ok to update this thread. the car has had a major service with dan at ERD, running beautifully now and sitting over 100,000kms

mods done:- Duel-stage boost controller

Blow off valve

Wing removed and car de-badged

Reper33: thanks for the comments, glad u like the car however i am sad to say i still cant understand ur plates!?? please explain...

and as for the rear lights being painted, was just cheaper than buyin the impul covers for them and looks cool, makes the colour flow and

is different to the black rear garnish every other 4door has!

there not covers, i taped up the lights and sprayed the black bits the same colour as the car, bit they look ausome just like a s2 but flush with the car. id love s2 lights but hey mine r different.

Lol! You did such a great job on those lights. you fooled me into thinking they were covers. So how did you get that perfect circle for the lights?

Maybe i should have done this with out spending so much on S2 tail lights.

i have pics i took whilst doin it, ill dig them up 2moro but i basically just used masking tape and a good eye. i love spraying stuff, i tink i was a spraypainter in a past life, so after a wile u get good at it.

    • Impossible to remove the housing while turbo is installed on the manifold on the engine. So I have to do it anyways. I plugged it so there will not be any debris in there. Will vacuum aswell 
    • would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)    
    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
