    Default LarZ' Black R33

    At some stage i will have owned every sporty model nissan every made, all in black...

    Many of ye will recognise GaryAE86's (http://www.driftireland.ie/forum/sho...ae86-R33-Build) skyline which was also owned by the wheeler dealer that is Dave Daly.

    It's now mine, and will be my daily while my PS13 (http://www.driftireland.ie/forum/sho...3-daily-driver) gets some TLC. I picked this up a few weeks back but was pretty quiet about it til now, other than annoying ye with 'wanted' ads on all over the place. The car needs some little bits, but with fresh NCT til September 2016 it's a great car in great condition. All i want to do to it is bring it to a high level of finish in a lot of areas. I have a list of flaws as long as my arm for this car, but it drives great, albeit an rb20e. Ye'll be seeing a good bit more of this over the coming months.

    SPEC:

    Spec 2 RB20e Manual R33
    Lowered on springs
    Buddyclub P1 17x9" wheels
    Nardi Wheel (unsure of style)
    Some aftermarket exhaust and cone air filter


    Plans are:

    1. Get RID of the stickers (queue complaints from JDM fanboys who LOVE THE STICKERS). I'm too old for that shite....
    2. Change the seats. On the hunt for GTR seats. Easy to find, but i can't offer the owners enough money to part with them.
    3. There's no boot trim. That needs to be sorted ASAP
    4. Front speakers are missing. I'm going to put a decent sound system in this car as i miss having good speakers.
    5. Some of the interior trim is scratched and worn. I'm going to try and replace those bits
    6. There are some horrendous gauges in the car that need binning.
    7. The exhaust is horrible. Droney and ugly.
    8. The skirts and spats are poorly fitted. They need to be taken off and re-fitted.
    9. Might change the wheels. They suit the car but I love dish, so not sure about them.
    10. Needs some lows, but coilovers are expensive
    11. Steering wheel needs tidying. Horn functionality and that needs to be restored. I can't be pressing a button under the dash to bip at young wans...

    That's just a small list really. I'm already after sourcing some nice bits so i'll keep ye posted. Here is a pic. I refuse to take more before those stickers are gone.

    The stickers are painful to get off... all individual letters. I was out with the heat gun for about an hour yesterday evening and only managed to get 3 complete stickers off Gonna be a long process.

    Get yourself a pinstripe wheel (aka Caramel Wheel). They should take the stickers right off. Search for one on eBay

    Loads of tar remover let it sit for 15 min and they will nearly fall off!
