http://www.uras.com.au/ might interest you. There are a few suppliers around of various levels of quality. The one linked is quite good and fitment seems to be very good (at least for their 32 and S13 kits). If you want different styles you need to search for pictures of various kits, choose the ones you like, find out what brand they are, then try and get either a genuine (really expensive in general) fiberglass or copy (nightmare to fit in general) fiberglass item. I've personally got a uras front and Origin side and rear. The only other option is to find a kit which is found on a stock car, such as 400R for R33s and fit that kit. For the GTR kits however you need to realise that the panels are different and probably will making fitting a big headache. I don't really know what stock kits came with R33s, for R32s I know there is a "type-m" kit for both 2-door and 4-doors. These are made of plastic (very strong, light and flexible) and fitment is generally perfect (assuming you are trying to fit to the same chassis as the original came from), of course then you will still end up paying the same or more likely more for painting :pirate:. Finally if you want a good quote I'd suggest visiting DT panels in Springvale (12 lightwood drive).

Scottie not a tight arse on this lol got 2k saved hopign that should be a decent amount for a kit..anyone ehard anythign about www.topstage.com.au my mate just got his r33 kit there they fit it and everything he just has to find somewhere to prep and paint it..

    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
    • It's TWO steering wheels actually. 😛 one for each hand They are wheels, and they steer!
