Michelin Man R32 gtst , Cause its White and Fat

[KEBAB_DRIFTER]

Hi Everbody


Not %100 on thread name ... What do you think?



This is my 1993 R32 gtst Skyline



I orginally was more of a go and and clean look kinda guy , but since i heard the term 'FLUSH or STANCE '' ive been hooked

This is how i bought the car fairly stock , a set of fail offset ''dirty dog'' 19x8.5 '' wheels some bomex side skirts , cat back exhaust and a M Spec front bar.







To cut a long story short turns out the motor in the car was stolen ..... great fun

So this low 90,000km RB20DET Auto Engine was in my garage
how did i know it was low k and in good condition just buy looking at it it was immac
had alot of fun ripping the auto spigot bush out (PRICK OF A ThING)



I now had the task of removing the old motor and gearbox , can you tell which motor is the new one?



some where along the line i bought a fibreglass GTR bumper



Nice new clutch and flywheel while the gbox was off , its just a HD Organic as the rb20 gbox are like glass imo





steering rack solid bush




Bigger turbo ( Ebay spec , but hey the same guy makes billet crankshafts cant be too bad )

btw still going stong and has been for 6months seeing full boost everyday



new turbo next to the stock one






New deep dish steering wheel





2 weekends later i had a running car


running on stock wheels 16x6.5''




took it for a little spin , nothing fancy




More to come, maybe some of these to suit the theme?

GTR front bar looks good man, bummer about the auto box! Interesting to hear the ebay turbo worked out well, I hear some real horror stories about them lol. Thought about some wheels? Apart from the Michelin ones obviously... Haha.

maybe ronal bears on the other side lol

Wow. Very nice work so far. More info on michelin man wheels!!!

The car is manual , the motor came from a low k auto

If only the michelin's were wide with low offset !!!! Just a random pic i found on the net

So i replaced the stock dump pipe with a 3'' bellmouth
increased the spool time as the turbo is quite big and a little laggy , nothing a clutch kick doesnt fix LOL



So while the motor was getting installed i replaced the timining belt and water pump (big job for a first timer)

in went a new 52mm radiator , and would you know it big lauch and the fan hit the radiator smashed it to pieces and broke my new water pump $$$ later had it going again



Picked up a genuine N1 GTR bumper , these things are so much bigger and bulkier then the fibreglass copys , only problem is its missing an intake vernt but im chasing one up

gave it a coat of paint in the shed

Ok , so a bit of an update ran a set of EUROLINE 18x9 +20 front 18x9 +20 rear for a little while












ran some 19x8 30 somthing offset BBS MESH C1 copies plus polished the car up and can see the genuine gtr front bar














Got some aftermarket mirrors from GKTECK.COM










Bought some Rota grid r in gunmetal 18x9 +25 with a 8 mm slip on front and 18x9.5 +25 rear and got some low

Tien HR Coil overs maxxed out
