I just started my R33 Nismo GTR a couple of days ago. I got it from HLJ. They have pretty good service. I just started sanding the body, and putting together the suspension, and slanted exhaust. Tell me whut u think so far, even though its not much, thanx.

Personally, I would paint it copper if it were mine and if I had that color, or any other menacing color.

Here is my nice slanted APEXi N1 Exhaust i made. I also made the custom pipe, cuz the stock pipe was dual, and now i just made it single. And if ur wondering whut the black thing on the exhaust is, its a wire to hold up the exhaust, like a real car, ill be fixing it, so that wont be there. Tell me whut u think of my exhaust? Thanx

exhaust doesn't look bad. lose the wire though. what did you make it out of?
also, just wondering, what's the point of saying "whut" when "what" is just as easy to type?

Whoa, Lay off the kid, he may lie, but its no reason to talk like that.
But still, WHAT is the point of writing WHUT when WHAT is just as easy to type, and it doesn't make you look like you can't spell?:confused:

Why don't you all let him spell the way he wants to, if he wants to write "whut" instead of "what" then he can, you dont see him bagging out on all you guys that write "u" instead of "you". BTW Models looking nice at the moment i woud personally paint it either silver or orange, orange with a black bonnet or hood will look sick, or if you go with gold i would still put the black bonnet, it is an Japanese car so make it look as Japanese as possible. In the end it all comes down to whatever you decide so don't feel you have to do my idea. Kepp us posted on the progress, and i love the exhaust!!!
