Modifying a GTR is like an addiction, and in my case I was becoming a junkie!

Before long, I was at it again. I will let the pictures below tell the story....

The inspiration was the Z Tune. The modifications were obvious to the astute observer, however, here is the list below:

Nismo R Tune carbon bonnet

Nismo Z Tune front guards and front bumper

Nismo Air intake piping and air duct

Nismo Z Tune intercooler

Nismo side skirt and rear spats

Nismo GT urethane gear knob

Nismo MFD II

Superior carbon dash cover

All Nismo items were genuine, therefore they were no issues with fitment and finish.

A Power FC retune yielded a slight increase in maximum power output, possibly due to larger intercooler:

I will keep this thread alive by updating periodically

Thanks for compliments everyone. But did someone mention wheels?

Self confession - I am a wheel whore

The gunmetal Nismo LMGT4s are limited edition 2005 model with centre cap to replicate GT series GTR.

More goodies to come....

Can you tell me the color code for the Volk mags? iv got bronze Advanti mags but they aren't a very nice shade anymore. :blush:

Would greatly appreciate it thanks.

Edited by R34 -_-

Pics of LMGT4s fitted with Bridgestone RE010R 265/35 R18 tyres. The Bridgestones are way better than the Hankooks.

I ended up selling the TE37s to another forum member before I had a chance to even trial fit them.

Deep down, I regret selling those TE37s; I would still really like to own a set of 19" TE37s but 10.5" in width and with a more aggressive offset.....

I agree that the TE37s, LMGT4s and Ce28Ns suit the GTR to perfection!

Unlike what the topic of the thread suggests, so far I have not shown anything about a RB28 or V Cam!

Here's a teaser pic of what's installed (plus a few extra bits not shown):

Details of parts list will be posted over the weekend.

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
