On the battery install, personally I would not put it so close to fuel/surge tanks. The reason is if you have an impact on that side you could have a dangerous combination of possbile fuel leak and spark (battery short). Installing the battery on the other side of boot would be a safer move.

Great, clean build...well done!

This car is going to be awesome. Love what you've done with the surge tank setup. Makes me want to build a cover for mine

Thanks man, It'll still be at least 2 months to go now... Moneys getting a bit tight and i keep getting surprise bills..

How's it all going?

Apparently there's a small queue ahead of me while I had a couple weeks downtime with money. So we're just waiting for that to get cleared up, have been told could be 5 weeks, So not sure yet. But hoping for quick results as there's only Fuel Pump, Lift Pump, Fuel Reg stopping us from ignition #@JH32 , then just needs tune, tyres, and we're in business

Great build mate, keep us updated.

Hope you dont mind me asking but what has the budget been so far, you can PM me if you like. Just interested as my gtr is in need of a rebuild aswell.

Anyway great work so far, cant wait to see the results.

Sorry didn't see this, So Far I've spent all in all about $60,000 not including the GTR itself. :)

    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..   
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
