Hi, I'm Emma. Signed up to the forum when I worked with Rabster last year, but just never got round to saying anything because I don't drive :thumbdown:

Anyway I was speaking to Hami yesterday about this club and thought I'd show my face as I recommended it! He also came up with a great idea about getting a few of the different model Skylines together for a photo shoot - What better place to find those other models I reckon.

Oh yeah I'm a photographer! Nice to meet you all.

Seat related help in the Northant's/MK area
by el_bandido, 08-01-2020, 09:13 PM
I need a favour, I need to check to see if my bride rails bolt up to recaro SR 3 seats. I'm located at South Northants, so anyone on that area who doesn't mind me showing up with a seat rail and seeing if it fits theirs please get in touch!

I'm about to purchase a very cheap pair of seats but I don't want to be stuck with them if the don't fit. Let me know ASAP, there's a beer in it for whoever helps Big Grin

I've had a look on google, but as my rails don't officially seem to exist (has SO on the rail, but I think they are RO's) I need some help!

Hami's r33 GTST W.I.P.
by Hami, 08-01-2020, 07:32 PM
Well I am first UK owner of the car and well I started to fix her up after a while, and its well over due to tell the truth, Here is what I have done so far:
- Full stage 1
- GTR style FMIC,
- Cross over pipe,
- HKS Air filter,
- z32 AFM
- Full decat exhaust system,
- Tein suspension,
- New brakes,
- Blitz manual boost,
- turbo wind-down,
and a few other bits that I cant mind of the top of my head but I will post up as I come to think of them,

Here is some of the work I have done so far:
Old Vs New brakes:

[Image: IMG_1412.jpg]
[Image: IMG_1424.jpg]
[Image: IMG_1414.jpg]
[Image: IMG_1426.jpg]

after failing MoT I replaced the o2 Sensor:
[Image: IMG_1407.jpg]

Once I got it passed he MoT stage I started on the Engine bay:
[Image: 8171d8ac.jpg]
[Image: 953c5400.jpg]

I stripped it down one and started to tidy her up:
[Image: IMG_1718.jpg]
[Image: IMG_1719.jpg]
[Image: IMG_1721.jpg]
[Image: 9bc3e15c.jpg]

Now for the tidying up part:

[Image: 97aedf3a.jpg]
[Image: c6c7e7cb.jpg]
[Image: c099261d.jpg]
[Image: 8d51d17a.jpg]

And then arrived my bag off goodies =D
[Image: 27d01b26.jpg]

Since it was ready to get rebuilt I thought I would get it sorted and ready:
[Image: 7ba4725f.jpg]

And finally:
[Image: 64939820.jpg]

Still got allot planned for her but got to wait for Parts to come up on forums etc before doing the rest of the work, Next steps will be replacing standard Camber arms etc for Adjustable ones etc, and tidy up the boot (retrimming it myself).

Mazda Eunos Roadster........My New Project :-)
by Bandit, 08-01-2020, 07:01 PM
Finally picked up another toy to play with :thumbup: been searching for something cheap and cheerful for a few weeks now and found this on ebay,

The seller had advertised it as a Mazda RX5 Roaster, and it never had any views in the 5 days it was on there :confused1: i only found it by looking for something else so added it to my watch list? And last Sunday i put a bid in for the £500 starting price to see what would happen? and i won it :thumbup::thumbup:Big GriniscoStu:

So today i went over to see it and pick it up, all of 6 miles away :laugh: it hadn't been started for over 6 months, so took a battery with me and put it on, and to my surprise it started on the 2nd turn of the key! Ran a bit rough for the first few mins then ticked over great, took it for a quick spin round the block and paid for it?

The bodywork was covered in a layer of dust and was very discoloured, looked quite pink but after a wash it looked better, the front end has been resprayed above the number plate and is a lot darker, but not hard to sort out and there are a few nicks and knock around the bumpers, but the rest is pretty good for a car that's 22years old?

Few pics after a wash, and also started to clean the paint a bit to see what i have to play with?

You can see the difference in the paint here, used Mequiars Paint Cleaner Wax on the front end that i picked up at the meet yesterday......

Passenger side after the paint cleaner, rear end very oxidised....
[Image: maz8.jpg]

[Image: maz1.jpg]

Bonnet before.....

Bonnet after cleaning...

Engine bay is pretty clean, but that will change soon and hopefully it'll be a lot better (shiny parts Big Grin )
[Image: maz2.jpg]

Momo Race steering wheel, and chrome bits....
[Image: maz5.jpg]

TT Style Chrome 4 point roll bar....
[Image: maz4.jpg]

Starting to look better already? its fitted with the MOMO race steering wheel, Clifford Concept G4 alarm system, BBS wheels, chrome heater vent surrounds, chrome door handles, chrome gear stick surround, chrome handbrake lever, the hood is only 7 month old and its the Mohair hood not the canvas type, Even the Air con works :thumbup: So got a few bits on it to start me off, and think i got a bit of a bargain to be honest :thumbup:

The only problems i've found so far are, drivers electric window doesn't work but sounds like its just stuck? Passenger side window very slow, heater is a bit intermittent, front bumper wants a respray, wheel centre caps missing, and that's pretty much it :thumbup1: Drives very well and had a big smile on my face bringing it home, even had the roof down, handles amazing and even had 3/4s of a tank of fuel in it :lol:

Will give it a service asap and take it for an MOT, so i know its safe and road worthy after sitting for a bit of time, the sills seem fine from what i can tell (common problem), had a good knock around them and seem very hard with no soft spots or rust showing?


What do ya think??? :whistling:
