there is a place in vic that do re-trims.. you can get leatherette (fake leather is what i'd call it) also known as german leather. But they can apparently do real leather (more expensive) and you can do front and back seats $495... And $45/m for extra material for door trims, parcel shelf, centre console... he also makes handbrake boots i think.. Company is:

Symrna Import Export (Search ebay for seat trims)

0417 052 070

Max Ungun

Also ultimate_auto_trim does same thing (members on here have bought in group buys, search in Group Buys section) and offers similar sorta deals, also on Ebay i might add

Can get options like double stitching, wrinklied, logos, etc at no cost. Time is usually 3wks and he offers fitment if your in Vic so you could prob go to his shop and look at them. I bought Front, Rear, Door Trims off him.

Also i bought centre console, gear, handbrake boots off a place in UK (Gaiter Boots) also on Ebay.. From real leather... top quality product. Fit perfect..

Hope that helps

Yeah i done my r33 at CKT Trimming. After being screwed around by others (PM me for details)

He done my whole interior in tan leather with suede inserts. He does many show cars and his work is top notch.

If you want something similar to mine its around the $6000-$7000 mark. But best to give him a call.

    • There are black hose clamps as well if you care. Plazmaman for example sells some: https://plazmaman.com/product/black-hose-clamps-premium-quality-stainless-breeze/
    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
