I'm going to disappoint a few, but i do prefer the SII upgraded appearance, but i have owned my SI for the last 9yrs and never felt the need to "upgrade".

Just stated that one doesn't need a SII :P

My latest achievement: SAU VIC 2009 "Best 33 GTST" and "Best Overall GTST/GTT"

Soon after that: My latest cosmetic modification

heaea, i was just shit stirring. i like sI front end, tho prefer the sII front end.

bugger about the roo, hope it not too much on the wallet.

if i remember correctly the sI seat fabric came straight out of a 70's strip club. that could be a good point? hrm...

very nice nur33 just dunno about the carbon fibre canards at the front

thanks mate there not there for looks they are there for a purpose besides slicing my leg open when i walk past haha!!!!

Nur33 - Looks the goods, and looking at that engine bay I'm assuming she's got some punch.

Those front air ducts where the indicators sit and the Nismo ZTUNE style bonnet are similar styling mods to my car.

While I'm at it might aswell post up mine....

hey um ssxRicho... you fail so hard, do you even know what a skyline is? that supposedly s1 r33, is actually a s14.. lol lol. fail of the day..

dont believe me, have a long stare at it..

now if you want to post a s1 r33 find one with skirts all round and black headlights and maybe a gtr grill to match..

and s1 type m front bar its to die for.. better than the s2 (imo)

now for the s2, how can you possibly like the front indicators and fog lights.. and the way the front bar pokes forwards.. :D

Entirely my opinion, dont care if you own a s2 or not, they can sometimes look nice, but hey, you couldnt even post up a skyline to represent the s1's.. *sheakes head*..

While I'm at it might aswell post up mine....

Wow that looks good. Love the bonnet (and headlights... bastard!!).

Can spot some Alcons behind your front rims as well?

To answer your question, yup mine is almost strictly a track car. Doesn't see much road duty.

LOL, thanks mate...

Yep Alcons all round, and I'm upgrading aswell... :woot:

I know, I've got problems... :ermm:

Thanks for all the comments guys!!!!

Pity I've only driven it three times in the last 12 months... :D

Brockas - Noticed you have Alcons aswell, which model/size are they???

omg i love that s3 gtr! saw it at a show and shine, and by far the best car, and my fav rims too :woot: sooo nice..

last i saw it had balck lip and standard mirrors, you sir, own my dream car :ermm:

Thats correct, got the whole front (bonnet/guards/front bar) resprayed and decided to paint the lip for a change. Fitted the aerocatch bonnet pins aswell.

The front of my car was hammered from 2 years of track days, had to replace the windscreen aswell.

While at the panel beaters got the Ganador mirrors fitted and painted, aswell as the side skirts, rear bar and rear spats.

Picked it up a day before the show'n'shine as shown in the pics above.

I can say I'm very happy with the way it looks lately and dreading taking it back out on the track.... :D

havent posted any pics of mine for a while so will start with my old front bar. Was ugly with cracks.post-45625-1262165174_thumb.jpg

followed by track time at PC09

post-45625-1262165238_thumb.jpg

hey um ssxRicho... you fail so hard, do you even know what a skyline is? that supposedly s1 r33, is actually a s14.. lol lol. fail of the day..

lol i noticed that after i posted it, google thumb nails failed me and of course the forums lock you so you cant change it after a while...

it kinda looks like a s1 33 at 100x100, maybe.... :/

thus the post above with the shit stirring.

either way the s1 s14 front end isnt as nice as the s14a.

damn i posted that in 2009 as well :( no post of the year for 2010 for me, bugger.

JAGR33 is there an insert in the front intake, or is it painted? it looks like the sun it behind the car is most of the pics, but still the intake is sooo

dark. it looks fantastic.

They are carbon fibre ducts made by Border Racing Japan. I painted them matt black as they had heaps of stone chips.

They are functional in the way that my HKS oil cooler sits behind the passenger side duct, I've also cut a square hole out of the guard liner so the air comes in through the duct, passes through the oil cooler and out the back through the hole in the guard liner. Made a heap of difference to oil temps on the track.

    • @GTSBoy yeah i know it was not the "great" idea but it is and option...but i think i will stay on no BoV rather then trying to make it work with "half" this and that. But that GReddy FV2 is cool...i like that you can make it like stock if you want (and have/make the custom pipes) For other thanks! it was alot of information. But for the sound...a dont rly "like" both of them...specialy if they are loud...but if i "must" choose i would rather have little whooosh rather than sutututu with no BoV....BUT that is what is i gonna get. So for the all info i gather. In my case:  No BoV is not that bad cuz it is stock...and iam used to put N/clutch right after rpms are around 1000 so it should be ok...just need to avoid "big" drops. But i do not have the engine in the car so i do not really know how "bad" or good it is. But as i had that little test drive it looked ok. The atmo BoV should be worse car would dump to much fuel specialy between the shifts...so without proper tune/ECU i dont want that. BUT with that...car should drive ok with no problems right? (i do like there is less piping wih this solution) 🙂 
    • Usually an RB20 won't stay in closed loop idle anyway. The O2 sensor gets too cold, stops swinging.
    • They aren't, but it depends on what interests you about an R32-R34. If it's the front engine I6 turbo that tunes well with a manual transmission an E92 335i 6MT is so incredibly cheap. You can get a super clean one for 20-25k USD tops. Put an LSD in it, tune it, have fun with it. If it's the general idea of AWD + turbo and a manual transmission the 996 Turbo is absolutely much more expensive, it's less practical but it's also basically a complete track-ready car from the factory. At least the Mezger doesn't have heaps of oil control issues. And in the US the 996 Turbo and R33 GTR are roughly the same price these days. 996 maybe a bit more now that the hype has abated for old Skylines here.
    • these are not the same
    • Best kept secret for seized bolts is crayons... Heat the sucker up with a torch, and push/melt crayon into it. Works a wonder. See if I can go 2 from 2 for you on how to get your bolts out...
