looking good mate!

they're actually grenade GX01 rims, not R34 GTR as stated on the last page :D

ah, useful bit of info that one, thanks for that, (i did say replica though :))

The car looks great !! I love what u did with the interior , how hard is the interior to do ? I wouldn't mind trying tha my self ??

Thanks dude, Sadly i have since removed it all since it started to peel up when the interior got hot (im 90% sure its because of the paint on the trim i applied it to) I am now contemplating 1 of 3 options.

1. Coating the trim in Clear a few times and then hitting it with the cf vinyl again in the hopes that the clear will provide a better base to adhere to

2. Stripping it back and re-spraying it in VHT Black Crinkle paint

3. Saving up and replacing the interior piece by piece with real Carbon pieces from Superior Auto Creative

Again, it looks really good, Stephen. Great work. :thumbsup:

Thanks Victor,

Been set back a touch with doing the retrim on the doors, need to figure out a good way to remove all of the old foam that was under the material, that stuff is stuck on so damn well, metho cleans, but doesnt remove the foam as such.

I'v decided to do this to a side project. how do you join 2 peices properly?

some area's have taken a long time and many re-tries such as mirrors.

I'v stopped caring about little creases and once completely covered will redo them maybe.

my thumbs hurt..

what do you guys charge per hour to do it professionally, I'm not in brisbane though just curious.

Ok guys, bit of an update here,

Finally solved my problem with the foam on the door skins, the best solution was to take the skin off the door, and lay it flat, then with a scuffing pad scrub the crap out of it until the foam eventually all came off (forgot to get pics of it at that stage)

after that, a blade around the edge took off any of the excess bits in the recess.

Also, before i attacked the foam i figure, whilst the door skin is off i might as well wrap the window controls and also the triangles in the corners of the door where most people mount a tweeter.

TRIANGLE

This is what the drivers door looks like at the moment, with all of the excess foam all over it, Horrible! (will attack this door tonight)

Then, these (and a scuffing pad that i forgot to include in the pic)

Added together =

And all back together retrimmed skin with carbon-ized window trims and triangles

Stay Tuned!

So putting a little attention towards the interior, :)

Also worth noting, the bootlid has been re-glassed, as long as it doesnt crack or have any issues in the next few days, itll be getting primed and paint hopefully during the week, and then wrapped maybe around sunday *fingers crossed*

These guys do most interior parts in carbon for R34's, a little experimenting will get you to the right section for the parts.

That said, those pics you quoted are what i wrapped in carbon look vinyl, so they aren't real carbon.

Little side project while i haven't been working on the 34

    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
    • Hmm not really, I'd say its race car life or modified car life when you make 3 or 4 times the power Nissan designed the car for lol. 
    • I'll let others with more breakage chime in, but I can't think of anyone who had a problem with the standard centre plate before they had a problem with the standard gears - the plate generally just gets replaced for safety when the gearset is upgraded. As for the gearsets, its not like they are OK at 600Nm and break at 601. Their longevity is a combination of how much torque you are making and how gentle you are on shifts (or not).
