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

[burnzyben]

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!

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

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!

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

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!

finally getting her ready for transport, put these rollers on so i don't damage the futuras and just need to get the other side done this week, and it'll be going to the shop for the tear down of the front end, reassembly, hardlines setup hopefully, and then wrap! still need a few parts but they should be on order soon and then the hard part begins.

I thought about trying to get new or good condition n1 headlights but I think I may go this route. Stock projectors, bake and take apart and paint the housings black. Think it looks really killer and it'll go nicely with the livery I think! Going to try and order lights in the next couple days and then the project begins, and I'll do a DIY of the whole process even though I'm sure others exist.

[burnzyben]

so in for this. this is gonna be awesome

[GrandpaStance]

So, figured you guys would like another update! just got all my vinyl in to start getting panels ready, since paint is too expensive for me right now. decided to go with an iconic version of my car that i wanted to replicate before the crash. so here is the render that my buddy came up with! going to start the tear down and rebuild next week.

also going to be starting another project with a set of tail lights, going to split the lenses off and make custom molds in a frosted clear plastic. so new livery, and "white" tail lights are going to be this winters project along with getting seats in and making the air install pretty! stay updated, should have some more stuff coming in the next couple weeks content wise!
