Wassup??

I own a two tone r33, blue over grey, and im pretty stranded on ideas for the outside of my car? id kinda like to keep the two tone effect to be a little different, so if anyone has some pics of their silver/grey and blue/grey r33s, can you please post some up????

Or even some of r33s in the stock blue without the grey trim?

Thanks a lot guys!!!!!!!!!!!

Go the two tone! :D

Nothing really inspiring I can post though... Mine before a front mount install saw the number plate support get hacked out of the front bar. The standard bar is in fairly ordinary shape paint wise, so I'm thinking I might just put a GTR style bar and have the bottom lip part of the bar painted in the dark grey with the rest silver... I dunno if it'd look wierd though :whistling:

Trent, what kind of front bar is that? i can see that its a series 2 bar, but im guessing thats an aftermarket lip?? where did you source it from??

My car looks exactly like yours sauce! except of course blue/grey and i still have the series 1 front bar, not the mspec version. same style of wheels, mine are stern 17s in a 5 spoke.

also very keen to see some pics of your car yo-yo :D

lol calm down guys, was nothing special, just different because I kept the two tone.

It was only a humble n/a r33 but it was my very first car and I loved it to bits! Nothin beats the feeling of your first car

Spewing though... I had much betta pics before, can't find them anywhere :ninja:

I changed the standard s1 frontbar for a Type m bar, added 400R sideskirts and a custom rear lip

I had before and after photos of the R33 that really highlighted the difference with and without a kit.

And before you rag on me about that R34 wing I'll have you know it's already been REMOVED :(

I really dig that front bar Trent, whereabouts did you find it??

It would be really Good to see some before + after pics of your car yo-yo??

Mate, had a whole heap of them on another computer, but lost somewhere and can't seem to find.

But even though the changes were subtle they made a big impact when looking at the before and after shots...

car looked wider, lower and more aggressive.

Even though the body kit pieces were separate styles it all flowed together

Had an interesting idea just before. Saw a white r33 kicking around earlier with a series 2 sedan front bar on it. (They look basically the same as the series 2 coupe front bar, just different style indicators. You guys reckon that a series 2 front bar from a sedan would look good in blue/grey?? i think it wouldnt be too bad?? Have you ever seen anything like that?

      Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention

      So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34

      From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
