It seems that some R33's have sideskirts which are welded on and some R33's have the removable ones where you can remove the screws on the ends of the sideskirts to remove it. Is it possible to remove the sideskirts on the welded ones? I want to get some GTR R33 sideskirts and I have the welded sideskirts :)

usually OEM parts are not fused, so it can be replaced if damaged in case of an accident.

most cars that come from japan have panel damage throughout its life. unless the repairer in japan had Sikaflexed the skirts on. (thats what some bodykit workshops do). Ive even seen bodykit places Liquid-nails bodykits on.

let us know and post some pictures up. Sikaflex can sometimes be melted in heat but usually it just has to be cut with a stanley knife. General Automotive sikaflex comes in black

Ask a windscreen shop for piano wire and handles. It'll take off the urethaned skirts in minutes provided you can actually get the wire around the skirts.

A panel shop once asked us to remove a VE commodore's beaver panel cos it's glued on and they were unsure the first time they worked on one.

    • 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.
