Thanks for the welcome Frankly I have been too busy at work to enjoy much me time so I am trying to get something to get me back into making a little time to do something that isn't work! You are right the KM001 is cheap enough but I really like an underdog that I can get going again to a nice standard. It's hard to explain really.

As per the title I am after a little project so the tattier the better. I would prefer something complete but I don't mind it already in bits as I am happy to work on them. Non-runners would be fine too.

PMed you dude. I am interested.

Looks like a good clean example!

I would have a current GTR just to avoid the rust issues, but they do take the fun away from driving a bit due to the amount of electronic assistance you have. Just as a very obvious example they don't have a manual option at all. I know it's for efficient gear changes but where's the fun in that?

The 33 with it's new friend the 350Z!

After reading this topic I have always wanted a even bigger 1/5 this could be a bit of fun!

Bit slow on the updates as I can't stop buying cars, I just picked up a MK1 MX5 for £300, all because the previous owner thought the clutch had blown when it was just a slow leak from the slave cylinder, a little top up of oil and away the car went! But for the time being here are some updates, a little known fact about 33's is they had some strange optional extra's one was a rear windscreen wiper which mine thankfully doesn't have and the other is a boot lid carpet, these are extremely rare but the other day I managed to find one and fit it, makes the boot look that little bit better! Next up, I did think I had taken a before photo of the old steering wheel but when I went to upload the photos I only had the afters so here is the nice new steering wheel and boss setup. It makes a world of difference driving it now as it's around 30% smaller than the standard wheel. And then one final one of us in convoy waiting to get into Beaulieu Motor Museum Simply Jap event which I am sure some of you would have been at.

Small update before a larger one, I am having a new steering wheel fitted this weekend. To replace the horrible Gen1 massive standard with a ATC Volanti Sportivi custom wheel. Getting a boss is proving to be a bit of a pain in the arse but I will update with pictures later on.

I have been naughty and forgot to update this So another thing that a 21 car is brilliant at doing as we all know is having crappy lighting so I thought I would fit some HID's and LED's in replacement for the dash bulbs. I am looking for the official 33 GTR Xenons however they are very rare and when they do come up they are about £1000! Before After (not the best picture, turns out the iPhones don't like night photography with bright lights) A quick picture of the before and after HID conversion, not so easy on a GTR as it was the Coupe as the GTR has a seal that covers all of the cabling which runs directly out of the cap, so you have to either not run the cap (no way) or make the seal hole bigger (yes way) Next up, I ordered some Alcantara gators as the original leather ones were looking a little worse off. In the background you can see the windscreen washer bottle, I took it out for steaming. Onto even more fun stuff it turns out that the exhaust on the car that is came with was mild steel and it had a hole in the backbox Soooo not one to scrimp I decided to go for the best/most expensive/LOUDEST exhaust you can get for the 33 GTR. The Tomei Titanium Ti Expreme. After about a month of waiting one of these came So back on the ramps the car went! And just some cool pictures of recent events Ace Cafe GTR OC meet Bromley Pageant Just a random cool rear lights

It's funny seeing this 5ive again, I am surprised it looks so much like it used too still Keep up the good work looking after it buddy.

Unless you go silly and buy something that's a 50 or 70.....in fact I wonder if development has started on some large engines for them yet.

It looks brilliant I cannot wait to get one In fact it will be nice being back to petrol!

I wonder what the landed UK price will be.

So the sets my wife and family purchased for me this Christmas are:- Millennium Falcon 75105 Captain Phasma 75118 Darth Vader 75111 Obi-Wan Kenobi 75109 Rey's Speeder 75099 WALL•E 21303 They are almost all done, what do you want photos of first?

BUMP

Talking about the Ghostbusters fireshouse, I put that on order right away!

Bump, list updated

Have it for £40 bud, how does that sound? You will love the condition it is in

Both good points. I am just not willing to let a fully working car go for that little
