the hollinger is sequential and gearshift ignition cut but not air shifted.

Very nice Roy :w00t:

Russ the Extra R32 (lol) and the R33, are they your daily drivers or future projects?

hi Ryan

the 32 is just a labour of love! been slowly doing it up for a couple of years. nearly finished now, new set of wheels for it and change the bonnet to go.

the 33 has been a project we started about three years ago and have had no time to finish, it's a pure race car sports sedan, should go well , it's waiting for some dyno time in the next two weeks and the some testing, trying to bring it to superlap to puton display. it should be fun to drive, monster cams, hks t51, dry sumped , ppg box etc etc!!

Well, as you can see there's a ruddy great hole in the floor where the muffler box will go. The driver's side seat rails have been lowered, the cage is done, the rear firewall is done, some groovy sh*t is happenin where there's normally a dashboard, there's something real funky goin on with the radiator support panel (have you been up late watchin V8 S/C?).

All was going swimmingly until I leaned inside to have a closer look and it fell of the rotiserrie!! :w00t:

hahah i shit myself when it moved on me too!!

cool , so he doin the radiator area too now, he must be into it! should make it easy to pull out the driveline hopefully.

was the fuel cell in the boot?

Haha, yeh exactly, and of course it didn't actually fall of, but a little pellet came out when it moved....

He hadn't actually started at the front, but I could tell he was thinking about starting because he was quite angry.

I saw the fuel cell, wasn't in at that stage though mate :)

yep, but im debating on how to do it. In another 32 we just bent up some sheet metal to fit over the area. In this one im thinking of removing the complete parcel shelf and then making one from scratch and set it back towards the window more. if i do it this way then i will have to either make new hindges for the boot or just have it removable and i would like to keep the rear wiper.

Just interested to see how other people have done theirs and what it looks like.

Cheers

Cant wait to see it, I have a little soft spot for the big girls (R33’s I mean lol)

Ok, I'll get a pic next time I wander over there..... assuming Giant has no problem with sharing the image?? Giant?

Sorry Marlin i should say that i was directing that at Russ but if he doesnt mind you doing it that would be great.

No stress if you can not

Cheers

Ross

no drama ross, marlin is alot closer to the car than me.

the r34 rear firewalls are very different to r32 , so the mod thats been done basically makes it look like an r32 to now!!, r34's have quite an amount of tin work around the strut tops and parcel tray. that has all been removed and sealed off & strengthened.

cheers russ

hey ryan a few ppl have seen the r33 already, alot of it was done before i bought it, mind you we have mad many changes since then!!

here's a few pics , cant wait for it to tear the track up and set it up, it's on full slicks.

    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
