Drive through Springvale windows down, random comes up and says nice ride man...thought he was trying to rob me...it's just been that long since anyone has received a compliment in an R33.

Bet you get an EPA in the mail

It has it in the video name :D

Oh.

I'm on my phone can't see that shit.

Called the engine builder who built the car and engine. He basically said to me I'm an idiot for selling it, and the previous owner was another Idiot to spend so much and sell it to me..

Apparently a "very serious" build with no shortcuts on this one..

Now I don't know if I should sell it

Once you have decided to sell - do it.

I lost too many nights of sleep debating selling/not. Took me a month to post it up... But overall glad I sold it... On to bigger and better things as they say.

That said I miss the car, bad.

After driving a mates GTR @ DECA on Sat, just reaffirmed just how well my car was setup with a no expense spared attitude.

Not saying my mates wasn't done right, his is a daily so it needs to be driveable and not have 1.5 way diffs like mine etc.

Ah :(

This isn't normal for an R33 Gts-t

Most be an ulterior motive

yeh its already up for sale anyway. So i guess I'll just keep it at the price its at and if someone gives me an 'offer i can't refuse' then it'll be goodbyes.

Haha got the same compliment yesterday. Hang in there!!! Only a couple more years until all skylines have rusted away haha

lol... every sinngle compliment I get for my car starts with "I don't normally like 33's BUT............"

Yeah I got told the same, and now it's "I don't like Fords but.."

"I still don't..."

Haha!

R32's used to be $15k. Now they $4000

It's hard justifying a respray which costs more than the car :/

    • The spray cans were in the "Kiln" room whilst I was preping the parts,  so probably around 2 hours to get them warmed up, the kiln room has 3 small ovens running at 100°c, 3 medium sized ovens running 100°c, and the large one I used running at 80°c, the room itself was about 28°c, I also spent a bit of time taping up the parts in the room as well, and by the time I was done I would assume that the parts were around that 28°c As for power, I expect a couple of Killerwasps up high would be achievable with the current mods, I'm still running the MZR 2.0 intake and throttle body, and there is a slight mismatch with the 2.0 intake (smaller) and 2.5 intake ports (larger) on the head, this intake is matched and specifically designed to fix this issue with the ports mismatch, the throttle body is also a couple of mm larger, OEM is 65mm, the Bosch is 68mm In the end it will look "prettier" than the molded plastic thing that is the OEM MZR 2.0 intake As for the LSD, it's the OEM Torsen which works fine for what I use the car for, plus, basically no maintenance apart from the occasional oil change
    • I was at Tunehouse in Marrickville (great team over there really know their VR's) , and I spotted this Very clean R35.  
    • Mate , I have the same issue right now with the exhaust noise , if you can tell me what your local guy did , I'll talk to my guys and see if they can do the same. Power is good but it just too loud when put it down. 
    • The other trick I've found with wrinkle black is to put the can in hot water for a bit to warm the paint up, and to pre-heat whatever you're painting. It'll be interesting to see if you pick up any power with the intake, following with interest. Got a proper lsd for this?
