yeah predator, i was thinking do the paint/body and leave it, sell it

no point putting too much more into it, but if i do ill be keeping the car for another couple of years

but id much prefer a better platform or more so, not lose too much money when selling the R33

the bonnet if u looked closely was pretty shocking, i had these weird stains on it that were under the gloss and under fluro light u can see some shocking shades :S

Well as far as my mods go I'm picking up my C's short shift kit tomorrow....

Then in a couple months time go PowerFC + hand controller + boost control kit... already used to the current power....

err..yes jet.. you will have the fastest.

as long as you don't throw a piston or something no, you won't have to worry about anybody getting anything remotely close to 400rwkw anytime soon :D

Jack: yours will go even more like stink then, scary!

There just is something about that GTR powerslide.. was admiring it Saturday from behind :D

Mine is back to stock, and while it hasn't got any power now :( it just feels "more complete" right across the range like the stock ECU isn't playing "catchup". I'm thnking that is what a proper ECU properly installed must be like, like a came out of the factory with XXX kw

ha - i'm 27 on Saturday... makes u realise cars can't hold u too back in life. I guess at 21 i woula been all go go go but i was still at uni then where life was cheap :D Gotta think about boring stuff like buying a house myself pretty soon b4 it all gets too expensive.

hmm.. off track.. oops, this thread is interesting - don't want it closed

anybody else got car plans wanna jump in the thread ?? :(

argh, when i was running the stock ecu with all the gear off bar the intercooler the power was all over the place through out the rev range

huge flat spots here and there, was frustrating at times

but it feels good to be dead stock in the morning passing your EPA, then getting your hands into it and putting every back on my 7pm that night instantly getting your power back

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
