Hey guys,

FML Story: Last night I was leaving Crown with a couple of mates and as I'm reversing out of my spot one of my mates in the back asked me a question. I look in the mirror and answer him and clip one of those concrete pole things..Don't know how so much damage could have been caused by going like 2km/h..

Sucks when my first accident ever is something so stupid that could have been avoided by paying more attention...only myself to blame.

Anyways, now I need just a stock R33 front bar, drivers side front panel and a drivers side headlight so if anyone is wrecking an r33 or has these parts for sale please pm me. I'm in the Eastern suburbs.

Also, some good panel beater recommendations would be handy. I have done a search on this and found a lot of recommendations for DT Panels so i'll probably hit them up.

Cheers guys.

hey chris, did the headlight actually come out and smash? or is it just some bracket broken that holds it?, as others said you should be able to find the parts pretty easy and get Vu to spray em and fit em, if need be.

look on the bright side, your front bar was needing a respray anyway.

Yeah just the plastic bracket thing broke. I'm not taking it to Vu, he didn't reply to my email yesterday and I wanted it fixed asap so I took it to a place near my house with a decent name. Should be getting it back on Friday...

And yes, it did need a respray so should look good at the end of it all

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
