Canadian R34 Skyline build

[R34 Zach]

finished doing the rims. im still not 100% sure on how i feel about the colour, but the beauty of plastidip is that i can just peel it right off! im thinking if i dont keep gold i could do gunmetal grey? any opinions out there??


sneak peak of my neighbours new c7 in the bg

Holy shmoley! Thing looks really good! Wheel colour wise, I'd keep the gold now as it suits the subtle kit, but once you go wide with GTR wide kit make them gun metal grey to finish off the whole agressive look Great job so far! Any plans for the future apart from the kit?

exterior wise my goal for this car would be the full GTR nismo body kit, car painted monterey blue (lamborghini colour) with a black hood, have her sitting on white 19'' volk te37's,

interior i want 2 blue bride racing seats up front, and all the white parts of my interior reupholstered the same blue as the racing seats (currently the interior is dark grey with white inserts). also a nice steering wheel.

engine bay i want a custom intake manifold GTR look, leading to a big front mount intercooler, and GTR timing bet cover, plug cover and valve covers to make the engine look like an rb26. and to top it all off i'd like a nice big turbo sitting under there to replace the small stock one.

if anyone has any suggestions or tips leave a comment below

I can already see the awesomeness! Also, why not a full engine swap?

[M.Doban]

Wow...what a wonderful purchase! And I actually think the wheel color looks fantastic! Very cool, man.

my motor only has 91,000kms and runs strong so im not sure if i want to swap it out lol. plus i hear my rb25 and the GTR's rb26 are very similar

Gold is good. Do not change it

Good work so far on cleaning everything up. The headlights came out mint.

I think if you wanted the rear red fog light you should have bought the proper one or left the clear one as is. The GTR one still looks different.

Also to people who suggest the RB26 conversion, the RB25DET neo is an amazing engine. You wouldn't want to swap it out for an RB26, you may as well buy a full GTR.

And lastly I think the wheels should have been left silver too.

Sorry to sound so negatively, but you should keep it clean and simple.

Good thing he Plasti dipped the wheels so he can peel the gold off if he gets bored lol

a couple days ago someone commented saying i should put a GTR front bumper on the car... so i did. i actually have the whole GTR kit including:
nismo front bumper
rear bumper
side skirts
front fenders
rear overfenders
taillights
nismo side skirts and rear bumper skirts

im starting school in 2 weeks and im studying auto body repair, so i thought now would be the perfect time to start the conversion!
today i test fit the front bumper.


the bumper wouldnt fit because my rebar has 2 bumps on the bottom... but i didnt quit becuase of that. i thought maybe i should just remove the rebar... but no, i called in my brother and he cut those bumps off.






after that the bumper slid right in. i didnt bolt it in or anything, just zip tied it on temporarily for some pictures.



this picture here shows you just how much wider the GTR is then the GTT.



and this is what the bumper looks like on the car!
ps. plastidipped one side of the cars rims black and im kinda liking the blacked out look better then the gold. (its just temporary tho).

lots more updates to come!

Dis gon' be good

[MuggingMeatballs]

I personally like black on black, +1 stealth

Dat bumper!

big update
today i was in the garage all day, installed some more GTR goodies on the car.



to get the fenders off i had to take off the bumper, headlights and almost the doors.



it was mostly zip tied on to just test fit, but the fitment was actually pretty good, so i put the other one on and started assembling the front end. this is how it turned out.





the GTR has a different hood with the nose cut off so im not able to close my hood with the stock hood

[Spectra Phantom]

Yeah I was the one that told you to get the GTR front Looks like you got this bumper. Make sure you get the front bumper lights like this one.

How'd you restore your headlights?
