Hi!

I have a non-turbo R33 Skyline but bought a half cut which has just arrived in Sydney this week. Will be putting this turbo engine etc into the car and I want to put the red GT side badges on the car instead of the blue ones.

Does anyone know where you can get them for cheap. I looked around and the best I can find is $49 each...

Thanks :)

Thanks guys! Not sure what I want to do yet, I might leave the badges for a bit, and get some other stuff done that makes it worth whacking those badges on. I have a few more questions about my conversion but don't really know who to ask...

* My LED's in the spoiler and my reverse lights don't work and I can't figure out why??? Don't want to drag an elec into it so thought I might ask someone!

* I want to upgrade the brakes and everything from the 4 stud pattern to the 5 stud etc... I don't want to spend a fortune on it all but I don't know where to get them... Second hand is ok. I'm getting a 1/2 cut from SSS in Sydney and I think it comes with the front stuff but not the rear.

* Where to try and sell the engine and box and other bits when I take them out of my Skyline, all still good but I won't need them since I have the other ones coming.

* Also can anyone reccomend any nice looking 5 spoke mags (and what tyres are good?) I can get because the ones that are on there I don't like and are so hard to clean...

* And, can anyone suggest where I might be able to get a nice full kit (side skirts, front and rear bar and spoiler) from? I looked at J racing .com and I like the Veilside kit but it doesn't come with spoiler...

Well as you can see I am new to all this but I love my car and do want to play with it a little! Thanks for your help.

      The downside of this is when you try to track the car, as soon as you hit ABS you get introduced to a unbled system. I want to avoid this. I do not want to bleed/flush/jack up the car twice just to bleed the f**kin car.

      But again, the engineers said your cast aluminium would be fine based on the load that would be stretching that section. Same load stretching the bolts in a flex (not the twist), with a much smaller cross sectional area than the original part you've broken. It's why you'd need to be using higher strength bolts, but that's just making up for the strength you lose with less area...

      I am truly amazed someone on this planet was able to cycle the pump using a scan tool. I've always ghetto cycled them on Nissan 90s shit boxes by slamming the brakes and pulling the handbrake to agitate the rear wheels enough to cause a speed difference

      I didn't actually try it at the time but a Launch X431 with the appropriate software licenses/upsell will have the ABS bleed function. The Consult II you can still find some old sets of equipment but they're really, really expensive:

      Well I'll start by saying I'm not an engineer. I am going to go with the KiwiCNC ones.  They are made of 7050 alloy have good fillets and radius.  The material alone is in the order of double the strength and fatigue resistance - Those bolts, once torqued correctly place most of the load at the flat face of the mating surface - the 'stretch' you're talking about through torqueing them up would be far more than the extra stretch 'load' placed on them from a steering input or bump. (in my opinion) so I doubt they would flinch.    - but again "not an engineer".      oh and I don't think stitch welding 7050 is a good idea, likely just weaken the material (from what I read)
