' date='12 Jun 2006, 10:53 PM' post='2250085'] awsome mitchy :) brett is a top dude :O

they brought my nismo frontbar back from the dead (almost 3whole days of work on it)

yeah.. i rang around a fair bit, everyone gave me outrageous quotes as they didnt want to touch fibreglass (but wouldnt admit it), and they were all reluctant to do any work on the car at all.

brett said straight out he would do it for me, and he has had the best price, quickest time, and best attitude of the lot!

when i need my rear bar modified for twin exhausts, i know where im taking it :D

Just remember who ever you go with to have patience, make sure you have a run around car, and make sure you get the total cost, including refitting and removing the windows. 32 front windscreens tend to crack when you remove them, so budget for that too.

Oh and take heaps of photos so you know where everything goes back too >_<

well its starts off as 3k upwards, depends what i want done. they said that they rub the car to bear metal and fix all the lil dents and stuff. i am only after the outside of the car done. so i am expecting around 4 to 5 k with the job i want done and i am in no rush. no deposit needed so i can just drop my car off. job could take a few months but as i said i am in no rush cause i need to come up with the money. first i am getting the full exhaust system and a FMIC on my car then i will be putting it in for paint. hoping to get a grand out of my tax return.

Lol no rush, by the sounds of it weve got months :D

Yeh mitchy your car should look interesting once its finished. What bar did you choose? and why black for the tail light surrounds?

chose the trust style front bar again, however it doesnt have the side vents anymore, no indicator cutouts in the front, and its designed for a gts-t, not a gtr like the last one.. :thumbsup:

black surrounds is just something different, will probably tint the hot-plates too.

might be getting some veilside rear pods too, dave is checking if he had some floating around. :D

saw your r32 sitting inside.. didnt even realise it was a skyline, thats how stripped it was :)

should look sweet come autosalon :)

    • I havent bought a manual cover for the dash yet and no cluster change, won't bother me too much, I just need to get that auto box gone, manual in! I miss my manual. 🤪. We started last weekend and managed to get the box out. Planning to start putting it in this weekend and then order a single piece tail. We were super careful to take time and not damage anything. It's my first time working under the car.  With my S15 mainly worked in the bay. This time, it was a headache because of three or four bolts only. They simply didnt want to leave thei homr and the one securing the tailshaft, another above the GB, and the one securing the lipstick was a shit. Mates mate, Davo caught fire 🤣, nearly opened his chest up with a grinder 🤦🏽‍♂️ and both mates nearly had a plate from the box land and slit their head open. Fun times. We all survived. Not the easiest working with limited access on jackstands. As I'm sure we can agree these are the memories which make us love our car. For all three of us, was an awesome weekend and Sunday 3.30am before tools down was a fantastic effort. I need to upload pics, but looks like it needs to be via Url now. We used to be able to just upload pics back in the day. It's been that long! 🤪 Im currently spraying rustoleum under body, not because it's rusted. It's super clean, but just so it's protected for the next 10 years. There was a few surface rust spots. Which pretty much wiped off with a 3M scourer.  Really impressed with how well the previous owner maintained it. Bank account went down so quick! Service, then GB - managed to get a spanking new 34 genuine box from Nissan. All the rest of the conversion parts from Kudos.  Went with a Nismo short shifter. New pedals and Exedy Clutch and FW. Ordered the Prp Rear Main Retainer kit which should arrive Friday and my first engine mod part just like I did with my S15 will be the Tomei Expreme Turbo Outlet. Already on order. It'll likely sleep next to me on a pillow during the coming months. 🥰 Last build was on my JET200GT profile and on SAU and Hardtuned I had documented the build. Planning to try to do that again. Brands feel scarce now. Wish we still had ARC and Apexi parts readily available. Exhaust - need some advice on this. I had an Apexi exhaust on the S15 and loved the tone. My mate had a HKS HP Silent on his 33 and suggested I go with that to avoid drone. I can't remember hearing an RB25DET running that so will likely need to wait for a meet or something to hear it.  Not after big power, just enjoy building it, and drivability with minimal negative attention.
    • Have a chat with Ben at Moore Performance or Jesse at JS Performance.
    • Thanks both. All good advice. Reminds me of drilling through stone wall for drainage pipe 😬 I'll let you know how I get on if I still have use of my hands afterwards 😅
    • Finally got shipping number for the intake and throttle body, shipped by UPS, so "should" be in my hands sometime next week, fingers fracking crossed
    • I'm so far behind in the jobs I have to do at both work and home (including car) that I have become immortal. There's simply no way that I can die now.
