So i've finally got my hands on some new wheels :D

Its Tsw Truxton 19's, width 8 in front and 9,5 on the rear

Now im thinknig of going with a GTR-wing painted in the color of the car, but with the wing-plan painted in the same darkgrey color as the lower part of the car, so what do you think? Should i go GTR-wing or not?

Heres a photo of how she looks now!

Cheers!

So you're going shopping for HKS, Trust, Recaro etc are ya :P

Nah the wheels look nice, they suit the car well!

Thx, hehe, well i've already got Recaro seats, HKS induction kit, HKS EVC III, HKS turbotimer, trust quickshift, nismo coilovers & springs, cusco powerbar and so on, so im in no hurry :D

Same two-tone paint scheme as mine, minus the shopping list stickers :)

What front grill is on your car? My front grill has the fins but I like your one better

If you go GTR wing get it same colour as the top, it might not look right if you get it the same colour as the bottom in my opinion.

Thx! I dont know what grill it is, came with the car, but heres a closeup, bad quality though. The thing about the wing was painting it in the same bright silver, except for the middle part, and painting that in the darkgrey color, might look odd though :)

Cheers!

I'm pretty sure it's a nismo factory option grill (me so jealous :P )

After I get my bodykit sorted I'll probably go with a Gtr wing too, do you mean you're getting the middle part with the stop light of the wing painted in dark grey? Even if it doesn't look quite right, at least it will look different & stand out from other R33's ;)

I wanna get a gtr wing in silver but I'll probably just paint the actual blade part of the wing to match the dark grey.

Will look awesome mate, I reckon your current gt wing is a bit too much (I cringe when I see them on Civics)

GTR wing is the way to go, looks hot & less attention from the police compared to gt wing

THX all!

Yea the GT-Wing does give the police something to complain about, had one of those encounters with a 2.5 meter tall policeman yelling in my face that the wing was a high-risk thing, where ppl could get cough and dragged by the car.. Or if i hit someone he would fly over the roof and get cought and get even more hurt.

I dont know whats best, flying over the car and get cought in the wing, OR flying over the car (would probably have sustained severe injury just getting hit by the car) and straight down in the pavement...

Anyways, i do not have a GTR-badge on the boot, cant say posing is my favourite way to go... :)

    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
