haha nah, thats the only pic i had of it, took the numberplate out incase i was pulled over :ermm:

you can see the bottom of the rearbar took a lot of the flame action to it, cause the sedans are a tad longer and i was running a coupe catback it went straight into the corner :P

it took a good flame that rear bar. i was wondering how the flames got to the numberplate lol.

how long did you run your car like that before you decided thats enough?

A few SAU members have a LM Edition.

Besides the colour (Champion Blue) it is just like any other R33 GTR from factory, nothing huge to separate it from the rest to make it special...

The R33 GTR V-Spec didn't have a huge impact, just an Active LSD and a newer ATTESA E-TS Pro all wheel drive system, lower ground clearance in resulting the car weighing 10kg more.

Like the R32 GTR Nismo Editions = Stock GTR with a factory Nismo Bodykit.

The Nismo Bodykit could be bought for base / V-Spec / V-Spec II / N1 models.

V-Spec / V-Spec II's were not much of a big deal but only for the Brembo brakes and 17" BBS wheels.

The price you pay for a V-Spec / V-Spec II / Nismo Edition, you could probably buy the base model and add the Brembo Calipers, Nismo Bodykit and a set of 17" wheels of your liking and still have cash left over...

With the R34 GTR, the big changes came when the N1 was released then the V-Spec II Nur.

The GTR N1's / Nismo 400R / V-Spec II Nur, were the ones with a decent upgrade from factory to separate them from itself.

umm im not sure what the place is called :happy: but i know exactly where it is and been their a few times (its in mailing road near all these antique and 'posh' shops >,<

nah i dont know the original lolly store :happy:

lol

*this thread is now about candy!

:verymad:

Haha!

I will do a little reseach and see if I find anything in Surrey Hills.

Cool!

For anyone interested in quick wiring. Used one of these for wiring up my thermofan controller. Has a LED on the fuse too, so if it blows you can see. Quick easy way of wiring up power etc without splicing etc.

you paid 7 bucks for a $0.50 fuse with light that has a wire soldered onto it?

man I need to start selling this shit on ebay.

haha i paid for the convinience. The led and wire are soldered into the plastic housing not on the prongs ontop of the fuse + the bullet connector.

yeah fuses are 10c a pop, 20c from dickies or repco if you're in a jam. 50c gets you the one with the lights built in.... $1 at the most.

blade fuse (with no led) - $1.00

bullet connector - $3.50

Throw in the wire, rubber cover, led and crimping/soldering the whole lot for extra $3.00

(jaycar prices)

:verymad:

or $7.00 for it all assembled and save myself 15-30mins?

Make me up another one for under $7.00 and ill buy it. Better for me.

yeah I suppose if you're buying electronics retail then it works out. lol it's kinda like if I was to go pay retail price for chocolates, you'd be like "lol n00b"

yeah, started watching the one about old people and then saw that the new episode of Psych had finished downloading so I watched that instead.

its one of my favourite shows. i got all 8 seasons so far. still downloading a few episodes from season 8 actually, my internet connection has slowed down atm so its taking forever :verymad:

    • You're not the first person that's said that about this car lol. A Touring wagon GT in Spark yellow mica would be the dog's danglies 😆 I will keep an eye out for a future purchase for sure. The seats are almost like the OEM Recaros... electric adjustment for fore/aft and tilt movements except reclining.   
    • Yes!! I love these! It's a shame its not the wagon though!   Thank everything that's holy that it doesn't have the interior of the Aussie delivered ones. Those seats are so much nicer.  
    • I'm both sorry and thankful that you do that. 
    • 2001 BE5D Subaru Legacy B4 RSK (3rd gen) EJ208 (pink injector) Twin Turbo 280PS 5-speed manual Full time 4WD "RSK" grade which means all of the above LQC option which means stock rear spoiler  I got it primarily to export to someone outside Japan who was interested. These BE5 Legacy B4 RSKs are going through a bit of a resurgence right know in Japan as they are one of the few cars from the "turbo, manual, RWD/4WD, 280hp gentleman's agreement era" cars that don't require stupid money to purchase. Which for some people might be a good opportunity to get as a base for restoration. If I can't find anyone to purchase it I will certainly be doing that myself over the long term. Why? Because it's properly fast in stock form, handles well enough for a GT sedan, there's still enough aftermarket and (if you can wait a while) genuine part support to make it a restoration candidate (<-- that will only get worse over time so it's a case of do it now or choose get a BL5 4th Gen). Mechanically it's fine, has only 89,200kms on the odometer. The problem with this car is that the body and exterior trims are weathered from at least the last 10 years being parked outdoors. I'm the 3rd owner, the first owner was the one that had it for 14 years and barely drove it, had a low-speed front impact (which didn't damage anything behind the radiator support) and got it fixed and sold it. The 2nd owner put most of the kms on it and parked it outside for the last 10 years, hence the door rubbers have seen better days but if you overlook those cosmetic details, it presents pretty nicely. There is some minor rust on the LH rear wheel arch which I'll have looked at too at some stage.  Also as you'd expect from a car this age, the clear top coat is gone, leaving a satin finish on the roof.  Mechanically it's fine (as you would expect from a car with less than 100K kms) but the steering does feel slightly vague around the centre position at higher speeds. So first on the list is to get the steering rack bushes looked at. There's also the Lock button on the remote which doesn't work, but the Open button does.... it means that the anti-theft system thinks it's always open? It seems like if you open the car and don't start the engine within 3 mins or so the anti-theft kicks in again without any beeps or signals. So if you got to start it after that, it won't. You have to push the open button again. That's how I understand it anyway. Just a small irritation but not a big problem to sort out. There's only one mod, the Wangan SPL muffler. Just a tad louder than stock. It's a really good mod for those who don't want to wake the neighbours but still want to hear a more prominent unequal length header EJ20 sound. Anyway I hope to get all those things done eventually, that is unless someone wanted to import it to their country from Japan (where I live). I'm open for negotiations as I really would like a Skyline... but this will definitely suffice in the meantime 🙂 *Disclaimer: This is how I picked it up from the dealer, minus the stuff on the back seat. I haven't cleaned the engine bay or done a thorough exterior clean, aside from spray painting the wipers. 
    • Wow, even with the Audi logo centre caps. I love OEM wheel mismatches.
