r32 gtst slow burn build

[Adz2332]

The story goes, bought a project car.... 16 years ago now.

Its been stripped and placed in the back of the shed for to long.

I bought it in 2006, the plan was to tidy it up and use it as a daily, keep my 33 gtr for the weekend.

The last owner made it a sex spec 90s autosalon car. Vertex kit, white interior and strangely run on dedicated gas....

Its a factory manual turbo and bought for $2000....

Right away we didnt get along... wouldnt go up my driveway. so had to raise it up considerably 

[Adz2332]

First thing i did was remove all the LPB and get it running well.

what a power house

[Adz2332]

I used it for a few weeks and came across, back then cheap cheap GTR seats in top nic and also a genuine GTR bar, plus a standard bonnet

[Adz2332]

I didnt do much for a month or so but started collecting some parts

genuine GTR wing, genuine carbon fuji spoiler flap, nismo gear knob, nismo carbon exhaust surround, enkies rpf1, roof spoiler, genuine gtr front lip, gtr rear seats

for a laugh tried on my 33 drift cars rims on it.... nearly

[Adz2332]

i then got the bright idea to start to tidy it up. was trying out colours... didnt end up liking it

[Adz2332]

but i thought i cant leave it like this so my mates drift car blew an engine.... i thought here take mine while i paint mine....

[Adz2332]

i started it off quickly, stripped down the front to get everything to line up well

[Adz2332]

and thats where its sat.... slowly getting pushed back further and further in the shed. since then 2 33 gtrs have come and gone, a 33 gtst, still have my drift car but thats now changed from a rb25 to a LS1 etc

 

(pic of my mates being funny back in the day, writing 2017 completion..... fast foward to 2023....)

my current daily, stinger

my current bike r1

my track car 33

 

[Adz2332]

Just recently ive bought full front end rubber kit, having the steering rack reconditioned, adjustable arms, new BC coils, and r33 gtst brakes n rotors.

At this stage im unsure what to do engine wise. i have a spare 20, 25 and 30.

25 makes the most sense but id love to open the bonnet and see the little 20 in there.

Another project thats sitting next to the 32..... one day

[Adz2332]

2023 is the year of the 32.

new paint job, new interior, basic performance upgrades. nice weekend car to put on historic rego.

Hah, looking forward to see where you go with this.

Do you have more photos of the Stinger? It looks good, very much not the stock body kit?! They have always been meant to be a decent GT car. Once one stops judging it for being a Kia.

Also, how are you finding the R1 experience compared to the Skylines? They are meant to be nuts. Widowmakers.

I love the r1. Yes it's a beast but it's so smooth and beautiful to ride.

 

I've been super impressed with the stinger. Has everything in it and goes well. Few mods has woken it upⁿ

Few more pics of how it started...
