Cheers mate! I've got top secret sideskirts and a mangled trust front bar at the moment.

Specs on the wheels are:

Koya Drift teks

17x8 +34 with a 30mm spacer and 20mm extended LCA on a 215/45/17 -4.5 camber

17x9 +30 something on a 245/45/17 -1.5 camber

Cheers bud! I saw yours roll in, looks good!

mmm, your username looks familiar, ever own an MX5?

I didn't know you know John Ha and his green jellybean! He just mentioned yesterday that he was in the car with you. :)

Yeah I used to own a white mx5 which I sold before getting the skyline. Miss the little thing sometimes but the 33 is heaps more comfortable! Didn't you have a stagea at one stage Adam? And I definitely loved ur roadster as well dude. Seems like all the cars you've had have been modified very well. Big thumbs up to you!

hahah I've known Johnny for years! I recently moved down the road from him too haha.

Yeah I've still got the Stagea, no interest in anyone buying it and it's a damn practical car so I'm just going to keep it and do a few things to it. I miss my MX-5 too, but I love the Skyline in another way, it's wierd. I don't think I'll be letting this one go anytime soon.

Cheers dude! :D

Adam, I saw your car on Sunday at the JDMST meet, but didn't know who you were to pick out and come and say hello, and there were soooo many people there, so asking everyone would have been futile, as you could imagine...

they are Nismo Rays LMGT1's, 18*10 powder coated bronze. originally white

Ok, that's it: Car is coming out of the garage this weekend to show off the white LM GT3's :P

Not gonna wash the thing though. Bugger it. If I do, I'll pull the rims off and clean them one at a time.

Thanks mate, the wheels are drift teks 18x8.5+34 up front & 18x9.5 +35 or 18 (i'll have a look & confirm it for you ) on the rear

Just by liking at them I would definitely say they are +35 at the rear :)

is the paint Ford bionic blue?

Semi-as promised: Car didn't leave the garage, but I did take a few quick snaps: This thing is quite dark in the shade but is VERY vibrant in the sun. Minus the peeling clear coat near the boot, unfortunately.

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
