Most of what i've seen here isnt dumb. Its all good go fast shit. Dumbest thing i have seen is the guy advertising the 34 with a fully sic ulleh sr 20 in the bay. WTF!

should read:

it's all good and looks like it could and should (but doesn't) go fast shit.

His daily driver is an E46 M3.

He has more money then sense, nice guy. Weird conversion for an R34 though.

what the hell is wrong with some of u guys. fmic's on mercedies...oh no :P

it is called progress, if no one pushed the boudaries, no one would develop new concepts.

i remember ages ago a silvia with a rb26dett was considered 'crazy' now it is the norm.

really are u angry at these concepts?!?!?

I love good new concepts.. I was just questioning the sanity of somebody who grabs a late model merc and cuts it up.

My point was simply that some mods go hand in hand.. like a WRX motor in a combi.. both have boxer engines.. similar sizes, just that the WRX motor is much more refined and is actually reliable.. the rotor is just a weird choice.. but still a much better choice than the stock junker!

so take that approach, y cut up a new merc? sure pimp the fat VIP ride out. bling the butt off it. 20" rims, black tint is cool.. but,

I fail to see how fat VIP cars with a massive shiny FMIC is progress!!

Totally trashed the whole look. couldn't he fit a water/air cooler in it?

So if you wonna pay big bucks for a merc and cut it up to fit the FMIC.. go for it. U better hope that somebody else thinks its a cool idea when u try and sell it! That isn't progress.

Progress would be fitting the water/air cooler, or a side mount supercharger. a total stealth look, nobody would know you have messed with the car.. Keep the super lux VIP image.. just u added some horsepower.

otherwise it just looks like a lame boy-racer attacked it.

WHY IS THAT..

No Mark, He had the motor built for the Silvia (04FAT) WHICH HE still ownes I might add. It was a good idea at the time, as he already has a built SR20 and teh conversion hasnt been done around here. He doesn't like the car that much and wished he just built an rb for the GTT now.

04FAT which now has a pretty basic SR20 is still for sale.

can u fit a bent 8 into an s2000? Now that would be cool.. and the little bugger would actually go,

instead of making heaps of noise! lol. then add boost!

I saw a proto-type V8 (i think was a ducatti)a few years back. It was 1000cc, varable intake manifold the works.. reved to 11000rpm or higher.. I always thought that would transplant into a suzuki mity boy really well!

Thats different!

V8 mini's take the cake

Do a youtube search on "V8 mini" and see what the nut bags do with em...

Some are really tough race cars and you would not want to take them on, others are major bodge jobs and you would not want to be near them at all...

      R34 seats in R32 with aftermarket seat rails

      By PLYNX · Posted

      Oh very very true ! I'm honestly thinking about taking my entire R33 series 3 red stitch GTR interiour out of my car, selling it and buying a small house !  I spotted as pair of R400 GTR seats on GumBay on the interweb and they were asking around the 12K mark !

      A few pop up now and then, but you're right, definitely not as often or as cheap as it was back then. Even non GTR seats are a joke these days, pretty sure you could have gotten one for a zinger box or pack of Winnie blues.

      How much roughly to convert stock r32gtr to single high mount turbo + ecu and tune

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      -9s are discontinued supposedly. But you can still get Nismo R3 turbos which are something like a -7 but subtly different? -7s are also available. HKS GTIII-SS and GTIII-2530 are also available but they're journal bearing MHI turbos.

      Late to this party but here is your go to shop in perth - https://www.facebook.com/gsautoworksau GTSBOY is on the money cost wise, drive in and out will cost you 15-30k or more.    Some items that will save you money  - plug in link ecu g4x is much cheaper than haltech.   -Pulsar turbo, seem to be "OK" now, never used one myself You really don't have to build the motor, E85, headgasket, studs and a good RB26 will live for ever.    Swapping over the twins won't save much as you still need ecu, tune, fuel system etc.

      Welcome back to the scene! Godzilla Motorsports were well regarded back in the day.  My GT-R had work done there prior to my ownership.   SRS (Street Race Solutions) in Toowoomba worth a look.  They've built some pretty wild Skylines. Their YouTube channel is comedic to watch!  I'm sure they're all on the glass BBQ but they get shit done! 🤣
