Donk's GTR updates, pics and parts.

Hey dude,
If it is up and running i will totally bring it to the skymeet. I dont care how many colors it is or if its in primer or not!

I dont see why I wont be at 600hp at the crank after she is broken in and running 100%. Everything was built and bought with 550-600hp in mind.

Going to pay for my seats and final payment to Subracing today. Getting close...

Finally got my JIC Magic seats in! What a pain those Bride seat rails are a pain.. for fat fingered folks anyways...



Rotora Dry Carbon 3D wing... mmmm

Parts everywhere...


Engine shows up any friggin day now! So thats when the good pics start flowing

[Wingnut]

Hey Donk! I need a pic of your Boost control solenoid!! I can't seem to figure out where to connect mine into the factory harness, I'm beginning to think I have received the wrong solenoid!!

The build is looking good though, much like what I'm going through these days!! My Engine is at the machine shop (EC Automotive) right now, I need to get it home somehow!!

I'll be keeping a watch on your build!!

Hey dude,
Youre still trying to figure out that Apexi PFC boost control kit hey? Okay, ill look tomorrow.
I assumed the Apexi boost solenoid just plugged into the stock GTR harness in the stock place under the hood.

Wow those JIC seats look nice! I like the fabric.

Where is the motor being built?

Also, never the sell the TE37... ever!!

[EkostonS]

very nice seats they look awesome!

[donk_316]

lol! The TE37s are gone. Or i should say, will be gone when the car is done. It was a good move for the look and flow of the car.
Bronze 6 spoke? sooo last year. Cant build a new status car using old trends.

I really dont know who or where the engine is being built. Subracing is handling the engine details, i just tell them what i want.

The seats ROCK! They fit real people nicely. All of us at the shop tried them out and we all agreed that by far the most comfortable aftermarket seat we have tried.

[Touring240]

TE37 are classic hotness but I understand

they do look comfy!

[Bancroft]

Wow! So very jealous... That's looking like my dreamcar. Even the same colour as my GTR. Seriously keep up the good work. Is that one of the rare HKS gauge mounts in your glove box? Seriously can't wait to see it when it's finished. The only thing I would suggest is not to use that A-pillar gauge pod. They always seem to clutter up an otherwise clean interior.

Nice work!
Matt

[donk_316]

Funny you mention that Matt as we were thinking of ditching the Pillar pod and going with the Essential Gauge Pod and keeping the HKS glove box piece.

I am still trying to convince Dave (Z-tuned) to sell me the Essential Pod though! and that Greddy Fuel Rail...

haha! slowest build thread evaarrrrrrrrr!

So old engine is out. Found out the old clutch was an ORC twin plate. Nice clutch. Little too grabby for me though.
Cleaned up transmission and engine bay.



Tomorrow will be oil filter relocation and cooler / cooler hose routing.

Gotta give a HUGE shout out to SUBRACING in Edmonton. Only place in the world where i can join in and turn a wrench on my car with their tools and in their shop.

[Willis]

Looks much cleaner. New engine arrive yet?

[Gregzilla]

Your the guy looking for pics of the bumper reinforcement bar behind the bumper right? Yeah thats it. The part number sticker is still on it as it is the correct Nismo piece and not a stock GTR piece with holes cut into it.
