Andy Brown told me to come here so its his fault

Anyway im Jay i own a R33GTST Spec2 (used to be a ford man that owned a cossie for years ) and i love the gtst to bits ! I love working on cars i try to do most things ,at the mo im building a engine as i plan to do a lot of track day's in it next year and i also map so have a apexi power fc and fc datalogit . At the mo it has 18x9 bbs rep's and cusco coilovers ebc disc's and mintex 1166 pads , engine has just spitfires front mount /oil cooler/ect heres a few pics

when i first got it back in march

fitted all the frount mount and oil cooler and had a rsp stage one map and did this to the turbo 4 days later

so on went a rsp hybrid turbo plus a few gadgets with the power fc

then the 18's

i work with grp and carbon and being older that a teenager now :bawling: i dont do all the big bumpers ect so i set about a suttle mod to the front

there we go thats my life so far with skyline ownership :clap:

Im into all car's tho love tuning modding ect 1 a self confessed petrol head lol and thats part the reason why im here as Andy said this site is very good for techy and i love that ,learning and passing on knowledge of what ive already learned


Cheers Jay

Looks like a tidy car, I like what you have done with the front bumper, where did you get the front splitter from?

 

[JP]

[furrywoolyhatuk]

Just had a look on the website, Is it a one of? I would be interested in one for my 33.

 

[JP]

So if your turning it into a track monster whats next on the list any handing mods?

yeh it needs camber/toe arms i have lock out to fit , dnt know if the brakes are up to it might try a gtr set or go for a ap 354mm 6 pot but the wallet says gtr pmsl 1 and its my daily so its guna be a bolt in cage but would love a point to point weld in cage

 

[furrywoolyhatuk]

I suppose if its a daily you dont want to be stripping out the interior and go down the weight saving route? The ecr33 make good track cars if set up right, your going to have yourself one hell of a time!

JP, I enquired as to the front splitter and the guys were really helpful, just wondering if you had any pics of how you mounted it up, taken from underneath?

How far back does the splitter extend?
