F*RKIN YEH! Gun metal? Exciting times ahead! What's with all this talk of all the bits missing? You've got them all on your car anyway. Looks like a fun project mate. Envious that you get a bare base to build to perfection, which I am sure you will

Mate, these crate motors from Japland aren't really worth it. Just get a reliable local builder who builds them everyday to build you one. Job done and you've got recourse if things go pear shape.

Hi mate, It takes time to figure out who everyone is regardless of what online name they have. Rough location maybe but gender shouldn't matter. This isn't 1945. How will having "real" e-mail addresses possibly help? Most of us don't use our ISP assigned email address. That's very newbie and short sighted. If you want to communciate with a forum member, send a PM. If they think the PM is too creepy, or don't want to communicate, they'll ignore as is his/her right. Displaying "basic" info will not help you one bit when say looking for information on say why your aircon doesn't come on. Online handles have been used since before the Internet became popular. Welcome to the "Net".

I asked Racepace to set them up for handling. I haven't measured them however the lowest point of the car was a bit higher than 100mm. Most of the 32R's they have setup are almost identical height, including my current setup with the Racepace Teins. They can be lowered much more if you like for looks or even raised if required. The handling is superb. Some photos of height:

Looks good, what is the asking price?

3M double sided tape. I tried yanking it off and the bonnet starts to bend & give way first so it'll definitely stay on with just quality tape. There are also screws holes in the back but I didn't bother drilling holes into my bonnet.

Another item sitting around that I finally got around to putting on. Dunno why I didn't earlier. 10 minute install. Nismo Bonnet Lip

How long have you had it now?

Noice. how much was the new condensor and where did you get it from?

Offset? Looks pretty aggressive. I rike it a rot.

Nismo you say? Some of their stuff is very cool. My list. Engine (N1 based motor) Nismo AFM’s Nismo 600cc injectors Nismo In-Tank Fuel Pump Nismo Thermostat Drivetrain & Handling Nismo Coppermix Twin Plate Competition Clutch Kit Nismo Engine & Transmission mounts Nismo Front Brace (Brake Master Cylinder Brace built in) Nismo Rear Strut Brace Body Nismo Optional Genuine 3 Piece Side Skirts Nismo Optional Genuine Rubber Rear Pods N1 Front Bar with vents (Nismo?) Interior Nismo 320kph Speedo Nismo Duracon Shift Knob (Genuine) Optional Metal Footrest - this maybe Nissan optional but it's cool non-the-less. Had a Nismo radiator cap but gave that away to a mate as suspected leaking after 9+ years. On the list are Nismo F&R diffs. Now gotta get some Nismo floor mats. They are definitely cool. Edited : because we all love photos Strut bar has since been painted.

Keep the old shell and put it up on a Plinth in your backyard.

I reserve the right to stick one onto the existing fibreglass bootlid Hmmm actually........

sweet, what size did you end up going?

Nice re. the dash. It's been a while now eh? What is this workshop doing, building you a second GTR?

Price drop to $750. Very good coilovers for the price guys.

Thanks mate Went to Import Monster last weekend. A dangerous place for the wallet to be. Picked up some sticky AD08R's for track events. Can't wait to try them out. Will be needing some downforce this year. Time to put the standard boot lid + spoiler painted.

TE37's ("Touring Evolution"). Loved them ever since I laid eyes on them. Wheels changed over ready for the SAU Vic Motorkhana on the 28th. Happy I didn't sell the 17" 's. Can never have too many sets of these. What I lack in imagination with my wheel choice I will make up for in quantity. Another set in 10" wide classic bronze maybe? A great article on Speedhunters on TE37's. http://www.speedhunters.com/2013/05/touring-evolution-the-volk-racing-te37/

the one on RHDJapan made by Superior Auto Creative doesn't really appeal to me. Too chrome/bling compared to their other stuff. That one pictured looks to have been painted?

What area is the second photo showing? For 4-6K it'd be worth fixing if it's isolated to a few areas only, wouldn't it?

done!

Yeah that sort of stuff always goes down well with the Mrs.

Rookie question, sign up will be on the circuit club site 'morrow?

"These are early testing days, the rear driveshafts haven't been hooked up, so the whole system - internal combustion and flywheel - is driving the fronts alone. That's right, if they let the GT-R LM sing, it's a 1250bhp front-driver. And it might stay that way." http://www.topgear.com/uk/photos/nissan-le-mans-racer-lmp1-gt-r-explained-2015-02-09
