Gud dai People,

Names Elle, just joint todai. I own a 97 R33 which i imported about 7months ago.

Im down in adelaide, and enjoy cruising around and working on my car. fortionatly

i still got lots to learn, iv just decided im goin to start on mods for my car, starting

with Luks then power. Any iideas and tips wud be appreciated. also if you got any

parts for sale let me know via email [email protected] Luking forward too

getting to know every1 and learning new things !! :thumbsup:

ey welcome, ur looking for exterior mods? Best to start with the body kits. If you look around forum you can find good cheap ones. Once u got them go for rims, if u want, tint windows and little things like Aftermarket side mirrors. Once you have everything arrange for paint job. Get the paint yourself like i did i paid 160 for 5Litres and then try find someone on the forum in SA who can do the labour and spray the car. i got my whole car painted for $600 off a friend in preston (melbourne), too bad you live SA.

Thanx for the advice, so far been shopping around for a kit, but my pickyness aint exactly helping, that and the fact that i cant find a top secret rear bar..... mite have to give up on that idea :) otherwise everything seems to be comming together pretty well.. just gotta find the time to get it all together. Where do i find paint?? and how do i find my color code?? please to meet you btw :)

    • No updates on the car but figured I'd share a nice outing. All the recent work paid off and I got it all together and out the shed for a car based pre-wedding celebration for a good mate of mine. Pretty casual cruise through the hills to a pub for lunch then out for some go-karting at The Bend. Headed down to Myponga for the night We stopped in at the reservoir before heading out down to the coast for lunch via the dam  By the end of the weekend away I covered 350km and the 32 generally behaved its self. A good Shake down after being apart before the Track day in a few weeks  
    • The front prop shaft from my GTR had very notchy unis, which obviously needed replacement but unfortunately uses the (usually) non-replaceable (staked) type.     A new shaft is something like $2K plus shipping from Japan.   I wouldn't even bother asking the local Nissan spares dept.     Rang Hardy Spicer but no go, which surprised me a little.     There's a place over Dandenong way that would make me a 'performance' shaft but un-necessary in my situation.   They claimed to be getting the equipment in to replace staked unis but couldn't give me a timeframe.   Anyway, long story short, found a place to do the work just 5 mins from me: https://knoxdriveshafts.com.au $420 (cash) and about a week later I have my driveshaft back.   Price includes balancing. Owner is a one man band working out of a shed in his backyard but from what I could see he's very well setup with some expensive equipment.  
    • Thanks. That's what I was after. One of the kits, the o-ring side is too big diameter. The other kit is a plate with a o-ring to seal and the hose connection offset.
    • oops that seems much easier lol. 
    • Are you using the factory rail?  Is there any reason you don't want to use one of the two you already have, they don't have to attach to the fuel rail directly.  If you 100% must have a FPR that directly bolts to the fuel rail, you could get a Radium setup. I use a radium fuel rail and the direct mount regulator, it is quite a sexy setup.
