love it big boy. it looks just like I pictured it all those months ago. hard to believe it wasn't that long ago we were standing in the back of my truck ripping boxes open! and now all those boxes = 1 car. :D

it will be the star of the show wherever you take it mate. let's please take it to japan and show them what some hairy backed foreigners can build. :D (note, using the best japanese parts of course...) :D

lol, they don't need luck, sea captain. they have a GTR.... :wacko:

Yep I've had my arse handed to me plenty by Mark and Russ. Although we have done lots of improvements to the boat to catch up to their R32 times, possibly, then they sold it and went into hyperdrive with this R34 beast, and moved the goal post again. Go Russ and Mark, no good standing still, your hair gets swept forward from everyone passing you, or maybe catching up is my goal.

HEY GUYS

Sorry for the lack of updates, really busy getting it ready at the moment!

engine has now got a basic run in tune and hoping to get it on the track this afternoon to run it in for a few kays.

we are running out of time and lots still to do, so we will still be doing initial testing at oran park on saturday.

i will post some more pics shortly.

we have been busy trying to get undertrays and front bumper & glass etc in the car , along with dash configuration and wiring. etc etc etc.

i was happy with the initial dyno start up , we had no dramas at all and it seems like boost will come on very very early, we will know shortly.

cheers russ

      Rusty roof repair

      Sane enough. Remove the roof liner, because the acid will go everywhere.

      Rusty roof repair

      By PranK · Posted

      Thanks guys, I really appreciate the help and experienced opinions.  I have spent a lot of my life working on boats so I'm pretty good with fibreglass. I'll take everybody's advice in here;  I'll cut a little more of the 2nd layer away as it's a bit crunchy rust and also it's sitting high now. Then I'll wire brush it all a bit to get off anything loose, then I'll soak the bejesus out of it all in rust converter. I'll make sure to get a little hose piece and feed it into all the holes and gaps between the roof layers. Then I'll fibreglass up the holes.  Then I'll get a pallet of filler and mix it with 3 buckets of hardener and hope that is enough to build up the roof corner.  Does that sound sane? Is one type of filler better than others for this?

      My goals for it atm are to get it registered, respray and some mild power gains eventually... I picked up the car from an elderly gentleman near the border of NSW and VIC, its honestly a bit rough and looks like its been driven on a farm (because there was so much dirt underneath). Last week I dropped the subframe and emptied the old fuel out + added a new fuel pump (think the old one went bad from old fuel). Now I'm onto fixing a coolant leak at the rear of the engine + adding a new radiator as the old one is corroded. After that i have a new bumper, coils (as the old were leaking) and lots more

      The Evolution Of "night Fury"

      Love this so much! Please post a photo when you have a bike on the trailer.  I was a little bit worried about having a tow bar on the Skyline, but having it hidden behind the number plate is genius
