R31 skyline build from aus

[goon bag]

yo guys, haven't posted in here in YONKSSS...
but, have some slight updates albeit may be a tad boring!
so, I wanted to the car to look stock, hard I know so I put a stock stereo in it, also was having a massive MUST BE OEM moment. actual head unit is in the glove box, so I can have the i pod going while it looks like I'm listening to a tape, rad!

also got some factory optioned headphones and some mad 80's tapes for it, joe satriani FTW

also, decided that it needed some more poke, so I put a KKR660 high mount turbo on it, along with tidying up the shittyness of the engine bay as it stood

hasn't been dynoed yet, tried the ither week, but it ran out of fuel, so I put a bosch 040 in it, gotta take it back, oh and the gate spring is 14psi, it's too heavy, but I CBF changing that so we'll just give it a 14 pound tune.
a few more recent pics from it being out and about, went lower in the front, around 7mm, needs some bash plates, as the entire underside of the car looks like shit!








and we did a shoot with a mates car who is like my cars twin, just higher lol

[seffer]

so awsome

[ChristopherJason]

that is one amazing looking R31 Nice work Bro !

[DutchStance]

You should space/raise the rear out abit, this bodystyle makes it look like it got reverse rake.
Never the less, love the car, never seen one IRL, they only import R34/33's and Supra's to Holland.

[NZ BRO]

Those last shots look means as bro. More stretch + poke in the rear would be pretty good. Never the less, im inspired

[DannyE32]

superb and mint R31.

i love everything on it!.

PS: nice blondie

[Youngthugga]

I was soo happy when I saw you decided to get rid of the 24's, it might work on an escalade, but they're just to big and flashy for a classy old school whip like an r31. And I just want you to know you're legitimately driving one of my dream cars. Keep up the good work, bloke, or mate, or chap, or whatever you say over in the dessert.

[goon bag]

LOL, cheers mate, means a lot! chaps a bit pommy but bloke, fella, mate all good over here haha!!

cheers everyone else for the kind words!

[softg]

this is so sweet man

way better direction with more low and not 18's

[goon bag]

cheers man! appreciate the nice words!
stuff has actually happened, so, I finally got some motivation to get this thing tuned and gating everybody I possibly could, so I had to rebuild the wastegate, around 19 times cause all the springs I kept putting in there were too fucking hard, then I got one that is slightly stronger than that criss cross paper you used foldup in primary school. never mind, I bought a controller to bleed some pressure in it.
went fucken perfect, the gate spring is too soft so all we got in it was 11 pounds, but I'm happy cause it made 215kw, the auto is loving life, and it fucken bakes pretty hard!
vid of it
(couldn't strap it down cause it is too low LOL)

[ef9jdm]

dang! sweet skyline
are u doing rear camber on ur whip

[goon bag]

super thread ressurection!
I was looking for pics of oxers car, and thought I'd bang up whats happening!
longish story!

ok, so we were here...







but then I had a chance to buy some more wheels, but I had to sell the BBS's to do so
so made a decision, stuck to it, and sold them, we had quite an adventure!

updates will be rolling in slowly, but in motion and happening soon is
panasport G7C5C
17x9 +22 roughly up front - going to use a 25mm bolt on, as I'm also going
5 stud and 4 pot R32 gtst brakes
17x10+8 rear
falken 215 40 17s all round
Z32TT auto with MV auto shift kit
3000 rpm stall converter
re tune with 14psi
exhaust with 5zigen muffler
sweet screamer that may come out the side of the car

pertty sure thats about it, fair bit to do.. but will be good once done.
aim is
to have minimal rail height raise over the 15's
about 230rwkw
drop skids on teh freeway / private road

19/07... panasport GET
I'm excite, got the panoooz today, love them, shit is going to look awesome!
chucked one on the front, coils are drooping a bit, so it will be nice and low




no indication of how they will sit really, probs be around 8-10mm further in,


back will sit approx like this


got about a billion things to do before his shit can go down, but it'll happen.
also, the panas have no nuts holding the bolts, they actually bolt into the face... weird, but kinds cool

nah its the whole cap T bones, bummerrrrrr..... might super glue the poofter on there

going in tommoz to drop the rears off, so dissasembled all of the wheels, for paint, and to clean the front lips etc...
they pairs had a different style of lips, I prefer the silver ones, more step in them,
(ones in the back)

also are a fucking literal bees pube bigger

i also think they look more like a generic step lip, so hopefully whitehorse's ones match it
so upon splitting the wheels, I found that they have this ring thing in them, kinda looks like its sposed to be a seal for them, who knows, will make a sweet template for ZEE drilling though

so I thought I'd clean up one front lip and have a squizz at what colour I like better, so heres the wheel at the start

and all cleaned up and on the car,
silver

and charcoal,

charcoal looks cool, but I rekon I'll go silver.
had the slightest doubt that they could top the bbs's, no doubts now.

painted up my front panooz and polished and fixed the lips, gotta get myself a 3/8th drive torque wrench and put them together for good!
started off with lips like




so sanded, and polished them all nice like, in between that, painted the centres and got this as the result


all together


LOVE the colour


and both together, will look so good with the new centre caps




and on bricks




have the rear lips on order and will grab them soonish!

[softg]

that's going to look so good buttoned up, on it's own rubber. great r31, great resurrection
