Project S14.5 Spec R, Part II VE-T In the Making Page 26!!!

TriniGT · Postby **TriniGT** » March 12th, 2007, 10:36 pm

Decided to post up the project and at the same time see who can be of help after seeing the pics, one quote was way too high, this is a project not my daily but nevertheless I want it to look decent. Let me know what can be done and maybe even prices. I want the entire car inside and outside and engine bay painted in 2K black, I also have a Carbon Fibre hood for it but using the regular metal bonnet for lining up unless you need the actual bonnet, no problem. I have all headlights and tailights as well as interior and all trimmings home, just need the car straightened and painted, I will do the installation of all trimming and interior, inside dashboard are does not need painting if a problem but everywhere else.

Notice the front wide fenders

Man make me install the front and back glass and then want to filla after??? Meanwhile things still need adjusting

Work done on this side and the inner fender was cut to allow for jacking the fender out.....doh ask

Right door needs adjusting, rubbing on the top left part

Bonnet not lining up when locked

I used the older model S14 Zenki Nose Cut so there are some differences where the headlights bolt, some drilling is needed

Mirrors caused this when the car rolled

Sunroof needs to be properly aligned and the rails on the sunroof itself needs some working

Fenders don't bolt up properly there are spaces, maybe because the front is not aligned properly

Notice how they cut meh nose cut off and brass weld the zenki Nose cut on, boy pressure

Man run some ole screws through my headlight bracket yes, lawd

NOW A LITTLE GOOD STUFF
Version Select III Bodykit

B-Magic Rear Over Fenders and GTR wing, rear fenders need to be aligned and drilled and riveted onto the fender and then molded with either filler or fibreglass

BUMP for help

TriniGT · Postby **TriniGT** » March 13th, 2007, 7:50 am

Don't know if I should move it to the Car Parts Section, Mods if you see fit do so. Don't want to repost in the other section and take up bandwidth.

Ban should be able to sort you .. but I'll for him to say..

Bezman · Postby **Bezman** » March 13th, 2007, 9:21 am

got your PM, i'll let you know

but thats going to cost allot to bring back good, esp the cut/weld front clip :shock:

OMG

i see that car looks like it got hit pretty badly and looks like ti even rolled, did you take it to a chassis shop to see if it is even straight? (that chassis)? cause that may be a lost cause/project unfortunately. (sorry to be a downer)

on the other hand it looks like a great project..

Bezman · Postby **Bezman** » March 13th, 2007, 9:52 am

you also should fill the space between the over fenders and body panels with 3M expanding foam

ALLOT fo what you need done are covered in tutorials in FreshAlloy and NicoClub

i also prefer the look of the fenders having the rivets or deep set screws (marine or aero quality) showing, it looks like armor :twisted:

TriniGT · Postby **TriniGT** » March 13th, 2007, 10:28 am

Yeah nice idea with the 3M expanding foam, I live on FA and NICO and Zilvia. The chassis is straight and I think the car can be fixed from the state it is in now, yes it's a sorry state and things got outta hand being parked in the open and open to the weather. But in the end I have to deal with it so I am open to opinions and criticism and help. Thanks all for your comments, RS200 I may change the colour scheme to an apsen white nissan colour. Thanks again for the help and the girl from united auto passed moments ago.

all the best man

NickJr. · Postby **NickJr.** » March 15th, 2007, 10:53 am

Nice project... But as RS200 said u've got your work cut out for you. You are going to have to bite the bullet on the body fab prices though. What engine are you going with once the body is sorted out?

TriniGT · Postby **TriniGT** » March 15th, 2007, 2:40 pm

Might as well, RB26DETT

TriniGT · Postby **TriniGT** » March 15th, 2007, 2:45 pm

Got custom single driveshaft, install kit, GTR differential and axles and rear brake setup, frotn GTR brake setup, fully built RB26DETT engine with dual S15 turbos for now until car is up and running and broken in and then a bigger single eventually if money permits, maybe go back with a GT35R or a GT40R. Only things to be ordered for the engine right now are the bearings, cams, pistons and rods.

Things to do still:

Get two T2 flanged top mount manifolds for the turbos either made locally or brought in.
Polish the Compressor housings
Braided oil and water lines
Calico coated bearings
Cams - Either Tomei or maybe stock for now until money permits, will dial in the cams with the gears
Pistons and Rods - May opt for the entire Ebay package - Wiseco/CP/JE pistons 86.5mm and Eagle H-Type Rods with ARP bolts and rings and wirst pins with locks.

So as you can see there is much to be ordered and then there is the building process. Well the car hopefully in the next week or two will be off to a straightener and then I will order the rest of parts for the engine and hopefully by the time the car is back it may just be a case of an engine drop in. Will update as I remember :wink:

^^ Man you insane... You add more to the list again.. :shock:

TriniGT · Postby **TriniGT** » March 19th, 2007, 12:30 pm

I wanna do a complete job, no going back to dig up, make a solid base for a bigger turbo application one time. Only thing that will be needed will be the injectors and turbo and manifold talk done. SPAL duals will be in the mix as well. Some things on order already others will have to wait until the car is in the shop.
