Nah same wheels that I bought it with, and surprisingly no spacers on them either lol

I've been looking at getting a different set but being Rays and design being alright im gonna leave them on for a while, too bad they are pretty banged up from the previous owner.

Finally!! Been looking for my ITB's for over a week. Thought I had it packed away in a box so I have literally gone through every parts box maybe 3 times.
Come to find out I mislabeled a part bundle. Walked by and glanced at it 3-4 times till I noticed I put a "?" On the nomenclature, opened it up and turned out to be it hiding in plain sight -_-

got some new hoses to replace the old ones. But seems I have missed one -_-

OEM has some weird clamps on one side for some reason. would make it much easier to remove the collector with a regular pinch clamp so ill be using those

Now to wait on the collector to get back from my buddy welding the Additional Injector ports on it.

Thanks man, looks like you did it just in time to. Lol

Not sure what I'm gonna do about this.

Probably use another host for now but I'll have to be extremely bored to fix all the previous photos or wait to see what photobucket does.

Sileighty_85 · 07-24-2017, 06:20 PM

Guess im gonna ue Flicker till i find a better host

Finally got in my ARP exhaust studs, so i can bolt on the turbos now!

Finally got around to installing the Rear brembos.

Probably gonna look into finding a BCNR33 brake master cylinder as the pedal feel is a bit softer than what I prefer. Still stops amazingly though.

Few shots my buddy took.

Progress on the engine, OEM water pump, belt pullies with ARP hardware

HKS belt installed

Intake manifold installed, just need to adjust the linkage, route a few hoses and trq a few bokts and it should be ready to install!

Current setup is great, has a smooth initial bite, no noise. only thing I wanna do next is install the R33 BMC as the pedal is a bit soft on the top end.

where did you buy your current pads from? I cant find them in the US. I was thinking going carbotech.

Think I go them from here http://rightdriveparts.com/hawk-hp-p...-skyline-gt-r/

So tired of dealing with HID's so decided to try some LED Headlights.

Im liking these a bit better as far as fitment goes, everything plugs right in with no modding.

Set up comparison

Left side HID Right Side LED

Installed

to late to wake up the neighbors so have to go for a drive tomorrow night.

But looking good thus far, and i have High Beams again!

RVAE34 · 10-23-2018, 10:11 AM

Very nice. Loving those LED lights. How is the cutoff though?

Dolph_KYAS13 · 10-24-2018, 06:27 AM

I'm going to have to try out those LEDs. do you have a link for them?

Still havent driven on them but seem pretty good, cant be any worse than the HID's.

Also noticed the bulbs can swivle in the housing to further adjust the cut off.

Maybe a dumb question but are the Skyline low beams H3C like the Silvia's? Every low beam LED bulb I've gotten has been a dim fog light bulb lol. LED's are the shit though

gostrider · 10-25-2018, 10:45 AM

LEDs are a PIA to fit in the housings. at least the ones I did in my r32. Link to yours?

Depends on the year, pre 91 headlights use H3C, post 91 use H1.

If your bulbs you are using dont have a ballast box then they are probably gonna suck

These were painless. Fully PNP no modding required.

2 posts up is the link

Awesome updates! I need to read through the whole thing when I get some time.

What's the current exhaust on the car? Any drone?
