My Skyline Is Finally Back

[Dean_HR31]

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 know your pain and will gleefully acknowledge your happiness.

wing AND buckets!

[Modena]

Nice and clean!

[Dean_HR31]

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....

Very nice, love the styling and the wheel choice is hot. Not too sure of the Maxima (!?) Nissan badge in the front though....

Very similar style to a mate of mine's old R33:

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

get the cf wing man... of you decide you dont like it you can have it painted whenever

[zebra]

Thats tops,

Just needs one of those carbon drift spoilers on the back like joeyjoes and it would be porn

[ashneel]

saw this at the show and shine and the paint work is awesome.

[nzm033]

i like it

where did u get the bonnet lip/nose piece from? Is it carbon?

[Dean_HR31]

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?
