You laugh now, but when I'm at a formal occasion with a shitty DJ and they need someone to drop Dre beats...I have something up my sleeve.

Yeah Alvin, bought Bel's old car. For me, bronze is a little bit hit and miss on silver. Took a pic in japan of a white 33R with bronze xd9 and looked epic though!

I kept trying to convince Brandon to sell me his LM GT4s but I think that'll never happen lol

Gunmetal XD9s do look nice on silver as well actually, there was a pic of one at Sandown on my

comp but the angle of the pic didnt display the wheels very well. I'll have a tinker on PS again to see what it'll look like.

Was originally quite firm on either TE37SL resprayed black or black LM GT4. But now the more I look at it, seems like

33Rs look better with some dish which both of these wheels tend not to have much of..

Yeah for the Te37 range of wheels need 19's to get the dish

White Work XD9 on silver 33GTR work well? Had a little fiddle around on PS before cos I couldn't find any other silver 33 gtr with white xd9's.

My car looks 95% similar to this car. Excuse the front lip as I don't know how to use photoshop.

Oh cheers for the comparison pic, see the bronze actually looks pretty good there :)

What kind of silver is it? If it's later model KR4, go bronze. If it's light-ish silver go dark gunmetal.

Panasports ftw

I want it back :( hell, I want a GTR again.

Agreed on TE37's being played out, although haven't seen people jumping on TTA edition (Tokyo Time Attack) could it be a sign that TE's aren't fashionable anymore?

So what's the update on the car and your plans?

I considered buying the car when it was up for sale

Bought -9s, mines front pipe, 3" test pipe, tomei ti catback, nismo twin plate and greddy profec b spec 2.

Still yet to buy pfc but its just a matter of time. The car came with Racepace cam gears so I'll

put them onto the new engine, which should arrive from Japan in about a months time.

Suspension, brakes, diffs etc will be attended to once money starts flowing again.

The car is actually a very nice example, went to see a lot of 33s before buying this one.

The others were all very tired and this one seemed to be the most genuine.

Happy Friday everyone, any plans for the weekend?

I'm going to be replacing my Intake Manifold Gasket on Saturday... going to be so much fun :|

And Sunday going to be finishing off my frankenstein rear end with the freshly rebuilt R230 1.5way and GTR Drive Shafts... but still with GTST rear hubs... (hubs are a little smaller than the gtr ones, so going to have to join the gtst splines to the gtr shafts at the CV Joint, urgh)

      R32GTR R200 reverting from Nismo centre to stock

      I used this https://osgiken.com.au/product/os-giken-os-250r-lsd-gear-oil-80w250-1-litre/   shut my nismo 1.5 pro up by heaps…. Not silent though. Gives the car character and personality. It ain’t a carolla. If you want silent, put a quaife in it.

      It's about the same time for me from Bunnings, or the Fasteners. My big push away from takeaway food, and gluten in general keeps me away from the Bunnings Snags too! Weather up here, I've been out for two walks today in the beautiful sunshine. Had a few little drizzles, and some wind, that honestly, a tin of beans and I could compete on how harsh she blows Thankfully, being this bit inland, we're not getting anything much really. Will probably pick up a bit more when/if Cyclone Alfie decides to come ashore. A few areas in the GC though, and south into NSW are really getting smashed though! Right now, I'm just annoyed Alfie hasn't hit, as I'm not allowed to crack into the BBQ foods like the bacon and eggs until the Cyclone hits "In case we lose power"...

      I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate

      R32 update from 1990's spec.

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.

      Has anyone put in brand new full carpet? (not floor mats)

      By PotatoCake · Posted

      Doing a refresh of my 33 and can see a few websites stating they sell the entire main carpet for our cars, but they all have generic photos which is fine, i understand they are custom made to order.  Just seeing if anyone has got it done or had any experience with this, as i would only want to do it if the fit and finish was as good as oem https://carmatsdirect.com.au/products/moulded-carpet-or-vinyl-for-nissan-skyline-r33-1993-1998-coupe https://knoxautocarpets.com.au/moulded-carpets/nissan/skyline/skyline-r-33-1993-1998/
