I've been loving this build and everything about it including the cosmetic details but those tail lights just don't do it for me. I prefer stock ones that are just working fine. But each to their own I guess and this is still the best build I have seen.

what brake pads are you running?

Endless CC-RG

We need a group buy on those tail lights??

Not as easy as that sorry mate

pretty.......

:thanks:

Cheers for the feedback Abdul. It's always hard to appreciate with photos (especially with my photography skills). Hold your thoughts until you them in the flesh, especially at night, they are something else :D

Same here, best build in the country but I'm still not a big fan of the tail lights and prefer the factory stuff.

Thanks Michael, cheers for the kind words. They really are 'the business' and perfectly modernise the car. Hopefully I'll get photos of them all with a decent camera soon.

The LEDs look good Robbie

Keep em :D

Awwww yeh. Wouldn't dream of changing them man!

I love that degree of separation they give the car and for me they are one of the things I love the most about the look of the car :thumbsup:

Epic build Robbie.

If it helps I bought a just jap carbon boot lip fitted perfectly.

Can not say the same for the jun style front lip

Thanks heaps Dan.

Ha yeh ok, appreciate that mate. In the end I have gone with the 'no boot lip' look! Good to know about the JJ item but so cheers

And no good re the front lip...to me, nothing looks as good as the genuine Nissan lip as comes from the factory, unpainted!! :thumbsup:

just read your thread

hat off to you mate simply amazing

car looks superb

cause of your build i will be spending some money

could you tell me where you got the carbon cover on therear bar at the exhaust exit

Cheers for the kind words mate, always appreciated. And if any car deserves your money it's a BNR32, they really are something else

That one I purchased off a forum member on here along with some parts...it was some time ago now and I have zero details on it sorry

I am actually considering changing it over to another one out of Japan but....I'll get details up asap

FYI - FOR ANYONE HEADING TO THE WTAC ON OCTOBER 17-19 IN SYDNEY I HAVE ENTERED '1 OF A' IN THE SHOW N SHINE

ALSO IT'S LOOKING LIKELY I'LL BE HEADING DOWN TO THE BNR32 25TH ANNIVERSARY EVENT BEING PUT ON BY SAU NSW NEXT MONTH

:banana:

    • It's aftermarket. It also reeks of Honda Civic tryhard from 2003. But if you want one....then you want one.
    • Well some mostly good news and some slight bad news.  Good news is cylinder 6 did in fact only require a honing and I'm good to run my 86.5mm pistons again. I should also get the block back by end of week. Bad news, had a few surprises pop up. First, main and rod bearings were trashed. No sign of any heat damage. I knew right away what caused this... I had not packed my oil pump originally and spent a lot more time than I would have liked cranking the motor to get oil pressure. It sounded fine once started so I chucked it up to luck and forgot about it. Luckily rod and crank are fine and just need new bearings. Engine builder agreed that this was the cause.    Another surprise that carbon covered up very well that I didn't catch, something got sucked up and went through cylinder 1, 2 and 3. Luckily this was no cause for concern, just needed a bit of cleaning up. Valves look fine but he will vacuum test the head this week to confirm. I'm presuming this was something left over from welding my intercooler piping, but we'll never know. I'm going to thoroughly reclean everything.    So all in all, happy the motor is fine, and I'll get it back much sooner than expected. I'll also be taking the time to convert my WMI system over to direct port. I'll snap some pictures of that when the parts come in. 
    • I understand, thanks. Yeah I wouldn't want the car to tip over, I'll try and use the sills, I don't want to risk smashing the chassis rails. I ordered some rubber pucks that have a hopefully big enough slotting. If the front right gives me trouble I can always just make a wood block. I'll measure and inspect the sills closer once I actually take the car up. I hope so, but the rubber blocks I had in hand so far were pretty damn firm, if they are that hard they won't give much way. I'll let you know what happens. Angle grinding rubber isn't one of my favorite tasks. I'll probably start a build thread soon, for my own documentation and "log" as well as sharing what's going on with the car.
    • Kinda something I have been thinking about.  To be honest, we bought it already driving like that.  So there's no telling how long it actually has been driving like this.  Hopefully damage is too bad when we drop the pan.   I am having a hard time finding a site that sells the solenoid for the 5 speed auto, do you have any suggestions?
    • That'll be most likely down the road...  LOL
