cmon tacker....WE WANT PICS!

LOL ask and ye shall recieve....well pics anyway.

Sorry for the amount of pics just a little excited i guess, and the dust on the car it was out side waiting for 2 hours before i got there. Yes ok i was 2 hours late getting there.

Very happy with it at this point! Currently at bottomline for the graphics to be applied tomorrow and also a new set of wheels. So more pics when the car is complete.

Also good news took up the lease on a new 2900 sqft wharehose between 5 other car nuts so have a good location to keep the old girl now.

And a little pic of its stable mate ..... i can hear the GTR now...when i grow up i want a turbo THAT big

MMMMM ware house = lots of room perfect

Yeah, it's heaven! Especially considering I've never had a garage or carport to work on the car.

Car looks great as well! What rims are you going for?

Can't argue with that. I currently have 12 wheels in rotation for the GTR. BBS LM, Enkei NT-03 and Weds Sport TC-05. and I don't think I can part with any of them. Love them all. >_<

looks sweet tacker....like Neil says, "if you can't go fast, look good". You'll never lose it in the car park.

Russ...have you spoken to Sydneykid? He should be able to give you a starting point.

yeah I think shock set-up will be the biggest challenge now. I spent a year and a half playing with 4 way sachs set-up on a 996 cup car and we spent a year before we had a really good set-up nailed for the 3 NSW tracks (bear in mind we were in the dark completely at the beginning). with my own ohlins I have spent some time trying to set them up but after all that I wished I'd had the time to get them on a shock dyno and get some good starting point either from gary or paul joyner here at bilstein in sydney. so my only advice is keep at it!! it should be super quick now and definitely up there with the best. can't wait to see what you think of the new set-up.

      My BMW 335i

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
