Nope. It's a grey market car. Only five or so states recognize the r33 S2 as legal but the federal government doesn't recognize them at all. We can only import vehicles 25 yrs or older or you are a current resident in one of those five states. It's a long story involving an importing company by the name of Motorex. Long story short; they lied to the federal gov trying to import them. Ruined it for everyone else. This was all back in 1999-2000. Ever since then, a run into the ground r33 was averaged at $30k plus. A clean one will see much more. I got mine by being in the right place at the right time. Mine is only state legal, not federally.

In the next week I will. The car has been under the knife cutting out cancer (rust). Had a SAU member send me a back half to get it done. The rear frame rails, rear floor, and quarter panels were infected really bad. This pic is about 2-3 weeks old. I'm almost done and about to paint in a week or so. When I'm done, I'll pm a pic. I'm lousy on Photoshop.

Not sure if I can picture how to run the vinyl down the doors to make it look descent. All the cf overlays I've seen look cheap and not the part. I did see the kits to overlay real cf sheets over and resin over it. Looks great but seems a lot of trouble. In my head, buy the ready made part. I agree on over the top just for cosmetics especially when doors aren't cheap. That's what I'm debating. If I get them, will they bring the car together or overwhelm it. If the doors don't do what I want, I'm out the money and selling them cheap to recoup the money. Lol. Sounds ridiculous but it's the risk I've been debating. Wish I could get a set to "try" out. Thanks for your input!

Any probs with seals going? Did you you a portion valve to adjust front to rear?

So I'm browsing EBay like I do every other night for deals you can't pass up. Sometimes if you're lucky, you'll find them. Came across this auction. It's a 97 GTR for $89,888.00. Advertised with 1,000 HP. It's clean. Just wanted to show you guys how in demand Skylines are in the US. http://www.ebay.com/itm/331129156076?redirect=mobile

I've been going back and forth on the idea of carbon doors on my 33 and still can't make a decision. So I'm asking for opinions. The car is white. I have a Seibon cf hood and cf exhaust shield as of now. Wanting to add cf pillars and a full cf GTR wing soon. Putting doors on too much contrast? I've always wanted to build a storm trooper theme. Really don't care that much about saving weight for this project. I'm one of those guys that is absolutely addicted to carbon. I guess the it's the idea of being strong and lighter than steel. I have 18" silver BBS wheels as of now which I'm planning to replace with staggered offset black TE37 Volks. So too much on the doors? Not sure about doing a cf boot lid either. Thoughts?

Has anyone used the K-Sport front or rear brake kits? Thoughts?

Here in the states, a lot of guys like using the s-13 and throwing in the rb25. We only have s13 and s14. The s15 never saw production over here. The importing laws here are also very strict which makes any r chassis difficult to own. So availability plays a large role.

I would be doing the same thing as your tuner is. Using six butterflies can be harder to tune with compared to just one. Honestly I've built motors both ways and don't really mind either. When it all comes down to it he's just trying to simplify a complex system.

Looks like what I've found on eBay before. Take your stock bottom half and bolt it up. http://bit.ly/JTDkhf

How much negative camber are you running and wheel & tire size? You're a GTST right?

Agree. I love those donkey dicks lol. 10 times better than just a plug or just a patch. You get both. Also work up an extra set of wheels and rubber for just track. Keeps good tires good and others to burn off. It's an investment. Here's a donkey dick.

Before you drain your old coolant, be sure to throw in coolant flush which can be bought at any auto parts store. Follow the directions on the back. It'll kill any calcium build up. And if you really want to get crazy clean, take your radiator out and take it to radiator shop to have it "cooked ". That will clean every little bit of dirt and calc out of it. But since you have a new one going in, don't worry about cooking it. Once all clean and new coolant in, you could also use Royal Purples "Purple Ice" or Redlines "Water Wetter" which drops temps down a little more easier. Just my opinion though.

Check this out. Might be able to help you out. http://m.ebay.com/itm/161022260528?nav=SEARCH&sbk=1

Correction- I don't have the chassis manual like I thought I did. Just the engine manual

Pm me your email. I can send over the schem.

Yeah, apparently they are located in Spain or at least their instructional facility is. Here I am thinking automotive when you're speaking of frames for glasses! That's what I'm so fascinated about. The possibilities!

Wanted to share this. Came across it by accident. Never knew.... HGArts.com With a steady hand and a creative design, the possibilities are endless! Anyone have experience in this? Had it done? Thoughts?

WTF????

Along with advice above ^^, might of burned a few cells on your battery and/or fried the regulator in you alternator. Once you give it some gas, spins the alt faster to produce current. F*** those electrical gremlins.

Were these painted or come this way?

Did these wheels come in different colors than just white? Cuz all I find are white...

No harm no foul buddy. Didn't even come off that way. It's hard to get someone's connotation clearly thru text. Know what I mean? I feel I'm a laid back guy but if you ask my wife, I'm an asshole. Haha

Looks tits! Is that just 275 in rear or gonna try front too?

Found these. They have white lips and not those machined/polished lip like your set. Looks great. They also show paint fade or some kind of burn. Found others but I don't think I found them with that polished lip. Purchasing wheels without a car to install them on is quite ambiguous of you! Something I've done before!! Haha! Bought skyline parts for a car I that wasn't sitting in the driveway yet! Lol what did you get your set for?
