Antz 1994 R32 Gtr Project & Restoration

[Ants]

I started to clean up and detail the rear wing as well

is actually a time consuming job but worth it in the end

Time to remove that nismo sticker I had on the back of the rear wing to make things smoother

[Ants]

I sourced some OEM parts thanks to my good friend Robbie $$slowmedown and even got to meet Marcus elrodeo666 who is a top bloke

but before any of this goes on I wanted to make certain I rust proof that wing

these brackets were going to get the treatment of lifetime

first some rust-guard primer

and then some anti-rust black (final) coat

I also decided to paint strip and lightly sand the rear wing stay pods

then give them a coat of this

again dupli*color DSSB01 (closest thing to Nissan Crystal White)

I haven't put a coat of clear on yet but will do so next time I take them off and then sand them down and cut to perfection

[Ants]

It was time to put the wing back in its place

with all the new gaskets and brackets installed

rear wing all sorted

[Ants]

I also wanted to clean up the paint spill from the nismo plenum that some peeps pointed out

it used to look like this

but now looks like this

next up I finally go on track with the car at Lakeside Parkway - stay tuned

Want to work on my car for a few months ants?

I like how you've removed the nismo off the rear wing. I reckon the one on the bonnet should go too. What do you think?

lol bring the car around and I will

I will have to agree Scottie and will also remove the front nismo sticker

However, I have some other things to post up for now

[SCR48]

I'll just trade you cars for the month mate... Feel the 3L power!

Then I can rack up the km's on yours and feel that AWD acceleration

[gtr judd]

How much where the gaskets and Brackets? Mine is exactly the same

that sounds like a great idea scottie - I will have to test drive the Scottie mobile someday and you can test drive mine

Its actually a common thing mate, and as the cars are aging it will become more and more susceptible to car cancer

All up it costs me less than $100 (still exy for what it is but thats Nissan)

Brackets were $55

Gaskets were supplied by Robbie at $40

[Anfanee]

Love your build Anthony. Giving me some ideas as well!

Track time!

well firstly..........................................

I gave the ant-eater some fresh blood and filter because I her

one very early Sunday morning (5:00am)

On the way to Lakeside Parkway (raceway) - fog!

Fog was indeed foggy

but then the sunrise changed everything

after a little detour (thanks to shitty Iphail maps) I reached LP

our time on track (just happy laps) was in conjunction with the QLD EVO OWNERS CLUB which made things exciting

after a brief discussion with QR officials we were good to go

Can I say that I had a ball of a time and finally got use the cars full power on that straight

Being my first outing on track with this much power I was driving very cautiously but could certainly feel that the car needs much work with the suspension

still had an amazing day and all can say is that its addictive and will not be the last time I go on track - a new chapter has started for this car

a small video from an emo of the track time

That's really not to bad at all. Thanks

soooooooo........... from one race track to another

this time Queensland Raceway

another early Sunday morning

arrived at QR without any problems, however...................

it was nice and cold!

this R33 GTR was just amazing

time to go on track

had so much fun

we were on track for almost an hour - I finally feel the tyres gripping and instantly feel more confident and the car was handling very well, but that QR track can be brutal on brakes (mine were smokin lol)

Certainly enjoy finally been able to use the car for what its built for

I had some water under my rear boot lip which caused some nice and abstract art at the back with the unburnt fuel

but I got her nice and cleaned up when I got home

heres some video footage with expert on board commentary

[Ants]

Knowing that I want this car to find more grip and handle better it was time to get some new performance parts

whiteline fever baby!

Whiteline front heavy duty adjustable sway bar (22mm)

Whiteline rear heavy duty adjustable sway bar (24mm)

whiteline front sway bar links - rears heavy duty links have also been ordered

I also got a whiteline front strut brace
