hey man you pm'd me in regards to em, to my knowledge now i went looking in the shed and as it turns out someone (not naming names DAD.) has thrown them away, i'll have another look later on but,

but seriously why on earth would you want them? especially to ahve to go as far as modifying them to fit your car? it's so much effort for something that (no offence) looks dorky

I think you will find that they will require midificatio before they will fit.

You are wanting to so this in order to have chrome stripping? yes?

If that is the case i suggest you take your current door strips to an plating company (the ones that gold/silver plate badges etc. They should be able to sort it out for you and they will fit back onto your car without any dramas.......and should be at a very reasonable cost too :rant:

hmmm, reason...

1) i live near a dirt road so on a hot sunny day i have my window down and need to use my wipers to clear the dust off my window. the deturgent stuff comes straight in.

2) does this attached file look dorky? my opinion... no.

cheers anyway mun

ok well i just had to scrape cum off my legs.

those weatherstrips look nothing like the ceffy ones the ceffy ones look a lot more aggressive and less subtle, you'd be better off going to a japwrecker or even trying ebay?

perhaps 2 door weatherstrips would fit straight up? after all, the 4 door is only 5cm longer than the 2door!

BUT you have the common misconception of weatherstrips... these will not stop water and detergent from trickling into your car! the reason these weatherstrips were made is because a lot (A LOT) of japs smoke cigarettes,

To be able to smoke while driving and not have the pesky side effect of SUFFOCATION occouring due to wound up windows, they put weather strips on so they could have their window cracked open a bit without the cabin getting too blustery!

cos it's cold in japan and simply not feasible to have the window open

hope this clears things up a bit!

cheers fellas

more of that green four door is on HPIv8

have tried all the local jap importers around the place, nothing and tried my nissan dealer, this part can no longer be imported for sum reason.

cheers again.

You wont be able to get them as they are an acessory. I tried with the ceffy ones, no joy.

Id highly doubt you would be able to even find a set, if you did getting them imported Id expect to get them back broken, as they run the whole lenth of the cabin.

Good luck tho.

how about getting in contact with jap wreckers? learn some japanese and DO IT. it can't be that hard and besides they'd just be throwing them away anyways, so you could get them cheap!

being an accessory you would only have to get em posted and that way you don't gotta pay brokerage fees or nothin like that!

give it a goooooOooOOO!

    • http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.
    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
