thanks guys, not sure wot the front bar is exactly, bought the car from a mate, so i'll ask him wot it is. picked her up for $12k which is pretty decent price i reckon. yeh BOV stall is a bit of pain, pulled it off for rwc anyway, will plum it back wen i put it back on. there wont be any drunk mates gettin in this puppy. went alarm shopping today. getting alarm w glass/shock sensors imobiliser, keyless entry, central locking, thinking about remote start. .but that an extra $500 for wank factor. .probly wont bother. auto cuz i drive it on our crappy crappy congested freeways 5 days a week :spank:

hey kids, just a quick update if any1s interested. i tracked down a GTR style grill to toughen up the front end (even more!) and gettin my big badass alarm next week, so i can stop bein quite so paraniod about leavin her anywhere for more than 5 minutes. after that lot i'll be sorting my stereo good an proper.. have a kenwood 4 ch amp to power up the 6" pioneers all around, jbl monblock and alpine type R sittin here waiting to go in.. and i picked out my kenwood 7" touch screen to run the show.

still deciding whether to get a real nice clean boot install, with sub in the centre an amps either side in grey carpet. let me kno wot ya think of the plans :P

i like your plans so far. one thing though, DO NOT install HIDs. they look shit in r33 headlights. the stock units arent designed to work with them and you get flaring and glare and all sorts of shit. the only way to do hids properly is to do a retrofit, where you take OEM hids from another car and fit them into your reflector headlights.

and what is that front bar? it is very hot

Auto skylines ftw!!

    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2  
    • Thank you so much for the help
    • Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
