Project Marry go fast

[GTRbrian]

Bought the car in October 06. It needs lots of work but it was exactly what i was looking for (not a spec of rust). Im sending it out for paint and bodywork as soon as possible. The previous owner of this car was a tool and there are uncountable electrical issues and the white paint was sprayed very poorly and is cracking and peeling in several places. The car makes very little boost and runs very rich due to the old school HKS fuel management system or the ghetto boost control or the seized blow of valves. im not exactly a turbo expert but im learning. It has old everything but its a good chassis and the major components are still sound.





















it came with a Trust intercooler, Apexi intake(broken), HKS boost control(super old school), BBS 18" wheels, Greddy blow off valves(broken i think), Trial Bumper, skirts and wing, HKS exhaust, Trust downpipe, Nismo strut brace, HKS intercooler piping and not much else.

looks like fun, so what color are you gonna paint it? its got a red engine bay? are you gonne repaint that too? what are your plans?

[GTRbrian]

ya im painting the engine bay the same color of the car but i havent decided on a color. im not planning on spending too much money but im aiming for 400+ hp atw. its the first skyline ive worked on so ive had a lot of suprises(good and bad)

[GTRbrian]

the engine bay is ready for paint. the clutch is currently being rebuilt at eurodrive and i have parts on the way from all over the world.

whereabouts in Toronto are you? And are you taking this to a specific garage or are you doing everything yourself?

[GTRbrian]

im in etobicoke (west end) im taking it to a paint shop near my house to get the engine bay done but i do all the mechanical work myself. some of my buddies help me with the electrical work and the final paint and bodywork is being done in georgetown at a friends shop.
