Hey guys,

So I've been building my r33 for over a yr now and finally starting to get somewhere because I've had some set back's,

Ill re update this tonight when I get home on my pc and upload some photos and build specs.

Don't hate on my to much :)

Cheers james

Acquired some brand new vskf's from jdm convept in burning black, Sizes are 18x10-12 A disk front & 18x11-5 O disk rear.

Also have some Brand new wilwood 6 spot front with a 333mm rotor, got these in a group buy on SAU over a yr ago, still need to purchase some rears

Just bought a pair of Velo podium's the other day off SAU, thinking about making up some custom floor mounts out of RHS to get the seat lower to the floor, i always just find the r33 seating position to high and my head is too close to the roof with my helmet on.

Also have a Nardi 350mm suede wheel with a works bell boss kit & works bell quick release kit, bit tight to get out other wise.

Bought a pair of Work equips in 18x11-3 just for thrashers, prefer to drive on genuine wheels (got over imitations) so always got my eyes open on cheap skidders.

Decided to rip out the stock fuel setup whilst i was at it and do it right the 1st time around: 60Lt fuel cell, Twin bosch 044 pumps, 750hp carter lift pump, 2.5Lt surge tank, earls fittings, an8 hardline throughout the entire car. Once at engine bay ill be using Teflon braided line for use of e85, twin entry Fuel rail, injector dynamics 1000cc injectors, fuel pressure reg.

Currently fabbing up the new front strut towers, still have a fair bit to go until finished, but aiming for it to be rego'd.

Yer I ran a s14 front sub frame and made up some engine mounts to suit, not to much f*kin round

Soooo last weekend my friend Luke and I started with the fabrication of the new rear half of the strut towers, we are trying to keep as much of the old tower as possible to keep strong. Once we finish with the rear of the towers we will also be tubbing the front to give space for more lock.

So this was the first stage of fabrication on the right tower, still needs more bracing throughout and needs a top plate welded on, but you can get an idea where abouts the coilover will be mounted in the back right hand corner.

It will be fitted with brand new driftworks cs2 coilovers all round and awaiting gktech's brand new designed knuckles to arrive with super steering arms attached.

Please keep the comments coming guys.

    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car

    • I believe @Duncan has given it a crack at Mt Buller before (in actual race conditions)
    • All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.  
    • My steering lock unit on my Infiniti G37 has failed. The car is a local 2012 Infiniti G37 (Q60 ) I need to replace the unit My local mechanic said i need to buy a complete steering wheel assembly. Does anybody no any mechanics in Gold Coast or Brisbane who can fix this issue or where i can buy just the Steering lock control unit. Thanks
