    Sadly I don't think anything will be happening with this for quite a while.

    I would rather get things with me and my life more inline before going on with this car and hopefully a better work space to work on the car when that time comes around.

    Honestly it's sitting in my back yard with no wiring in the whole car, body panels just sitting on the car, spare parts in the boot and behind the front seats.

    But honestly the whole project is a hold until I really want to do something with it and honestly have a suitable area to actually work on the car so I guess the car is dead in the water for now.


    I really don't know when this will be picked up again since I don't think I will have a suitable place for the car anytime soon and the money I have the could be used on the R31 is going to be put towards a new daily since my current one is worse for wear and I think it's about time I actually own a car from the 2000's.

    Since that's an RB30 can you swap the head to a RB26 and install twin turbos?

    If so, MAAAAAAAD AWESOME!

    and you've got some work ahead of you
    Yeah it took me awhile to pick out the colour and when I finally bolted them up I knew I had made the right choice.
    And yeah I know that I have quite abit of work ahead but things should move abit faster once I actually get a job.

    It's a update bitches.

    Okay it's been quite a while since I have actually really done anything in this thread because well I really haven't done much to the car.

    So the car sat like this for like 2-3 months.


    And I got bored so as the post above me I decided to put the S3 shit on that I had.


    But then I decided fuck it, everyone does a S3 front on the R31's so it is actually rather boring seeing the same front on every bloody R31 pretty much.

    While I had the S3 front on it I decided to remove this shit from 2/3 of the floor.


    Then one day a guy was selling some Super Advan Tri Spokes and he wanted $250 for them.
    Ended up getting him to deliver them for less than $200 during the middle of the night.


    Went to test fit them the next day using the GKTech 20mm 4x114.3 to 5x114.3 adapter but ran into a little problem.
    The old studs fouled the back of the Advans.



    But I bloody ***** the black face and red lips so I did this.

    Hmm Glacier White, much better!

    Then I got stuck into removing the rest the stuff in the interior that I didn't need.



    Yum look at all that wiring. I still have to remove the center part of the A/C system but I don't have the proper tools to do it atm so it stays there for now.

    So now today I had another package from GKTech arrive with some stuff I needed so I could fit the wheels finally.

    Okay so at this time it had actually been a while since I had actually done anything to the Skyline other than put it so I can mow under it.
    So when I went out today I ran into this lovely mold.


    I guess that's what I get since it sits on the side of the house that gets no sun and is always dark and wet.

    Then I took the rear louvers off to find the original dealers stickers on the rear window still.
    Just something about that I love for pretty much no reason.



    So this is how she had been sitting. Dirty, dusty, moldy, grass growing up around it and neglected.


    So I might as well get to the real reason that I have bothered updating this thread.


    17x9 +3 with a 235/45 on it.

































































































































































































































































    I'm not going to tease anyone since well it's about it I did something.


    Please note 4x4 spec as fuck.






    Also you can see my paint is slowly getting worse and worse.
    Oh well.



    Also I noticed I never did show a picture of the engine.
    So here it is, the good old RB30 single cam.




    Okay so to the plans.
    LS1 with T56.
    S13 front & rear coilovers, LCA's, knuckles, 5 stud front hubs.
    More wheels.

    Those are all the things I'm hoping to do in like the next year or so.
    I know it really isn't much but I don't like rushing stuff and when I actually have money for myself since I end up with less than $100 a week to myself.

    Okay so here are some updates.

    I ended up selling the SSR MK-II's I had since my other car needed some work done and new tyres.

    But my car has pretty much just been sitting around since I have had class and quite abit of homework to do.

    But today I thought since its was nice outside today I thought I would start the S3 front end swap.

    To complete the front swap I still need to get a series 3 bonnet, a series 3 bonnet latch support and finally a series 3 front bumper.

    So here is a picture how how it sits at the moment with the Series 3 parts that I already had.



    So this weekend I'm going to a few wreckers to see if the have any of the parts I want.

    So after the front end is done or mostly done, I will be starting on the interior.
