  1. Any of the models with the right kit can look damn sexy. Such as that kitted 32. WTF? That's some really deep analogy you got going there. Not sure if I quite understand it though.
  2. I too would very much like to see this! Actually, today I was flicking through the new Auto Slaon magazine and I saw one of the best wide body kits for R33's. Looks damn hot all around!
  3. Every incarnation is improved. Get a series II. That is all.
  4. How old are all of these? Also, would the boots fit a size 12 foot?
  5. I've just put these in. Looks hot! But they come out very easily. What's to stop a theif taking these off your car? Like, has anyone done something to secure them better?
  6. Where did you get this from/done? Or was it a full custom job? BTW I think you're nuts to want to swap this. It looks freaking hot!
  7. Thanks heaps guys!
  8. Ok, I'm probably being over cautious here, but is there a write up on how to install the clear blinkers for the R33 Gts25t? I've already searced to no avail!
  9. Excluding the GTR's (which all look awesome) here's is what I think of the exterior (factory standard); R31 = Ok, but a bit long in the tooth now. Factory wheels look crap. R32 = Streamlined, yet semi aggresive. Just looks fast. Not a fan of the rear. Looks like someone in kinda was playing 'shapes' and just plonked them on there. White & black look best. Factory wheels look crap. R33 series 1 = Yuk! Hate the front end, badges, bonnet and factory wings. Doesn't look like a sports car, more like a badly dressed sedan. Best thing is the factory illuminated rear panel. Factory wheels look crap. R33 series 2 = Sleek with curves in the right places. More refined & smooth look. Subtle bonnet bulge & sharper headlights still retain an aggresive look though. Much better M spec wing & front bar. Orange blinkers on the front bar make it look a little dopey & outdated. Rear end just a tad bulbous (would have looked better if the boot went straight across & flat which would bring down the back slightly too). Silver & white look best. (white best suited to red tail light contrast). Factory wheels look crap. R34 = Most aggresive stance. Looks mean as ass looks like it's slightly higher than the front. More brute than sexy. Compact. Best looking tail lights, but cheap looking (tail light) surrounds. Front lights not aggresive enough & look to 'family car' without the eye lids. Nismo front bar looks hot! Can look like a cereal box on wheels at times. Love the rear wing. All colours except yellow look great. Yellow just good. Factory wheels look semi-decent. Interior wise (factory standard); R31 = Outdated (but that can't be helped) Back room good. R32 = Outdated (again, can't be helped). But good at the time. Back room crap. R33 s1 = Can't get past that steering ugly wheel, probably nicer colour seats than the R33 s2. R33 s2 = Nice, but a bit too simple & refined. Hasn't dated much compared to the previous models though. Back room crap. R34 = Best. More aggresive dash. Guage mounts nice touch. But hate the poxy two tone colour seats. Seats could have been more figure hugging too. Looks like this is where the cost cutting came in. LED a/c display not as nice as R33. Back room crap. Engine wise, every successor has gotten better. If I had to choose between the single turbo Skyline's, then it would be the R34 GTT, then R33, R32, R31. For the GTR's, it would be the same order. R34, R33 then R32. This would make sense as every incarnation has been better in the majority of aspects. I don't think car manufacturers go out to make a worse next generation car. *Note that any car can be made to look up to 50% better with some nice rims.
  10. I think these rims are discontinued. Don't hold me to that though. Anyway, they look really tough & unique (reverse dish)!
  11. JustJap (or one of the other sponsors on here) or Nissan I believe.
  12. How much more torque?
  13. Both sets of LED tail lights look the goods. Never thought I'd say that about LED tail lights. But you can't compare the poxy Chinese ones to these types.
  14. ebay http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Nissan-Skyline-R33-...1QQcmdZViewItem http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Nissan-Skyline-R33-...1QQcmdZViewItem http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Nissan-Skyline-R33-...1QQcmdZViewItem
  15. But where can I get a real one from?
  16. How would we see this vid? All I see is a pic of the back of your car imbedded in this thread.
  17. So are you endorsing this buy or not? I'm confused. haha
  18. Is that a GTR wing you've got on the back there?
  19. I was referring to an R33 GTR wing. So anyone know where to get a good one?
  20. Where did you get your GTR wing from and how much?
  21. Doesn't the R33 Turbo have a small stock intercooler? Or are you referring to an after market intercooler?
  22. This happens with mine too. But only when the oil temp has not settled. Give it 3 mins after starting and see if it has any flat spots then. Mine does when the oil temp has not dropped enough. When it has, then it's fine.
