Yeah dry ice is the go. But dont be a tight ass like me and not buy enough as it makes it harder!!

I used dry ice in bags to do the upright panels, worked a treat. Then used thinners to get rid of the little bits that was left

Update,

Roll cage in, perfect fit and fantastic workmanship. Genuine harness in. Currently on its way down to Melbourne on the back of a truck as ive just moved.

Couple of photos too!

Next, give the car a confirmatory run at the drags, then looks like my first event will be the Matrusi at Winton in Feb. Looking forward to getting the car out there and enjoying it.

Well been a while since ive updated this.

Winton Matsuri didnt go well, kept blowing off intercooler piping all weekend. Got about 5 half laps in.... For those 5 half laps I was alive......

Have to admit there were no problems other than the cooler piping blowing off.

Was fairly pissed off for most of the weekend so not many pics

So to fix the problem, i flared the pipes, new silicone joiners, new t-bar clamps on all the silicone joiners

    • 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.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
