WekFest III is gearing up to take San Francisco by storm. The event is a celebration of Japanese automobiles and it kicks off at 1pm on February 20th, 2011. Last year, over 450 vehicles showed up, and this year should be no different. But there is one machine in particular that we're very interested in.

Fatlace, a boutique clothing store, is bringing along a stock 1974 Nissan Skyline 2000GT. The car will be shown off, then taken back into hiding to be transformed into the car you see pictured above... then given away to one lucky (LUCKY) winner.

Fatlace, thanks to the design work of the talented Mr. Jon Sibal, has a stylish end-goal for the Skyline. The car will be modified over the course of 2011 and presented to the winner at the Fatlace Klassik in October. We fully expect a ride.

woah woah woah back it up.... i just realised who said that...

dood you are the LAST person that should be whinging about stickers on cars! ;)

i've seen fast and furious MOVIES that have had less stickers than your last car!

my comment is not about the car having a sticker on it... it's about those bullshit fatlace/illest/canibeat/hellafag stickers tryhards put on their car.

it's just my opinion hamish, deal with it. ;)

pity about the gay fatlace sticker.

True man!

I see where your coming from...

The cars are great but the stickers can really spoil the look of it.

Considering that is the only sticker they put on it for giving me a modified 2000GT....I think I can let it slide, hey I wont even take it off when I win the damn thing!

Hey you guys cant deny it. Its fawkin hawt!

EDIT: Never even heard of the company before, so i looked it up....anyone else reminded of anything when you look at the logo?

I don't get it... it's just a 2000GT-X with bolt ons. There's much more hotter ones running around in japan, that were modded in similar fashion 20 years ago by dudes who now have grandkids.

Put it this way, no one gives a shit if you own a hardtop 6 banger mustang. If you're gonna own a piece of history, you might as well make sure you get the one everyone remembers.

Let's revisit this when it's a real 2000GT-R with a real S20 engine shall we?

Americans make Ken & Mary cry.

    • What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.
    • I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.      
    • So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about
    • This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but.. 
    • Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
