Ah nice one! Your 33 looked nice man - shiny. :D Glad you didn't look inside my 32. It wasn't so nice and tidy in there! I'd driven it to Pick N Payless with the dash and centre console pulled apart and tools and shit all over the seats and floor. Luckily they had the bit I needed on an old Maxima. How'd you get on? Find what you needed? I love that place.

haha yeah still shiny from autosalon.

it was the first time id been out there, took a mate out to find bits for his civic but walked out with a new electric mirror motor for $20 for my car. score.

only had one 33 there and a bunch of 31's but if i had a more common car like a commodore or something then i could get stuck in that places for days.

On Great Western Today saw a silver R33 gtsT with a GTR badge on the back and shopping list on the side, :D sticker on the back saying 2die4

Hi If you're on here, can't say I'm a fan of your car but a nice front bar though

I was driving my company car, Red vrx lancer

Yeah there isn't much out there in the way of imports. That one N/A automatic R33 had been absolutely gutted! I was lucky that the bit I needed was a common Nissan part across most of their models. Even so, there was only one car there that still had it! I got a bit lucky.

I was trying to find a couple of bits for a mates EG Civic as well, but had no luck. Win some lose some I guess.

Spotted a white R34 tonight just after 5:30pm near Mascot train station. Looked nice with possibly some Starcorp Impuls on it? Hard to tell in the dark when they're spinning.

Last night spotted maroon R33 GTST with no wing and white spokie wheels on Old Windsor Road - sounded tough

30 sec later spotted white R34 GTT on Sunnyholt rd intersection

This morning spotted HERTBO along Norwest Blvd - had also seen this car a couple of weeks earlier at Unigroup

Hahaha. But he doesn't have the ricer wing anymore? :)

Saw a kinda beat up looking dark blue R33 this morning turning off Wentworth Ave (?) down near Botany. Front bar was either gone or ripped off, couldn't quite tell in my rear view mirror. Had green P plates on it.

It's ok Doof, she probably just recognized your pic from some "known sexual offenders" site :D

On another note, spotted my new car going in for it's final panel work tomorrow :) Almost done!! Having serious withdrawal symptons from not driving a skyline for 3 months...

    • I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp
    • Forgot to mention that these are the before pics when I first got it!
    • Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆
    • Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
