this is my dream 32 4 door. except it would have to have a stock GTR kit all over it. even the stock rims finish it off nicely.

if i got around to it id make the rear wide body spec like the GTR thoe. not easy when you have a door to include.

Stock kit going on next month :P and the rear is rolled as far as you can take a 4 door. If you saw how much addon rear guards were for 4 doors, you'd probably choke ;). Although you can get them :(.

Meisters weren't mine and long gone :).

Vivagarge has the rear wide quarters for a 4 door

$480 for both sides

its 4 pieces one on quarter and one on door on each side

they arre 25mm wider

i had seen a set once on yahoo actions but that was it. but 25mm is hardly enough to notice.

i think the best would be to buy the gts to GTR rear guards off car mate. they only go on the lower half of the body work just like the GTR and mate that suit a 4 door.

anyway good luck with it.

While I wait for the GTR bar to go on with Grill (woot finally) I thought I might post an update about the car. Recently got the car tuned down at Status in Victoria and it went from 200rwkw to 245rwkw. Apparently one of the, if not the, highest power out of a 'stock' 26 at 14psi Status has seen :P.

I have cam gears sitting on the passenger seat but was recommended that they are largely a waste of time. And it's getting a lot more road time now :). Also forgot to mention I have since put a Nismo super coppermix twin plate in, awesome clutch.

No pics of the interior atm because it's sort of unfinished. And the engine bay isn't particularly exciting because i've gone out of my way to make it stock looking (well except that the covers are all painted blue :blink:). Will try and get something though.

Last weekend at the top of buller sub 3 degree weather fresh after a detail.

Thought I might give an update.

Car has been good, just fixed up a few annoyances like the power steering setup and mounted the gauges. I've put some brembos on and 33R rims to clear them.

Also transferred a few goodies over to the daily as things get updated :).

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
