My 1995 GTR project thread.

Huh, had mine for two years, no bubbles yet (knock on wood!).

[R33-East]

Yeah mine went the same way, it looked great until we got a few hot days then it began to peel up around my clock, vents, etc.

I may also take it off this winter, I really like the look but it just doesn't hold up.

Thanks for the praise - it keeps my enthusiasm up

Umm if you mean the carbon wrap on the dash - it is dynoc dry carbon textured to look like real carbon (which it does) .

Mine is coming out soon because after about a year since install it bubbles , cracks and even peels off in some curved areas when left in the summer sun . Don't do it , i think im going to cloth or leather wrap the dash instead .

Wow just read the whole thread! Absolutely amazing! Where did you get the carbon fibre wraping?

[MarusGTR]

Ah figures, wasn't sure which of the two was the right one, should of figured that the recess would of pointed towards the interior like the OEM WP pulley.

Don't let my post distract you from the fact your build is awesome btw

[cortexx]

actually guys the egine shot with the plenum was taken earlier , the top picture is the correct way as the fan pillar fits into the depressed part of the pulley - onthe earlier pic it was just sitting there not attached for the shot lol .

[nimblestix]

mine is setup like the top pic without issues.... which is incorrect?

[MarusGTR]

The pulley was correct. If not then my engine is wrong too. But the belts all line up no problem.. ?

Nice build!

What had happened to the engines using a fluidampr? (It was also my first choice)

Exquisite build, that's coming from someone who lives for details. Details like your waterpump pulley that was facing the wrong way but was fixed later without mention

Amazing build with incredible detail! I am excited to see the final results.

[ColinR33]

Hah! It will be quite a while before I have the guts/skill to do the level of build you are doing! I can dream for now.

I would however , i would hate to deprive you of the pleasure of building it all yourself

[Phastwon]

Looks fantastic Paul. That is the same ATI dampner and underdrive I used. You will notice a difference in vibration for sure.

[PurpleStreak]

Ohh I missed that part..it should be fine then.. I would use a thread sealant or plumbers dope instead of the RTV though as the RTV would vulcanize and may break up

[cortexx]

Ah yes i should have mentioned i cut a pipe thread in this casting - do you think i still need the washer? I didnt think this would leak .
