Very nice! Freshening up the L24, or just going to see how it goes?

Im just going to clean the motor with new welsh plugs, water pump, thermosat, exhaust studs and a few gaskets. i just want to get the car on road with the L24 then see

how things go from there.

Still looking for a pedal box and gearbox. So if we can get some fine weather, i can fit all these parts to the motor and fit it as soon as i have a gearbox

Will be watching this with keen interest. Looks great so far.

I had some free time today so fit some stuff to motor and painted it....black cos it was laying around, after painting it black i was like now how will i find oil leaks lol.

[blk180]

Couple of things learnt today, first and most important is always ask before buying lol. And here are the rest.

240k and 240z do not have the same door handles.

Ebay photos looked close

But different shape and size

C110 and C210 do not have the same door locks.

Look the same from the front

But from behind the they are different, i tried changing the backs over but they are different too.

Installing this required more skin then i liked lol

Also 240z pedal boxs are not the same as as 240k, but the 260c looked about right but was not able to strip this car of it.

The car with locks, handles and fuel cap installed.

Coming along beautifully mate, where did you source that front lip from? You going to run rear jdm spoiler?

[blk180]

Yes i have both the front lip and rear spoiler sitting in the garage all painted up, to go when the car is finshed.

They got brought from Otomoto, also got the flares and grill from them.

So it will look something like this?

[blk180]

Yep but a little darker as i went a S15 colour rather then factory. Mine will have a black front lip tho, and a much much more ugly engine bay....... for now.

[blk180]

hmmm got some stuff in the mail friday.

Pedal box

Few more parts i was missing.

[hornby88]

awesome project keep the pics and updates coming!!

[BK1990]

looks awesome

[blk180]

Not much been happening, been getting mucked about by a Brake and clutch place.

But i have not like the radiator support being cut out so i have put it back in now.

[SNOQPY]

after this is finished id strongly consider selling my GTS-R and buying this if i dont buy the 73.

[blk180]

Finally got my clutch and flywheel.

[blk180]

Hmmm so i got some nice pics today before the rain,

Also a good day to fit the windows(could not get a new rear window)

And fit the new badge

This has made me want to finish the car even more so updates should come a little quick for 2 weeks or so.

[blk180]

More parts showed up today, finially have flywheel bolts.

[MR HAKO]

I have thoroughly enjoyed reading through your build thread. Can I ask, apart from Ottomoto, where else have you sourced all your parts/stickers from? I'm currently building one and any help would be appreciated.

I am in Sydney as well so maybe when mines done we can go on an old school GTR cruise!

[blk180]

Alot of my parts are from Yahoo Japan and other sellers like Rubber-soul and cityauto which are japanese sites.

If looking on Yahoo go throught importmonster so its all translated for you, Here is what you sheach for ケンメリ

There are 3-4 of us(all building GTR clones) that share info,sites and good buys we find. Also try help out with spares and what not we have picked up.

[blk180]

Hmmm many months not a great deal to up date. Still waiting to get my SS trim back over 6 weeks late.

I got these parts today so need to have the flywheel machined then i mite get this motor back in. Be good to get back into this car again. Also have JDM lights on the way too.
