mate thats one tidy car, nice buy mate, hows it feel to drive and own a skyline :woot:

soooo much better then the mx-5 i drove for 3 and a half years before it :D

nah i cant knock the little bugger, was such a fun car to drive (all handling/suspension mods).. just, it had the torque of a $29 battery drill. still i loved the go kart feel of it, and being able to smash it through corners at twice the speed limit.

needless to say, after getting the skyline to look how i want it to, the first purchase will be coilovers!

hey man, ahhh yer lol guess the weight on the mx-5 would have made it a nible car and nice around corners, but hey like you said the r33 has much more torque and will be fun to once you make it how you like :banana: ahh, yer good choice with the collies man.. enjoy the car

haha so true bubba so true!

Here's an example.. my turbo upgrade (high mount GT35R, foward facing plenum, GTR cooler/piping/bov's), blew out with a High Energy sump and head off to put oil restrictors in. On the weekend we decided that because the engine is coming out and will be mostly apart.. might aswell throw some spool rods, longnose crank snout and ATI balancer and get it all balanced.. NEVER ENDING SAGA :D

    • Hey mate, really appreciate the help. Have been looking pretty extensively myself and was certain they were retro fitted, but then ended up finding a 4 door with what looks like the same side skirts or at least the closest I’ve seen. The photos from the Offset Kings event at Sunrise 2016. https://fatlace.com/offset-kings-okayama-at-sunrise/
    • Isn't there a PAR engineering gearset that has closer to stock ratios? And they claim they'll do whatever ratios you want.
    • And this is the the thing with a high powered, AWD, heavy car. The engine is easy, the driveline costs just as much as the engine. 🤷‍♂️ Welcome to GTRland. Whatever you think your budget is, double it. Whatever you think your timeline is, triple it.
    • I thought I'd heard rumor of someone that was developing a 6 speed kit to convert the 5 speed box. But maybe I was thinking of the PPG 6 speed sequential? That's about half the price of a car...  
    • I've searched fairly extensively among Japanese websites but found nothing really like those skirts in your photo. The closest I got was Origin Labo side skirts however they look more 'complete' in that they have a finishing piece or tab at the rear of the skirt so it blends into the bodywork, unlike the one in your pic. For that reason I'd say the skirts in your pic could be adapted from another car and they didn't include that tab piece, or those skirts aren't copied from an existing skirt but an original design. Sorry I can't help out in regard to ID'ing/sourcing them
