Just want to see what sort of Track/Race/Rally Skylines are around. Throw up some spec's if you want.

No streeters please.

This is my budjet build club rally car, setup for gravel and tarmac. -Just running a stock RB20DE until I build up another unit with some power. It's got adustable suspension, 6 point cage, harnesses etc and is fully race and road legal for around $6K NZ.

mine's not a skyline, but it goes ok :D

It's a budget 100% backyard build, using mostly various types of leftover factory Nissan parts from different models.

SR20DE

Did 1:09 flat at Wakefield, (which I am hoping to beat on Saturday) and should be well under my previous 1:54.8 at Eastern Creek in a couple of weeks.

It's currently road registered, but won't be for a whole lot longer. I'm planning to run in Improved Production next year if all goes according to plan.

Ah goodie was about to create a thread like this myself, the more pics the better from any angle of any car as im getting ideas for my current build.

I damaged my r32 gtr drag racing so I bought another street gtr and have decided to keep this damaged 1 as my dedicated circuit car. So far im only in the process of stripping it down (prob another week or so of that) then I need to weld up the damage, paint the interior, boot and engine bay and get some and then start assembling it again.

Nothing exciting but here are some pics of where im at so far:

Hopefully it's back on the road by Xmas time.

Most of you know it, Blown VH45 Powered 33 on methanol, full andra cage ran 10.17 to date on stock internals, new engine is a few weeks from completion hoping for some good 9's out of it.

well credit to Louie at Xclusive colour for the paint job - we asked him for something that would stand out.....

but the stickers are crazy....Kel designed and cut them on a $600 ebay special vinyl cutter

how much was spent?

I believe its gotten so high now that we dont keep track.......if you dont think about it, you cant lose sleep over it.

House in the country.....i was thinking more along the lines of a nice apartment in the city :D

Does yours go simon? Ours goes when its not bogged down with problems.

    • Oh and my rear arms may need some attention too.    
    • Bushings are almost done. Check the date stamp 😂 these are likely the original bushings with 27 years and 243ks on them.     Was too dark to get a pic of the worst one.
    • Porous blocks are a known issue on something like a Porsche M96, it's not really something I've ever heard of on an RB26. It's possible what people thought was a "porous block" was really a cracked block that they just didn't spot the crack on.
    • This is a controversial subject really, the whole power vs fun thing I mean And this is the main reason I got back into a MX5 Of the last few notable daily cars I've owned whilst I have frequented SAU R33 GTS-t: fun, but because I'm a idiot I modified well past a reliable fun car and ended up hating it, although that was my fault because I tried to have a daily cruiser and race car all in one, the family called it the sometimes car, because sometimes it was working, sometimes it was broken, gladly sold it NB MX5: brilliant car, thrashed the Bejebus out of it, but, again, was stupid and deleted the air con, power steering and stripped the interior out, whilst still fun, and reliable, and super cheap on consumables, it was not a fun place to be going on long cruises, I did love it, but basically every family member hated going anywhere in it, sadly sold it 2015 WRX STI: soulless thing that looked like your average Kia sedan and had that horrible boxer engine with glass ringlands, the family did like it though, that thing was one of my stupidest purchases and I still regret it 2017 Toyota 86: 😪 if I didn't crash it, I would probably still have it, it was a fun little thing, even with that horrible boxer engine, the family did like it, the only reason I didn't get another 86, or, BRZ was the boxer engine, I should have learnt after owning the STI, but I'm a idiot VX SS: great cruiser, fits the whole family, and was fast as.....in a straight line, but a big fat thing, so no enjoyment throwing it around corners, the family was unimpressed with the whole boganness of if, but they did admit it was a comfy place to sit on long cruises As for the NC, I feel it is perfect for what I want, or need out of of a car, whether I'm cruising the Hwy, back roads, twisties or peak hour traffic, the Mrs doesn't mind driving it either, or cruising in it as well, although she does bump her head of the roof nearly every time she gets in, which is farking hilarious, and the kids love taking it for a thrash as well So basically, I've had constantly more fun, and way less headache and heartache, both on the track and on the street, in low powered cars,  go figure.....LOL One thing though, the Mrs has stated that the cams have made the exhaust sound much louder, which they have, but it doesn't bother me, in fact, I actually like it, but, to negate any future comments from the Minister for War and Finances I may look at some changes to the rear muffler set-up to drop the volume down a tad to appease her when we are out and about in it
    • You will need to extend the turbo inlet pipe somehow, which could/might be done with silicone/rubber pipe, but might need steelwork, depending on your intake. And you will need to change the pipework on the outlet in teh same way, but this is more likely to need steelwork.
