Hi Everyone hope everythings going well with your lines,

Well the time has finally come for me to fix up the body on my skyline before taking it to Regency to finally get my defect removed. I have been looking at all the usual suppliers Monkey Warehouse, DMD Image, VivaGarage etc but only have experience with VivaGarage whose service was fine but the old front bar never quite fitted right.

Has anyone on here recently bought a R33 GTS-T bodykit and if so where did you buy it from and how did it fit etc? Im looking for something a little more stylish I don't like BN, URAS or any of those style kits prefer something with shape yet not as crazy as Veilside. Does anyone have any suggestions I was considering GP Sports as I know someone with a genuine Jap kit so it should fit perfectly but its still a little to BN/URAS for my liking.

I am interested in the Trial style rear/ Genuine Du-Luck Rear and haven't really decided on the front and sideskirts but my stick to my Series 2 Front bar with lower lip and N1 vents but I really have to do something about the rear especially with the new wheels which will be going on once back on the road.

Any feedback on your experiences with suppliers and kit designs would be much appreciated.

Im a big fan of the Do-Luck kit on 33's or even Wise Sports. Or if you want to go really individual you could go AB-FLUG. Got Hyper Rev here if you want to borrow it mate for inspiration.

Damn me for having a sedan, bugger all available!

I've always been told sedan rear bars are different to the coupes, but you might be right Steve, cant see them changing the mounts too much.

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
