Many of you will remember this car in its past life, however, we are reinventing her... hopefully in time for WTAC 2016.

If you would like to see the development of the project as she grows, you can follow her build here

While most of you know her by her previous name, she will now be known as the Xtreme GTR [emoji2]

We should have a reunion bbq sometime soon too!

I hope so Rosie, I'm torn between style and performance on a few things eg not fond of the wing that looks like it's joined to the car by a shopping trolley lol but I will try to get the right compromise lol

Update: the new Facebook build page is now https://www.facebook.com/XtremeGTR 

The type I had created originally was not suited to what we wanted to do with the page. This car has certainly progressed, but being such a major rebuild means its taken some time. I have some fabulous content going up soon, including the cage going in and all the parts we've purchased. 

Website underway but due to some secret squirrel stuff, won't be fully live until the unveiling event at end of August. www.xtremegtr.com.au

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn
