im in the middle of styling my r33 gtr

its a series 1 silver and so far i have a carbon bonnet, black nismo lmgt4 wheels

what i wanna do is a 2 tone affect like black roof,and top of gaurds and carbon raised bootlid bascially the whole top half in black

then a nismo front lip,stock gtr skirts and a 400r rear bar

what are your opionons? i want it as JDM as possible

anyone have pics or 2 tone gtrs?

are you serious?

dude GIVE ME your GTR.

okay i'll play nice now.

seriously

your car already IS jdm you jagaloon!

S1 silver with LMgt4???

that sounds PORN

(personally i would revert the carbon bonnet back to stock)

don't do two tone, that will look LDM (Lebanese Domestic Market)

i mean - obviously it's your car

but - raised bonnet on public roads - just to put something in perspective, carbon bonnets are illegal because they don't crumple on impact, they shatter and "shift' on impact..

by raising the bonnet, you're literally aiming the bonnet at your throat should it "cop a good enough wack to the front end"

as for your bodykit ideas - what's wrong with the body you already have? what's wrong with the original lines of the car?

sorry if i come off rude but from your description it sounds absolutely gorgeous

if it looks anything like this minus the bodykit then i would say it looks "JDM as possible"

but - my favourite all time "JDM" gtr has got to be the red one in the wangan midnight tune series. so plain. so BEASTLY.

please don't touch your car. leave it :P

or get coilovers

can we please see a pic of your car??

i hate gtrs with body kits well after market ones they just dont look right.

and whats with parking the car in a ditch or angled down a driveway is that to make it look low?

but pistol pete is spot on make your car look like that your all set!

i hate gtrs with body kits well after market ones they just dont look right.

/pimp.

(dont tell ANYONE that i said this but in a retro kinda way - i kinda like this now... it's ALWAYS made me throw up... buttttttt... i think it's look kinda cool being driven by some japanese dude wearing stonewash jeans, white tshirt and black leather jacket. and the guy has to ALWAYS smoke HARD cigarettes too.

I agree with the bit on aftermarket kit looks like shit. I reckon the only thing to do is to have a hellaflush fitment and that'll be "JDM" enough. But I dont understand how can people driving around daily in that kinda fitment though. The stock GTR looks good as it is but the offsets of LMGT4 doesnt seem flush with the guards. Mine's sitting a lil in the guard with +12 or +15 offset.

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
