That car will be awesome! Can't wait to see how it all comes together.

DISCLAIMER: I take no responsibility in any damage/harm/death/missing limbs that may result from following the above advice.

Picked the car up form paint today. It better then I could think of AND More! I am stoaked! These are just some pics in the garage but it really does not do the paint justice. In the sunlight it shows the metallic ALOT more and the paint just has alot of depth to it! At different angles the paint has a purple hint to it...i LOVE IT. Paint was a 2005 nissan/infinity color (g35 and other cars) I will get alot more pics updated now I have the car and can work on it. Later!

I love that interior and the powerplant....Im nominating your ride for the upcoming NICO calendar...

The paintjob is pristine, like factory or better. Looking good, can't wait to see the final product.

Also got some new gauges to match my tach;

I <3 DEFI:)

SHES IN!!!! welcome home:)

Houston we have a problem.....
Fuel rail is hitting the hood. AHHHH. My valve cover is about 1/4-1/2" from the hood. The fuel rail is about 1" to high. Any suggestions would be great. Different fuel rail? Different injectors? Speak up!

Shifter(stock..b&m should be here soon) Fits snug

ANd....with the cover

Anyone say dynamat?

Painless fusebox, sr wire harness, fuel pump relays, ignitor chip all tucked nicely into place. When the dash is on its hard to see it unless you look hard form underneath.

More room then I thought for the radiator. Going to get the crank pully machines off isince I have done away with A/c and P/S..which will make more clearence.

Body harness and Motor harness hid away becasue I want my engine bay CLEANNNNN. Motor harness will be under the intake manifold, body harness will be off the the very left hidden.

FMIC stickin out a Little bit but who cares. Also got some rubber surround so it doesnt rub. ITS TIGHT.. but I am still going to weld on some brackets

side view...paint is aweosmeeeee

thats it for now..... ENJOI!

BLing bling'n diff.

STOCK SUCKS

and to conclude a rare little jem known as the Veilside titanium teardrop muffler. WOOT

finished the rest of the dash. Im debating weather or not this gauge setup suits this car. I had no other place to put them. suggestions, comments, questions?

I have done a writeup on my R200 conversion....
http://www.ozdat.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=8679

As for gauges I would flip the mount upside down and put them under you monitor/headunit!?!?

FMIC done (after my 3rd one)its tight fit

end tanks for the intercooler fit PERFECT right up to the frame rails enought for a fairly large radiator

Smile your on canbdid camera haha my bro got me putting me headlight bezel in
the middle part of the grill is getting rechromed and powdercoated BTW

HID's done and fitted...NO room for ERROR..

YES they are bright (4100k bulbs)

Carpet and interior coming together

Have you been stealing my thoughts???? I moved my low beams in and use it to feed my intake and my oil cooler, which is just out of the frame to the left in the pic below and you can just get a glimpse of the intake on the right. So in my opinion.....looks crappy you should definitely change that setup ....just kidding, looks great!

Great 510

You posting some bonus pics here that we don't get on 510realm?

need to share the love man!

This is a crazy project, but I guess, after selling an evo 7, after this project, you'll still have money to spare to spend on smoked tires.. Sweeeeeet.... Love the steering wheel..http://forums.nicoclub.com/zeropost?cmd=reply&id=2261821#

Turbo is a bit to big for my liking, I'm looking into either a GT2860RS, and maybe some camwork later on, or GT2871R with .64 A/R and 52 or 48 Trim Compressor

Any suggestions? My car is daily driven, so turbo response should be as instant as superhumanly possible, but still making around 350-360hp@engine..

Suggestions please???

Regarding CV's, I think there is a place called TSR Fabrication or something owned by Mario Lozano who specializes in 510's, they fabricate a lot of custom stuff.. I think it's in CA..

Let me know if you get bored of the seats,door trims,steering wheel,headlights,gauges LOL..

Where are the updates??

Wouldn't mind seeing the progress of the custom pick up either, any thread on this?

Mark

S30: "The Rusty Mistress" stripped bare and getting rebuilt from the ground up,
Z31: 315 whp 416 lbft, placed 7th at the GRM $2009 challenge
Z32: now with sport 500's! For Sale

Re: Crossmember, if the position of the engine is lower, did you also modify the transmission mounts and rear diff? I would suspect that it would change the whole geometry?

How did it go, is it done yet?

What diff are you using? I currently have a problem fitting an R32 Shortnose R200, lots of stuff has to be fabricated and changed, there aren't that many R200's around though, so that's the one I could get a hold of. Do you have any ideas regarding this? or Anyone?

Thanks,

Mark

I know you may prefer not to say, so maybe i could contact you privately. BUT, how did you spend? I am only asking b/c i would nlike to do somethign similar

I have not modified the diff or the tranny mount. I think thatt once the motor is lowered it will be in proper allignment from the tranny to the diff. *hope* lol. I am using a r200LSD long nose. It will bolt in with a custom mustache bar and the driveline will need to be shortened. I am not sure if I will be using the stock half shafts(modified of course) for the time being or shell out some$$$ for custom CV axles.

I would leave the gauges on the dash, it's safer as you can still keep an eye on the road.. Not sure if defi produces speedometers, I would get one to suit the tach.. I'm sure the needle of the stock speedo would do a 360 if it could on the drag strip.. Let me know if you get bored of the seats,door trims,steering wheel,headlights,gauges LOL.. Where are the updates?? Wouldn't mind seeing the progress of the custom pick up either, any thread on this? Mark

Defi does not make speedo's...bummer i know.its okay cuz my navigation unit has a digital MPH readout on it:D:D ahhaa Im not sure if ill get board with all those parts cuz I havent even got to use em yet!!! Updates are slow...

am very interested to know what you did to solve the height problem you had with the engine in? I know you may prefer not to say, so maybe i could contact you privately. BUT, how did you spend? I am only asking b/c i would nlike to do somethign similar

I have not checked on my car for a few weeks..so im nit sure if its been solved. HOPEFULLY lol.
In reality ive gone alot more then my budget(~20k) im actually coming up over the 30k mark. Which to most people..is absurd and think im mentaly unstable but jdm=MONEEEEY and doin it right.

I would definitely go to CV, especially with the GT30, you wouldn't want the halfshafts coming loose, and it'll give you peace of mind..

Well, I think I'll be hitting the 20k mark when I'm done, but it's well worth it.. The car is so much fun, even with stock SR.

Still no updates??

as far as downpipe goes..havent got one on yet. I have mocked one up and there will be tons of room for clearance, my log manifold puts the turbo pretty forward. The only TIGHT sqeeze is between the 3" d/p and my brake booster but I am fabricating a sheet metal barrier and have some high temp gold heat material to put on:)

I was reading your post and thought brake booster, downpipe?? Hehehe.. Then realized.. LHD of course..
