it's an R33 
,and it's stupidly expensive!!
i've had to replace the coilovers,buy new alloys/tyres,take the turbos & manifolds off to replace one fubar'd gasket,got 2 fines for illegal plates (lettering was not UK legal),damaged the front end,brought a new 25 row oil cooler
i'm lucky to get 185miles to a tank full of 99 octane fuel,costs about £70 which is roughly $145 dollars i think
the starter motor let go last week,so going to take that off tomorrow and re-con it back up to scratch
i've been looking at GS's,really like that maroon red from the 2002 car's onwards i think it is,hopefully getting a new job soon aswell with much better pay,so within 6 month's or so i may be able to get one,and keep the skyline,unless i decide to put the damn thing on fire,just so much hassle
though also done a track event in it and i loved it,limited to 120mph and it gets there pretty quick,got a list of htings to do over the winter,and either keep it or sell it any maybe get an R34 GTR if things go well enough
sorry went on abit there.
regarding your dynamat,i'm guessing it's made a massive difference,do you get any rattles at all? i use to get some from the boot from my sub,i applied dynamat extreme to the boot and all the door's only,made it much quieter inside

spent bout 20 mins on phone with greg @ RE Audio sub is being rebuilt with some of the new technology for the 2011 subs....its kind of a prototype 
thicker coils, bigger terminals, and a few other things. its being rebuilt to a dual 2 ohm instead of the dual 4 ohm as i was gonna run 2 subs...
im looking at a specific box RE recommends and i have a few new pics to post of some things i have done but its a slow and steady process so this is the latest as of now
