[inhumane]

and yes the hood is not secured yet, i have a set of hood pins on ze way

[DrMango]

Nice hood. What make is it? I'm not too familiar with exterior stuffz.. I love R33s

Kyle

[mcfly]

I was just about to say you need some hood pins. Are you going to do anything with your grill?

[inhumane]

mcfly, hood pins literally just arrived at my door today too lol yea i have a grill in vancouver im going to pik up with my front bumper, its a gtr style

kyle, its a seibon TT style...pricey but damn it is well made...no flaws what so ever and smooth as a girls...well nvm lol

[DrMango]

HAHA got ya;)
What kind of pins you go with, generic or the flush style ones? Seibon is the best fitting products I've seen. Whats the hood to fender adjustment like?

Kyle

[inhumane]

generic pins on my budget lol

sorry, hood to fender meaning how it fits along the sides?

[DrMango]

Yes sir!

Kyle

[inhumane]

it fits perfect pretty much everywhere...only problem i had was the screw heads on the screws that came on the hood too small so it would slide through the cars lever...a couple washers did the trick though :D

[rb-racer]

Any plans for it?

[inhumane]

yup, intake manifold and fmic in about 2 weeks

next winter....top mountttttt yay

[DrMango]

What manifold did you go with?

Kyle

[inhumane]

i went with godspeed...

[DrMango]

I don't know much about them? Did you pick it up from BrianV8? How was it cost wise vs the Greddy and such?

Kyle

[inhumane]

yea brian got it for me...no compaarison in price...about 1000 for a greddy that i was looking at and well 300 for the godspeed...that was on his 25% off sale but still nothing beats it

[DrMango]

Wow thats a really good price. Wish it was as easy for us RB20 guys. Are you planning to install it yourself?

Kyle

[mcfly]

I don't know much about them? Did you pick it up from BrianV8? How was it cost wise vs the Greddy and such?

Kyle

I wouldn't buy shit from a jobless broke guy living at his parents home.

[inhumane]

Wow thats a really good price. Wish it was as easy for us RB20 guys. Are you planning to install it yourself?

Kyle

yeap doing it and also a fmic all myself...and 2 buddys haha ones got a good shop to get it all done at, fit the intercooler and such

wow mcfly so much hatred llol

[inhumane]

i guess i should add guys, i had another r33 before this one, i unfortunately crashed it...it was a late night coming home from a family dinner, coming along our highway here, a raccoon comes across the road, i slam on my brakes(yes i shoulda hit it) but i swerved 3 times and then into a ditch...front end was totalled and some frame damage, got written off by icbc for a healthy amount(more than i paid) and so i got this one

[DrMango]

That seems to be the norm for ICBC. I don't understand because they always bitch about the cost of claims. Its their own doing.

I can't bring myself to support any of the sponsors on GTRC anymore. I have so many connections for low prices, now that I pulled my head out of my ass and realized GTRC isn't the end all for parts.

FMIC and plenum is a pretty easy job if you have all the bits and pieces like your gasket and such. FMIC is pretty straight forward once you mark where to cut your hole and get that done.

Kyle

[inhumane]

yep got the gasket too, it should be about a two full day job cuz i wanna do minor things too such as spark plugs, rad flush, oil change adn maybe upgrade my coilpacks

and with icbc it seems if your story isnt fishy they cooperate somewhat, but a guy here posted a thread on gtrc in the western subforum about a not so nice experience with them

[DrMango]

Yeah we've all heard the stories of evil ICBC striking the unexpecting guys..

You having troubles with your coil packs or just want to see better spark?

Kyle

[inhumane]

no troubles as of yet but yea pretty much just a bit better spark and reliability... its winter too id rather do em now instead of in the summer when i wanna be driving

[inhumane]

heres a bit of a new look for the car
ill be taking the spoiler, skirts and bumper off and sand em down to paint em white for now
im stoked bout it

finger smudges on the camera so its a tad bit fuzzy

[mcfly]

oh yum, the whole white blue thing you have going on is hot.
what are you doing for a front bumper?

[inhumane]

im waiting on one to come in its like this one, kind of a knock off :P lol
but its 2 months away
http://www.luxurysports.co.nz/images/bodykits/m_sports_r33_2dr.jpg

so until then im running a GTR one, i just have to modify the brace to fit the N1 ducts :D

[king_cobra]

its gonna look sweet when the kit is painted up.

what size rims are on there now and what suspension setup do you have?

[inhumane]

theyre 17' OZ rims and right now chopped springs with newSR struts, thats what it came with and once i have money im going coilovers woohoo

[DrMango]

Yeah coilovers will be a huge improvement over the chopped springs lol. The kit looks good. I hope I can find a bumper soon. Where did you get yours from?

Kyle

[inhumane]

i guy in vancouver thats doing a group buy on R33 bumpers let me choose one, im not sure where theyre from though lol

[DrMango]

Damn. Okies. Im just not having much luck.

