also look at the front bar.. the indicator on the right shows that its been rotated to that angle thats why the indicator looks ugly and shadows and stuff are easy to do if you are good with photoshop...

yeah im in two minds about it being a chop... as for the wipers they are recessed below the hood on Cima's. the lines of the arches around the wheels and the driving lights seem a bit suspect. if its a chop, its pretty good :D

I had another look at it.

Kietz is definitely right about some photoshop work (ie. lights, plate & windscreen) but I think the camber & slamming look pretty genuine.....he could have just dropped it with the airbag suspension.....he obviously doesn't drive like that.

Got pulled over by a traffic cop this morning from my exam at TAFE to work. Driving down Greenhill Road motorcycle cop going the other way has a long hard stare at me. I see him do a u-turn in my rear view, so I think "here we go!". Pulls me over and comments on how "fast" I was travelling. I inform him I was behind a tow truck and well under 60kph. He doesn't push that further.

Next he asks what year Skyline my car is. I tell him its a Stagea ... a family wagon. He then tells me he's checking my rego, because there was a large group of "these type of cars" racing around the city on the weekend. I kindly inform him that I was the event organiser of that cruise and I know for sure no one was racing around the city. I told him the full route of the cruise and how many turned up.

Asked to look inside my cabin. Asked about the mount on my dash, its for my GPS. No aftermarket gear there, so he can't do me for anything. Even queried if my DVD player was legal (looked too large in his opinion). Looked at my exhaust, asked to hear it. Quiet as, so he moved onto the next thing. Can he look under the bonnet ... stock looking, so leaves me be there too. Does ask if it has a BOV, I say is has a factory bov plumbed back into the system. "Are those mags legal?" he asks me. 18" from 16" is legal I say. He checks for worn tyres. Has a looooong look at the ride height. I cut in telling him the lega height is 360mm and mine are set 370mm, even offer to get my own tape measure from the car. Then he moves onto the rear glass ...

He says its an illegal tint. I tell him its factory privacy glass, not a tint. He umms and ahhs for a long time and calls it in, I'm thinking he's not going to care what answer he gets, and will do me for that (he was looking for something!), but no he tells me to drive safe and gets back on his bike.

:rant:

He was looking for something to pin on me. :D

    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • 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.
