no shit. my dad calls me at 7 last night and sez he's gonna be late coming home from work and to tell some dude that he was expecting to visit that he'll take a raincheck. cool cool. so i head out to play some indoor. check my phone after (11pm) and find like 20 billion missed calls from mum. apparently, he had fin work at 4, gone to the docs and was ambo'd to the hospital. they admitted him and held him there for 6hrs then sent him home. first thing he did when he got home was to fill up a glass with scotch. by the time i get home he's passed out drunk on the couch.

for added context, he's had a major heart attack last year.

typical curries bro. my dad doesnt drink though, so hes always complaining about shit.. best part im helping him and hes saying me n my sis stress him thats why lol

worst thing about old bikes is lack of aftermarket parts/accessories

There's plenty! Your bike in particular might be hard to find something specific to it, but a lot of parts are universal or fit multiple model.

Tyga have a bunch of stuff for the zxr

Some ideas in here

i see

found some stuff on bikebandit.com

ebay is gay

Stock catback I bought didn't fit :(. The brackets/bolts don't line up, sigh. Mate reckons my pre-cat piping may be straight from a GTT as well (along with rest of my exhaust zz).

Drain. Looks like may have to take it to exhaust place just to cut it, line it up, and weld it back on :S... So much to do, so little time >__<.

Anyone know the boost limits of the standard R33 GTS-T bov? Starting to get compressor surge at high boost.

14-18psi from what I've read in FI section.

Grab yourself a GTR bov, looks stock and will hold high psi no probs.

On another note, I'm impressed by what people drive around in Prague, really impressed to be honest!

Was told its bolt on into the cross over pipe, after seeing one up close, I'd say it's bolt on.

I'm sure Ash or whoever will confirm it 100% as my memory is bit fading... Damn European beers!

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I highly rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
