You laugh now, but when I'm at a formal occasion with a shitty DJ and they need someone to drop Dre beats...I have something up my sleeve.

There's not been any details released as yet. I've already added the rear diffuser to my order, so out of that list I think I'd add the 'Front Under Spoiler'/front diffuser, 'Side Under Spoiler'/side skirts, and 'boot lip spoiler' as they become available. I love factory parts. Wheels, coilovers and braces I'll go aftermarket.

I see!

The subtle factory add on kits usually look quite good.

And yeah, Wheels / Suspension / Strut Brace go aftermarket.

i wont be buying an 8MR.. no chance ill afford one lol

this is my dilemma... VIII's go from 20k and VIII MR's from 30k.

EOTD i'll probably go an VIII with an IX or VIII MR turbo already in it

only thing i'm thinking is that the MR may hold it's price better? i dunno

alright, probably tonight or tomorrow night good for you?

Toby, take me for a spin while you have it, pretty please?

Happy to take whoever on a spin, maybe tomorrow night.Not till late though don't normally finish up dinner till after 8:30. If its a few guys prefer it on the weekend.

Yup definately holding its price. My brother got his for about $35k five years ago. And its still in really good condition

And if 8MR's are still 30K plus its held up really well

the only difference between them is the alloy roof and turbo i think.. so kind of pointless to get an MR when you could probably get a turbo out of one for cheap..

im even considering a seven! i think the bodykits on the seven are heaps better.. and i really dont wanna mod it too much.

If you plan on modifying then no point getting an 8mr only advantage it has is an alloy roof and not paying $10k for that

$10K for an alloy roof?

What's the roof made of on the non MR Edition?

IX turbo, lower intercooler pipes, injectors, ebc, tune... 230 awkw done

coilovers rims etc... obviously

yeh, same as my thought..

7's are apparently good up to 245kw

so im thinkin of e85.. just a tad safer.

BOV, gear-knob and seats are also different... ;)

8MR has no value over an 8 for a street / track car. Spend $10k on mods for an 8.

The 6 Speed box on the > VIII models eats the VII 5 Speed is the only consideration. The gearing is far far better.

      Maybe also really stiffly sprung track cars. Get the inside wheel up in a corner and all the fun stops. Also me sometimes (rarely) when I have to stand on the brake to convince the diff to drive the wheel that is still on the ground when I'm trying to diagonally get over severe driveway entrance, etc.

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By Duncan · Posted

      I feel like I'm missing something. You had an authorised installer come out and install a new alarm. Post install the car doesn't start, and you aren't getting the installer back to fix what they did wrong?

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
