  1. Yes, I have been budgeting for this build for 2 years working 6 days a week. I have been sacrificing all unnecessary luxuries for this - No beer!, no going out, no movies etc. I WISH I had too much money. In fact, I am still working 6 days a week, preparing for Racepace's BILL..... I will pics of brakes tonight.
  2. Close up of HKS Step 2 Piston kit:
  3. You guys are just too sharp!
  4. The secret ingredient is concealed under the bubble wrap....
  5. Sneak peek: + + Dose of Racepace Magic = Total Awesomeness!
  6. Thanks for pm Jim. Racepace has taken on the job. Cheers
  7. Thank you to all those who have contributed to this thread. I have gained a lot of insight in the GTR tuning scene in all states after contacting and speaking to more than half a dozen workshops. I have selected the one who is going to carry out my RB28 build. I will keep everyone posted as to the progress. A big thanks again! Matt
  8. Thank you for your input. I am researching in a few more engine builders as well - Red R Racing; Lewis engine builders in SA; Specialty engines which built the Hi Octane R32 GTR etc. Appreciate all your help. Cheers
  9. I appreciate all your feedback I am after a workshop who will deliver expert engine building, reliable and trustworthy service and have the technical know how to integrate V Cam in the tuning to maximise what its worth. I believe this may be one of the first V Cam install in Australia from scratch. I understand there are a few GTRs lurking around with V Cam already fitted from Japan when car was imported. I may be wrong. Again any feedback will be much appreciated as I do not know anyone with who has dealt with either Jim from CRd or Joh from UAs directly. I have contacted CRD and UAS and they both sound confident that they will get the job done the right way first time round. Again I do not know who to entrust my pride and joy with and also to trust enough to part hard earned cash with. Cheers guys. Please HELP!
  10. Anyone else care to give me some more feedback would be appreciated. Cheers
  11. Over the past few months, I have acquired most of the parts needed for a RB28 build. Can someone confidently recommend a capable, reliable, expert workshop who can carry out the engine build and tuning, besides RACEPACE. I will consider interstate workshops as well. Cheers M
  12. Hi, As poll title says, I am contemplating using either one of these workshops (CRD or UAS) for a RB28 build. I have contacted both via email and they both sound confident in being able to provide expertise and high quality workmanship on the engine build and tuning. I do not know which one to choose! Any additional comments, please pm me. Thanks
  13. Don't get me wrong! These parts did not come easy - a lot of blood, sweat and tears - working 6 days a week; saving every penny and not spending an anything else for years!
  14. Hi guys, Just gauging interest in the following parts, recently imported, all brand new and genuine: HKS RB26DETT Stroker 2.8L Step 2-------------------$10,000 HKS V Cam Type A--------------------------------------$6,000 Tomei RB High performance Oil pump-----------------$2000 Nismo RB AFMs X2---------------------------------------$1050 Nismo RB26DETT plenum--------------------------------$1900 HKS RB camshaft Ex256---------------------------------$600 Nismo Supercopper mix Twin plate clutch R34GTR----$2800 Nissan N1 24U block--------------------------------------$2950 All prices EXCLUDE delivery. Location of items Melbourne VIC Big dollars paid and waited for a long time for them to be manufactured in Japan. Reason for sale is mainly loss of motivation and some other unforeseeable circumstances. I may still go ahead with build if there is no interest in these quality parts. PM if genuinely interested only Thanks
  15. Don't tempt me!!! It's driving me crazy.
  16. Just the cost of the quality aftermarket parts alone would be worth more than the purchase price of the whole car, let alone the time and energy invested in putting everything together! If I only had more an extra garage space for this..... Good luck with the sale!
  17. Self confession - I am a wheel whore! One set is never enough! I am currently in therapy for this obsession by ordering another set of Volk goodness
  18. Free Bump! Hot rims in rare colour and offset.
  19. Mate. I bought and paid for the mirrors from you yesterday. YOU FORGOT TO GIVE ME THE MOUNTING BOLTS!!!!!! I CANNOT PUT THEK ON MY CAR. THEY ARE NO GOOD TO ME NOW!!!!! PLEASE REPLY AND SEND ME THE BOLTS ASAP. CALL ME ASAP. I HAVE CALLED YOU ALREADY A FEW TIMES THANKS
  20. Thanks for PM. Please take more detailed photos of bride seat label, adjustment knob, base of seat where seat rails mount, and made in japan label. I will be visiting Sydney next weekend. It would be good to arrange an inspection.
  21. PM sent. If these are genuine Bride, made in Japan. I will purchase and pay cash immediately. Please reply.
  22. Hi Anthony Thanks for pics. They look genuine. However on the inside of the fitting plate, the inscription says JZZ30? NOT R34 2 door! Are you sure they fit a R34 2 door coupe (GTR, GTT). The inside foam seals look a bit dusty, used and squashed as if it had been fitted on a car previously. Check out link Import monster http://www.importmonster.com.au/shop/produ...products_id=870 I don't want to waste your time if they are not exactly what I am after. I hope you understand Thanks.
  23. I assume they are genuine Ganador right, NOT fake or imitation copies? Do you have the original box and fitting instructions? I am only interested if they are made by Ganador, Japan. Thanks
  24. PM sent. I will buy and pay cash when picking up if they are in perfect condition!
