What a magnificent shape! Oh yes, the paintwork is superb!

Have I said yet, "What a magnificent shape!"?

You'll have to get the new "History of Skylines and GT-R" poster from your Nissan Dealership whilst they have any left > several C110 cars in there! :thumbsup:

Hi,

Can you tell me where you got it from ?

Nigel

I think this was the only seal i got from Oz, Rare Spares.

Good choice. any idea on sizes?

Im hoping 16*8.5 -6 and 16*9.5 -19 will fit but will have to do some trail fitting first.

How was it for rust?

There was a little mostly in the removable parts, the main body only have two-three spots. The front Guards had the whole lower section cut out and replaced. The bonnet was a 3-4 day job to fix as these always seem to be heavly rusted.

hmmmm this weekends progress.

These rubbers are more of pain to fit then one mite think took us many hours.

Start to refit the loom. have not found the rear loom yet but im sure its the somewhere :ermm:

Cleaned up the lights took a couple of hours, then trail fitted the Grill

and just another random shot of the mirrors

also prepared the front and rear bumpers for polishing.

Dont seem like much but everythink takes time, hope to get the parts for the motor this week and get it back in maybe weekend after next.

Hoping to get the dynamating done during this week so i can start to refit the interior over the next week or so.

Good work..! The black overfenders look pretty good next to your dark grey colour. What will you do for the rear beaver panel though? Not sure about the rubber around the fenders to be honest - more Torana than Skyline imo but looks like you're having fun putting it all back together!

The rear beaver panel(light surround?) is also black as i think the Grey would not suit, the rubber cleans up the gaps and stops the fenders from rubbing on the paint which they where alreay doing.

Some dynamate got done today, all side windows cleaned ready to go once i get some new runners(ones which are on the windows).

Some update pics been raining here alot so not a great deal has been done, im also looking to buy a new house so if that happens probably be no updates to after the new year.

Front bummer polished and fitted not really to my liking(quality wise) but will do for now

Rear bummer polished and rear light surround cleaned up and fitted

Dynamating started need to go buy another pack to finshs floor and do doors. Then all the interior can go in then.

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
