Get some up of your white R33 that we used to play with at the Motoconcepts days... I still love that car!

Yeah definitely still love that car... I wonder where it's hanging out now, or if it's still in one piece? :)

Made gobs of power in it's day... 300rwkw from a GTS-t was unheard of back then!!!

That thing never missed a beat, even with all the thrashings we gave it on the track.

Ahhhh... the memories :woot:

no the whiteline bars are NOT stiffer than the cusco ones even though they are solid and more than double the weight. the cusco ones are lighter, stiffer, better made, come with all the parts needed, and not very expensive. the whiteline ones are ill fitting, cheaply made, and don't always come with all the required bits. and they are damn heavy. simple as that. the only advantage the whiteline ones have is they are adjustable.

Interesting- i've never tested it. Where/how did you test them?

S15 ones fit fine but are very heavy. I have heard of the poor fitment, friend of mine had to send his whiteline bars back for his evo 6 as they hit the chassis and were actually warped.

I loved that car as well. So much better then your GTR :) I still remember you leaving the Cricketers Arm with a bit of gate off through the countryside. Such a nice car

A GTS-t with GTR badge and wing

:bunny:

Yeah tell me about it :banana: :banana:

They were on there when I bought the car... I could live with the wing, but not the badge, so the first thing I did was drive it home and get out the heat gun and steel wire to take off the badge.

Came off nicely, but after removing the leftover glue, I found two holes in the bootlid :(

So I put the badge back on and never got around to getting the holes welded up and repainted...

:(:rofl:

Your last GTR there.

I just found a set of those mags to go my R32. So nice and good offset...just need flaring :banana:

Nice numbers on the Gts-t as well.

Flaring guards is easy, and makes the car look TUFF :banana: Do it!

300rwkw is nothing these days, but back then, it was an eye opener! Most modified GTS-ts were around the 220rwkw mark.

Wow Andrew. Sensational. I only came across your thread today and am really liking what you've done so far. Your attention to detail really makes me feel I should've spent a little more time on some aspects of my own 32 build. Seems to make all the difference. I love what you did with the cage and attaching it to the bar under the dash. That's exactly what I should have done to get the front stays closer to the pillers but didn't click untill it was all bent and welded in.

Your thoughts on brake and suspension gear is also very close to what I have planed when required funds become available.

Again, nice work.

    • I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......  
    • I get into huffs with people when I suggest the MX5 looks so much better as a coupe than it does as convertible. Pretty sure I don't prefer the convertible version of anything. Good job on the hardtop! The next buyer will appreciate.
    • IMO wrap does have its uses, but like you said, quality wrap, and professional installation, would probably cost want a quality paint job does, but, the paint, if maintained, is basically for life, and much easier to touch up if required  In other news: it's pissing down here, with thunder, lightning and only some small hail "at this stage", luckily all "my" cars are undercover  I've also been contacted by a guy in Newcastle about the SS, he said he will come down next weekend for a look, we'll see how that transpires I guess 🫰
    • Nah, I'm not an a-hole, ha ha!   I do like the colour match. Some of the carbon fibre wraps are quite freaking horrible. There's one a local company I know uses, and it looks damn good! Also very very expensive per metre to buy! ha ha ha It might be cheaper to respray the roof than use the good CF Wrap, ha ha!
    • Please noooooooo 😭 As for wrap, no thank you mate, I've seen and used "carbon fibre" wrap before, and for these hard tops, they look soooo good when colour matched Like this >>>
