Hey guys.

My names Lucas and for a quick run down I'm 18 , I'm aalmost a 3rd year mechanic and have always had a love for skylines since I could remember .

About 3 weeks ago I purchased my first skyline which is a r33 series 1 . Rb20e -.- pretty lame but due to p plate laws in new south Wales. Don't worry though eventually that will be gone .

Then last week I parked the car out the front of work tosee a truck reversing out of a driveway and managing to collide with the my driverside rear quarter panel . The driver who was unable to speak very much English tried to tell me the quarter can be unbolted from the car and replaced . After much argument he gave me all his details. And now to this day his still refusing to pay his insurance or the damages as he believes he can repair it himself. So I will be organising a court day for all of that.

As for upgrades and my expansion path from here. I want to achieve a nice daily streeter over a track car. So for now it will be mainly getting everything to look the part.

Ideally I would like to Atleast

- full gtr kit

- gtr seats

- s15 yellow respray

- 5 stud conversion with big brakes .

But as I can tell it will be quiet the same as my old s13 . Was ment to be a mild build and ended up being a monster .

Car details

Year : 1994

Model : r33 series 1

Transmission : stock 5 speed

Suspension : tien adjustable coilovers all round and Whiteline racing rear sway bar . On Roh shit non guard filling 15s Lmaoo

And that's about it . Hopefully have a few updates soon and I'll throw some photos in later including damages

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
    • FYI: Racebox RE7R Custom Tunes Released!   https://goracebox.com/.../2017-infiniti-q50-q60-re7r-tcm...   FOR GEN 2 (21+) VEHICLES, PLEASE SEE NOTE AT BOTTOM See more   But whomever tuned your car is the tuner you should go back to, AMS, Sonictune or BT Tune....
