both bumpers are in pretty shit shape, I'm gonna throw the factory bumpers on, from my project Ceffy

IMO these look better anyway, with the two vents to the side, rather than one big opening.

Nooo. I painted up the other one today in Nissan 362 (crystal/arctic white), looks good painted white.

i think it'll look better with an auto trans fluid cooler off to the side :P, the other one is also longer at the lip and flares out more. :)

Halfway through manual swap.

Now has black interior, the chord type stuff called "modern" in the brochures

Series 2/3 taillights fitted.

Pending hubs and brakes before it gets the R33 GTR 17"s on.

Just wish it was going, for skids, cruising and new job :thumbsup:

Nic - looking buttery man, can't wait to see it with the S3 bumper :woot:

word of advice but - i see you have the same "door bump protectors" that i have - the white strips that run along the centre of the the doors... that are no longer "white" as they are turning that funny "poo / pink" colour

^^^this stuff here - from bunnings and about $6 for a whole box... steel wool (mild steel)

pinch a bit off, dunk it in some water, and scrub away - don't go too rough though!!! the product will work it's own magic :laugh:

gets them looking brand new like mine :) (these bump strips were the fkn BANE of my existence till a few months ago!!!)

I used to get soooooooooooo annoyed cos my car would be that "fresH" arctic white with mirror like paint - but those strips would forever be this orangey bore water stained pinkish brown yuckyuck.

so get some and get that bit clean! it changes the look of the whole car - trust me! :D

Thanks dude....yeah they're alot worse than what they look like in this pic....they look atleast close to the paint because of the bright work light but in the flesh they're turning yellow, badly. I was thinking of painting them black, to match the strips (on the same level) on the bumpers...but will try that first.

Yeah I had a slight finger malfunction there.

My bad.

Nic got the engine from KYP, without the loom. Which should kinda NOT happen considering the computer needs to go with the engine.

f**kers.

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
