that is something i'm contemplating, if i cant find a lock.
-
hey guys
i would like to hear from anyone selling a boot lock for the R33 GTST.
the one which has the nissan badge that swivels over the keyhole.
i will also need the key ( obviously)
Cheers
Gordon

lol... i'm guessing they ripped the swivelling badge off your boot lock right? how does that make it any easier for them to break into your boot? LOL.. when all it does is cover the boot lock.
imo i'd leave it.. my bet is you'll go through the hassle of changing everything
then the same punks will laugh and come and badge it again...
they took the entire lock mechanism and theres a big gaping hole in my boot lid!!!! i'll have to do something about that!!!! lol

Hey guys
i was just wondering if anyone knows if it is difficult to install the rear boot lock??
as mentioned some shmuck helped themselves to my badges.
I have a "96" r33 gtst and the rear badge as you all probably know covers the lock,
which they took as well.
also can they open the boot easily now?? i have an alarm that will go off if they do but i'd prefer to keep
people out the old fashion lock and key way.
when i change the lock can i change the internals to fit my key or am i destined to roam the streets with
two sets??
Thanks in advance guys.
Gordon
p.s. if i happen to catch the little bastards and break their hands, does that make me the criminal??????

Haha,
Thanks for the reply.
I should be more specific.
the actual bulb isn't even there.
looking at it i would guess that its one of those bulbs that look like a fuse.
that is a silver cap on either end of a small looking cylinder.
hope some one knows of these.
Is that what the parkers look like?

Hi guys
Just wondering if anyone could tell me the
Bulb size and type for a R33 Gtst series 2 boot
I've never had one and i'm tired of not being able to find stuff in the dark.
Thanks in advance.

An old airconditioner.
Brand is "GENERAL"
Has been sitting in the garage for at least 6 years.
Can't guarantee it to work because i do not have a 10 amp outlet to test it with.
But it did work when it was taken out. (I know that was a long time ago!!!!!)
As you would have deduced you need a 10 amp outlet if you want to use it.
Why don't l chuck it out??? Because i'm pretty sure it works and it seems a waste to throw out a functional
A/C.
It looks dusty as you can imagine. other than that its like any other old school air conditioner. ( Like the ones you find in motels)
FREE TO A GOOD HOME
Just come and pick it up.

A Set Of JIC Coilovers
FOR R33 GTST
Have dampening adjustment.
I do not know what the spring rates are but they are extremely stiff. I believe the person that had the car before me drifted with this setup.
Also one of the bump stops is a bit worn, how it happened i do not know as i don't think it could have been from bottoming out.
The 3RD photo is to show the comparison of the JIC to a Bilstein Shock
In Sydney.
$900

Just a short update to any one that cares.
I have had my alarm fixed and installed with additional ultrasonic sensors. i am very happy with the system and a lot more confident in leaving the car in the parking lot, more so than before anyway.
System install was done by Allen. J, was very happy with his skill and work would recommend to anyone. I even have the manual now and know what all the buttons do and functions my alarm has.
Cheers to everyone for all their advice and opions.

Hi R.C
Thats the thing though, if l disarm the car, open up the passenger door and for arguments sake drop my keys in the car then shut the door, after 30 seconds doors will lock and imobiliser rearms itself.
This is what lead me to believe that the passenger door was not hooked up. ( i also did not get a instruction manual with the alarm.)
R.C and godzl1975
you have no idea how hard it is to control myself from blurting out the name of the place that installed the alarm ( think l read somewhere that slander is not tolerated on businesses in the forum), but l guess silly me learn't the hard way that you do indeed get what you pay for.
I have followed Chris Rogers advice in this forum and pay someone decent money to do the job once, save myself the hassle..
Thanks R.C and godzl1975 for the replies though, much appreciated
hopefully get this alarm sorted out in the next two weeks.

ahh, so am l behaving
what causes it to move up??
and do i get a warning that it will move up before hand?
not that l'm willing to test it out.
P.S Is it possible to edit or for you to edit my user name??
I dont like how the first bit is OPtimus l'd prefer Optimus.. l cant seem to change it in my controls.
When l noticed it was too late to change it.
Cheers

Hey Ed
I got my suspension bits from a group buy from Sydneykid, Its in the For Sale: Group buy section
http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...showtopic=85591
You probaly may have already seen or been to his threads
He does the R32 Group buy as well, although l bought R33 springs and shocks off him. Bilstein Shocks, Whiteline Springs
If you dont get anything off him, at least shoot him a PM for suggestions, l'm almost positive he'll give you all the advice (unbiased) you need.
And he is not paying me to say this
but l am really happy with the setup and from all the other replies to his various posts, everyone else is also.Cheers mate and Goodluck

yeah, l have yet to get a new one. more money...... damn it.....

l should borrow my friends pitbull and keep it in the car for the time being

Hey Xizor
I just fitted finished fitting new shocks in my car today, so l am ready to tackle this issue now.
l dont suppose you have a contact number for alan????
l know he is from MAXI security but l dont have a number,. also could you tell me how much it cost you??
as you know l already have the alarm. but if he has to take it out and put it back in. i think its gonna hit the hip pocket a bit. wooooo, nothing a bit of O/T at work can't handle l suppose.... 4 hours of extra work a day....ergh...
cheers

Have just installed the bilstein kit from this group buy.
l actually look forward to getting into my car for once, as opposed to dreading the harsh ride before this awesome setup.
Garry how do you remain so patient ansewring the same questions over and over again?? ( i know i'm guilty of it
) All i have to say is that l am another happy customer.
Cheers Garry Thanks for everything. look forward to buying the stabilser's soon.

-
Does anyone have photo's of where the castor adjustable bushes go?
or be able to describe to me in good enough detail which arm it is?
l know there is a thread with some photo's but l have looked for days and can not find it again. if someone could forward that, it would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
PS. the forum search engine is pretty crappy
-
hmmm
yeah l still need them
or if you dont want to seperate l will consider the whole strut.
anyone out there with stuffed struts??? surely theres one leaking somewhere
but l am really happy with the setup and from all the other replies to his various posts, everyone else is also.
Badged!
