Skyline R33 Spec2

[Smurf.]

Lol yea turned out a great job.
No doubt everyone in the street will get it done now knowing it can be done
Need this garage door fixed asap.

Hopefully I'll have door for sale soon if any good too you. Just waiting on new stuff arriving.
It's a roller door but.

Thanks bud, don’t think I can have a roller due to space plus I like having up & over style as it provides some shelter when up if it’s raining

I never plan on moving and the small garage really annoyed me... now it’s perfect as it’s warm enough being attached to the house and fits the Jap turbo I longed for for long enough, I’m happy

So I found the original gear knob in the boot in a box provided by the previous owner.

I was Kina looking a factory gear knob as the current one was annoying my ocd not lining up correctly and coming loose some times, I’m sure if I spent 5 mins on it I’d have it sorted but perfect the OEM look.

need to treat it and shine it up but I like it

Also bought a trickle charger for it and set it on winter mode... it’s only turned on there few mins but it’s now happily sitting around 14v.

I need a spec 2

It's running standard turbo? Be careful if so with beeR as spec2 runs ceramic turbo blades and many became victim to beeR's

As far as I’m aware it is.

If the turbo goes it’s upgrade time but until then the beeR is set to off, only tried it for a few seconds... not really my cuppa

Trickle charger doing its thing nicely


Garage door fixed, my garage now officially is sorted (except bit of Pvc trim to finish off)

car was sitting out in rain whilst door was being rebuilt with new parts....put heater in and dried it off rightly, think il keep the heater in there.

Toying with the idea of putting 2 juke Nismo seats in the front of the liner as they’re grey/dark grey and wouldn’t look out of place in a spec 2?

will they be made to fit anyone know?

 

[Big Pimp]

They look really good!

 

[ossy2004]

Should make a good improvement if I can get them. If they’re heated il get a switch and power to them also.
R33 with heated seats... there’s a first lol

Replacing skyline seats is odd, you need to have rails very low or seats sit way too high. 34 seats are a good wee oe upgrade, rear seat also fits.

Where did you pick them up? Look great!!

 

[ossy2004]

Haven’t bought them.... looking into them and wondering if they’l fit... being typically from 4dr going into a 2 door may be an issue also.

they look a great replacement but need to know if they can be designed into the existing size/frame some how. Getting kids in the rear may be an issue not that they’re there ever but will in the future I’m sure

 

[ossy2004]

since it was a nice evening both cars got a nice hoover and clean etc

got the big lady bit dried off and back into the garage with the heat on.

Roll on the weekend, plans to hit dundrod again for a spin, loved it last weekend

Last weekend.... bit of super and spin, the supercar didn’t wana play even thou it would have stuffed me

Spec2 front end with a front mount looks incredible. Are the black bits painted or wrapped? Haven't seem that done to be fair. Looks neat!

Proper carbon, none of that aul hydrodip or wrap sh ite
It breaks it up nicely, I do like it

 

[southsky sunrise]

That’s lovely

 

[Gemma]

Love it!! Love the fact you also extended the garage to fit it in, that's awesome lol

between removing old shed, order new shed & fit electrics etc, extending patio so new shed fitted, moving old oil tank and causing that to wreck the boiler, rebuilding boiler and getting oil tank internally cleaned, extending garage and then having to rebuild garage door just to make a car fit was NOT easy or cheap

the wife thankfully said whatever, it’s your doing and your garage... she wonders where all my money is going

That’s before I dump a lot of cash into the skyline. Lol

@ossy2004 and I thought cleaning out my garage, hiring a skip etc and painting the floor was effort

I have a standard Juke leather seat here you're welcome to borrow to test heights? it's missing the Juke slider, but I'd assume you would want to use the R33 ones anyway!

edit: it's a passenger one if that makes any difference, i'd converted it to an office chair lol

 

[ossy2004]

Few things tidied up. Wing mirror carbon bits, driver has bit of a bent crack in the clear coat... sanded it down and restored it. The shuttle panel and wiper arms been previously painted but showing abit of age... so I redone them too.

Sunday cruise with the kids for the first time

Clearly driving too slow for the headcase of the family

 

[ossy2004]

And...breatheeeee
