Going for Broke: my r32 Gt-R build (pic heavy)

[190Evan]

You know I really had my mind set on the fact your r32 was the best I had ever seen until you posted the pic of the new livery. Now my mind has changed and I know you're new set up is going to be even cooler fml #slowdownfortherestofus Sad to see the damage but at least it wasn't any major frame damage that would cost the car and you're okay too!

cant wait to see it repaired man, such a clean car before.
Hopefully it comes together quickly!

thanks for the kind words guys! i still don't truly know the extent of the damage because i haven't got to take everything completely apart yet. but it doesnt seem too bad. the livery is basically the best worst case scenario haha since insurance is kind of screwing me. it's gonna cost less than paint so i am making the best of it. i've always loved that livery so it'll probably be staying for a few years til i have enough for a real paint job!

[burnzyben]

are you gonna use a nismo lmgt1 type wheel, or are you gonna stay with the futuras?

[GrandpaStance]

futuras are staying, my buddy just based the render on a more traditional setup. i may however be getting some custom turbo fans made to mimic the style of the OZ centerlock DTM style wheel to give it an extra bit of race look that will also be functional

awesome man, super hyped for this! love the car, keep up the good work!

[GrandpaStance]

So i had some designs drawn up for turbo fans by a company called Poksed over in europe, and definitely leaning towards getting some done! I think i may only do the fans up front and the regular dish in the rear. don't mind the tarmacs on the back, i was just testing some stuff out to see what i may want to run for a set of fun wheels with meaty tires haha. more renders to come as the project goes forwards.

I'd say go for it. What's more legendary than adding a legendary livery on a legendary car?

[l2edken]

im so excited for this livery!

[GrandpaStance]

Yeah livery is definitely getting done haha I ordered all the vinyl months ago. Only thing up in the air right now is the turbo fans

[GrandpaStance]

Just scored these bad boys! East bear aero mirrors. Was going to do carbon covers on my stock mirrors but I think these will suit the car a little better

[GrandpaStance]

things are getting good now! Just scored some unicorn stuff from Canada (going to pick it up soon) but I found a rear skyline light up panel and also rear quarter glass light up panels!! This is going to go so well with the livery!!!

[AtlantisTouring]

Such a sick build man, sits on point man

[GrandpaStance]

just snagged these bad boys too! Can't wait for everything to come, then the rebuild starts. Should be back on track in a month or 2 tops!

[GrandpaStance]

ok so the wait for insurance has been a little disheartening but finally, after 8 long months, they paid me in full to fix my car. plans are still going ahead as usual, only real update so far is that i ditched the Nardi wheel in favor of reupholstering my rare Momo 913 Special/Impul steering wheel. I will be hopefully ordering some more parts soon and fixing everything hopefully by the end of may if it all goes well!
