hey, im lookin at gettin a kit for my r33 series one...

But i have only come across two places so far

1 ) Viva Garage, fair prices but very limited selection

2 ) Autostyling on main north rd, great selection of kits, but 2500 painted and fitted is harsh

anyone know of anymore places? ive already checked the workshop links on the forum, and none of them listed seem to do cosmetic mods

please feel free to put up some pics of your bodykits, as i still need ideas :D

well i am getting my kit from someone who got it from viva garage.......the kits that viva have are limited in selection but they hold some of the good stuff......not a lot of kits do suit the r33's....i have a s1 and i am getting TVRS front and BN sides and rear....which is what i was after....i guess it makes a bit of a difference when you have an idea on what you want your car to look like....

great.....now thats great lol....ahh well i am picking it up for cheap so a wee bit of rework wont hurt.....people also said that about speed dreams back in the days and i had no probs with their stuff

R33 DO-LUCK looks sexc source it from DMD Garage in QLD they will send it down for you well worth it and perfect fit. go to google and type in DMD image and you will find their website =] but yea do-luck r33 ftw!

2500 painted and fitted is a good price! remember these kits will need a lot of work to look good. I went full kit,carbon bonnet,ganadors mirrors and gtr wing and it makes the line look a lot better then stock but each to their own

Do your self a favour and pump and lip the gaurds the stock gaurds make the r33 look ugly and like a 380 lol

all kits available locally are pieces of crap quality-wise, and will cost AT LEAST $2,500 painted and fitted. When I got a kit for my S15 it cost $1,300 to paint and fit.

Try and get a plastic or resin kit - fibreglass just sucks.

do yourself a favour and get a stock m spec kit....dont ruin a nice car with a gay kit.

i agree! ever since i got rid of my bn sides, rear and trust front and put it all back to standard i never loved my car more! but that's my preference

otherwise here's the only kit i would put on a r33! if i remember a while back there was a white r33 called gtnik from WA who had this kit!

agreed!!!

sideskirts, rear pods, front bar + lip and your laughing.

i wouldnt reccomend autostyling and i doubt many others on this forum will.

Vivagarage are nice folk but yea...alot of their kits need rework and are hardly a perfect fit.

Wreckers / Ebay / Trader section ftw. Go down to doyle crash and get them to respray your seccond hand kit and fit it, theyl match the colors pretty much perfect and you wont end up paying too much considering the quality of work done!

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
