started building my car 4 years ago and have been to hell and back with a few shops but finally ended up at a shop i was happy with.

my 4wd wasnt working so i had a full re wire and whatever they did to sort it out. at that time the car was running a 2.7 jun stroker with t88-38gk making 410awkw @ 21psi or there abouts

so being in the workshop i decided to change my plans from street/drag to street/time attack/all rounder, so i made the following changes

- os giken 3L stroker w/ quad plate

- brand new race spec head

- t51r kai bb turbo kit

- hi octane dry sump setup

- ALOT of motec goodness

atm, some basic specs are

- all of the above plus

- ppg 5 speed gearbox

- trust peII 4inch exhaust str8 thru single rear muffler

- 1200hp fuel setup (std fuel tank) 3 pumps, surge tank etc

- motec m800

- motec dash logger

- motec shift light module

- motec knock control

- motec CDI ignition

- defi everything guages

- hypertune plenum, throttle body, n other fabrication

- 150mm greddy intercooler single entry

- tein coil overs with adjustable everything arms/rods/ bla bla bla

- r33 gtr brembo brakes

- nismo gt 2 way rear diff

- tomei front diff

- 19x10 racing harts

- 2x bride cuga seats

- full suede w/bride trim

- dspeed clear corners

- f*k load of other stuff i cant remember

NOW TO THE FUN (not) AND ONCE AGAIN, TIME CONSUMING PART!! which will prob take me a good 6 months depending on work and funds.

i found a r32 gtr rolling shell which ill build up brand new then swap my running gear into it and sell off the old car as a roller.

it will be fully spot welded and stripped and painted with only a dash and 2 front sits with minimal interior, all new rubbers and moulds throughout

its going my favourite colour!!!!!! WHITE AS WHITE CAN BE!!!

new parts/things that im planning to add to the new car

- veilside wide fender kit

- frp front bar with integrated front lip w/ n1 vents slightly modified to fit widebody (have)

- carbon abflug front diffuser slightly modified to fit widebody (have)

- carbon top secret rear diffuser (have)

- forgeline zx3r 18x11 +15 front and -10 rear (21lbs each = 9.5kg!!) (ordered)

- volk te37 superlap 19x10.5 for street (ordered)

- cams/ andra spec 4 point with side intrusion bolt in for now, maybe weld in if i go crazy, wanna keep it street still!

- ap racing custom brake kit 6 piston cp5555 w/ 380x36 front rotor and ap racing GTR rear kit

- dry carbon boot and bonnet (already have)

- dry carbon doors (for the track, std ones for the street)

- dry carbon rear wing

- carbon dash and door trims

- carbon interior parts (custom a&b pillar, rear upper and lower trims near the seat to make it look tidy and a false carbon rear seat similar to the origin ones offered for s13/180sx for the street so it doesnt look so bare) (ALMOST COMPLETE!!)

- ikeya everything suspension arms n etc (ordered)

- new coilovers - still undecided on which ones............

- polycarbonate windows, std front screen (ordered)

- supermade headlight covers with n1 headlights and hid kit

- recaro fixed back for track and 2x recaro sportster CS for street (over bride plus recaro = ADR regs)

MANY MANY HOURS OF PAIN AND HARD WORK!!!

i was thinkin about doin a r34 gtr but not only have i had one of the best ones out there, i love the 32 shape and its becoming vintage as every year passes :D

heres some pics of what it looks like now and the roller ive had sitting in the back yard for an eternity which will start gettin worked on next week. the complete strippping of it will begin and ready for paint.

t51r kai is fine, boost comes on early and just rips. many jap time attack cars run t88's so im sure this will do just fine :) its not a dedicated car so to speak so i could prob get better times but then i lose too end which i want for wen i take it to drags n the like, its an all rounder :P im not using that shell anymore, i sold it, i found myself a cheap complete roller which will be a better base ill keep things updated as i go along and get things happening! tryin to get some sponsors on board for a few things

sure is, gotta get stripping and rub the car back so we can fit the kitup hopefully next week and cut the rear fenders,

cage is probably about 3-4 weeks away before it can go in 2 get done, 6 point fixed, cams n andra teched and modplated in qld!!! love it

novake,

other than f**king awesome there isnt much i can say brother lol awesome build dude. i look forward to seeing it grow haha

just a question though, y did u choose to get the kai instead of the spl turbo and also i see u went the carbon dash ah, nice man. im still looking for one for mine. there hard to find though lol.

hey julz, kai bb = less lag, and better suited for wat i wanna do, it will make close to 500awkw on moderate boost on pump and even more on e85 :( and boost comes on str8 away and huge torque with this combo! its crazy! i didnt get to work on it last week too busy, but will start on wednesday :down:

  • 3 weeks later...

hows it coming novak.

ive changed from a gt42 to a to4z in my engine.

and the door trims are getting fitted up next week, took me ages to find someone i can trust to stip my oem doors and fit all the switches and handles to the sunline door cards...

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
