Well after haveing this car for about a year and a half or so and it pysicaly pushing me to the limit with problem after problem from engine trouble to brake trouble to handling trouble and so on.I contiplated many times selling it and breaking it but in the end i regained the faith and decided to keep the car as shes been with me a while now,shes like one off the family...So after its last batch off spanner work trying to sort stuff for a track day in mondello many months ago myself and bubble off hear fitted skyline breaks,sorted the breaking issue kinda and done aload off other jobs and we headed for mondel,the day was disaster with the turbo giving up,the rack exploading and spraying fluid everywear so all our hard work fell on tough times again,so we hit the drink and cheered ourself up,big thanks to bubble as if it wasnt for him i wouldnt off got the work done in time myself...After that the car lay up for a few months then i decide a few weeks ago it was time for a full strip and rebuild,I started stripping the engine box,diff,brake lines,tank,subframes pratically everything off the car to tidy things up and build things back up the way i wanted as alot off stuff underneath was shot and the car didnt handle at all.....with all that off i started cleaning down everything for painting and preping stuff like subframes for new bushing,undearneath for undearsealing ect.....so currently as the car sits it has no mechanics what so ever on it,its a bar shell more or less with interior,all parts undearneath are getting painted this week so things can start being build back up......i undearsealed the car last week so its looking like new undearneath,after totaly stripping my rb for some work i decide i want ted to go sr so i done a deal tonight on an sr engine with tomie pon cams,tomei cam gears,and a mapped nistune,that car has a hks.gtss and 550cc injecters and a z32 and was maken 360 bhp and 380 torque i will be putting the same stuff back on so hopefull this engine should be perfect for the sr considering the weight difference it will benifit handleing alot...plans for the car are >>>