Kyle

[inhumane]

i could ask him to look into where you could find one, send me a PM with the bumper you want and ill see what i can do

[DrMango]

I wanted to buy an R32 GTR style bumper made to fit on a GTS without changing to GTR fenders.
I think for the same price I can just keep my OEM GTR bumper and buy aluminum GTR fenders and be ahead in the end. I might as well just do that.

Kyle

[inhumane]

oh i see i thot u were looking into an A/M one, yea im not sure what replica r32 ones go for

[inhumane]

tiny little update on the front of the cars look...still working on skirts

http://i913.photobucket.com/albums/ac333/inhumane-R33/IMG_0032.jpg?t=1265057168

[inhumane]

finally all put together, shitty paint on the kit but it makes it look white till i can get a good full car job done :D

[Zacho]

Looks pretty deece, would look awesome with some 9.5/10J wheels though :p

Any engine bay shots with the new manifold installed?

[inhumane]

oh it will have some different wheels once i can save some money up :D

not yet, it hasnt been done, im waiting on the intercooler to arrive then ill swap manifolds and mount intercooler :D

[DrMango]

The Impala is really starting to look good man. Like the kit from what I see. Cant wait to see the engine stuff get on the way

Kyle

[inhumane]

thanks man, yea im getting anxious what the engine will look like when its all done :D :D :D

[M13]

wait that's not an Impala!

Yes bigger wheels and engine bay shot please.

GJ

[inhumane]

god ammit ive had it this whole time and thot it was an impala, well bak to the dealer lol

im hopefully gonna hve an engine bay shot soon it looks but ugly right meow

[charles620]

nice kit. now times for better wheels..

[Allan74]

Wow. You're car is looking hot.

I don't know if I should actually admit this or not, so I will say it like this:

If someone ever held a gun to my head and forced an R33 on me, I would want it to look like yours ;)

[inhumane]

haha that means alot allan! see the r33's can look good with some modifications :D

yes, wheels are a must pretty damn quick, along with coilovers

[charles620]

*cough* I have R33 coilover *cough*

[inhumane]

for sale? what ones?

[charles620]

It's HKS Hipermax Performer, fully height adjustable. I thought they were for R32 when i got them but they are actually for R33, so yea, its for sale.

[inhumane]

PM me with how much, ive heard good things about those

[Allan74]

haha that means alot allan! see the r33's can look good with some modifications :D

yes, wheels are a must pretty damn quick, along with coilovers

You won over my heart with the white body w/carbon hood combo ;)

The wheels will be like icing on the cake when you are done.....BUT THEY BETTER BE BLACK ! ;)

[dah_hunter]

It's HKS Hipermax Performer, fully height adjustable. I thought they were for R32 when i got them but they are actually for R33, so yea, its for sale.

are those the ones you got from Adam? back in the day?

[king_cobra]

cars looking sick. thats how a white r33 is supposed to look like (so far). sure beats my boring stock ride..

i can contest to the HKS hypermax. phenomenal suspension. i'd buy it again if had to.

[inhumane]

You won over my heart with the white body w/carbon hood combo ;)

The wheels will be like icing on the cake when you are done.....BUT THEY BETTER BE BLACK ! ;)

Carbon is a must with white, it just looks so right :D..the wheels will be either same greyish color or black :D

[aldyguy]

Any mechanical mods done yet? Great car, I got the exact same on in black lol.

[inhumane]

boost controller, exhaust, filter is on now but as soon as the FMIC arrives ill have that and a front face intake manifold

post pics of yours :D

[flipridah17]

Nice looking ride man!

[aldyguy]

http://i913.photobucket.com/albums/ac333/inhumane-R33/IMG_0032.jpg?t=1265057168

How are you cooling the turbo?

[Zacho]

I'm blind!!

You need to fill that massive bumper gap there inhumane. Aldyguy I imagine he is using the stock sidemount intercooler in the passenger side fenderwell.

[inhumane]

yup its on the right side there you can kinda see it...oh i have it at my house right now waiting to be installed...Blitz LM V-Spec FMIC, shes a beaty but im gonna get my car through this inspection BS first

[Rblove26]

hey inhumane, im new and i noticed you mentioned future plans for a top mount (turbo i assume), ive been researching and found some top mount kits and was wondering if there really was some benefits to a top mount (power, response etc)...i have a gts-t as well and wondering if its worth it or is the stock location just fine?
thanks

[inhumane]

well it really depends on what turbo your going to go with..you will find when you go A/M most of the turbos wont fit on the bottom mount..there are some that will but they are generally just for small-medium increases in power. if you want big numbers, from what ive been reading i would go top mount

maybe someone can explain better cuz im no geniius at this yet

[Rblove26]

ok thanks, im not planning on going with a large turbo upgrade yet as i just got the car, wanna get the basics done first...like a complete tune up, all new fluids and a few little cosmetics first...but the more i can find out now then i can get a sense of direction

[inhumane]

thats kinda the same for me, im slowly buildy up to that but my financial situation is holding me down ATM
