Lots of work to the car... - Major service done by Glende Garage which included timing belt, water pump, all fluids, all filter, some old cracked hoses, wrecked gaskets and random bits and pieces...very happy with the work and service - Repair of 5 broken exhaust studs also by Glynde Garage - New Wheels! Set of Rays Gram Lights 57DR, down to 18" with Pilot Sport 4 tyres....car looks muchhhh better in my opinion...very happy!

Old as thread but what were thoughts about 18x9.5 + 15? Will these poke alot? Obv rolled guards and camber adjustment

Thanks for that! I missed that step

The old stock one is hanging on by a thread...theres some biggg cracks in it. I guess I'll how this one goes, pretty easy to find a stock one and replace it if needed.

Latest small mod - gkTech Cluth Fan upgrade... Super easy mod, their youtube video makes it even easier. The amount of air this new fan pulls through is phenomenal...these gkTech people lnow what theyre doing... What is the next thing to do....recommendations?

2 mods today First is a GKTech Brake Master Cylinder stopper. Next a GHTech sticker for the extra 2KW! Just gotta drive it now to see what difference it makes...

Its been a long time....since I posted here...not sure if anyone's still reading but hey, why not write what I do. A new battery is installed, the car has been driven and will be driven for a couple of days....get the joints moving again.... Order some small parts....and let's get this car going again!

A small but cool little "mod" Carbon fibre spoiler blade...is it rear Carbon or is it a wrap...you tell me? Whatever it is, I did it myself....

Some small but highly effective work done on the car today, got some small door dings fixed! You can see the before and after. If anyone is looking for a paint-less dent repairer, Dentech Paintless Dent Repairer in South Australia is highly recommended!

Question for fellow Skyliners - What are good intake setups that people use? I am looking for a good looking, well built setup which looks almost OEM. I have no intrest in having pods hanging around in the engine bay. Is just the HKS performance filter a good enough upgrade?

2) Installed big brakes ? This was a project of mine which I wanted to do since I bought the car...my R33 now has R34-GTR Brembo Calipers, PMU Pads and Disks and GKTech Stainless Steel Braided lines, running Castrol Response DOT4 fluid. These were fairly more intrusive, but some tips if someone else is trying it out: - Go to a proper fastners shop and gets bolts from there that fit, forget the old stuff that came with the calipers - Get a nice expensive drillbit and some cutting fluid to drill your hubs - Get an angle grinder or a reciprocating saw, this works just as well - Make your own bleeder with some hose and a clear bottle, rather than the 1-man bleeders you can buy at auto-parts stores Apologies for the average pictures, car needs a clean and a photoshoot with the new brakes....

Updates to the car: 1) Installed a cheap chinese Android Headunit The system works..ok for the cost. I am still trying to set it up and giving different apps a go, I will check in again once I have it setup well... This was easy to install. I bought a Nissan to ISO adapter from SuperCheap Auto, cut the ISO plugs off and wired in the headunit plug and voila, it works!

Completed a coolant flush over a couple of days while I waited for parts to come in. There are currently 2 majorish projects going on with the car, more to come very soon...hopefully....

Currently I am making a list of all the required bolts....good thing I bought a thread gauge instead of assuming threads of bolts. I think I will just go stainless steel bolts and washer. I dont mind that button head design, its just a matter of which bolts I change and which I leave....I am leaning towards just buying a bulk order of bolts and changing them out as I go around the engine bay and pull/replace parts..

Working on a bigish project on the car right now...but waiting for some parts which have not arrived due to COVID. Who else is affected by this thing? In the meantime, I bought some Stainless Bolts to try and see what I like the look of and am thinking of slowly replacing the bolts around the car Thoughts? I am not sure if I like the socket head.. also needs washers...
