So I bought my R32 a while ago, and my Mum then decided that as she has done Targa Tasmania with Steve from JustJap many years running and because she liked my car so much, she would also buy a GTR... Told her that the R33 might not have cult following of R32 or R34, but value is heaps better etc etc, so at 50+ my mother goes and buys an R33 GTR V-spec, with about 270awkw.. Therefore faster than my R32.. and looks bloody nice too..

Ok first up,

Your R32 GTR is sitting up ridiculously high, please lower it :cool:

I see you have kept the stock BBS wheels, but I'd change them and get a good offset to fill your guards.

What the hell are those wheels you have on your R33 GTR? :D

They look chrome and are terrible + more low on the R33 would be great.

If I may suggest some wheels such as Rays Engineering Wheels or NISMO LMGT's.

Other then that, it is good to see you have the V-Spec / V-Spec II models as they will be a collectors item any time soon.

Factory Brembo's are aways a bonus on the R32 GTR.

What exhaust is that on the R32 GTR? Is it nice a quiet and still give good exhaust flow?

I have a Veilside Oval shape muffler / cat back, I am yet to put on as it needs a few modifications before it can fit on.

So did you end up taking the GTR's for a drive around Mt. Panorama?

:cheers:

Needs paint first, then it will come down a little bit

Thinking about spacers for the BBS's, same result, keep genuine look

The R33 belongs to my mother, I have told her to get rid of them (came on it) But she reckons she likes them :D

Living in Bathurst, it will probably actually be raised a fraction

R32 will be, R33 there were as many v-specs as non.

I might actually look for something different, it is a little bit dull, computer may help though

We live in Bathurst, so are aware of how much time the boys in blue spend up there, but the shots are from McPhillamy, so did have to do a lap

:mad:

guess you can honestly say to people, "my mum's car would beat yours"!

Which can also be counteracted with the fact it is probably quicker than mine too :laugh:

      Did tie rods. Steering now not "springing" back.

      No. GKTech arms have spherical bearings in them. No bushes. You will not need bushes for those arms. The sphericals are a bit of a maintenance nightmare. I have replaced all of mine several times in the 5 or so years I've had them, and I have the arms out regularly to clean and lube the balls. Worth the pain on an R32, because the standard arm design is trash. If you need the camber adjustment, there are other options (than the GKTech ones), although I would still lean towards and prefer the GKTech ones, even with the maintenance load of the sphericals. The caster adjustment is also highly valuable, allowing for setting the car up to drive straight. There are a million options for these, including the GKTech ones. I've had Tein rods on mine for 20 years and the balls are much less trouble in that location. Never given me a moment's pain. All positives, no negatives. I consider them compulsory.

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By silviaz · Posted

      Thanks for all that information I appreciate it. To answer your questions: - Yep that's what I mean. These guys are professional painters to so I must be missing something. It's a bit hard to explain. - With the primer landing on clearcoat, I make sure that the surrounding clearcoat is scuffed to 240 grit as my epoxy primer says that I only need to sand the area to 240 grit. - Yeah so similar to the first question, assuming that the paint landed on the unscuffed clearcoat because I've seen that happen. - Yep I want to prep the surface in that order. Only reason because epoxy primer will protect it from rust and I need that atm with this crappy Sydney weather. I think I was worried about time, if I try to put the filler down but screw it up somehow and I don't have time to sand it off and reapply it then need to put primer later that it might start to rust again so I wanted to apply the primer as quick as possible to not deal with rust.  - I just deleted some answers, I just realised after watching a video and what you said about looking at the data sheet, that I need to read the data sheet on the specific filler I'm using. It's possible now that I put epoxy primer first was a waste of time and need to go to bare metal lol

      I did. I went to a suspension guy and he told me because I don't have adjustable camber arms it's the reason why my car veers towards the left if I take my hands off the wheel but if I drive my other every day car and take my hands off the steering wheel it goes completely straight. I think it's common with Skyline's. In order to fix the problem, I likely need gktech camber arms then nismo bushes since I have poly bushes atm, then a wheel alignment after that. With my car if I take my hands off the steering wheel on a really bumpy road before stopping at a light I have to hold my steering wheel somewhat tight otherwise my car will legit just go completely in the other direction quite quickly and I'll slam into something lol instead of stopping straight. I Believe this YouTuber had the same issue and fixed it with gktech arms. At timestmap 6:05 he talks about how the car doesn't veer anymore after installing these arms.
