nitro_d 0 Posted June 20, 2013 (edited) Sourced full R34 Gt-t brake setup bolted up pretty easily. Got some rda slotted and dimpled rotors, not sure what pads ill run, either greenstuffs or a1rms. Going to delete abs and use a non-abs master cylinder from a r33 or z32, or might go with a wilwood setup. Engine bay almost stripped for sanding and respray. Split headlights, cleaned em up inside and out and tinted the high beam lens If anyone is interested in the head or the block Im trying to get rid of them and will let them go cheap.... Can also see extent of damage from the clutch explosion Edited June 20, 2013 by nitro_d Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brent47 57 Posted July 27, 2013 (edited) There's a couple Neo's kicking around but I'm hesitant on buying one, I struggle with these things unless it's literally in a car running and appears flawless Paranoia lol Looking good mate, excited to see the mods you go Edited July 27, 2013 by brent47 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ru55kj 1 Posted August 15, 2013 Does RB require that much bashing to fit? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nitro_d 0 Posted August 16, 2013 Dunno haven't got a motor to check. I just guessed and had to flatten the damage from the clutch anyway Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nitro_d 0 Posted August 27, 2013 One more layer with some easy sanding bog to leave a nice finish. Pretty much done with repairs. Bought a motor and gearbox. Came out of a 4 door automatic, 80,000kms stock as a rock, never boosted. Also got a mint r33 gearbox. Paid a very good price Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nitro_d 0 Posted August 27, 2013 Also getting a mate to spray the engine bay a metallic gun metal grey like colour. Not going to paint it until I test fit motor and box so I don't have to bash the nice fresh paint. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
