Well I figured it was time to make a build thread on here, It's going to be more then just my GTR and probably be divided in sections. There will a good amount of writing along with pictures so feel free to just scroll. Before coming the owner of my current 1991 GTR. I previously owned a 1992 240sx which I bought when I was 16. This is the day I bought it.
It came with the VIS Carbon fiber hood, Stance coilovers and a hurting a$$ rb20 swap that I went through a summer blowing 7 turbos while trying to find the problem in one summer lol. Through out winter I swapped I bought another full rb20 swap with 80,xxxkm, then after plenty hours of research I decided to go with a VG30ET Steel Wheel turbo, braided lines, 3" custom turbo back with screamer welded in, Decided to go with the VG30ET because it was a rare 300z turbo that came stock with a steel wheel since I didn't want to get a rb25 turbo and have a ceramic wheel again. Also went with a GTR injectors and Z32 maf along with new gaskets. Through out the summer I did other things such as XXR wheels (Broke student) that I ended up painting white, Instant Gentleman kit, Kouki taillights and ASPEC Blast Pipes.
And painted it with some spray bombs lol

I daily drove it and drifted it 1" of the ground the summer without any engine issues. Curbs do hurt though
I took the task off fiber glassing it and learning to bondo and paint and fixed it the next day. Wasn't a fun task but definitely rewarding.
At the end of the summer I got a full time job and wanted something with more power and didn't want to part it out so I traded my 240sx for a 1992 Skyline GTS4 that I planned to build a rb26 with forged internals and top mount and wide body. Here's the first day I had it.
It came with the rb20 awd, torque splitter, yellow jacket coils, Exhaust, Greddy Ultimate, turbo timer, ac & hicas delete. I drove it as is saving for parts for the winter build. Here's a shot at the year end local drift event.
