the car may in fact be real, but in those pics it's a photoshop. this discussion has been had before. close inspection of the picture shows lots of signs it's a photoshop. there is the massive patch of different colour that ten four pointed out, as well as the dodgy blur work along the front of the bonnet (it should be a clean line it a relatively even gap the whole way across, but it isn't). as well as the fact that that appears to be the only picture of it.

I'm sure I actually seeing it for sale on the King Buyer site at some point...I was having a discussion about it with one of my agents over there who had also heard about it...then again, maybe I'm old and senile...

Never said Supra's look ugly, I ment stock. I have seen some modified Supras that are to die for. It's a tuners car so no surprise there. Just put on a widebody kit and it will look like a supercar. See

now i'm not denying that it's a chop as i CBF looking into it that hard, BUT you do realise that most things that cost a lot of money are photoshopped before sale... things like houses in particular are shopped to death before the add goes up.

all that bonnet shows is bad photoshopping skills (it could even be ms paint ffs) but the car could still be real from that evidence alone.

what if there was something on the bonnet, like a huge scratch or sticker that they wanted to cover up?

hehe you seem to be stuck on the fence there! im not sure what your budget is, but surely the THOUSANDS of dollars you could save on doing an rb26/30, would overcome the mindf*ck that is doing a 2jz conversion?

what would spock say?

LMAO I'm over the 2JZ thing, the decision is almost unanimous and it seems to be way more trouble than it's worth. Getting an RB30 or tuning the 26 would be heaps cheaper and yield same or better results. The V8 conversion sounds nice though you would do it to a GT not a GT-R cos it'll be rear drive anyway. Would sound so weird a V8 roar out of a Skyline. You would pass by and people would still be looking for the culprit not knowing it's you hehe.

    • Just one more post to show the final result and the original "janky" solution for a laugh. Everything feels really tight and no wobbling at all, very pleased 🙂
    • After drying a few days, time to put her back together 
    • The hot exhaust light will come on not from just the cat being blocked, but it's just a temp sensor, and it's designed to warn you to not do things like park in long grass.   If you've been pushing the motor a bit, it can cause the light to come on.   Second if the cat is rattling, I'd suspect it's not blocked, but instead falling apart inside.   The easiest "fix" until you can get a cat put back in, is to unbolt your one, bash the rest of the insides out, and then bolt it back in.   For a daily driver/street car, I am in agreeance of put a cat in the car. If it were race car I wouldn't care if it were removed.
    • No worries at all 🫡 I think the most satisfying things to make are the little bits that are just impossible to find or they're no longer manufactured. Generally I always try to replace parts with OEM wherever possible. This little project is also great because it'll never see the light of day, but strengthen these brackets so it's not just relying on the little standard screws in the headlight plastic. As soon as I saw the standard brackets and screws I thought, "well I'm not going to install with just the screws, the plastic tabs will just snap off". It's crazy how expensive everything has become yeah. But I suppose that's supply and demand; granted it's a lot easier to get brand new genuine parts these days which is fantastic 😊, I don't have to get totally reamed at the local Nissan dealer ha ha We sure are lucky we have all these manufacturers making parts these days, a few really great Australian companies too like Platinum Racing Products and Fit Mint Automotive, what a time to be alive ❤️ . I've got my eye on the RB26 head by PRP as mine has a very fine hairline crack, so that'll need to be addressed some time in the future. If you have any requests or odd things to make feel free to let me know and I can have a crack at making replacement parts ✌️
