Hey guys been a member for a while but never thought that my car was worth a build thread, my build isn't like any of the other members on here but i think it's not a car you see everyday. To put a story short i bought the car in Jan 2008 and it was a pig, looked like shit and got me interested into skylines/imports. Since 2008 like anybody that likes modifying cars there has been many ups and downs, felt like selling it and generally gave up on it for a while until i done a motor change. I gave up on counting how much i have spent on it after 20k as it just started to hurt so now i just buy and not think how much it's worth haha. Started it's life out as a RB20DE NICS non turbo and as of May last year it has a RB25DET installed, put 3 months rego on it to see how it ran and performed but like any true car nerd it wasn't enough and i wanted more! Witch leads me to where i am currently.
At the present time the car currently has:
Engine:
RB25DET
FMIC with custom pipes
Full 3 inch exhaust with straight pipes
Bosh in tank 040
Greddy profic type II boost controller
Standard turbo, injectors and computer.

New bushes and lower controll arms up front
Rear HSD s13 coilovers

Front and rear strut braces
R33 GTST front and rear calipers
Front and rear slotted rotors
Exterior:
Front projector headlights with 4300k HID's and led Parker's
Later model GTS grill
Vented front bar
Clear front indicators
Front autospoiler with motors (flips up and down)
Clear side indicators
Koya drift teks 17 x 8 and 17 x 9.5
Hotplate rear taillights with matching garnish
Interior:
Greddy profic boost controller
Oil pressure, water temp and boost gauges
Pioneer headunit with 4 x 6inch speakers front and rear
Drift gear knob
Standard trim, seats, steering wheel etc.
I have missed some things but you get the idea.
Got a few things that im currently in the process of getting ready to put on. A Garrett 3071 that I'm going to have rebuilt, factory made weather shields (Bloody hard to find these days in good condition) Z32 afm and plug, and braided water and oil lines for the new turbo.
The car currently sees the road 3 months out of every year so the next time it goes on the road i will have the above installed and some bigger injectors, power fc with hand controller, a tune and some little jobs that i want done that don't cost any cash!
Anyway ill let the pics tell the rest:
