eriktufa,

The colour of leather can be changed by dying it. I looked into this cause I make up the leather gearstick and handbrake boots for the R33's. Check in the yellow pages. Apparently it works very well and is very durable cause it's dyed, not sprayed on.

Just to give you an idea on price, I got quoted $850 to do two front seats !! Not cheap, but cheaper than getting new leather put on...

About the clear front indicators. I have a pair of clear front indicators for a GTR (the ones that go in the front bar). I haven't put them in yet, and I may be willing to flog them off. Drop me a PM for your interested.

SHUTO-BOY, a turbo already give my mom and dad a headache if I'm speeding and an INTERCOOLER, I won't dream to get it, It's just impossible now :D, any horsepower improvement is almost impossible. I like car with a good look and interior design that's why.

man u should have bought honda then and be like them other ricers if you after just looks but if you want looks,power plus the ability to get more power, then thats the reason we all got skylines :D

sorry to whore in this thread moderators, but i don't like clowns

adrian :D

Ok guys, I don't wanna get more power that doesn't mean I don't want, but My dad won't allowed me, I want to get more power like chaning air filters , exhaust intercooler, and do some stuff, He doesn't trust me that much with turbo car that's all.

I hope you understand, I'm not a clown btw I'm a FR34K. :O

Thanx GTS VSPEC for supporting me.

Audio really cool , I want it to but I have to wait until I live alone cause I have to go shopping every week and I can't put any audio system at the back , poor me :)

erik dont worry about a turbo timer, if it aint hammered all day every day for long periods of boost at a time. then you wont need it, just drive nice. you said you aint gonna go for mad power yet anyways, you turbo is loving its oil bath as it is, temperature is all good. if you got one when you car was imported then yeah thats fine, but otherwise thats money that can be spent on a replacement K&N panel filter or some vinyl dye, Hey go to marlows and look at some of the leather dyes and vinyl dyes. I had a GSR lancer previoulsy I retrimmed in vinyl then decided to chnge the colour the dye worked perfectly, it is spray on but not like paint.

and I was only messing around with you before about beating sense into you. I couldnt care if you read it wrong man, sh-it happens Erik you need to get on the green and chill

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the 2025 build re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I quite rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
