Widebody Build R33

[ShyBoi]

Almost there, just have to fit sideskirts on Monday, then fit the wheels to give it the stance.

Colour is a bit trippy depending on daylight and night lights in the workshop...

Will post pics once it rolls out to the street

Best angle shot for the car

The Phatt Guards

At midnight under factory lights its gold...ewww

Under normal daylight in the factory...different?

Have you flared your rear guards yet? You cannot say it's a widebody until the rear and fronts are proportionally flared...also, to give it the fat look, you have to get a GTR spec bonnet and GTR spec front bar...all this adds to the new fat look.

Your colour is unique mate...I call it the Caramel colour! lol Nice!! I wish you chose the GOLD look ....actually looks nicer in my opinion!

[ShyBoi]

Nuh this isnt the widebody this is a GTR look atm, later I'll be doing super widebody like the track cars....this is just the build thread leading to it

[On Edge]

looking nice cant wait to see it with some wide wheels

[GTScotT]

cant wait to see the 400r+diffuser combo, im itching for a diffuser on mine!

[ShyBoi]

Diffuser will be an issue due to clearance under the 400r rear bar being so low, so may only be attached on show days not for daily driving

Hey mate...I see....guess you're going to turn it to a track-car only then...cannot wait to see how it turns out...keep us posted!

Hey mate...I gotta give up here mate...cannot help you there...suggest you post a new thread in the suspension or drivetrain section.

With my GTS4 it came with 5 stud wheel conversion already done - I just turboed it and that was it. Not to demotivate you, be honest mate, after all that hard work...looking back, I think it was cheaper to just go and buy a GTR.

However, if you can build a GTS4-T into a monster then it just adds to the fun!

As you know I now have two cars, a GTR and a GTS4-T - I gotta say, I do have a soft spot for my GTS4-T as it was with it that I had spent so much time and money.

Go for it buddy!

Nuh after this build I'll be heading towards and Audi S3...this is just my toy project to get it out of my system as I always wanted to build a car.

As for 5 stud conversion already worked it out I just need a set of HNR32 or BNR32/33/34 knuckles front hubs and Im all good from there.

Dnt worry I realised I could buy either a Nur or N1 engine from Just Jap and have dropped the engine in with the amount I've spent so far...but I did bodywork...so eh its already been done. As I said I'd have always bought a GTR but I wudnt have been able to drive in for 3 years cause I'm on my P's still til next August...

Hi Daniel - haven't been on here for a while...great to see your car has been finished and is now on the road...looks good buddy...

The colour is (as I had predicted) - changing a bit, getting darker which is tough as it was too yellowy at the start for my liking - looks really good mate.

Love everything about it - except for the front bar - I suggest you get a Do-Luck front bar and it would complete the look nicely.

Looking good mate - so what's next?
