Hi all,

Many of you have been following a couple of our Project Cars that we have been working on, in-house at Just Jap Racing over the past few years, particularly Darrons BNR32, which was previously Gun Metal Grey, so I thought I would put up a thread with some of the progress pictures showing the final result of the cars recent repaint and exterior update.

Inspired by the R35 GTR, we chose to paint the car in R35 Titanium Grey, and we are fairly certain that this is the first car in the country to be repainted in this specific colour though we have no doubt others will follow :D

The paintwork was handled by Andy at Complete Smash in Sydney (02 9521-3933) and we are delighted with the results.

We took the chance to replace all the original perished window seals and rubbers with Brand New Genuine items for a quality result

We hope you enjoy the before and after shots.

Before - Standard Bodywork - Factory Gunmetal Grey, finished off with 18" URAS NS-01's

After - Complete Refinish in R35 GTR Titanium Grey

We went for only subtle upgrades to the actual bodywork so as not to ruin the R32 GTR classic lines, so we added N1 Side Skirts, and finished the car off with R34 GTR wheels which perfectly compliment the colour, and an SRI Carbon N1 Boot Lip and SRi Carbon N1 Front Bar Vents.

For anyone interested we have a stack of brand new Carbon Fibre Gear now available so don't forget to check out our website.

More updates to come.

Thanks to all for your support - We hope you enjoy.

Cheers,

Steve Thatcher

Due to the number of pm's and requests we have had from customers of late, we are also now stocking a lot more Carbon for a variety of models.

More updates to come hopefully today showing the repainted RB26 engine covers which we had done in the same colour as the bodywork, and finished the coil pack cover off with an HKS valley badge.

Cheers guys, and thanks for the feedback.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?

      This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
