you can see in the picture looks like the hydrofilm goes in about 1 inch inch and a half maybe.

So been almost a month since I've updated this thread. Few bits going on here and there.

I've almost completed the GTR front end conversion. Just need to source a GTR bonnet that people dont want half a years salary for. (Excuse the shitty S2 bonnet on it

I also decided to fatten up the rear quarters a bit. I tolled up welding in GTR rear panels but thought it too much work for now so i cheap'd out and just bought some over fenders. Quick test fit

I also picked up some fender washers as well, which might add a nicer touch

Also this is how I've been paying for most of my parts lately

Finally here are some new front wheels I purchased last week. 15" front runners

All the parts......many costs........much bling......must keep going.

Looking good Scott. Can you punt dr me to buy car parts too?

Too much coin for me mate. Also wrong state. Big of panel beater love to mint and a lick of paint it will be fine

Ok, so I have just read all of the 25 pages, you kept me entertained @ work!

Will definitely be subscribing!

Can't wait to see more updates

You've defintely helped out too as I am looking to go RB25/30, although I'm keen to Tomei Stroker it and make it RB25/34

Also, was thinking of getting a precision turbo, good to see they are good turbo's!

3 months without an update. Well to say thats slack is putting it lightly.... The build was put on hold for a little while as i was moving from one second job to another and spare car funds were very low. All back up and going now trying to get this car finish...

Not entirely sure where i should be starting on this update so here goes. We will start with Gearbox

After much searching I ended up deciding to throw an Auto in the car for drag racing (not sure if this has been mentioned) Found a TH400 from VIC that seemed to fit the bill nicely and it came from a VL so already had the right housing etc and was 1000hp rated with a 5800 stall. No pics of box sorry. I also sourced a B&M Magnum shifter to go with it.

Heres a photo of it test fitted with an R33 auto gear surround instead of the B&M case

Next up we have the progress on the coilpack setup .I was gonig to originally go with a massive ugly looking external setup but in the end i really wanted something that could fit into the valley with the cover on and would give a lot more grunt than your standard Splitfires. Credit must be paid to Noel who is an Ex SAU QLD Pres and all round top bloke who gave me a great idea and allowed me to clone his coilpack setup. Combo is

LS2 Truck Coil
Springs from stock coils
2JZ silicone boots

Bit of love shown to these and they sit ontop of plugs like splitfires and under the valley cover

[SCR48]

Now for the interesting stuff!!!! Finally picked up the bottom end from the shop and got it home on a stand. Its amazing ho good an old block can look with some paint and new welsh plugs

THen came time to start throwing some of the goodies onto this thing. Starting with the JUN oil pump and the Crank Trigger Kit

Next up on the list was water pump and getting the sump on.
