  1. There’s a red one that been done over in Europe as well
  2. I have to agree, the fast back just doesn’t look right and the sedan is the ugliest of the lot
  3. Ok after using rtv to replace all the orings, I fitted anything that holds the water in and filled the water and happy to say there’s no leaks. I then pulled the radiator back out and fitted the timing belt and covers again. this is where it’s currently sits oh and the bar is back off 🤦🏼‍♂️
  4. Only cat I’ve got is a hello kitty cushion sitting in the back seat
  5. Pretty sure all gtst had clear and gtr had amber
  6. 100% it’s a very normal approach, it can be bought from Cbc bearings off the shelf. you’re just not supposed to have a gap where the 2 ends meet
  7. No its just a flat oring and the bits that protrude are where it wasn’t touching, also that join runs straight through the actual water gallery and my guess is the water runs straight through it
  8. Yeah that groove is where the join for the side plate is and it’s just an oring that ended up snapped like that because of the groove. yeah I had the shits and just ripped it off despite not having the correct shoes lol
  9. The engine is stripped down and the housing removed this oring is the the culprit (so I thought) and I smeared it with rtv and fit it back on. A few days later I fitted the parts that allowed me to fill the water and out comes the water again 😡turns out by doing what I did I just moved the leak further up the block
  10. A friend had his car painted by kass bodywork’s and the finish is gorgeous
  11. I hadn’t got much of a chance to look at it properly as it was dark when I filled the water. When I finally did it appears to be coming from behind the housing that the water pump and thermostat attach to.
  12. And no I didn’t pressure test it, at least it didn’t come back out as fast as I put it in but still didn’t require any pressure
  13. I wish it it was that easy, being a billet block there’s no Welch plugs in it and pretty much every line under there is gone now and the remaining water hoses are bmrs because of converting it to dbw
  14. the radiator didn’t take to long and arrived pretty close to the estimated time that they gave me
  15. It’s the hypertune one, they give you the option of being in front of or behind the strut tower.
  16. I’m going to have to because I ripped it heap of stuff of the other day and am talking to a fabricator to change a bunch of things I thought in todays market your car would fetch more then that, if not it would Al pay be worth sending it back to Japan and selling it to a collector over there
  17. Definitely loved it, we spent a week in Tokyo this time and still think we could spend another 2 week there just seeing thing we missed. business sounds fun, what type of industry is it in? I’ve basically just been working and building that same stupid car that every time I get close to finishing it I change something and send myself 10 steps backwards lol. Have you still got the dr30?
  18. Was great, we are going back at the beginning of may. what have you been doing lately?
  19. No definitely not, they built some pretty awesome looking cars with that ruler 😍
  20. One old and one new cover just to see the difference More brand new timing cover bolts and all the covers on just to see how it looks complete i didn’t get photos but after this I fitted the radiator hoses and cooler pipe and then preceded to fill it with coolant guess I have an issue 😡
  21. I was hoping to have it ready for the Bathurst cruise but I think just that went out the window. I’ll do a bit if an update when I can
  22. wiring is finished At the same time the bay got painted I got the purple set of covers stripped and then painted in r33 midnight purple, the photo doesn’t really do it justice I didn’t like all one colour look and took the pant off the letters with some wet and dry. Also you can spy the GTRs new home in the background
