Just Jap Racing Gives An R35 Gtr The Chop - Literally


Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

Just Jap Racing rocked the boat by taking the first R35 GTR to enter Australia and painting it Pink, and now, its time for some more controversy to keep you all entertained!

I am currently in Japan with our in-house mechanic Gary and we have just finished chopping up one lovely Silver R35 GTR with a mere 4,000 Km's on the clock to use as a spare parts donor for our Donut King R35 GTR Race Car Team.

I hope you are all sitting down :P

Gary will chop anything

Ever imagined an R35 GTR convertible?

The car is being bought in for spare parts for the Donut King Race Team, in case you missed it in the first post

Remembering of course that Nissan Oz "won't be servicing any grey imports" it's not such a silly ideal if you have the cash to do it. It also means other Grey Imports know who to call should they run into troubles.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
