355GTS

Here are some update photos on the strip out. I will get some more this week and post them.

some pics! to follow if I can figure out how to upload....

CAGE PREP SCOPE: The minimum targa spec cage in mild steel and this includes the roof double cross, double main hoop cross and gusseting, and double side intrusion. The extra bars to be considered are the diagonal and horizontal link in the rear of the cage linking the rear sections The dash bar (behind the dash) Rear leg braces (links the rear section to the main hoop along the floor) Strip and re-fit everything inside the car Paint the cage (I may end up doing the full monty here with a two pac job for floor and cae...) Windscreen front and rear R&R Seat Mounting for 2 Sparco Seats Front and Rear Tow Points Bonnet Locking Pins Flush Mount - AERO ones!

UPDATE to BUILD: I have the car being stripped by TRACKART in Moorabin (old Meridian factory). You can follow his daily progress on Facebook. See this link as he is posting daily photos of the strip out and then cage installation. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Trackart-Custom-Fabrications-Pty-Ltd/366646096695933?sk=wall

Update #1 Cage design getting nailed down. Heater/aircon box dash getting removed. Mild steel cage with front dash bar and all the rear cross and floor bracing is going to be installed. More to follow !

Yes very tough! Should be even meaner once all the junk is removed from inside. Cage should look good too. Got to decide how that will look as well. I might make a hybrid of yours or Duncan's perhaps..

Hi All, I am new to this forum as I have only recently acquired my first Skyline ever. Its a 1989 R32 GTR - White in colour. The car was selected for the sole purpose of building a car that I can make my first foray into Motorsport. My racing/driving ambition is to first build the car to Stage 1 specs (details below) and take it to the tracks in Victoria to get acquainted with the car and start learning some driving skills. Plan is to run in a few sprints/hill climbs (Marque Sports Association) and track days. Build up some skills for a year or so. Then finsh the car to Stage 2 (targa/rally goal). So here is the build plan..... Strip & Cage & Race Prep Cage - CAMS mild steel. Design TBC.

Yep the white one at Racepace is mine! I will start a thread as soon as we make some headway!

Hi Paul I am most impressed with the level of detail you have gone to. I am just embarking on a R32 build myself using the good fellows at Racepace so I am feeling rather inspired now after reading all the posts on this thread. Good luck with finishing it mate. I will start my own build thread I think. Ev.
