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?

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.

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
