One of the surprises that I was alluding to earlier relates to myself being a wheel whore and the black and white storm trooper theme, well take a look at these:

You gotta love the Japlish:

Custom satin black finish- good to look at; a bastard to keep clean!

Not as much concavity as a set of 18X10.5 +12:

Nothing like a fat girth!

Took over 6 months to get my hands on these

This beast needs grip too:

Latest release in Australia - Advan Neova Ad08

The grip exceeds that of Bridgestone RE010R and Hankook K107 by far. However, still not as good as R Spec tyres.

Look at that aggressive tread design - flaming! Tread wear is at a respectable 180.

Man this thread makes me want to sell my house and make a trip to bayswater.

Did you use the VHT wrinkle finish spray cans to paint the cam covers / oil catch? Looks the goods and will no doubt be easy to keep clean in black.

I think VHT wrinkle spray paint was used on Catch can and cam covers. The finish is non uniform and looks kinda cool.

The car is certainly 100% completed!

I will post dyno result and final pics of car on the weekend.

STOP TEASING US!!!!!

Are you coming to DECA with this GTR?

Im beginnign to wonder if this isnt another Racepace viral marketing thread! But who cares, I still want to see the diference Vcam makes to low end torque on this beast. And since Im racing this weekend im not going to see the dyno sheet till monday now.

Any chance you can tell us where you got that nice dashboard mat from?

now this guy is just f**king with us, lmao

wat a depressing thread!!

i see the pics and i think, fml, makes my car look like a grain of salt lol

My intention is certainly NOT to mess with anyone or to offend anyone. I am just a guy who likes his GTR and thought it would be a good idea to share the fruits of my labour (btw many many extra hours of it mind you) with everyone!

Can't make it to DECA as I have to work on those days to pay off the debt the car owns me!

I assure you, this is not a marketing ploy by Racepace. However, I am their loyal customer and they have done a superb job, therefore I am just giving them a thumbs up!

I bought the dash mat from Superior, can be ordered from any private JDM importer.

Cheers

Stop making us feel bad about what we all drive

Correction: I think its the R35 guys who make us feel bad about what we all drive LOL!

I love the look of black wheels on a white car. Makes it look tough

    • My hold point for future mods is that I want a OEM detachable hard top first, but, finding one is a pain, MX5 Mania are looking for one for me, but, as hens teeth are more common, finding one in Australia is proving problematic  I can get a OEM one from overseas, hell, you can still get new ones in 'Merica, but, shipping is a absolute killer and I cannot justify the cost, or the risk of it being damaged during transport As for the aftermarket hardtops, whilst they do the job of being a hard top, and are fine for a track car, they don't seal well (read: leak like a sieve in the rain), and you need a plastic/poly rear window, plus they are a bolt in option only and not made to be easily removed I liked how the hard top on my NB could be fitted, and removed, by myself, in less than 5 minutes I know it sounds bad, but I'm waiting for someone to write off a car with one so I can swoop in on their pain, it will go to a good home though, so my guilt of this is tempered
    • I’ve got one on mine and it’s fine, 
    • No, you don't want to plug the vacuum line, as that will turn that side of the booster into an air spring and probably make it feel worse. I'm not saying that the GTR master itself doesn't need a booster. I haven't paid attention to the GTR one to know what size it is cf the non-GTR ones. But when you think about it - they have to do the same job, which is to move a little slave piston a few mm to do what it is supposed to do, and that final action is the same on all the cars. So, it is very unlikely that the GTR MC is any different than the others, because it has the same pedal stroke and the same output requirement. The booster just makes it feel easier. I'd suggest you probably have an actual hydraulic problem. It's totally common on these old shitboxes.
    • Ye, in terms of bolting up the "Conversion" from a GT to a GTT is effectively "Use GTT parts for everything" Except the subframe itself, because you won't want a HICAS/4WS subframe. Remember your ABS system will be different too, thanks to GT being the S15 3 sensor system, instead of the R34 4 sensor system for wheel speed. I do not know how people get this to work given R34 diffs do not have a provision for an ABS sensor (they are on the tone wheels of the axles). I assume***** people use S15 gear/R34NA forever when they realize this - Or they convert it to a rear diff/axles that are R33 style which I presume has the singular speed sensor on the diff itself, but then you have to wire it all in and...and... and...
