I'm not sure of anyone who does a specific kit, but I'm in the process of putting together a kit consisting of BN sports full kit, widened front guards (+30) and wide rear fenders.

Also in the photo section there is a full thread on widebody lines! ;)

Yeah I love the look of them, i know it's not everyone's cup of tea but I love the fatness of them. Mixed with the right ride height and offset and they transform the 33 into a sexy beat. Really gives it a drift look if you ask me.

Have you been looking at fenders yourself?

sorry but +30mm does not equal wide body, just makes it look like a gtr.

if you want wide body on a r33 u either need to track down a wise sports kit (near on impossible) or get custom made.

im sick of people posting up wide body photos when u only have 20 or 30 mm wide guards, you have only entered into the norm of r33 gtr's

Yeah I get what you're saying. I wasn't actually trying to say that +30 is widebody at all, but I could see how it comes across that way. But I guess it's all relative anyway.

^^^^^^^ this is exactly what i mean by wide body, 1st pic is the wise sports kit.

the wide gaurds u are looking at are not realy wider, there is only a small portion of the guard that is actually wider and its mainly just a section around the lip

if you have some cash, go n buy the veilside wide front and rear guards made for r33 gtr's get them put on n get some custom made side skirts, but what ever u do dont get a veilside front bar, rear bar or skirts.

there is a set on ebay atm $560 for front and rear guards

Yeah well sort of... I currently have i think the origin or m sports frp front guards on my gtst and have just installed 18x 9.5+12 advan tcii wheels with 265 tyres...

The wheel and tyres sit in line with the outer edge of the guard which concerns me as the car will be used for circuit racing so i think i require new / wider guards again to gain some clearance... other wise i may just have to get the wheels machined slightly...

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
