Hey guys and gals,

After a bit of thinking i have decided to respray my car. Own a White R33 Series 2 with Black 18 inch rims. Had a bit of an accident in Jan which had the rear end being smashed in and since then i havent really been caring for my car as much as i used to before the accident. Thinking a nice fresh coat of paint and a bodykit will change this.

Im currently sourcing a full Do-Luck bodykit with the drift style boot lip and then off it goes for a respray. Although im always in two worlds about doing things to my car as money is always an object. What i have concidered is as follows:

1) Kit fitted and resprayed in the factory white colour as my car is already white.

2) Kit fitted and respray in Ford Electric Orange and a CF bonnet

Pretty much just asking for opinions now as im going to make a decision once my term deposit matures in april.

Cheers

imo dont go traditional orange, to predictable, instead do a different shade of orange, such as the r35, also, maybe a dark yellow like on the holden monaros, they look porn with black wheels. another colour id like to see more of, british racing green, HOT SEX ON PORN MAGZ

Its easy for a panel shop to do it mate. My bro just had his R34 resprayed, shaved the boot including key hole. They just fill it in and spray over.

would have sink backs by now if the holes were just filled and not welded up underneith

    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
