The Car was still set up from Targa Tas in 2012 so the ride height was really quite high. The only issue was with those wheels if I lowered the car at all it would sit on the guards at the rear :S Solution? Get the rear guards cut and re-welded!! Jerry at J Racing has come on board and kindly offered to do the work. So the car retreated back to the trailer and over it went. While it was away i decided to do a few things to the trailer that I have been meaning to do since I bought the thing. First on the list was to rewire the trailer plug because the Electric brakes would randomly not work depending on how many hours you spent jiggling the connector. Also i wanted to modify the front cowling on the trailer. i know it is excellent at stopping the front of the car from being damaged but the fact is it makes everything else much more difficult. You have to climb under it to tie the car down!! So off it comes: Complete with ALDI Winch!!! While the trailer was sitting there I had an idea for a tyre/wheel rack too..... Something like this just a little bit further up the slope so it doesn't impede where the car sits. It was time to pick the car up from J racing over in Fyshwick. All of two days after I dropped it off..... Awesome! I was surprised at how much they got out of the wheel arch, Gives me heaps more room to play with height adjustment. So next job was pop the car back on our hoist and rip out the most likely knackered HSD coilovers and play around with ride height until I was happy. The new wheels will get a treatment of second hand slicks in the next few days so I can pop them on and test fit. But for now I am pretty happy with where it is sitting. We aren't going to be able to get the car much lower without major modifications. We have some VERY serious bits and pieces to go on this car, I have been lucky that I have some fantastic sponsors behind me helping with the project as I sure wouldn't have been able to do half of this without them!! Mainly TROJAN Motorsport, easily the best Skyline builder in Canberra, or any car for that matter. J RACING, awesome quality and fantastic turn around times, have already started designing aero for me!!! RACING READY, run by a top bloke who is keen to help in any way he can, if you need any Motorsport related gear from comms to race suits, talk to RACING READY!! To give you guys a little idea of what is in store let me say this: Hi Octane Alcon Trust JUN RB30 MCA PPG ENKEI Winmax Aeroflow Motec NPC Dunlop Precision Stay Tuned Guys!!!! Heres a teaser

This was also a perfect time to test fit the Dry Sump tank I bought off FATZ: Looks good to me: Disconnecting everything in the engine Bay so that John from Trojan Motorsports can remove the engine: The car was then trailered to Trojan so we could remove the motor and gearbox: Out comes the Gearbox/Clutch/Tailshaft: Then the engine wasn't far behind: At this stage I changed my plans for the wiring of the car. Initially i was just going to modify the stock loom to lesson the workload. But I like wiring...... So out it comes!!!! After my demolition session, i took the car home and had a play around with wheels and guards. OK so they weren't going to clear with those guards..... So I bought these: R33 GTR front guards, risers and bonnet. Hopefully they will clear the wheels and also lose us some weight thanks to the nice light alloy GTR bonnet. Not like the GTST boat Anchor.

OK so the first thing we did when we decided on a plan was tear the poor little car apart!! First out with the old Roll cage: Then a new Full Weld in tower to tower cage went in and was painted: Then it was time for wiring.....
