Yes i feel your pain went through the same process myself

Here are my tips

Look at every possible r33 bodykit on cars, and figure out what you like. Nothing worse then going and getting something installed and then a week later see another r33 with a better looking kit you never saw.

Now another big thing when you know what kit you want, you want to be sure that it will fit and is good quality. Good quality is thin and bendy. Thick ones are crap and just crack or break when moved.

To be sure the kit will fit you should find a body kit shop, i really recommend FIBRE VISION. The may already have a mould for that kit. That will ensure it fits and is good quality, cost less and save time as you wont have to get one shipped or transported (they always break murphys law)

I had my mine installed at fibrevision, very reccommended Bruce is good. Be careful though talk to bruce about the kit work and the painter about the paint work. They work seperately but on the same car if you know what i mean.

If however they dont have the kit you want i would suggest DMD THE IMAGE they have a good range, good price and good quality. Just make sure you specify which series r33 you have and then repeat that as many times until they fully understand.

Talk to a body kit shop on the processes, they always encounter people who buy a kit to have fitted and it wont fit. So be most careful of this to save wasting money and time.

Hope that helps

If you want some ideas on kits let me know

I would have to disagree that "thin and bendy" makes a good bar. A thicker bar allows the bar to be secured firmly to the car and the less flexing the better. I believe there is a misconception between flimsy and shock absorbing. A thin bar in my opinion shows poor quality in the manufacturing process along with cost cutting for greater profit margins.

source the parts seccond hand (forums, ebay etc). it will take time but you will save lots of money, then get them all painted and fitted at the same time by someone like Cowley Smash Repairs or another body work garage.

Talk to Bruce at fibrevision he can fix that but will cost about 250.

I got a do luck front and they made a s1 even though i asked for s2 he did something fits 100% but will cost more.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By MBS206 · Posted

      When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?

      Chris' Toyota Mark ii JZX110

      By Rezz · Posted

      Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.

      If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
