Picked it up a bit over an hour ago :kewl: it's a 1995 R33 GTS-T in Silver as sold by skylinefan (who put a lot of effort in and put up with a lot :D ) on these very forums ;) Absolutely wrapped with the car, love it.

See you at Autosalon :D

Just got back from driving around and out to a mates place. I am totally converted and very happy there is a -T on the end there :D

yeah congrats! I picked mine up last week ( R33 GTS-T ) and am also converted, they are an awesome car, and the pickup, mmmmmmm..

totally stock atm just the way I wanted to get one really. Don't like the idea of any unwanted attention just yet so the mods will start with a pretty major SQ sound system and possibly a retrim. Then onto all the road holding and go fast bits which I am still researching. A full colour change along the track somewhere there as well, something like a black with deep purple pearl.

By saying this I will probably get a scolding from the gf :wassup:

what mods does it have or are you planning?

its totally stock except for a 3" exhaust system and muffler, which gives it a wicked sound, heh. Um, mods, well, first thing will be a turbo timer followed by a decent set of wheels to replace the standard Nissan items. Oh yeah and the sound system needs an overhaul, better speakers all round for starters. I kinda like the Nissan LCD system it has for audio control so I might leave that in, for now.... The list gets longer every time i think about it :D Like everything it depends on $$$$$$$$$$

yeah, i saw heaps for sale that had lotsa mods done by previous owners, but i wanted one that (a) wouldnt attract too much attention from the local ball busters and (B) would be clean so I could do my own thing with it.

    • @Vee37 How much do you really care about finding these pads again? If your pads are quiet, work well and produce minimal dust, really isn't that enough? If you are set on finding the exact pads again, I suppose I'd do something like this -  Visit your local Jax, find out what brand of pads they carry. If the Jax workshop you previously went to had the pads on the shelf, then you can almost guarantee it will be of said brand.   I'm guessing you don't have the receipt for the previous work and pads. Can you visit a Jax workshop and see if they can look up your previous job to see what pads were fitted?  Still no luck? Put your stalker hat on, find the staff that used to work at the Jax store and ask them. Talk to local workshops, try to find out where the mechanics went to. Talk to Jax workshops, maybe they relocated to another workshop. When it comes to mechanics, its a small world. You'd be surprised how easy it is to track someone down. If these ideas don't work, shit will start getting crazy very quickly.... You could find out every brand and model of pad that fits that car... and try them individually ticking each off the list if it wasn't the one you were looking for.... If you go down this path your going to want to learn how to swap pads yourself, it is very easy, takes minimal tools and space. If you have room to park the car you have room to swap the pads. Plus you have the advantage of making sure all the brake hardware goes back in so they won't squeal! 
    • You miss spelled bearings...
    • Just putting it out there, that's a decent list. You would be better off *not* doing *any* of that and buying someone else's modded car. Like mine. Or anybody else's. Yes it's lotto dependent and all this and that but that 70K (remember, double your guesses) could go elsewhere. Keep it stock, save your money, go lowball @Dose Pipe Sutututu :p
    • Does not mean what you think it means. The continual rising coefficient is the coefficient of friction that continues to rise with increasing temperature. Not "rising during a single stop", except inasmuch as the brakes should get hotter during a single stop. The RR would not be the best choice for a streeter. Yeah....no it's not. JAX would rummage around in the "shit pads we use for all shitboxen that come in here" and install those.
    • @Kinkstaah I've got my list.. but most of them is to do if I ever win the lotto
