respect for the work put in so far man, love to see it when its finished :) and satin black maybe not matte? matte black sometimes has that idea attached that people dont want you to look to closely if you know what i mean.. after youve put all this work in be proud of it and paint it a bit more stand out colour than matte black imo. i mean as people said itd look fkn tough as nails stealth fighter in matte black but yeah, my 2cents.

Not to much to update with just got a very rough base coat on the passenger side done so i have some sort of idea of what it will look when im out on the track. but as normal ive been to busy with work and my new $100 work hack lol.

I done this conversion to my GTR a bout 2 years back. Definately hard to get right but well worth it in the end.

Got my hands on a drivers side headlight for $160 all i need is one more lol. And after watching my mates cefiro over heating like a bitch at a SD pratice day at QR i bought myself a 52mm dual core alloy radiator with twin thermos and a shroud, it only needed a slight move of the power steering lines to make it all fit plus i don't have any air conditioning any more which helped with fitting alot.

Funny you say that, one bloke had 2 xeon driver side headlights up for sale the other week on ebay, I brought one and I think james got the other one, lol. Unfortunetly ive now ended up with a drivers xeon and a passenger non xeon, so one has to go.

looks good mate, did you find the you had to remove some metal to get the headlight to fit in?

heres mine atm (getting new bonnet this week)

I found i had to enlarge the original hole for the headlight towards the guard by about 3inches maybe a bit more

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
