Come on guys, we're talking NO financial limit!

Chassis: Chassis stripped and re-made from titanium.

Bodywork: Doors, bonnet, boot, bumpers, guards and etc removed and replaced by carbon kevlar items.

Engine & Gearbox: Transplanted out of a Ferrari 550 Maranello. Built by Koenig. Completely polished and detailed. Engine bay done in solid gold ala McLaren F1.

Interior: Alcantara... everywhere. Enough woodgrain to make a Bentley feel like a Bluebird.

Audio: The Alpine F1-Status collection. Twice over.

Wheels & Tyres: Carbon-metallic one-piece items. Bridgestone Formula One intermediate tyres.

Exhaust: Coming out the carbon-kevlar side skirts. Fully engineered to be legal. Titanium.

Every other piece you find on the car - replaced with something twice as light, four times as strong, and twenty times as expensive. Buy two Formula One cars to use as donors.

Now we're cooking.

Damn guys, you're making me drool. You guys are so innovative and creative. must say, some of you request really simple, but yet very needed upgrades, it shows that dreams are not too far away from one's grasp.

many thanks guys, I think what I will do with my $15-$20K is basically use it to get some leather seats and a sunroof for now.

The thing with cars is that, there is never a limit or an end.

Regards,

Damn that is hot (both). I love the 35s!!

I would do a Z tune engine package. Fitting all the Nismo bits to my R33, but in carbon. Tasteful stereo install (not huge). Interior retrimmed in leather, but tasteful. Full resto in the original colour, new rubbers etc. Suspension redone, dunno what exactly. Attesa system redone and modded to suit the suspension. 6 pot fron brakes and associated rear one. 3 piece polished 19x10.5" rims.

But would rather buy a Z Tune out and out. :P

Well as in the realistic things I want to do to my r32..

buddy club P1 17's.. few more suspension replacements, rb25 gearbox, rollcage, gt2835 - reckon it won't be all done for another 2 years though.

Thats about it.. should do mid 12's, match most gtr around the track, and be still drivable. That's all I want.

i'd get a r34 gtr m-spec, rip out the rb26 and put a N/A ca18 with an auto gearbox in and put an open centre diff. i'd leave as much of the 4wd running gear in there to add weight.

on a serious note, if i had a buttload of money to through at a skline, i'd do everything i could think of. anything that couldn't be made aftermarket i would buy new from nissan to basically have a new car, with lots of mods.

Not tryin to beat everyone, it was the first thing i thought of. Easy

Give car to Nismo, And say "Go nuts".

2nd that :P

RB25DET from half cut gets:

Then the engine and gear box gets tranfered into my GTS, making it a GTSt :)

After running in the engine

Respary same factory GMG

Get the GTR spoiler I just bought sprayed so I can fit it

Interior

Black leather for all seats and trim with dark blue stitching

Dash surround replaced with black carbon suround

Fix the small imperfections (roof pulling away, etc.)

ICE

Get another Alpine S-type 12" sub

Bigger amp

Custom install with one sub on each side and amp in middle of boot

Keep the rest as is

There is probably more, but this will do nicely for the moment :)

    • Next, remove the upper and lower radiator hoses, both are held with a spring clamp. While you are under there, tackle the Auto Trans cooler lines.  Again both are held on with spring clamps, and as mentioned above you should cap them on the radiator side with an 8mm cap, and on the car side loop them with a length of 8mm pipe - this will stop you losing a dangerous amount of AT fluid during the rest of the job If you've been meaning to add a sender for AT trans temp, this is a great time to do it; put a sender fitting into the passenger side line as that is the inlet to the cooler/radiator.
    • Next you need to remove the intake duct (as with pretty much every job on these cars), it is a series of clips you gently remove with a flat bladed screwdriver. They do get brittle with time and can break, and I have not found a decent quality aftermarket one that fits (they are all too soft or flimsy and don't last either) but the nissan ones are a couple of bucks each (ouch).  Once the clips are off (either 8 or 10, I didn't check) you lift the intake duct out and will see the reservoirs Undo the line into the radiator side cap (some bent needle nosed piers are awesome for spring clamps) and then remove the 4x 10m nuts that hold both in place.  I didn't get these pics, but remove the line under the radiator reservoir (spring clamp again) then remove that reservoir. Then you can get at the intake reservoir, same thing, spring clamp underneath then remove it. BTW This is a great time to put in a larger (+70%) combined reservoir that AMS makes..... https://www.amsperformance.com/product/q50-q60-red-alpha-coolant-expansion-tank/ They also make an Infiniti branded and part# version if that is your thing
    • To drain the Intake Heat Exchanger, there is a crappy drain plug in front of the driver's side front tyre: You should use the largest headed phillips screwdriver you had, and in my case I needed vice grips on the hose above as the plug was tight (tighter than it needed to be, since it has an o-ring seal).  After you have a tray down and open the drain, open the intake heat exchanger reservoir cap (drivers side one) and you should get a couple of litres of coolant To get to the radiator, you need to remove the plastic engine undertray. It is held on with a series of 10mm headed bolts and some clips. For the radiator, there is another type of crappy drain (kind of like a plastic banjo bolt) and you should attach a length of hose to direct the stream of coolant per this pic (otherwise the coolant hits the rad support and goes everywhere). The drain is on the rear of the radiator on the driver's side and a bit hard to find. Put a big tray or bucket down (5l won't be enough) and slowly unscrew the fitting by hand. You only want to remove it far enough for coolant to flow, it you unscrew it right out the whole fitting and direction pipe will come off and you will get a coolant bath (yum!). Undo the radiator reservoir cap and it should empty about 8l
    • So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You also need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator so you will need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. 2 other tools that really help dealing with coolant lines and spring clamps are Bent Needle Nose pliers Hose pliers Between them they will reduce the frustration (and injury) potential by about 1000% Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic
    • If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.
