Hey guys, im just new to the site. Bought my R33 GTS-t last week. So firstly i would like to say hi to everyone :D

I live down south and i parked in a collonades carpark and went to far into the cement block on the carpark >.< theres a small crack in the front bumper that i have just covered with black tape for now. Does anyone know any good fibreglasses in the southern area that they would recommend?

Thanks, Nathan.

Welcome to SAU mate.....i personally wont really worry about that little crack...let me ask is it a stock front bar or aftermarket.....also be very careful with speed humps, gutters etc while parking and stuff.....

It's an M spec front bumper. and it has been scraping quite a bit, the bumper looks frail as its starting to splice and splinter :S is there anyway to heighten the car a small bit because a new bumper would be quite expensive. its exactly 100mm off the ground.

if it's just a stock bar then your ride is too low! get some standard springs or something

Yeah its not a stock bar, im affraid if i put stock springs on it, is going to look like crap. Any other suggestions? maybe i could get a new front bumper thats a bit higher?

Sweet as man, PM sent. I think i saw that 180 @ the castle plaza - westlakes cruise.

Does your shop have a leather cover (thing that goes around gear stick, not sure what its called :D) mines a bit torn.

Thanks!

    • Pretty sure it is a common fault. I believe this is the only part you need, but don't quote me as I don't have a V36.  I also believe it is a bit of a pain to change and the device needs to be encoded to the car once it is replaced, so may need someone with the right tools. Buy Genuine Nissan 48700JF00D (48700-JF00D) Lock Set-Steering. Prices, fast shipping, photos, weight - Amayama
    • Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.
    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
