Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

For those who heard my project plans a few months back the car has now been in the workshop for the past two weeks and thought I'd put up some pics to show you the progress.

Parts being used:

GTR Front Bar to fit GTS (Jetspeed)

400R Rear Bar (Jetspeed)

Do Luck Skirts (PSI Parts)

Wide Vented Front Guards (PSI Parts)

Wide Rear Guards (PSI Parts)

C/F Bonnet (Unknown)

C/F Duck Wing (PSI Parts)

C/F Diffuser Tray (PSI Parts)

C/F Front Lip (PSI Parts)

GTR Front Indicators (Kudosmotorsport)

Clear Side Indicators (eBay)

Aerocatch Pins (VSport)

Basically the car is having a widebody fitted with carbon accessories and there will be a full colour change but you'll have to follow this thread to see the end result. The rims are currently being ordered Volks SF Challenge 18x10 +10 front and rears being a GTS-4 didnt want staggered rims.

If you need any parts for a R33 I'd recommend speaking to Shane at PSI Parts top bloke and hasn't let me down on any of these parts all top condition especially on all c/f parts. Delivery or Pickup available in Dandenong

Bodywork being done by Phatt Audio Concepts in Mordialloc, thanks to all the boys slaving away there to get this done before summer, for those interested check out www.nsyane.tv and watch the videos on their bodywork and audio installations and diy installations. Everything from old school muscle cars, jap imports to euro and currently the Holden Alphabet car made up from VX VY VZ Avalanche, Maloo parts.

This is when the wheel arches have been plasma cut to allow for bigger rims to fit in no scrubbing

Yeh he said he was going to send it to me when I picked it up, but havnt received it, but yeh he said standard brackets are super low so gave me sum metals strips to make my own, I may mould it into the rear bar as ines got a 400r rear bar. Will see how it goes as thats like the last add-on feature

not putting shit on your car man as i think its gona turn out pretty good but its not realy wide body, will be same width as a gtr and my concern is that the diffuser will look shite on a 400r rear bar, diffuser is made to suit a standard bar, to my knowledge 400r bar already sits lower

best of luck with everything tho

    • Talking about deliveries  I have one on the way from MX5 Mania already, only for a little added noise really  Plus I'm waiting on Super Cheap for every oil, fluid, filter that goes in it, and some new plugs for it as well, because why not After that is all finished it's off to MX5 Mania for the ECUTEK, mainly because I want the rev match for when I'm racing to work or the local Coles shopping centre 🤪
    • Just for clarity, no adaptors are required for the front conversion. 350Z Brembos & rotors fit on S13/14/15 and R32/33 (GTS-t/R) by just drilling the bolt hole to 14mm (and using R34 GT-t/R caliper bolts as the 350Z ones are too long). R34 GT-t/GT-R will be full bolt on as they're already 14mm (however still requiring R34 GT-t/R caliper bolts).
    • The ATTKD and similar kits are a good thing for street and light track use like Dose is saying. I think they are good value as they replace everything.  Rob's suggestion of upgrading standard parts can absolutely work as these cars came with reasonable brakes, you just have to consider how all the parts add up if you end up doing brake lines, caliper rebuild, rotors as well. The problem with the 350z kits are the same....adapters look cheap but then depending on the caliper health you might still end up with having to do all those parts anyway.
    • Yeah just space it out if you need to, those shock bodies are way bigger than standard. The shock only acts as a shock on r series chassis so its exact location is not important
    • I don't know the answer with a 34, but for sure the standard bumper location is the limiting factor with a 32, that is where the larger diameter tyres I was trying to run were rubbing (noting I had already rolled the guard lip)
