From what i've read, and this was quite a while ago, having the Skyline letters on the rear light up was a factory option, along with the flare and umbrella?

I'm pretty sure of the letters and the flare, not sure if the umbrella was something as well?

i think it was a factory option, but lots of people have done it themselves too, a guy I know in Sydney did it to his black R33, looks awesome :)

i thought the flare was standard, just most have been lost by now?? dunno..

as for the brolly (lol ..how bizarre is that?? anyway..) they came with GTIR's, but i don't know about Skylines..

spotted: Pauls yellow R32 gunning through the intersection on Melrose Dr tonight at about 9:30, came from hindmarsh and turned right onto Melrose(it may have been the other yellow R32 but i think it was Pauls). then at the other side of the lights a silver R33(i think s2)

and finally on Namatjira dr. a red R33 came past me (just after 9:30)

not a bad few spots in less than 5mins.

i may have been the silver one, i went down hindmarsh to goodberry's at about 9.30, was parked in the carpark across the road (in the markets carpark) and saw two other R33s (both S1) parked in there.

Also saw a red r33 at Tony Farrugia Bodyworks thismorning.

(didn't look smashed up)

SPOTTED: Amaru & Aurora (minus their beasty cars) & couple of other blokes out da front of Ali Baba on Saturday arvo just chillin. Don't know you blokes too well so woulda felt like a nugget bein a random and just saying hi. More of a Skyline owners spotting than actual skylines.

Also: Last week in Dickson right opposite Jimmy's restaurant an absolutely awesome yellow widebodied R33 GTST...looked like Kakimoto style...Anyone know this beast? It looks so tough in the flesh!

    • The downside of this is when you try to track the car, as soon as you hit ABS you get introduced to a unbled system. I want to avoid this. I do not want to bleed/flush/jack up the car twice just to bleed the f**kin car.
    • But again, the engineers said your cast aluminium would be fine based on the load that would be stretching that section. Same load stretching the bolts in a flex (not the twist), with a much smaller cross sectional area than the original part you've broken. It's why you'd need to be using higher strength bolts, but that's just making up for the strength you lose with less area...
    • I am truly amazed someone on this planet was able to cycle the pump using a scan tool. I've always ghetto cycled them on Nissan 90s shit boxes by slamming the brakes and pulling the handbrake to agitate the rear wheels enough to cause a speed difference
    • I didn't actually try it at the time but a Launch X431 with the appropriate software licenses/upsell will have the ABS bleed function. The Consult II you can still find some old sets of equipment but they're really, really expensive:   
    • Well I'll start by saying I'm not an engineer. I am going to go with the KiwiCNC ones.  They are made of 7050 alloy have good fillets and radius.  The material alone is in the order of double the strength and fatigue resistance - Those bolts, once torqued correctly place most of the load at the flat face of the mating surface - the 'stretch' you're talking about through torqueing them up would be far more than the extra stretch 'load' placed on them from a steering input or bump. (in my opinion) so I doubt they would flinch.    - but again "not an engineer".      oh and I don't think stitch welding 7050 is a good idea, likely just weaken the material (from what I read)
