TriniGT's Project R32 GTR - Fuel Setup On The Way!!!

[moti]

you should do like midnight_demon and have more cameras than cars

when finished you should consider buying more wheels so as to change appearance ever so often (bright colours et al)

[Paullct]

^^ liking that idea about the wheels

[TriniGT]

Yeah actually I may have the GTR wheels, the wheels current;ly on the car and the TE37s. Will be looking for some Work Meister SP1s as well.

[stev]

this has to be the best DIY i've seen in a looong time. the car is coming along very nicely.

i admire how u take your time with each aspect and handle everything properly and in detail.

[TriniGT]

Okay got word, the car is painted . Just have the bonnet to paint, the nismo bonnet lip needs to be fitted securely and then fillered lightly and prepped and then painted entirely. painting before fitting the lip can cause the lip to crack when fitting, the lip is a flexible rubber with a metal plate to the bottom. Camera in the car already so pics tomorrow.

[TriniGT]

We have paint but under the house you cannot see the quality of the job, I love the work done thus far. The passenger front fender was quickly buffed and I am thinking once completed it should look exactly as what I was after. I had my point and shoot and this is all I could get.

Things still to be completed

Passenger Front Fender with a quick Buff

OH MY GOD

[.:PROZAC:..]

I'm taking good notes. I just washed and noticed 2 bubbles forming That's a gorgeous colour choice.

[curacaosfinest]

Loving the color!!

[R. Mutt]

Very nice. That looks very similar to the graphite grey A39 for the evo 8 MR and 9.

[copper_shot]

[TriniGT]

Thx everyone for the comments, gonna be ordering the front and rear windscreen trims and hopefully will get some of the other stuff locally. Unfortunately I need to get a front windscreen, not sure if it was cracked from before or if it happened when the trim was being removed but it has a hairline crack on the passenger side, already located one so gonna get everything to install it properly and do it right the first time.

Right now I am prepping the rear end for when it comes home, luckily the rear subframe I have home has full Nismo arms, and rear subframe bushings, just need to bracket the subframe as I am removing the hicas and in so doing the subframe does not need the flex it had with the hicas. The entire car is going to be stripped of all hicas lines and fuel hardlines and the hicas P/S pump replaced with an R33 equivalent one. The fuel lines will be replaced with dual -6AN supply lines and a single -8AN return all going back to the fuel pump filters and swirl pot and then from there fed to the stock fuel tank setup where a Nismo fuel pump will be used an a fuel pickup for the swirl pot.

Have to also decide what colour to paint the brake calipers in, I am going to be stripping the pins and nipples and thinking about trying to get a full rebuild kit for it all and then have them split and blasted and then powder coated and then rebuilt. Thoughts on colour for the calipers?

[Ted_v2]

Pink and white

[javishm]

epic colour

[moti]

Sweet paint execution done on that R.
Calliper colour should be silver (not too bright) with Nissan in red.

[Paullct]

^^ i was thinking the same, but with NISSAN in blue.

[Bacon]

The silver that you posted earlier with Brembo in white....Or yellow....

[Paullct]

so its silver calipers FTW. colour of lettering is your choice. maybe a good contrast with the choice of wheel colour

[copper_shot]

i was actually thinking black rims, black trims
yellow calipers, maybe a yellow decal somewhere for accent
yellow calipers would go great with the shade that the car is in











heres a silver brembo caliper i had done for reference

[TriniGT]

Copper_shot what's the paint code for that silver, I may do something like that with black stenciled writing as the theme is really black, silver, chrome and whatnot for the engine bay and interior so will follow through with everything else.

[copper_shot]

i just went by the paint shop and asked for a very "coarse" silver, lots of metallic
dont have a code, but that should be easy for you to get
