ughh...i hate that wiring ********. why cant people just do it right the first time?

AGREED, I hate Japanese wiring! You should see my ECU hahahaha, don't worry I will post pics.

416 w00t!
i like to see people with a true vision of what they want .
rear diffuser pics?

Thanks Rabbit. The rear diffuser will be the most expensive part of my entire car, so it gets bought last LOL. But I will be buying it.

I just bought all wiring crap off ebay so waiting for delivery. Also waiting for carbon fiber catch tank, and stainless steel coolant overflow tank.

Finally woke the car up after about 1.5 years. Started it up just to let it run today. I put in Apexi Powere fc and rebuilt alternator. This weekend the car will be towed to my shop to be worked on. Will have updated pics soon.

However I ran into a slight problem, same exact problem as before I put the car into storage. I previously thought the shuddering and stall of the engine was due to the dead alternator. However now I am back to base one. I'm thinking ignition problem. The car starts perfectly after 1.5 years first shot. Runs okay for a few minutes and suddenly starts shuddering and eventually stalls if i don't help it stay afloat. If i let it die or turn it off then back on again it starts and then runs okay but will eventually stall again.
There is also a higher than normal idle, when I last drove the car i had adjusted idle to a perfect 950 rpm and now it idles high in addition to stalling.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Sounds like a bad coil pack, my GTS T did something similar to that but did not conk out on me I just kept loosing a cylinder for no reason just after warm up. Tell you what if you want I got a couple pieces left for my rebuild before I pt everythin back in I can bring it come over and well swap things out till we discover the problem and eliminate some problems ill pm you my number!

Time for a small update. I'm not worrying about the studdering problem right now, I'll just eventually buy splitfire coils or something else. The problem must be coils as my car has Z32 MAFS and I took the cap off one to check connecting points. They are almost brand new!!!

For the last god damn week and a half I have been trying to take out the turbos. Absolutely unbelieveable! I have to take the trubos and downpipes out together cause the bolts are welded by rust! I also cut most of the cooling lines with plans of installing braided steel lines. There is no leaking oil anywhere accept from the power steering, good. Anyway, the turbos are comming out for a rebuild.

Here are some shots, not too much progress yet, most of these pics are so I remember what goes where. Also took out some A/C crap (only compressor remains) and charcol canister.

Arrival



Evening out caved in frame rails, still much welding to do. and not easy when upside down getting burnt.







My ugly ass battery box. It will be in trunk, nobody will see it




Fits nice with some room for foam to help with shock absorbtion.



The caos starts.









Taking out recirc pipes so I used old mounts slightly modified to hold intercool.



A/C crap out, will be polishing stuff up later. There is now lots of room in there for a new power steering cooler, and oil cooler



The classic, got this from you Steve LOL










^^^ turbos ready to come out, just too lazy to get dirty today so I didn't disconnect oil return...

And the current.

Another little update. Turbos out waiting to be rebuilt, battery box bolted down. The box actually looks pretty bad ass if you ask me. Also install oil catch, power distributor and coolant overflow.

Your build is pretty damn sweet man, I have been following. You are the guy who has been helping me alot in the thread that I am asking for mechanic help.

RUST, yes it does have much rust. Some idiot drove through a winter. that idiot would be me LOL But for the most part the engine bay is extremely dirty. A long long time ago I had a rust proof thing done and the pricks sprayed the engine bay with that rust proof oilly crap. It's stuck to everything and dust and dirt has stuck to it. Much cleaning to do.

For now I will be keeping the intercooler, currently thats the best aftermarket performance upgrade the car has..

Thats the coolant overflow tank. It turned out to be the best place to mount it. Look how shinny it is compared to everything else hahaha.

Those black LM's, are they a painted set? Crazy to see another black on black gtr with JGTC LMGT4s

[G.T.R]

Looking good bud. If you still need some spare bits to swap out and try give me call, cars going to be off the road don't mind lending a hand to trouble shoot, I got two newer Maf's out of a 40,000km GTR, a working ignitor, brand new harness, only thing I know is my #3 coil pack is shitting out.

LMK

Sorry lost contact with you things got screwy.
