the wheels look really really good. the right hieght and the colour code nuts look good.

i agree with the others about the mesh stuff and over done front bar. cant go wrong with factory gtst or gtr kit. IMO

your car looks clean enough to eat off. :)

Don't listen to 'em!

Love the 400r frontbar. Again black out the mesh to suit the rest of the car.

I agree though that with just the frontbar and stock kit don't go together, either replace with a more subtle front bar OR I'd add 400r sideskirts and N1 rear pods to complete the look.

I'd also look at replacing the rear spoiler with one of those Stealth wings that have an LED light incorporated into it.

*sigh* I miss my old 33 :)

nice choice of rims

how well do they sit in the guards?!?!

i'm looking for 18" meisters but not sure whats the lowest offset to go with a r33 gts-t with coilovers

at 18 x 9.5 + 30 the rims stick out about 10mm but with 245's streched on and stiff coilovers she's all good...

i did roll the guards a little tho

blacking the mesh is on the "to-do"

i have thought about changing the rest of the kit... but the car is impracticle enough as it is :)

400r bar sits LOW and with the car dumped on its ass even lower...

i like the 400r skirts but not the pods.... am thinkin bout going the whole kit but am very happy with the look of it how it is...

stealth wing is also on the way...... but not an led one

Not bad, but i prefer ur old ones. How much did they cost you?

hha are you on drugs... cheap weak heavy chinese rims vs nice strong lightish jap quality..... SSR FTW...

joe lose the wheels nuts though.... get some titanium or black ones. other than that its a huge improvement.

When you wanna sell up ill be waiting (but I need those nuts too)

Cheers lol

Oh P.S andru seriously you would know you cant fit much wider wheels under the guards with deeper dish than that with that particular wheel, why comment on the offset if it wouldnt happen? You'd need a wide body.

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!

      OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
