Sorry! but don't agree. What's so special about the STOCK STANDARD front, with big headlights & grille.

How is it better with this nose piece and better than PJR cars

Anybody catch the car, right at the rear of 2001 Kanagawa Kitagawa on page 6.

The iron mask h/lights & grille with stock bonnet and cut down 3 row grille.

ALSO! anybody else got thoughts as to Iron Mask or Stock front, which is more appealing/sporty etc

Ghostrider,can't find the one you're talking about? Did you see this one? Early model grille and lights,later everything else! Looks ok I think!

I reckon the ironmask fronts are the best looking,but having said that,early fronts with the slat grille,and flares on 'em,like race replicars look fat!

That's the one, but think I get into photo shop and see what I can create as a look. I have pics of my stock PNV and IM. Interesting thought?????

When I first bought my HR30,I planned to slice the nose off the gaurds,and try and adapt an HR31 nose to it.....

Here's a thought,does the iron mask front look better cause it makes them look more like HR31's?   :)  

 :flamed:    flame suit on...

when i was looking for the headlights for mine i got to a point of seeing if i could rig up those parabolic gts-x lights you can get but found the iron masks instead. :kick:

how would those flares go with the RTA over here as they aid in the r32 gtr front brake spacer problems?

I think this looks mean and should be no problem with RTA.

As for R32 brakes, I have 16 x 7's on front and when I put the spacers in to clear the calliper, I'm going to widen the wheels IN, (make a new wider inner rim) an inch, giving me 8's all round and same front track.

Getting back to mean!!! I would like to stay a little STEALTH looking, don't want to attract to much police attention.

Little story for you to consider:

A friend, he is 64 and owns 3 Ford GT's, 1968 XR, 1970 XW phase 2 and 1971 XY phase 3 shaker.

He can drive either of the XR or XW through Sydney at any speed, he has driven the XR at 150 kph in a 60 zone and not a cop to be found, but when in the XY ph3 shaker, cops come out of holes in the ground, hang out of trees, sit up his arse, just hang off the car literally.

It's just the presence the car creates, very similar in our case if a mean streeter.

Just for interest sake, he recently turned down an offer of 1/2 million for the 3.

How many of these would you find having less than 20K genuine each?

I like that idea Ghostrider

Phat,

Just been quoted $160 freight to get those bits to you and as you might guess, I bloody nearly fell off the chair, so I have organised something with a transport company I work for and it might take about a week to get there but it won't cost $160 either.

Will pack it on the weekend and get it organised. Freight might be as much as $NIL, but won't know until after sent.

Will let you know further when I know.

You want it delivered to the office or ????? PM me and let me know.

As for the look, I have a damaged iron mask grille, so playing with it won't be too costly and my main thoughts are the angle of slant on the inside edge on both lights, if same, no problem.

Will post results after photoshop work done.

      r34's love to squeal

      By Nizzy_R34 · Posted

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?

      So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
