  • Project: Cop Bait

    So I sold my GTS and got myself a GTR. I haven't done too much to the car as I got it about a week ago, but I have lots of plans (of course) for the car in the future here. The car is basically stock except for a few things so its a good building block to go with.

    I will be updating this mod list as it changes, please feel free to leave comments on what I should upgrade first as this is my first GTR, and its a bit different than a GTS. thanks!

    I had to cancel my build due to lack of funds and moving out to a condo all while saving up to go to australia. I also wanted to cancel because it would of taken me until next year to have all the parts, and I really want to drive my car this summer, especially out to BC for the huge ass skyline meet that I still want to hold!

    I will update the parts list on the front page here to reflect what I have on the car and what I am doing to it now that I am putting it back together. I will be keeping the twin turbo stock setup obviously but I plan on upgrading the parts around the engine as much as possible before finally saving up and re-buying the single turbo setup again. So enjoy my new build thread! lol.




    Current Mod list:

    Gram light 57C (gold) 17x9.5 (+22 offset i think) wrapped in 245 tyres
    Coilovers of some sort
    Trust oil cooler
    Trust GREX oil filter re-locater
    HKS FMIC and piping
    GReddy radiator cap (woo)
    Front strut bar
    Top Secret CF Hood
    Autometer Cobalt boost gauge
    4x6 Kicker speakers - front
    6" Kicker speakers - back
    Alarm

    2x Stock GTR MAF's
    NISMO Oil cap


    Parts waiting to go on

      washed/waxed/buffed the car and took some snaps










      a picture of the oil cooler, they cut out the fin there so more air would get to the cooler.. not sure if that even helps at all?

                Car looks great! I love the car colour/rim combination, and the exterior looks amazingly mint.

                How can they not pull you over with a plate like that? :-P

                    I have run into a few cops so far (not pulled over) at like gas stations and normal drunk driver check stops and the have all laughed at it and say they like it. I am sure I will run into the one cop having a bad day and he will find something wrong with the car lol, but its okay

                    Yeah I was rather surprised at how mint the car is, the interior is completely stock other than a cd deck, and theres no rips or anything in the dash or seats.

                    Looks like my CF hood will be going on this coming monday so will post pics o that when its done! heres to hoping they dont mess up haha! thanks for all the props so far though!

                            So I have been trying to figure out if I want to go with 2 upgraded turbo's or 1 large turbo, and I really can't decide. My goal currently is anywheres from 400-600HP and i'd really like to purchase the turbo(s) once and keep them rather than resell when I out-grow the 400HP stage.

                            I have been reading up on quite a few posts and still can't decide for sure.. I am pretty sure however that I want an external wastegate (I think..). So any advice on this would be awesome!

                            Car is a daily driver and use it for drag racing sometimes, no auto-cross really. So im not sure if I want straight up response with two smaller turbo's, or crazy power at 4-5500RPM with one large.

                            advice?
