  1. So I drove around like this for a while and then wanted to do the next step engine wise to the car So after a while of searching and reading up on Front Mount Intercooler's I had decided I would rather not cut up into the engine bay yet and so I opted to get a Return-Flow Style Intercooler. So I hopped onto JustJap.com and bought a brand new Blitz Return-Flow FMIC and got it installed. Btw, yes I know the intercooler looks wonky, it annoyed me and so I have fixed it haha
  2. After this I bought a new sticker and after being annoyed at that sticker on the rear of the car (The one that says "GTS25T") Being faded and looking shit I decided to see if there were any replacements out there. By chance I managed to find this and bought it straight away! Lucky too, it was the last one. Definitely looks good and goes with the colour of the car IMO, I've been told it's a four door badge, but I still don't know haha.
  3. After getting my new exhaust, I went back to the interior and decided to get a double din as I wanted something a bit nicer with GPS functionality etc. So I bought a Clarion NX302A and some clarion speakers for the rear (Still am yet to replace fronts, but will be doing this soon). 2 years later and it's still working great! Ps, Lucky for my a sub and amp came with the car when I bought it, so score! PPs, the other photo was install day (Excuse the try hard pose & wheels haha).
  4. Next on the list I wanted to hear a nice note coming from my car, so I took the car to "Carline Mufflers" and brought a brand new X-Force 3" Turbo-Back Exhaust System. So out the stock exhaust came and in went my shiny new exhaust! I didn't take any immediate photo's, but here's one. (You should all know what an exhaust looks like anyways )
  5. So after having this car for a couple of months I started to see other modified Skyline's and just got bit by the mod bug! So I got to work on getting idea's on which way I wanted to go with my car. When I was younger I had always wanted a Skyline painted green with some nice gold dished rims, however I realized that was just a fully hektik ricer phase and I wanted to make a really clean example of an R33 as a lot of people do ruin them these days. So after some thinking I decided to go with a Red and Black scheme! I decided to change the steering wheel first, so $240 later I had a genuine Momo steering wheel which was a nice shade of black and red. This is when I got my first taste of being annoyed with my car, as we all do at some point! As this steering wheel didn't turn out to be as easy as I thought, the steering wheel was fine, however the boss kit was not. I made my way to my local Super Cheap and bought a boss kit. After installing it I could not move the wheel very easy as it was super stiff and felt like it wasn't a correct fit.. So I went back to the store and they assured me this was for my car, but it still didn't work. So I ended up getting my money back and buying a HKB Boss Kit from Japan and hooray! It worked, I finally had everything back to normal + a nice new wheel! So I decided to update the interior a bit more! I also bought a Momo shift knob and red and black leathers for the hand brake and gear knob surround. Unfortunately I was and still to this day am unable to find a Momo handbrake handle in red and black to complete the set (The red dash was done after, but this is the only photo I can find that shows the interior)
  6. Hey guys, My name is Josh and after being a member of this awesome page for a while and seeing everyone else's builds, I decided I'd muster up the effort to post up my build this far! I hope you all enjoy it as much as I am building it! So in May of 2012, after passing my second phase L's I bought this beauty for 8k. It was completely stock apart from a Pod Filter, which is just the way I wanted it as I never saw a point in starting off with someone else's work, I had to make it my own from the beginning! (Unfortunately these are the only photo's I have of when I first bought it).
  7. Hey Guys, just Just after some advice. In the next couple of weeks I am looking to swap my Series 1 spoiler for a Series 2 spoiler as I personally like the S2 spoiler over the S1 spoiler. I was just wondering if the spoiler would align with the existing holes and go straight in or would there be more work involved? If so would it be cheaper to just buy the whole boot w Series 2 spoiler attached? Cheers for any input
  8. Ok thanks guys:) btw MatthewT85 It's a blitz return flow, so shouldnt have to cut an holes in the drives side
  9. Hey everyone, I have just recieved my long awaited Blitz FMIC:D i'm looking to install it myself to my R33 GTST Series one and was just wondering if it was an easy job? ie no cutting and such, if there is a thread on here on how to do it maybe you could link me to it Thanks

  11. Hey guys, I'm currently doing the interior of my R33 Series one. I've gone for black and red and all I need now is floor mats. I can't seem to find them ok ebay, does anyone know where i can get red floor mats with a black trim or something similar? Thanks:)
  12. Oh that must've sucked! sounds like you did a good job tho:) yeah i will do research before hand. Not particularly keen on blowing up my car otheriwse ill be stuffed haha. im putting a fmic on next:)
  13. Ahhh i see. thanks so much for your help man:) yeah this is my first car, i bought it stock so i could do it up. slowly doing bit by bit, I'll get there some day haha.
  14. that's good then:) cheers for the help man. just a quick question why is the +7 there if it does't reach it?
  15. Ok, cheers man. btw that picture isn't of my actual dash and nah man i don't have a boost controller, the car is all stock apart from the exhaust.
  16. Ok so i don't know how to explain this properly, but I've had my car for over a year(R33 GTS-T.) Just recently i've put an aftermarket exhaust on. lately I've been noticing a problem, or i think it is anyways. when i accelerate the turbo gauge wont go any higher than the line before the +7 and it feels like something is stopping it from going further. is it because I've installed a new exhaust so i need a tune up? any help would be great! I've got a picture of the turbo gauge to make this explanation abit easier to understand haha. Thanks:)
  17. It's a just a streeter, it's stock turbo. Only thing I've done to it is put an aftermarket exhaust on
