I fully agree as before..

The general shape is based on an excel. But there is no excel left on it, except the roof. Everything else is sctatch built, even suspension arms are off a v8 supercar, RWD etc. there is nothing excel about it.

Id be seriously doubtful the doors will be left standard. If your going to that extent and changing quater glass to plexon, your looking for every kilo, and there are alot of them in doors.

haha, there is one with a VN engine and RWD conversion but i guess thats not as epic

that one's turbo too. despite the massive amount of quality work put into the sr20, i still like the VN powered one better. got more of a backyard feel i can relate too

Also, don't under rate the N/A sr20, going to run that for now and either re engine it down the track or build a complete new car with a larger engine. Just had a look at the lap times of the r35gtr is running in the GT series, we should be doing very similar times with a N/A 2 litre...

850kg wet (driver fuel the whole lot) and 260 odd hp.

      Fake ARP bolts?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      My guess is, cheap rods, came from a site selling lots of cheap things, and likely a lot of knock off stuff.   I get doing a cheap build, but I don't get doing a huge dollar build, and then skimping on something even like the rods, and likely the bolts to go with it, especially if heaps of stuff had to be fabricated!

      Got this r31 silhouette flood car to rebuild.

      Today myself and a mate tracked a fuel pump issue down to this amazing piece of workmanship in the fuel cradle loom. Covered by conduit and electrical tape. so now we should be moving onto the first fire once this is corrected. 🤞🤔

      1000% percent the looks just aren't visible, I was shocked when i found out the the only thing holding the OEM diff ( rear side ) is one stud was can easily crack when trying to launch the car or really beating on it, hence why this brace connects to the subframe/control arms and even includes a fancy jackpoint, With the forced induction route, I would have quickly launched the diff out the back of the car without this upgrade. The Z1 and GK tech don't offer the same "cool" look so to speak.

      Yes. This engine cost a very large amount of money to build. It's a Frankenstein necessitating lots of custom parts and lots of fabrication and fettling to get things like big ends to clear the bottom of the bore, etc etc. The rods and bolts were supplied by the owner. Hence why the rods were Chinesium. Some lessons need to be learned the (very, very) hard way, apparently. I was aware of the stories going back about that far as well. I just wanted to see if the reality was as bad as the fear.

      Looks great!  The problem with that brace is nobody can see it!
