u havent heard the best things about jetspeed LOL...where have u been mate :wassup: my friends always do their body kit fitting and spraying there...many indonesians car clubs e.g secret,elite,agentz,level etc do their body kitting there...believe me  :rofl:

LOL... yeah and have you seen the fit of some of those kits? it's shite... the moulds I've seen them use on some cars they have done are very poor fit and are only 2 or 3 layers fibreglass.. Also some of their cheap spray jobs I've seen are also very average quality.

My point is - You get what you pay for.

I'd rather spend more dollars to get the job done right than take my car to a place that does it for the lowest price just because they want the business.

Agnes - shop around and ask a few others for recommendations. I see the tempatation to go with the lowest price you can get since you're paying out of your own pocket, but the quality of workmanship really does make a difference. It also depends how long you can go without your car as doing a full respray will take some time to do it right.

All the best !

:cheers:

Yeah, i've seen your car around St.Albans....sweet ride.

St.Albans is getting flooded with skylines now.....some bad examples, but you've got one nice r33 :D

Also about a dozen houses down, some guy bought an R33 GT-R....nice silver one (Great Example! Very Clean!).....wonder if hes reading the forums? (St.albans area)

mmm...:D

We need to have another Western meet up, once my car is back on the road :D.  Lately i have also been seeing an increased number of Skylines, in the Taylors Lakes/St. Albans area.

Yeah id like to see that - Some place walking distance for me.....heheheh

Steve.

Wow thats a crazy paint job you got there.

Design is different, dont mind the colour pritty nice.

RED, BLACK, WHITE or a NEON DARK GREEN are my fav for some reason.

Never been to auto salon whats it like. Worth going to??

yeah al organise a meet... when do you get your car back?

LOL... r u serious? I suggest you ask a few more people..... I haven't heard the best things about jetspeed, especially regarding body kit fitting and spraying. Doesn't hurt to shop around to get the best deal, even more so when it's not urgent.

I agree ive dealt through and been stung by Vik at Jetspeed so from my experience i wouldnt recommend them.

I too have seen this car around scumshine, but i think that it may actually be a different car?!?!

Anyways welcome to the forums and enjoy your stay!

Cheers

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
