my 31 silhouette is wearing some 17 inch, 4 stud watanabe rs-8's

i got the dayz front bumper on my stagea with the carbon filler bit too, and r34 brakes (which are quite hard to find these days)

oh, and my staega came from the factory with a clutch pedal :)

Mines just got a HKS EDA (electronic drag adaptor) and a TSC, but also a mystery Kansai Service box with a toogle switch on it that seems to plug into the G sensor.

Both my R32 and R33 have the electric front air dam that drops down from under the front bumper. The R32 is wired to be down at all times unless I need to lift it to gain ground clearance a bad driveway etc.

I will set the R33 one up in the same manor

My r32 has this too! Never knew r33's came with it?

Car also came with an outline of an air purifier on the parcel shelf and some fan setting buttons near the steering wheel. Guess it was ripped out in Japan before i got it.

If you are used to BMWs this may seem rare, but it is a standard feature on many japanese cars, because they are not wired by europeans...... :ermm:

I have a Nismo Fibreglass intercooler air guide (Which Just Jap photographed to see how it all fitted etc)

Genuine N1 front vents and side skirts,

Coilpack cover has "powered by Nismo 24 Valve" or similar written on it.

Not a rare part but certainly creates some speculation... Roof has been repaired in 2 spots about 15x10cm directly above the doors exactly the same spot on both sides, also appears to be the same place as where the light bar sat on the pace car used in Aus (and cop cars in Japan..) also has had bonnet pins, and 2 harnesses, but stock suspension and still original ECU and no other repair work

You're the only other person i know with that plate, i also have it:

i dont know if these are rare or not but meh, deal with it

factory pioneer sound system with factory cd stacker in the boot

factory fog light switch on the center console

factory "type m" sticker on the boot

R33 Gts-t S2 in Nismo red! dont see many in that colour, and my plates are rare too, think thats it :D

Mine is Nismo Red as well (Its actually called "Super Clear Red II" or something), Ive only ever seen 1 other in the 10 years Ive owned my 33, plenty of maroon ones though

And white LMGT2 Rims.......Now minus wheel caps Grrrrrrrrrrrrr, not unusual but a little rare

    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
