well seen as i dont have one of these up here we go,

R33
when i got it:
cusco coilovers
17"buddyclub P1's
japspeed cat back exhaust
ractive air filter
GTR badges



first mod remove GTR badges: stopped to get petrol about 10 mins away from where i got it (Roscommon) and pulled them off there

then half way home i rang and booked in for some tints and drove straight there

next was a subtle mod with the dash lights

after that i got another subtle mod, smoked side repeaters

... and then i started on the power mods with
apexi power intake/avcr/power fc

and a little bit of engine dressing


next was a spur of the moment set of wheels


i soon noticed the gtr spoiler was in bits so i bought another one from knight-racer with a carbon blade

then in goes the walbro 255 pump


then i ended up going to silverstone at the last min after ordering a few goodies which turned up while i was away

but the body got a little damage on it while away thanks to a friend of mine but it was only bodywork so not too bad



this is where the body mods came from, and seen as i wasnt paying for them i went a little mad, up on stilts and stripped for some overhauling


on with an apex performance FMIC

and japspeed HICAS lockout bar


got it a top secret front bumper (as nowhere at the time would supply me with a do-luck) some wide vented front wings, 400r rear arches, jun side skirts and jun rear spats
test fit


then purchase of a nismo short shifter and nismo braided clutch line


paint and prep


out with the old series 1 SSQV and in with a black edition series 2



on with some more carbon


the first finish of the body work in BMW AO7/8


then had a shithole map it and dropped the bottom end within days.
so decision time.... rebuild or conversion...

on with an apexi N1 catback, japspeed decat, and apexi GT spec downpipes


out comes the RB25


new tomei 1.5 steel headgasket going onto the rb26


RB26DETT in and mapped


but due to not being happy with the map or the crowd i was dealing with i took it to the ever capable TDP and put in a HKS f-con pro-v gold and had it mapped there

403bhp @ 0.9 bar and smooth as fook.... well it was till the clutch decided to shit itself after a few weeks, so in with an OS Giken twin plate with lightweight flywheel


so happy with the power and the smoothness i took to other mods with R33 GTR front black brembos, and R34 gtr rear gold brembos new rota grids in titanium and a do-luck bumper from a friend in cork who done a nice deal on it with mine along with a GTR rear diff and shafts


and not to everyones taste and still not mine but its on so it can stay on till i decide to change it up again a JDL roof spoiler.

and she now looks like this


some suspension upgrades (which needs setting up at the min)


bonnet dampers


carbon switches


GTR seats (which have now been changed for recaros, still need to take pics of them)


deep dish steering wheel in too

and some flocking


SO THATS IT FOR NOW, its for sale too, but not gettin any decent offers, so it it doesnt sell or even get a decent offer by mid jan she'll be getting changed up a bit as im starting to go off the looks...


all opinions welcome
