Hey All,

Just thought I'd introduce myself and put a couple of pics up of my new car 96 model Series 2 4dr.

As I have been on SAU for a while now with a few different cars like a 180sx, A31 cefiro and a JZZ30 twin turbo soarer just to name a few...

The current spec is:

Apexi Coilovers

Short shift kit and aftermarket clutch

5 zigen exhaust

Weds 17 rims and new 17 x 9 dished +20 :thumbsup:

When I first picked it up:

New Rims:

Cheers

Phill

mmmm i can feel the 33 4 door love in the air :thumbsup:

Black is sexy as hell....hmm i think i need a respray!

Dont want to sell those first set of rims do you?

Yeah I am pretty happy with black, but the first rims are being kept for track rims!

those red rims should be burnt at the stake!!!!

I know what you mean, thats why it as the first thing I changed! though they do have carbon centres so they look alright up close.

burnt at the stake... ONLY A WITCH WOULD KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS!!!

I CALL SHENANIGANS!!!!

EVERYBODY GRAB A BROOM!!!! IT'S SHENANGIANS AGAIN

Nice four jasra, I like the GTR bodykit :P Any other mods?

Nice clean 4 door, they look so good in black! I dont go much on either rims though...I'd have to say i prefer the red lipped ones, something about the big centers on the other rims doesnt do it for me. drop it at the back and take the spoiler off :thumbsup:

Taking the spoiler is on the cards when I get my sideskirts painted and now it looks like I'l have to flare the guards a little as I just picked up another set of new rims :( New pics should be up soon *fingers crossed*

Thanks to all for the comments :rofl:

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
