Hey guys,

Just thought id share my happiness of my car finally being back on the road :)

Basically almost 2 years ago my my forged engine unexpectedly blew up most likely due to a Bee R Rev Limiter I had installed. Since then the car was at Created Motorsports getting a forged rebuild done with a change of turbo - HKS 25-40 and a few additions including an alluminium radiator, engine oil cooler & splitfire coilpacks. The car has now been run in and made a strong/responsive 262kws at the wheels which is loads of fun for a street/track drift car.

Since the car was off the road for over a year i got a little excited and thought id bring it back with a bang. So i got rid of the black & painted it Ferarri red as ive never seen a red r33 before & thought it would go much better with the black works :). The paint job was done by Kila Body Works who did a fantastic job.

Anyway i wont continue draining your lives, hope you like the pics.

i love this car :) to appreciate it you really have to hear the screamer... normally i dont like them, but deans sounds unbeleivable!

congrats on a clean car dean! i know you've been lovin it!

Thanks guys.

Yeah its awesome havin it back. I had little fun bangers for the time being while the car was off the road to keep me occupied but wasnt the same. Was the main reason why i took the car to the sandown drift practise day... so i could get the feel of the car again. I got a little too used to the R31's & VN's while it was gone lol.

As for the wing, yes thats a definate! & a nice pair of red or black recaro's would be awesome.

What do you guys think about a carbon fibre rear stealth wing on my car like hamish's? Im trying to decide whether to go for the carbon fibre one to suit the bonnet or just get a fibre glass one & colour code it to the car... Think ill do some photoshop work to decide.... :P

Heres a couple more decent shots...

Oh and the bonnet isnt carbon fibre... im waiting to find the right one. Thats why i didnt bother painting it and left it black for the time being.

very nice hopefully i'll be able to afford similar rims as well! i love meisters!

ever thought about doing carbon fibre boot with the drift lip ?

saw a white evo 6 the other night with black boot and wing blade looked good.

and if it's ok could i get the specs of the rims i.e. width and offset?

    • I've been building a 26/30 for a few years now. I've had the head built with all the good stuff. I had a 32 gtr but blew it up and yes its all going into a vl but im looking for some advice from some RB nuts on pros and cons on putting a 26 head on a 30 bottom end is it worth it Works are as follows Head -Extensive porting 1mm oversized supertech valves Supertech double springs Supertech valve guides Supertech titanium retainers Tomei solid lifters Tomei 270 x 10.25 cams Head drain Bottom end series 2 rb30 block Cp ceramic coated pistons Eagle rods Romac balancer Oil restrictions  O ringed blah blah spent a fortune And will get a girdle because the 30s arent used to handling that much rpm Nitto billet oil pump Hypertune plenum 6boost mani Refurbed astra pump thats the cover for it in the boot I did have a precision 6262 but sold it because drag car life. Currently building the ass end full 4 link floater rear end with a 2 speed  But the dilemma i have is my mate rekens I should just stick with the 30 head for reliability. Has any one had any issues with mounting the 26 head ie compression blowing gaskets etc. Just looking for some advice from people who have gone down this route. Here's some photos. Blew the oil pump in the gtr and decided to rip the motor out at the time and do a full build only to find it had been a repairable write off so went down this path.

    • lol no cats running str pipes … might put the high flow back on but I suspect it might effect my ignition timing a bit. 
    • That looks a bit like yellowing to me. If the rear bar was looking like that from rich idle, I'd ask the question, do you have a catalytic converter fitted, and fully working?
    • Oh yeah gets really bad down here. I’ll have to upgrade the heater and wind screen wipers as well for optimal performance.
