Guys here is the artwork I have but remember this is artist impression only. The end result will purely depend on the skill of the person in control of the machinery and how much time is spent on the initial setup of the die.

PM Mr_g

he had one on his r33..

Think he payed 25 bucks.. but from memory he bought it from a member on here!!

I got some pics of this old 33.. but nothing up close..

But looked very nice tho..

The GTS badge that krzysiu posted up is the one I didn't like because it looks blatantly fake.

here's one of the the vector designs I used for making the SAU logo ages ago. I made the S sorta using the same curves and dimensions as the font of the original GTR logo. Its fairly easy for me to swap the R with the S to make up a GTS logo, the only problem is converting that concept to a prototype for a badge.

Also something to note is that the R32 GTR logo is different to the R33 and R34 ones, the one I've done is based on the R34. So guys with R32 GTS' might not like em (if you're as pedantic as me about these things).

I've done some casting and resin work before, so I'll give it a shot, and see if I can knock out a prototype.

it would look heaps better if it was just GTS in a line wiht a red 'S'

kinda like the old-school GT-R badges

yeah toyed with the idea of havin the old C10 look badge. I mean... if you really wanted you could get the standard GTS badge (not the sticker, all skylines R32 onwards came with the option of badges or stickers) and recolour the S in red.

Shan,

if you could lets us know how you go it would be great,

Maybe work out the degree of difficulty in making the three diffrent sorts (R32,33, 34) and a price accordingly.

For the guys with gt-t maybe look at GT(over)T ?

Let us know.

at last count i think there was 10 or so that wanted them,

Cheers mate

>_<

Hi Scott,

Yep, i still make them. Dont do them very often, but alwats happy to do one

for someone. Who sent you my way?

I can do them in Aluminium with a custom colour "S", and laquered with UV

resistant resin laquer. Normally people have a red "S" but its your choice.

Price is $45 AUS delivered.

Cool I would like an all alloy one with (no red S). Im not real keen on the one posted on the first page the S does not look right.

Using this style (above) would be my first preferance :happy:

The one on the green 33 also looks spot on, especially if we can get the "S" in red.

Let Me Drive: Scott that just doesn't look right at all :angry:

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
