    Default Carl's R33 GTS-T

    Just copied and pasted an older thread of mine on torque-irl.

    Well I tough id get this rolling,

    Got my barge back in December 2008 as a swap for my honda accord,

    first thing first was to get it checked over, went to tdp with it and he set it up correct as it was running lean (too much air, think thats lean )

    it made 288@ the fly

    two weeks later i checked the oil and to my horror i had a burner! compression test is to be done shortly

    It looked like this



    or so i tought,

    turned out the last owner left the bonnet pins up and when i went to see it the bonnet was wavier than walkers crinkle cut,

    and i had some smelly ass tenzo's with no tyres on them so they had to be got rid of aswell,

    galla_4 was selling some fairly tasty ultralite battle's so i threw them on



    then my cf boonet and it now looks like this





    Today im off to pick up a Bride Driver Seat, Recaro Passenger Seat and a Japspeed FMIC

    fmic will be fitted tomorow,

    Spec so far is

    Zeal coilovers
    Ultralite battles
    Rear upper strut
    cusco 2-way diff
    cf bonnet
    catback (unknown make)

    Could someone tell me the front bumper and spoiler make too?

    that was all from jan - now,

    not everything has gone to plan 100%


    So here's the spec as of today:



    Front Bumper (Unkown Make)
    Carbon Bonnet
    Lip Spoiler (Again Unkown Make)
    Ultralite Battle Wheels (Bronze)


    Uprated Rad
    Japspeed FMIC
    HKS Mushroom Intake

    Turbo Elbow
    Downpipe
    Decat
    Catback Exhaust (JASMA "RO" plaque but cannot find make)

    Nismo Twin Plate Gmax Clutch
    Cusco 2-Way Differential
    EBC Redstuff Pads
    Polybushed
    Rear Strut
    Zeal Coilovers


    Apexi SAFC
    MOMO Race Steering Wheel


    Thats all I can think of right now



    However,

    Im tucking her away for winter and buying a heap of bits and bobs to get her nice and ready for trackdays next summer, gonna rock my serious diesel fez!

    Wishlist:

    - Nismo Slave Cyliner
    - Driftworks Total Hicas Eliminator
    - Exhaust Manifold
    - Uprated Turbo (not huge but responsive hks gt2540 or similar)
    - Bigger Injectors
    - FPR
    - Oil Cooler
    - ECU To Run The Fun
    - An NCT ( )
    - Reclinable Bucket Seats (recaro's probably)
    - New discs and pads but will try get my hands on a full set of brembo's from a GTR
    - Lots Of Defi's
    - Cage
    - New Plugs
    - Coilpacks
    - Braided Lines
    - Takata Harnesses
    - A lot of suspension bits from driftworks and then a nice fast road set up from TDP (if they'll have me )
    - HID's
    - Any Other Niggly bits that are needed to bring it together


    How much of a dent I make in that list is very questionable but Im gonna make a good bash at it, got the oul 21'st coming up so tat should help me acquire a few spondoolies to make it viable!
