibach pro kits waiting to go on 1.1'' drop all round which will be perfect for me as a daily drive. S-Techs i think go lower to a 1.5'' drop roughly same price. I am investing in coils soon though.

Yeah I don't want anything to low. A nice 1-2inch drop is just nice. How much are the Eibach or S-Techs priced at?

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
