  1. Hakosuka22 ive heard from alot of people that put the ti extreme on if its driven alot on a daily they remove it pretty quickly as it brings way too much of the wrong attention and is very loud. Cant talk from my personal opinion though.
  2. Hey look. as i guessed. it has a completely custom front end haha
  3. Go Hard Or Go Home. on another note have you even thought about where all the intercooler pipe work is going to go? like will it even fit behind the bumper or are you going to have to customize the radiator area /front structure of the car to make it work? wouldnt mind knowing your plans for all this. and TBH i think the Twin Throttle bodies are the least of your worries. as said above your going haltech and there capable for fly by wire systems...
  4. This thread so much negativity. saying why do it why this why that. whats the point. reminds me of a inspirational speach i heard once. "Dont Listen To The Naysayers" "How many times have you heard that you cant do this, and you cant do that, and its never been done before." "I love it when someone says it has never been done before" "That means when i do it, it means that im the first person to have done it" "So pay no attention to the people that say it cant be done" So i say Keep it up.
  5. you can see in the picture looks like the hydrofilm goes in about 1 inch inch and a half maybe.
  6. haha nice hydrographic iw as thinking about doing my RB26 covers in carbone. hydro dipped. but doing someth8ing nicer What Cas setup are you using? BTW you should get the S3 front lip for your GTR bar.
  7. So on Wednesday i got home from work and had the Fuel pump sitting on the kitchen table. Couldnt resist and installed it Thursday night after work. prior to this on the Monday i removed all my Cold side pipe work. gave them all to take to my uncles work were he Sandblasted them for me. This was them after sandblasting all ready to prime up. Just after the first coat of Primer. I did 1 more coat and let it dry for 1 hour. This is after the First coat of Paint. Three Photos below show the Before. After shots of the pipes. very happy with the result. Also will be painting the Intake Plenum the same color and the Cam Covers will be a surprise very excited though. they wont be coming off For a while though. Very slow process
  8. very cool...... topic can be deleted now. thanks everyone who helped.
  9. Been very slow. no action with teh car as of yet except purchasing a new fuel pump. coming from Aftermarket Industries. getting the 460LPH walbro fuel pump. OEM pump finally shat itself. been starting the car once a week for a good 10 minutes. letting it warm up ect. until 2 weeks ago when the fuel pump died. To Be Continued
  10. Found out its a common thing for people trying to get the most out of them when selling/ also happens at the auctions/docks in japan. and if you got it for the price i did for the condition the body is in. and the engine leak down test/compression test results and also gear box after i fixed the clutch adjustment. you wouldnt care what brakes where on it. when im going to upgrade them anyways. i was just curious.
  11. Hey guys quick question stupid me. for some reason my R33 gtr seems to not have the "Standard Brembo factory" brakes. mine have nissan ones. were brembos factory all round. also my R33 was registered as a 1997 R33 gtr. 97 should be around when S3 where made. But mine is clearly a S2 i knew this upon purchase but just seems odd that a 97 mine is a S2 not a S3 unless it was made just at the start of 1997 before S3 came along. can anyone confirm the exact date/time they started S3 production? Could mine of been a in the middle of S2 and S3. VIN: 6U900BCNR33042576 Vehicle: NISSAN GTR 1997, SILVER OR CHROME Type: CAR/SEDAN, CAR / SMALL PASSENGER VEHICLE Registration: VIC, [no rego plate data] expires [no rego expiry data] Engine: RB26058254A Compliance date: 2003-03 Unregisterd at the moment.
  12. Hey mate. curious as too how your needles are so Bright. i know in all my R33s ive owned and ive put LEDS in all of them bright ones too. yet the dial needles seem to be dark as at night time and not illuminated like yours. any tips??? or do the r32 cluster have a led right on the needle?
  13. Surprised you dont have the Tomei coilpack cover insignia. haha very nice and tidy though.
  14. PS love the toothless addition ahah does suit it well.
  15. good work mate. just enjoy ti as it is for now and keep dreaming. I now got a GTR and am doing the same as you saving for a house deposit. and man. so many awesome deals coming up as you said so hard to resist hahaah. Keep up the good work
  16. quick change of color to engien covers? lol. Get it in already!!!
  17. Engine bay needs alot more work to be in my liking but. got a pair of pods and elbows very cheap. all i need is some nice new red filters to amke it look better. Plan on getting the Twin turbo pipe and the elbows sandblasted and cleaned up and powder coated black. My GTR had the twin turbo badge missing so i also purchased a 2nd hand one from the same guy i got the pod elbows from. I know the pods arnt best and factory box is much better. but id rather these. As you can see they look nice and are my favourite of the Pods and elbows you can get for the 33s. And a full engine bay shot. not happy with it but so you guys get the idea. of what im working with. as you can alll see visually theres alot of room for improvement. so perfect for me i be leave. need to relocate the position of where the owner or installer placed the alarm... very unhappy with that. like why?? why not try tuck it in somewhere lol as i got the elbows cheap i also do need to make up some brackets to hold them furmer. Previous owner stupidity up to date i beleave there is 8 Coilpack bolts or so maybe 6 cant remember all i know is there was only 3 holding them all down. When i went to pull the AFMs off to attach to my Pod Elbows. Easiest to get to AFM tight. Hard to get to hose clamp on bottom AFM Lose. AFM pulled straight out. Earth wire on back of coilpack cover for igniter loose.. More to come as i find them lol. Ordering in some Redline heavy gear old for my gearbox to hopefully smoothen out some shifting problems ive been happening. Opinions welcome and all information given taken into consideration. i lvoe feedback. NEED to get rid of my 9.5x 18s and 10x 18s to get a clean set of 10s all round for the AWD system to be happy....also another previous owner fault...
  18. sorry to bring up a old thread i know. but anyone end up getting a hold of some of these?
  19. very different cam cover choice. not abd will have to see how it turns out. think itd look the best with alot fo mroe blacked out bits but nice build so far man top job. Have you seen the AI Surge tank setups,
  20. OH sweet build and OH sweet jesus that sounds good.
  21. maybe i can buy the stolen twin turbo badge from the guy who stole it from your pipe. as mine is missing too. lol
