To all the haters out there, not every one buys a Skyline, let alone a GTR, because they want to race it. Some people just buy the car because they like the look of said vehicle. So, if you are not happy with the build this guy is doing, don't look at his post. It is as simple as that.

Now for the build.... You are doing a great job dude, fromt he looks of things, you are going to have some nice cures and a very distinct shape to the install. Good luck with all the sanding once the 'glass has gone down though, the shapes are gonna hurt you.

Also, you will find that fibreglass will cut a lot of the weight out of the install, so you will still have a fast GTR with only a little weight in the trunk.

GOOD LUCK DUDE AND ENJOY.

gday here are a few updates

Hey dude.... Any more updates with this build?

Wanna see more progress on the build.

BTW, I don't see this being very heavy. I assume the majority of the build will be done with fibreglass and a thin MDF frame.

    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
