Ya skyline is awesome matey great to see it at the meets. Yeah you have to get 18 or 19s.Any plans for the body work?

Im thinking 18's for the car, but the price difference in wheels and tyres (245's all round) between 17's and 18's is quite a bit

I have some Nismo N1 Vents on order for the front bumper, but the rest of the bodywork is staying std

Get the power up and leave it looking std for the Wolf in sheeps clothing appearance

Yeah thats the only thing rubber is pricey. Ah very wise but at the end of the day you gotta skyline so anyone racin ya is gonna get left red faced!
I gotta mate whos done the same with his black R5.

Yer very sexy car stuy!!!!

Best shaped Skyline I reckon. I reckon you should stick with 17's, just out of personal preference, and it's good you're keeping the body standard, no-one's going to want to buy a hyper modded car in a few years, and it looks good enough.

Getting to that time of year where is time to change the coolant to have a higher concentration of antifreeze, so whilst doing it, Ive ordered some Samco Coolant hoses to replace the old rubber jobbies - should add a little more colour under the bonnet

cool man really want to see ur car u go the meets?

That is such a nice car, but is it possible to get clear/smoked indicators as that would finish the classy look off!!! i like the way your going for the standardish look because it aint like this is a corsa (no offence to corsa owners, this is a beautiful car that doesn't need adjusting....

Lol, I did think about clears, but only 1 company makes them - in japan, and they are £200 plus the postage

woah 200 smackeroons!!!! i reckon ya tint em ya self then, seriously it would make a hell of a differance!!!

Picked up a set of new wheels over the weekend, R33 GTR Wheels

Good Conti's all round and in general good nick.

Fingers crossed, Ive just managed to buy a pair of tubbys

A Pair of Hybrids, consisting of Sunny GTiR Compressor wheels, 360 degree bearings stagger gap rings. Each one of these should be capable of supporting 350bhp+ each

Also a pair of HKS turbo elbows, and a trust front pipe

Just waiting on a phone call to confirm I can have them

youre ****in nuts! hats off to that man

bloody hell mate. how far you going to take this car. 1000+ bhp
