No one likes it, not everyone has it. But I do and it makes me cry, Is there anything I can do to fight the signs of rust and stop them from getting worse or prevent more from turning up. Mine seems to be turning up near the wheels on the side skirts and in the boot? Is there a spray over it option or a use some molding over then spray? really no idea myself.

Cheers guys

There is stuff called rust converter. You can buy it at supercheap. Converts the rust to a paintable primer. Then get some touch up paint and you'll be good. Unless it started to go under the paint then there's no hope. :(

^^ plenty rust converters out there . . a good one that ive used before is called RANEX, follow the instructions and you cant go wrong

iv noticed my boot sometimes fills up with water a little bit :S now its a tad rusty aswel...

checked out all the sealant etc andits all still stuck on, i cant find where the water is coming in from...

should i go knock back the rust that is already present and cover that with some protectionism,

then wait to see if i can find streaks next time it happens as i will clean my boot when addressing the rust in there?

      Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.

      Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.

      Yeeeppp, been following a lot of the testing on the latest Xona stuff and there are some mental results.  He also went over 1000hp @ 4 hubs on his Mainline with a XRE6364S (63mm) which was also well into the 20psi range before 4000rpm on a 2.5. Crazy stuff. Fwiw the XRE5964S is basically the modern equivalent of their old HTA3582 - would drive nicely enough on an RB25 or 26, but proven capable of a huge amount of power if you want to spicy with rpm tho even at sane boost levels will make stout numbers

      The axels in my R33 seem tired, and have a bit of play in them. I cannot find any new of course, not interested in buying used, but I am looking to see if anyone can identify some cross compatible axles. In the states I have seen suggested for S chassis the J30 axles, however for the skyline (as best I can tell) the lengths are about an inch off (2.5cm) on both sides. R33 my measure L 22" R 24.5" GPT L 22.5" 24.25" J30 L 23.5" 25.5"  so shaft length is probably an inch wider. Not sure if someone has another still remanufactured option besides the J30. I figured worst case I can buy a pair tear them down and swap the center shaft. My other option was reaching out to GSP to see if they cannot piece together a set, since the axle stubs are still manufactured, I wouldn't think it be that hard to find a shaft or make a shaft work.
