I've been so busy lately, but I've finally done my gear boot surround :thumbsup:

After I finished that, got a little bored and decided to redo my climate control, so the red and blue bits are visible.

Here's my gear boot surround and my new and improved climate control:

Gear boot looks effin great though! Cant wait!

Do you mean the blue and red bit on the climate control?

Well I've spent long enough with it, to have taken out the blue and red bits, then tucked the vinyl into the holes and shoved the bits back in lol, so it should stay :thumbsup:

I tip my hat to you charles, you do a good job

He's already done the 3-gauge holder!

I have, but it's not perfect enough for me to do it for other people :P

I keep practising on mine until I can get it perfect, then post some pics up :)

I've porobably wrapped each piece of my interior 2-3 times already lol

Great job Charles!

Nice and neat.

By this stage I expect to see your whole car wrapped in Carbon Fibre wrap. :(

lol don't be surprised if you rock up to a meet one day and my whole car is CF, this shit is addictive :P

Once I finish a piece, I just crave for another and start to shake if I don't hahah

I'm so glad you redid it to display the red/blue bits - it was really bugging me and something I was gonna make sure I did.

Did you end up snapping the red/blue bits out and then re-gluing them back in after wrapping and cutting, or just cutting around the edges with a shaft craft knife?

I am really interested in doing my R33's interior in CF aswell, :) and the mirrors.. and the door pillars.. sounds like it would look tough as :) haha, just needa get some money :(

Maybe I'll start a group wrap going? :banana:

$30 per pair of B pillars! Anyone interested? :)

I had to snap the plastic bits that holds it together at the back, but the thing is, I didn't need to glue to back on, as I've said, I folded the vinyl into the holes where the blue and red bits goes, so by forcing them back in, it's a nice tight fit, but just to be safe, I just stuck a off cut piece of CF to hold it there :)

hell yeh get a group wrap going :) haha, would be awesome, for me to ship my parts to you and back would cost a mint :banana: haha =] ill give you a bell once i got my major service and suspension done :( then we can have a nice old chat c( =

Well if you can get 4 other friends of yours to send down all your B pillars, then I'll do them for $30 per pair for yous :)

By then, postage might only be $2-3 each :)

Yea, it shouldn't be a problem. If you want, PM me what you want done and I can give you a quote :)

hehe, you think if i sent you the money and all my parts i want done youll do them? could be a big box :( haha love the look of this stuff

    • Hi, does anyone know how I can, or can a moderator remove this advertisement please.  Has been sold a long time ago and would like to remove references. Thanks. 
    • There are adaptors that allow you to delete the booster and use an s15 clutch master cylinder.    if you want to keep the booster they are still available brand new 
    • I visited again today: It would appear they have painted the main body of the car and some parts of some of the panels, so I can say that I now have BMW parts in my car, much to the envy of @Dose Pipe Sutututu It is still covered in dust which is quite the tease but I did look at a few circumspect spots that will be behind bumpers and such and wiped some dust away: After my repeated begging to PLEASE DONT PAINT OVER THE ENGINEERING CERTIFICATE (you have to re-engineer the entire car if they do) I see THIS: Which is great. Excellent job tbh at least to me. A better non dusty example would be the backs of the doors that have been painted: Giving a reasonable contrast between old and new (I know the old isn't clear coated on the inside of doors). The door card will well and truly cover where the old paint is, you can see in the second pic some of the black butyl/whatever shit is sticking the plastic sheet behind the door transfer that has happened since it's clearly been stuck back on. The most maddening thing about this colour is every time I saw it in the wild it looks like another colour, same with photos of many cars with the same colour looking wildly different in every photo anybody ever takes and this is no exception. But stand a little further back and it suddenly looks dark AF. I did tell them when I was discussing which of the 70 million charcoal colours to choose from (a porsche one, a BMW one, or a R32 GTR one etc) that if they just ignored me and chose one at random I would probably never notice. Maybe they did. But the colour is supposed to be B39 (BMW Mineral Gray). Boring I know, but the R34 sedan (to me) really shows off it's boat-ness when you paint it in a bright colour like bayside blue or white or whatever else. I do have a fondness for AR2 Nissan Red, but decided against that because it'll have pretty odd contrast to random bits unpainted (like engine bay, bits of trim etc, and maybe it'll fade). And people will always fkin comment on AR2. Everything remains super dusty. I have tracking numbers for the new heads, as well as some Improved Racing goodies, but they probably will be a next year thing by the time they end up on the car. I did some maths on the heads and I know why nobody goes to this extent in Australia, because it's really not worth it, given I could have just CNC'ed my current heads, bought a FAST102/TB and used my current rocker/spring/cam combination and get a 383 stroker (or stroked a 6.0 GenIV bottom end to 6.6L) built for the same price of just the setup in the mail/on the floor here. Or I could have bought a LS3 and a Drysump system. And then have a complete engine to sell. Oh well
    • We just disconnected the vacuum line if I remember correctly, booster is still there. Is there a rebuild solution for the booster or a different adapter that will work for GTR chassis?
    • Yeah 4wd (boosted) has a recess in the firewall for the booster, and 2wd is flat - the example in the link shows the flat surface. When you deleted the booster, did you just attach the factory slave cylinder directly to the recess in the firewall with no adaption?
