Torana Lx Gtr Hatch, Lots Of Pictures


Recommended Posts

Luke i'll use the gts4 seat if I can't find some recaro's or bride seats. It was interesting that the engineer said if

I brought seat rails or built them either way he would have to inspect them.

Had a bit of a side project for a mate, before he fitted his new motor he wanted paint the engine bay and asked me to fix some rust

and fill all the holes in the engine bay.

Now back to mine, fitted the fuel tank, changed the r33 hand brake cables to the r32 ones and fitted the rest of the hand brake.

Also fitted the ATTESA pump and started working out which line I would be able to reuse. I might bolt everything together

and take it to Show us ya wheels at Numurkah in December.

Got a bit more done, fitted the motor and gearbox, tacked up the gearbox cross member using the skyline one. Fitted 10mm

spacers between the front subframe and the adapter plates to drop the motor down a bit for more bonnet clearance and fitted

the radiator and intercooler.

You work quick mate. Are you going to fully seam weld those chassis rails or just leave them stitched? Interested to know why?

Generally it's to stop potential cracks spreading along the length of a seam.

I can't get enough of this build; it's my two favourite cars made into one piece of awesomeness.

Made up a dodgy clutch line to check if the under the dash master cylinder setup I made works, after bleeding it the pedal feels alot lighter

then the skyline pedal. Gave it a quick coat of etch primer to tidy it up. Not much more will be done to this one as I need to

finish painting my other torana sedan.
