Hey all.

Once upon a time I used to drift a red R32 with a black bonnet (PIC 1)

After a hard life of drifting and a couple too many learning taps, I took it off the road and decided to re shell it (PIC 3). I alway had the intention to rebirth the old colour scheme and build it better than ever. Due to a many reasons this has been a slow process.

We are now only a few weeks away. Thought id show you some pics of how its progressed.

Inside:

Kill Switch

Dry cell battery

Push button start and auxiliary switches

I think that's about it for the time being. Hope you enjoy the pics and vids.

A huge thanks needs to go to Roshan, Aaron and Hai at Drift Line and all the boys that work there, Meridian Motorsport, Race Pace, Hybrid, Fulcrum, UAS, Greenline and many more.

***Further Update***

The car is finally running but not quite perfect. The work race pace has done in the engine bay and getting the car running is unbelievable. Now for some suspension work and interior stuff at Meridian Motorsport and shes all done.

Here are some pics and vids.

Good work Adam :(

Thats been a very long time coming. Its looking shit hot mate. Slow projects are almost more rewarding in a way.

You taking it to QLD or leaving it here?

Oh... and someone told me yours looked like it had more ricer style than mine...

And silly i am for not believing him haha :)

Defanitly not taking it to QLD. Staying in Melbs!

A little bit of rice is ok, as long as its practical rice. I bet the person who told you that probley has a bit of rice as well. In fact their car is probley white making it look more like rice than mine.

Very nice. Interesting to see how the turbo setup goes on teh Rb26..very, very interested :blush:

LOL..what suspension and brakes? I know its your drift car, but please, please, please track it as well and get one up for the the brotherhood :domokun:

You know its a 25 yeah. Its making 8psi at 2000 and full boost at 3500. Said to be one of the most responsive cars race pace has tuned. Everything seems to be working really well together.

Bris it will DEFINATLY be tracked more than its drifted. Brakes at this stage are GTR DBA sloted rotors and caliper adapters with SBS carbon ceramic pads. I wanted to go bigger but been told that its not nessary at this point. Suspension at this point is Fulcrum bushes all round with cusco arms and Tien HE shocks. Thinking of getting billstein to make me up some shocks at a later point.

Next DECA is the plan as long as there is no probs with driving in Chris's car as well.

    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.  
    • No, you're wrong, and you've always been wrong about this. The Nismo has 2 sets of openings. One is a real 2-way, and the other is a 1-way. There is no 1.5-way possible with the ramps that they offer. A real 1.5-way does exist. That Cusco stuff I posted is a prime example. If the forward drive ramps are, say 55°, and the overrun ramps are, say, 30°, then you will get about half as much LSD effect on overrun than you do on drive. It is real, it realy works. OK, you're slightly right. The Nismo has 55° and 45° ramps on the 2-way, so it does offer less LSD effect on overrun. But, I think that just means that they've (probably) sensibly established that you do not want actually equal LSD effect on overrun. You just want "quite a lot, but not quite as much as the drive LSD effect".
    • Just wanted to unearth this and post my baby with the new front ❤️😝 Took her to my wedding rehearsal today. Next up is getting wide skirts (after wedding)
