'87 R31 Wagon

[GTR-AHA]

Hey guys.

this is my 1987 Nissan skyline R31 wagon I brought yesterday, it has a N/A RB30 with a FACTORY 5speed manual AND LSD.

the car has 170xxx on the clock and is 100% bone stock.

I have big plans for this car some of which include:

r34 interior

rb25/26 head conversion

hydrolic rear breaks

completely overhaul the motor, box and throw in a better diff and stonger rear axles

lower 2.5-3 inches all round (coilovers most likely)

bigger breaks

full exhaust

bbs wheels or something of that sort

full cage

strip some interor

improve audio system

tint

improve all steering and suspension

longer gear ratios shorter differential gears

stronger clutch

and the list goes on.

oh and my favorite,

the new plates,

GTR-AHA

I'm super happy with the car and I'll have more photos and updates really really soon :')))

here are some photos of the car.

she'll soon be slammed, rolling on some nice rims and have some decent handling upgrades before i start making her go fast(er)

My tip is bolt head onto untouched bottom end. If it's running good it's not worth the hassle rebuilding it.

And use a neo head to get a decent comp ratio.

And.... plate make no sense......

Saw this Wagon on Gumtree or Ebay or R31 Club??? Not sure which.

SkyWagons are the Schnitzel !!!

R34 interior sounds interesting. (I put a 34 steering wheel in mine)

Rear suspension is different to the sedans / coupes (separate shocks and springs setup) so fitting Coilovers will require some mad Fabrications.

I just chucked some low King Springs and new shocks in and some cheap second hand Rims.

(many other small things done too like bushes etc...) It's an ongoing mission.

Enjoy it. IT being the money pit.

and yes... the number plate makes no sense.

Funny you should say that. Mine has a StageA cargo net, center floor mat and Unicorn Sticker.

More pics for inspiration...

picking up my 87 skywagon this week, cant wait to get started on it. going to do an rb25 neo head covert, meaty cams port and pollish stronger rods, pistons and soon enough boost!!!
going to get some of the stock alloys which came out on the s3 r31s as they look sexy as f*k and im going to a sleeper look, probably going nto lower it a inch though and im going for a 2.5 exaust with no cats, hotdog muffler and straight pipe at the rear. cant f**king wait!
