Hey all

Some little wanker badged my Gtr last night on my 33. The rear one.

I've rung wreckers etc but most are $100+ if they have them at all.

I've checked out eBay, but some look really tacky. Can someone suggest some they have bought that look really good with perfect sizing?

Fkn pissed off right now.

Ahh sucks mate, that's always one thing I thought must be nerve wracking as a GTR owner. Did they at least do a good job of it, didn't damage the paint or anything?

Unfortunately I think if you are set on replacing it and going genuine then you're going to have to fork out for it :(

fatz was wrecking a whole R33 GTR wasn't he? PM him. It was front end damaged only.

JJ and Toy Shop and others in PI magazine may have a half cut with the badge still on?

Wreckers? Otherwise new from JJ already mentioned...

If you score, you just need double sided tape.

Considering now getting a GTR sticker made...

As ive been badged once in two weeks of owning it and last GTR was done twice.

Wonder what it would look like?

Person #1 looking at GTR Sticker:- "Why is there a sticker there? Shouldn't it be a badge?"

Person #2:- "Dunno. Maybe it's been debadged?"

Person #1:- "Geez, maybe it's been debadged many times?"

Person #2:- "Well if it has, I'd prefer to put the badge back on and get a different sticker for inside the car."

Person #1:- "Waddayamean?"

Person #2:- "Inside the windscreen, the sticker will say, 'This car is protected by shotgun 3 days a week - Guess WHICH DAY!'"

Person #2's 2c

This is on of the major reasons for me leaving my Rb26Dett powered GTS4 with stock blue GT badges and Nothing on the back to say otherwise.

Actaully on that notes....One of the GT badges were not stuck on when i got the car. it was in the glove box.

How are these put on from factory? double tape as terry sugessted?

As my garage is full at the moment my gtr is living in my driveway. My dog went off last night, so as usual i ran to the front to make sure my baby was ok (im paranoid even though i live in a good area).... no one was to be seen. After reading this thread, i just so happened to check out my badge on my way out of the office and noticed a scratch on paint leading up to the badge (very small) that looks like someone has tryed to pry it off with a screw driver. This was not there before and i saw kids walking the street a little earlier that night.

Note to self: Clear out garage and buy a gun.

Note to adz2332: Buy a dog.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
