wow that really would be unique!

r33 GTR could look quite cool, with black v spec lip down the bottom, would be tough as.

But I gotta say I'm lovin the look of the wagon with the conversion... Hmmm makes me want to consider a stag... they are much more practical... :rofl:

:blink: loooook`sss AWESOME DUDE it has to be the YELLOW just mint BRYCEY :P i think it`s a STAND OUT ,Are they the wheel`s ???,dude have a look at the last pulsar side indicator bling fit in well on series 2.WELL DONE IT WILL INSPIRE US ALL :rofl: ,CHEER`S chuckie.

Hey Brycey im still in envy of your car mate it looks great :)

I headed down to Nissan yesterday and got some prices for anyone interested... These were trade prices from memory

these are all genuine r34 gtr parts

Hinges - $171 for the pair

non zenon headlights - $1150 for the pair

zenon headlights - $3630 for the pair

bumper reo bar - $355.80

im still up in the air about going the zenon lights at the moment, they are a damn site more expensive but still tempting. I found a brand new set on Yahoo Japan for $2800-$3000 delivered from Slidewize imports.

also Brycey i cant wait for some more pics, especially of the headlight mounts and the cutting of the radiator support u mentioned earlier.

hey brad u can get ballasts, leads and globes to suit any light type for around $150 on ebay so unless the headlight enclosure are shaped different go the cheaper 1.

Thanks Jerome, good info, so Zenon is the same as HID yes? have u got your zenons working yet mate? how much of a difference is there between normal and zenons for vision at night?

unique1 - nice list of prices! it took me about 45 minutes to get prices on the Xenon headlights and the R34 front indicator enclosures at my local Nissan parts outlet (hopeless!) so i just gave up on them. i got the same price for the Xenon's, and the orange indicators were around $80pr.

as jippa mentioned its much cheaper to buy non-xenon headlights and install a HID kit, you'll save a fist full of cash. i prefer the design of the Xenon headlight enclosure but the non-xenon style has really grown on me, especially with the eyelids!

cheers Chris :blink::devil:

here are some new pictures from today. i kept them at a high resolution so just a warning if you have dialup! few things to point out - the bonnet needs some slight adjustment, the bonnet also needs the rubber that goes between the front bar and bonnet, the plastic inner guards need to be re-installed, the rear bar needs some new chrome strips, the side moulds and rear wing need to be re-sprayed, engine bay needs a re-spray, all the engine parts and piping (plus plenum) need a re-spray, CCubed is currently working on a v-spec diffuser - which will be fantastic as it will bring the front end down alittle bit, a few other odd's-n-ends and mild mod's down the track, but for the moment im pretty happy with how she stands :sick:

have a great new year!

Looking great Brycey, i emailed CCubed and he replied with great and info and pics, definately good customer service, gonna order the bits and pieces through him asap once i sort out what i need. I picked up a r34 gtr genuine front bumper yesterday from a mate for $300, the bonnet and east bear front lip fell through and is sold so i missed that dammit :D

Im definately gonna go the lower lip, vspec or east bear one (i think they are the same?) to make the front lower.

have u got little flares on the rear gaurds? is that part of the rear kit?

nice work mate a very interesting spin on the stag. we will have to meet up so i can see it, and you can see ours.

Boz

yeah mate for sure :devil: let me know

Excellent customer service :blush: great to hear that you're getting parts! took me a very long time to get my collection happening.. that’s extremely cheap for a genuine front bumper! nice!

CCubed make both the skirts (the lip and diffuser) for the R34 if you didn’t know.. and yeah on the rear they are flares, genuine Dayz option, i had them on the front aswell but they are made for S2 guards :bunny:

nice 1 brycey. i reckon you have got a few people interested in the conversion now. what u gona do bout that number plate blocking all your cold air to ya fmic?

i trimmed my plate down to fit in the bars recess for plates. not shure if its illegal but it looks the goods and being a yellow plate will blend in good. i kept the state name and trimmed off the black border

post-32337-1199059488_thumb.jpg

defiantly going to mount the plates in the correct position, i think its actually illigal as it sits at the moment :D ... i plan on getting some slim front plates.. just gotta find a number plate extender/mount for it, and think of some plates!

    • That was the first session so not a lot to take from the day. It was low 20s ambient and the coolant had got to 110 (and obviously had some pressure!) so that still needs to be addressed. I haven't downloaded the data yet but will. I had refilled the auto trans with Redline DT6 because it claimed the best viscosity I could find at 100o. It wasn't really long enough to get a good feel for that; while the trans got to 100o in the session it still wasn't shifting crisply as I hoped. I think I'll try a few more sessions before judging. No steering motor overheat but I'd hope not in only 1 session! But finally the suspension; it was night and day over the standard stuff and the car was a couple of seconds quicker on the same crappy tyres, which is a huge difference. I'll stick with that and get some sway bars and a mechanical diff sorted too and see how that all goes together
    • I guess it’s partially a compromise of how my car is used, wanting to be able to switch from drift to grip with track side on-car adjustment. Also partially with the way the knuckles are set there is more static camber but less dynamic camber gain. 
    • OK, so update from the track day on Friday It was a classic "an unfortunate series of events'. There were a few cars around and when i checked my mirror coming out of the fish hook I notice some smoke from the rear of mine. Looked again and it was getting much worse, I figured I'd blown a turbo or something to got off it and pulled off the racing line. However.... since it is a left hairpin into a right kink, I was on the inside of the next corner. There was a car passing me on the left and a big drop off over the ripple strip on the right......and someone had knocked the witch's hat that was on the apex about 1m onto the track. So, between those 3, I decided to mow down the cone and not damage my car/the other car. Right choice, but surprising result.  The car decided the cone was a small pedestrian so it blew the rear bonnet hinges up to protect their head in the upcoming person to car impact....I didn't see that coming and like an airbag deployment it happened super fast. Straight into the pits from there, everything was driving fine but it became clear it was a coolant leak not smoke, it was billowing up onto the windscreen. Onto the trailer and home. I'll do a separate thread about the repair (once I work out what it is ), but the immediate problem was the bonnet wouldn't open because the front was pinched onto the front bar and would not release. Ultimately we unbolted the hinge from the bonnet, pulled it back a little and it released from the front OK. "There's your problem", the top radiator hose had popped off at the radiator.
    • Yeah that looks like great caster, but I'd suggest trying less front camber some time and seeing if it helps with braking without reducing mid corner speed too much
    • I ended up setting the rear 5mm higher than normal to give some clearance.  My plan is to run the least camber I can in the rear which I think with the extra width is going to need to be -1.75 to -2.00° just to get clearance.  Guards have been rolled and pulled as much as they can/I would be wanting to.  front has the Acostal knuckle with the KPI change and the drop etc. So should be okay with the existing settings I have run with AR1s etc Front: Toe total -2mm(1mm out each side) Caster +7.5° Camber -3.8° Ackerman +15°
