Geez that is f**king ugly!

I think 99% of the time an aftermarket body kit can absolutely ruin the looks of a car as will gay looking rims. IMO it's better to keep stock rims then to go for aftermarkets just ffs, having said that though there are plently of rims out there that will finish a car off nicely if chosen well. Depends what you like really though.....

how sweet is this body kit?... i know its hi profile bt id definetly luv to have tht kit on my r33... any1 know wher i can get one??

I'm going to come out and say that I don't mind this... ...It is always good to see someone try something extreme... ...Innovating even... ...and if it wasn't for people like that we wouldn't have alloy wheels... ...Turbos... ...All wheel drive... ...etc...

Saying that... ...I'd really like to see what the rear of this car looks like... ...I always find that when I'm stuck in traffic it is the rear of cars that really needs to look good... ...Because that seems to be the par of the car that everyone sees more than anything else... ...And I think that's why I don't like fords... ...their asses look shit...

the 90's are well and truly gone but people persist with wide body kits and tri-spoke rims... common people get your act together! the only way that r33 could be worse was if it was painted in chameleon paint.

It is a '90s car after all...

You could put a wide body kit on an EH Holden... ...But it wouldn't suit the style of car... ...Just like a supercharger would look out of place on a Skyline...

Yes... ...The work done to this car is over the top... ...but as a total package it looks fine... ...I doubt this was put together to be driven around as a daily... ...Or even a "weekend warrior"... ...It's really just a rolling billboard and whether or not we like it as a car... ...It's doing its job...

c70 rear quarters and what reminds me of a VK commodore grille <<< for that reason alone it should burn.

Tri spoke Advans were always ugly, it's just lots of people have bad taste.

I mean, you wouldn't decorate your house like Graceland...But Elvis thought it was cool.

    • Ha, I've never pressed the X in all these years incase it removed the notification for all Admins
    • I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.
    • Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!
    • I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 馃槢 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)
    • I get that taking off the head is best but that's a bit much for "just" valve seals. I was just under the impression that one would be able to rotate to TDC and be able to temporarily drop the valve without losing it and effectively having to remove the head to then recover it. I never knew people actually pushed rope into the cylinder to do valve seals hahaha So just to confirm, just going to TDC will not work? In that case I know when I do valve seals I'll maybe just remove the head and do some other things while I'm there, or just wait until I do an engine build.
