:worship: Hi Guys and Girls.....

How are we??? i am new to this skyline room so please help me out...... I bought a Bodykit for my R33 Skyline GTS-T1994....... But i can't find any place in melbourne who can install and paint this bodykit to my car..... Can you guys tell me any good place ...........Any help will be highly appreciated..... I livein Bacchus Marsh( vic) .......................One thing more i want to discuss with you guys...... I am afraid that i bought a wrong front bumper for my car as my car's front is changed to series-2 but my car is Series-1............... And i think i bought the front bumper to fit on series-1...................... Do you guys think that i can still put on the bumper on my car or not????? Thanks guys.................

hey mate

i got a car currently at team jetspeed, they are located in clayton, do a google and you will find there details

they are costly but the quality of the work is among the best

ive had my previous 2 cars go through them for bodykits and i will recommend them to anyone.

if you wanna save a bit of coin dt pannels in springvale do good work as well

however a workshop will do its best to fit the bodykit up as well as they can but all comes down to the quality of bars you have purchased

also i have a series 2 skyline with an aftermarket series 1 bar and it fitted up nicly, just pokes out 1mm under the headlight which u cannot see anyways cos if the slight difference in curve to front end between the two cars

hope this helps you out

Hi Guys,

Thanks very much for your replies and help.......... I buzz this Jetspeed in Clayton and this lady on phone quoted me $1300 to install and paint the bodykit but she said this quote doesn't include any modification if they have to do to fit the bodykit,,,,,,,,,,, i told her about the story of my front bar that how my car's front is Series-2 and i bought the front bar for series-1................. She asked me about the name of the front bar and i told her its TRUST FRONT BUMPER BAR for SKYLINE R33 and she said that bar will not fit my car ............. i am surprised as you guys told me in your replies that one of u's actullay got Series-1 bar on Series-2 skyline.........I think she got no idea about the situation and just making it up so i have to buy another front bar from her as she told me that she also got TRUST BAR for Series-2 skyline..... I don't know what to do ........but i don't want to buy another front bar as this one cost me $500 by itself......... any help guys.............. sorry to bother u's again............thanks :worship:

hey mate picked up my car from there today fully painted and fitted, yes they are pretty costly but they do a top job...i did provide a side skirt that they dont provide/source and they had a few headaches to fit it up, but they got it on looking very good, i actually went down half way during the process to see how the side skirts would line up (as i was unsure myself because of random supplier i havent bought of previously) and they had to shave of lots of the side skirt to get it on so it looks good.

i do have a series 1 aftermarket front bar on my series 2...TOP SECRET is a series 1 front bar...now when i bought it the guy who fits it couldnt guarentee perfect fitment but i liked the bar so i went through with it, yes it did fit however it pokes out 1-2mm near the headlight due to the difference in front end shape between the 2 models.

i had a mate who used to own a series 2 r33 with a TRUST front bar, and he had the same 1-2mm poking out round the headlights (but tbh u can hardly see it)

but as a business they want whatever car that comes in, to go out with the highest quality standard of work, so thats why they might have seemd a bit not willing to fit what you have there, but the answer to your question is, yes it will fit your car however how good it sits on the car is a different question, if i were you i would go down and speak to them in person let them see the bar and they can tell how it will line up etc

thanks very much mate for your reply and advice........... Just need to know one more thing that how much you paid to get your bodykit fitted and painted..............I will go there sometime during this week with my bodykit .................. and talk to the guys who actually fits it........thanks anyway mate,,,,,,,,,,,,,, cheers

don't bother with jetspeed

go DT panels if you've got a budget - go micolour if you want a high quality job, but... firstly..

where did you get the bodykit from?

I thought Trust's front bar was designed FOR the R33..... either this isn't true or the lady has no idea what's she's bullshitting about, which I would lean towards the latter more.

2die4 body works, go down and talk to craig...

his doing my GTR at the moment, honest panel beater and his work is excellent for the price he charges.

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
