Hey all, just thought some of u might be interested, after quite a few years in the works Blacky is finally finished, thats not to say further developements are not in the works, but astheticaly and functionally shes done. She will be on display at Mini Jam as the sport compact class fears the extra few cylinders and therefor cannot race, but she and i have found our home in the super street class of racing, we have been fairly competetive and will be back again at the tin tops to have another go..

For those that dont know the thread in the NA section its the complete build diary of the car from when i first decided to give her a Nissan V8 heart. The link is to the last page with some completed interior piccies, with the rolld cage, custom cluster and harness'. For the street she will be identical but have two GTS-T seats and normal seat belts due to my engineer not liking harness's or fixed back seats.

Either way have a look and feel free to leave ne positive or negative comments.

What an awesome tale to tell the grandkids..... "...back in my day, there was this black beast, a R33 skyline with a supercharged V8..."

Well done, looks awsome, you should be very proud of yourself and eveyone who had a hand in making it possible!

    • Hi guys, planning to get 18x9 +25 in fronts and 18x10 +25 in rears been reading the whole thread and cant really find anything   Anyone know if these will fit a r34 gtt with no scrubbing or guard work needed?
    • They usually get made by hand as part of any such swap.
    • Was planning on getting an R35 MAF and the adapter, should this be okay? Also any idea where I could get my hands on an intake pipe?
    • I mean yes, if you're starting from scratch on an unknown engine yes you don't need to be doing all kinds of math in the background but if you're doing relatively minor changes like AFM + injectors + boost up with some aftermarket turbos it takes quite a bit of math if you want to do something like maintain OEM fuel + timing tables but compressed and then a bit more load scale up top. I think I've spent too much time working on big engineering nightmares though so I'm a big fan of trying to constrain the scope of whatever work I'm doing as much as possible and trying to get it right before moving on. For example, a local owner just did the usual E85 + single turbo conversion to his R32 GTR and nearly burned his car to the ground doing some spirited driving up the local mountains. Turbine is unshielded and too close to the hood insulation. It's tough to balance "just get the project done" and "seemingly small details can cause massive setbacks I'm not willing to deal with".
    • No idea about Neil's steering wheel, but I have the same behaviour in the Stagea. I doubt it has ever been messed with so might be normal. Indicating to turn right at a roundabout and correcting even a little bit to the left to go around will cancel the indicator. Never considered it an issue other than it being a bit odd.
