This is my slow build up.

In early 2007 i purchased a 1999 R34 GT-four manual non-turbo through Iron Chef Imports. It had done 74,000k's and was stock as a rock.

When he found me the car i thought of doing a whole GTR four-door, and that where it leaves me today.

Only thing missing is the turbos and injectors.

Been waiting eagerly for you to start this project ever since you told me about it ... g'luck buddy, it's gonna be mad once it's all done. Can't wait to see it on Motorkhana.

Ive fitted up a 260RS brake master cylinder and booster, aswell as a cusco brake cylinder stopper.

Couple pics of the dash and turbos for you guys to.

As for the spool engine, ive just read what they have posted on the forums but nothing seems concrete yet as to release dates. I'll be contacting them when i have some money tho.

Cheers

The cage is a modified cusco r33 front cage and a safety21 rear with a harness bar welded in.

Those wheels will stick out an extra 3mm on the rear. The fronts im not to sure with mine being 4wd the hubs sit closer in im sure.

good luck.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
