Mark And Russ's Super R34 Build Up

[Evocoop]

Hey Russ,

Finally found this thread. The 34 is looking the business.

I got my roll cage finished today and the dry sump has arrived. Thanks for talking me into that. Pretty happy with how it's all shaping up. I gotta start my own build tread for it. seems to be a good way to pick up some good ideas from the other guys.

Cheers

Coop.

Ps. A pic of my cage almost finished with new rear firewall.

hi coop,

cage looks very good. I see you have dry sump on the way and a PWR rad with oil heat exchanger like Russ's old one. hey if there is any 32 worth using as a blueprint for a fast reliable track R32 it's mark and russ's one!

and did you guys end up running the 33gtr like everyone was talking about?

[Beer Baron]

oh, I know the answer to this one. yes the 33 was run, but I'll leave it up to russ to give his thoughts on it. all I'll say is that a T51R is a tad different to the nice twin set-ups they are used to.

The R33 GTR also came to stretch it's legs yesterday at Timeattack with a T04Z....

Okay guys

finally an update!!

thought you might like to see how the r34 is coming along, still lots to do.

but we have done trial body fitting, engine and gearbox are in along with front and rear crossmembers and arms, most of the electric are done.

still needs suspension and engine management , all oil and fuel system etc etc etc

front wheel track will come out another 30 mm yet!

lots and lots of hours gone into this car already and so much more to do.

hope you like.

3L and twins - a man after my heart

Ive got rb30 and HKS GTRS's, even untuned its an amazing difference in comparison to twins on a 2.6L, you'll be very happy

Thanks for the info

And the big question im sure a lot of guys here are wondering; With so much left to do, do you think you'll have it at superlap?

[Marlin]

Just saw it up the road, I'm gonna go drool on it.
