I fully agree as before..

The general shape is based on an excel. But there is no excel left on it, except the roof. Everything else is sctatch built, even suspension arms are off a v8 supercar, RWD etc. there is nothing excel about it.

Id be seriously doubtful the doors will be left standard. If your going to that extent and changing quater glass to plexon, your looking for every kilo, and there are alot of them in doors.

haha, there is one with a VN engine and RWD conversion but i guess thats not as epic

that one's turbo too. despite the massive amount of quality work put into the sr20, i still like the VN powered one better. got more of a backyard feel i can relate too

Also, don't under rate the N/A sr20, going to run that for now and either re engine it down the track or build a complete new car with a larger engine. Just had a look at the lap times of the r35gtr is running in the GT series, we should be doing very similar times with a N/A 2 litre...

850kg wet (driver fuel the whole lot) and 260 odd hp.

    • Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car. 
    • lol the 2nd one boss, thank you for pointing this out. I feel as i spend more time here this intro message is some thing i will always make me laugh and shake my head at. Perfect Intro:  I have the vehicle  
    • R34DE as in R34 with an RB25DE? So did you get this? Or you planning to?  I'm not really sure what you're saying. 
    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
