Well i picked up my GTR about a month ago from Sydney. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Fs...29#entry4015029

Big thanks goes to Tomek for helping me pick her up. Couldn't have done it without ya bud.

Anyway it's down in Melbourne at the moment getting a few add ons and a bit of a tweek. Should be back up in Townsville mid to late October. Looking forward to some weekend drives.

congrats on the car.

good luck on the maintainance of a 10sec car.

Is 500hp not enough for you??

Never!!! Mwhahahaha.

Yeah it will be enough for what i'm going to use the car for Packy. I'm not after more power.

The add ons are a HKS EVC Boost controller and one of their new Type-1 turbo timers. I'm also hunting for a good alloy radiator and shroud. Billion Thermostat. Wheels will probably be after that. And the list goes on. Good times good times.

I dont think marty will be able to drive his car for quite some time. because his engine has been stripped down, due to him a detonation problem in cylinder 6. he told me that the piston was a wee bit melted.

I would be keen to bring my line out for a drive though. I am still yet to see a R33 with the same factory colour as mine.

f**king piss poor effort by the tuner if you ask me

melting pistons with that kinda power output

ill be back in the country on the 26thoct mate, and ive got a shit load of boxes to bolt shit to me car, that and spending time with the woman, ill be jet lagged as all f uck,,

Ill have to pass on the 31st one, However ill be keen for one thats on a weekend in november during the afternoon into the nite as i wanted to get some pro pics taken and posted up on here, Then sus out for a biger and better planed Skyline cruise later on down the track. Say cairns..

Im just thrownin some idears out there thast all,

Make sure to take some pics on the 31st cruise mate, post them up, tail lights and a few lined up etc.. all types 32s33s,34s 31s :-)

I think its cool if other non skylines come to the cruises however in respect to it behing a skyline cruise they will have to sit at the end of the packet.

So that if anyone where to be irresponsible with there vechiles then it does not bing disrepute to the skyline forums and skyline owners, which in turn may affect later cruises.

Im just thrownin some idears out there thast all,

Not trying to run the show lol

Im just hell keen on a good proper cruise.

SO im keen for mid nov on a weekend.

Cheers

    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
    • The video for the servicing and fuel filter change can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44 One of the main jobs I wanted to do before the car officially went on the road, was to remove the awful looking blue silicone hoses. There's nothing wrong with having coloured silicone hoses, but I realise as I'm getting older I prefer monotone engine bays with a splash of colour on the engine cover(s). I cover this in a lot more detail in the Youtube video, so unfortunately there's limited photos of the process. The intercooler, upper radiator, boost vacuum and upper breather hoses were all changed to black silicone with mikalor clamps. The only blue left is a blanking cap at the back of the inlet manifold and the GReddy pulleys (which will be replaced for stock when the cambelt gets replaced) While the intercooler pipes were off I gave them a quick clean/polish too A before photo I do have a replacement air filter on its way. Fuse box covers were painted blue, they're now satin black Another job on the list while the bumper was off, is to add some mesh https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737966256_99b28bfa30_c.jpg[/img] I was hoping to use some thin wire to secure it, but it seems I've misplaced it and the wire I had was too thick to twist easily. I ended up using cable ties for the time being https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737131882_c2b7989dcc_c.jpg[/img] Was pleasant to see this https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737131627_8b2aab13b3_c.jpg[/img] The last thing to do was to fix the front grill and re-mesh that to match but I ran out of time The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4FsF6tgizE&t=23s
