The GTR beast is awake after almost 1 year....updated Feb. 1

Those fenders are massive!! Either color would look good but my vote is the matte ti. Awesome wheel choice too

4 year update! Took a job as a submarine inspector/supervisor (NDT Tech) and worked almost everyday for the last four years..lol. Well it's transition time between submarines and now I have a life so it's time to fix up my GTR.

First off I ordered the Veilsde E3 fenders and side skirts....eta 60 - 90 days :/


Going to run a Garage Saurus drag wing, simlilar to the this DMax wing but better. Ignore the shoddy overfender fitment on this GTR, I believe they are Yanacks.

Kicking around the idea of doing a black chrome wrap


or a matte titanium chrome wrap

With these wheels

Possible colour contender

Turbos out

25 years of dirt in the fender

After

Going to be upgrading the brakes to 6 pot Brembos front and 4 pot brembo rear
Borg Warner S360 60mm inducer going in

this build is so damn sick!!

is it an optical illusion, or will that intercooler not line up with the intercooler piping?

[GTR--J]

God damn that intercooler is huge

Or is the stock intercooler tiny?......lol!

Out with the old in with the new.....The ARC intercooler weighs the same as the stock 18 lbs. but the core is way better designed and 100mm thick. The front bumper needed trimming and so did the N1 vents.
I just bought a house so the project is on hold till december when I move in. I'm also looking for a used Miller Dynasty 300DX or a 350DX so if anyone knows of one let me know.

I forgot to add my birthday cake......Thanks to my wife

Your wife is amazing.... lmao!

Holy Wowzerz batman! Those tires are wider than my car!

[GTR--J]

More tire= more better!

[Phastwon]

Looks really good. Great creative idea.

I redid the cam pulley cover and the coil pack cover because I wanted them to look better, so here's the result. There is a slight pool of resin on the coil pack cover and a few more air bubbles I have to sand out.

nvm the paint on the intercooler, your CF work is amazing....lookin good, keep up the hard work.

[GTR--J]

How long did it take you to strip the paint off the intercooler? What did you use? I wanna try do the same!

About 30 minutes....just buy some sprayable paint stripper

Round one with the carbon fiber lay up. This is after 2 coats and no sanding and the ornament plate is not stuck on yet.
