Words cannot express how damn cool this is, how neat and tidy the craftsmanship and how fast you get it done. :O

Reach arounds speak louder than words and your pictures tell a thousand.

Does anyone else think that it would look mean as in satin black?

Some SLR5000 guards, satin black and fark off wide deep dish gold simmons F90's.

Another job done, used the rear r33 tailshart and shortened it 45mm shorter than the r32 tailshaft and cleaned and regreased the cv joints.

Found the r32 cv has a rubber seal at the back and the r33 doesn't

Mate, your project is off its head!!! I love it!

Funny, a few years ago I bought a R32 GTR rear end to graft into my LX hatchback and everyone told me I was a fool to consider the project! I still have the rear end and the jig that I made to move the project forward and I have a few spare resto hatchbacks in my shed... maybe one day!

Inspiring stuff mate. Keep up the great work and keep the inspiration coming.

WOW,

so glad i found this thread,

have you spoken to an Engineer about getting it registered?

i have a 71 LC GTR, and started putting a 3l with 26 head & single turbo in it a few years ago (on hold for now), i bought the 32 front cut, and always pondered about using the 26 sump and making a AWD torry (GTR into GTR) , but my skills are nothing in comparison.

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
