Here's today's efforts, we have stood around for the last 3hrs having a few beers appreciating our last 2 and 1/2 years + of effort and myself, my brother and the old boy are extremely proud of this car and $200 000 + later, it is worth every cent and probably wouldn't change a thing on it and I must say for a backyarder shed job it would have to be the best R32 GTR i have ever witnessed personally and can't wait to go toe to toe with the worlds best. I still can't believe how awesome this machine looks it makes the R33 look like shit hahaha!!!!! A few more things like the carbon aerolatches and the doors skins and windscreen wipers are about all thats left and a good day of cleaning it and its ready for the photoshoot, hopefully gracing the cover of HPI Magazine very soon. The first person who scratches this car my old man with probably kill them but at the end of the day this car was made to break records and hopefully the R32 will deliver ...as long as the driver has it all under control, 8.7sec here we come. P.S for those that are curious the back of the car is 10mm higher than the front, it was just the un-even ground the car was parked on that why it looked weird thumbsup.gif.

Here's some more pics:

AME Tracer TM-02 19x9.5 +22 with Advan AD08 275/30 R19

i was always of the opinion that 19's were too big for an r32, that is, until i picked up my replacement r32 & after looking at your pics as well as the gun metal r32gtr garage saurus with carbon panels...it really confirms for me that 19's are the way to go!

looks awesome mate. I love it. makes me think my next GTR will be white too. I had a nice white 32 a few years back and always had a bit of a soft spot for them. hope it runs fast like you want it too. :)

    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
    • Brumbys with good shells are bloody expensive, I've looked at 2 "cheaper" cars, and walked away from both,  plus after some research spare parts are fairly sparce I'm starting to think that I missed the boat on finding a clean one that is straight (ish) and without alot rust I'm starting to think about a old Hilux as panels and other parts are much more available as they sold tens of thousands of them I use to be indecisive but now I'm not sure
    • A Brumby would probably fit a big metal toolbox in the back... this is how it begins  
    • Picked up a new OEM boot seal for the MX5 today as the old one got ripped a bit by me being a idiot by seeing if I could fit a large metal tool box in it, it didn't fit, and ripped the seal with the corner of the tool box I am still waiting on time to get the cams and new balancer installed, as well as the repairs to the boot Time will not be an issue soon though
    • I was more thinking so it doesn't flop around as much rather than for rotating it. Once you have the balance right, it should rotate well enough, depending on how much resistance there is on the pivot. I think you said the pivot point was on a bearing though didn't you?
