Billy-ONDBAL Posted March 31, 2015 Author Share Posted March 31, 2015 Well i really wasn't going to bother replying to this thread after all the hate i got from everyone. I didn't see the point wether people liked it anymore or not, but i really wouldnt mind giving people that " I didnt expect that " feeling. So here are the photos in order : When i got my licence..I started drifting too much on the 20"s i snapped 3 studs on the rear so i came to accept that those wheels are too heavy, had to put stockies on.Got sick of it, as fun as it was i had to move on.. So i searched for something different and got these. Axis Hiros 19 x 10.5" Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/443169-dream-r33gts-project-for-my-red-ps/page/2/#findComment-7506799 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy-ONDBAL Posted March 31, 2015 Author Share Posted March 31, 2015 The moment i bought them brand new and seen a completely different look on my car i fell inlove.Wanted to throw out the colours abit more so i got walls done, Loved the look but regreted it after it started getting me pulled over and defected one too many times, because the walls were throwing out the stretched tyres abit too much.Getting rid of the turbo front bar was a must, and had to get some street worthy wheels which didnt let the car down because stock wheels wasn't cutting it.Bought a new custom front bar and a series 2 grill got them painted and fitted and was so shocked with the finished product,And now people dont hesitate to take a photo of it.Many things still to go like GTR Wing, possibly double blade. WIll get the Axis Hiro's back on, camber the rears to get more low. like below. ( EDITED PHOTO)(EDITED PHOTO)Hopefully would sit something like that when im done.-Billy 1 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/443169-dream-r33gts-project-for-my-red-ps/page/2/#findComment-7506816 Share on other sites More sharing options...

AngryRB Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 (edited) Looks good mate, shame about the popo, I think either front end looks good, personally I don't like the big wheels cause you feel every bump in the road, the 19's looked pretty good though, my bro has same colour and has an awesome rear bumper I think yours would really come alive with , i'll try to find a pic of and send you, im gonna get same rear when can afford it... look up " Do-luck Kit For A R33 Gtr - Cosmetic, Styling & Resproay - SA by member F u r i o u s theres a silver GTR with great looking rear Edited March 31, 2015 by AngryRB Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/443169-dream-r33gts-project-for-my-red-ps/page/2/#findComment-7506974 Share on other sites More sharing options...
PranK Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 I love the Hiro's on it. Suits it well. I also love the lip spoiler over the GTR wing. Less is more.

Billy-ONDBAL Posted April 1, 2015 Author Share Posted April 1, 2015 Hey guys, Great to see some positive feedback. Must've done something right! Hahah @MathewZ Thanks man. Im keeping that bar for when i get my fulls and make it turbo, or keep it for track days if that does happen one day.@AngryRB Haha big coincidence man i was actually looking into getting Do-Luck Side skirts and Do-Luck Rear bar and wrap its diffuser in carbon would look nice in my opinion. Glad you say that gives me a +1 for that idea. I've got a photo of a silver gtr with that actually looks tough! Will search up that thread and yeah i agree i got paranoid too many times that my rim was going to snap off because of all the bumps i could feel. Got really sick of it. Thanks for your feedback.@PranK Thanks, They'll be back on soon! still sitting pretty. Yeah the wing is a very hard decision..Looks like shes crying for the do-luck kit from this angle...andddd this angle..Will keep everyone updated -Billy Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/443169-dream-r33gts-project-for-my-red-ps/page/2/#findComment-7507711 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy-ONDBAL Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 Another Update on the 33:Thanks @Polishn i bought the bootlip with the car as shown in the progression pics. I've bought a 400R Nismo GTR Double blade spoiler so i'll most likely be selling the lip off if your interested!So heres the photos and progress so far -400r Nismo GTR Double blade spoiler on its way from Hong Kong, Should be here soon Package arrived this morning, Do-Luck Bodykit Put it beside the car, Couldn't wait till its painted so had to have a peek of a test fitting.I'll let everyone know on the ending result.

PranK Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Wow thats a big kit! Ha! Does the Do Luck kit not have a front bar? Or, you wanna stick with the 400R?

Billy-ONDBAL Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 Personally i'd stick to this 400r bar @PranK because its a bit of a different style to the normal 400r front bars. I only realised that after i bought it but loved it anyways. If i do change the front bar in the future Id try a modified to fit genuine GTR front bar. 1 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/443169-dream-r33gts-project-for-my-red-ps/page/2/#findComment-7524126 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy-ONDBAL Posted June 5, 2015 Author Share Posted June 5, 2015 Well to start and finish my final Post... I've finished the 33 a few weeks ago, and have been loving it! I haven't ever been getting this much feedback.. especially positive feedback.Finally acheived where i wanted to be, but through all that i learnt alot.. About the scene, especially the people in it.. whos a "car enthusiast" and who really loves cars, 2 completely different things..I dont want to turn this into a rant so heres the progress photos.Slapped the Axis Hiros back on, wheel alignment and drop Sent the r33 back in to get the 400r spoiler painted & fitted. All leds on the gtr spoiler worked too, that was a big plus. It was a very cold night so the fresh paint wasnt settling very well with all the mist on it.Front shot from the same night it got painted & picked up.Few days later after the paint settled.This will be my last post, this community isn't cutting it for me. Great Admins tho, never seen Admins like here. so credits to them. But yeah your Right MathewZ, i think its just to tacky now.. :whistling: Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/443169-dream-r33gts-project-for-my-red-ps/page/2/#findComment-7545579 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hertz Donut Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Fair enough, I don't think anyone's ever built a car that has been universally loved, so you're better off building it for the person to whom it matters most: yourself. Good luck. 1 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/443169-dream-r33gts-project-for-my-red-ps/page/2/#findComment-7545682 Share on other sites More sharing options...
