11 second money pit- R34 NUR build

[kelaog]

Thought I'd start a project thread as my car is a project during the winter. As any of you know it's my 1990 Gunmetal Grey GTR. In the process of an engine overhaul (nearly out). Anyways, here is a list of the parts going in the engine, and below will be pictures.
My goal for this car is for it to be as response as possible with a crazy wide powerband, hence the cams and the turbo choice.
It should be able to beat a V6 mustang after it's done... 8-) LOL

So all of these go-fast goodies, but with no braking upgrades?

Slotted rotors and nice pads. I forgot to mention it has stainless lines as well... Doh!!! Stops fast enough in my opinion. I don't think I need a big brake kit yet do I?

Depends what you're doing with it I guess.
If you're tracking it I would upgrade the calipers. You can only do so much with aggressive compounds, at some point you'll need more pad surface/clamping force.

We'll see how it does at the track. I don't plan on hitting high speeds on the street. If I feel like I'm floating into the corner I'll definitely upgrade.

Thanks for your input, other than that the build sounds good?

Looks good! What are the power goals for it? The 880cc injectors might be a little overkill

[klys]

The accord lights look good !

+1...brakes are pivotal upgrade to any moded car, especially a high powered gtr... not huge carbon-ceramic 8 pistons..but a fairly sized 4 or small 6 pot would be something to consider..

other than that, your build is awesome..keep up the good work!
