So my 6 massive boxes arrived today! was like Christmas when i got home from work!!!! took some photos will put them up soon the list includes...

genuine front bar, carbon fiber larger lower lip, headlights with eyelids, some crazy looking bosch zenons, radiator support attached to nose cut, genuine bonnet, genuine masa guards, custom bonnet hinges, rear flares and a few other bits.

Hopefully get stuck into it this weekend :thumbsup:

Cant wait to see this one in black? The rear end will need a decent wing, rear bar and chunky sideskirts to make it look right.

Bastid. My abflug kit and eyelids is three weeks from landing. I will be just as enthused me thinks.

nice work, tho i do like the stock rear wing :thumbsup: thinking about rear bars and skirts tho, i wouldnt mind finding a vspec rear bar and drastically modding it to fit the stag :D

ok some pics from today...

Note the welding on the bonnet hinges, looks like a lot of effort was put into getting this car done right.

Oh yeah, seen a few now with GTR variant front bars, good luck fitting a Vspec II rear bar. I reckon a z-tune bonnet, autech wing and nismo or masa skirts would really set it off. Ditch the roof racks aswell.

where did u get the splash guards from and how much, if you dont mind me asking???

they came off the stagea that had this conversion previously, they came with everything else. To me they just look like stagea gaurds that have had bits attached to them

Looks good. Nice to see all the genuine r34 parts have been used. The front bar reo is worth over a grand all up

The peice of foam accross the middle alone is $150!!

I see the carbon lip has a bit of battle damage. They hang fairly low. Mine sits at approx 70-80mm clearance from the ground. A bit too low.

When do "plan" to have it all together?

I was quite chuffed to see it had a genuine reo :( the lip I will have repaired and painted black, it's a bit bigger than the stock lip.

I "plan" to start this weekend, but before I go to far I will be getting the panels edged and and backs painted so the whole car can be blended in the booth avoiding putting it on and taking it off too many times

Pic's of rad support? If it has the full R34 support, there will be a bit of time cutting modifing to get it to fit

That lip is actually a one peice version of the factory lip and vspec lower diffuser.

Good idea is to get some 50x3mm alloy flat bar and fix it to the under side and profile it to match the front curve. That way when going thru drivways etc it will scrape the alloy and not wear away the carbon lip. :(

I will get some more pics this afternoon when I get home, the rad support is still attached to the old cars skirts and rails buy after a quick look last night it looms pretty straight forward :(

good idea about the metal under the lip too! :O

Teren, I do plan to come and meet you to compare the AWD chassis to your RWD one soon, but I'm a bit under the weather at the moment and trying to get better.

Hey mate, all good get better first! I'm planning on starting to strip the front of the car on saturday (hopefully) always welcome to come over and check it out :blush:

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
