i'm not sure on what 'box's there are that could handle the torque from the RB26,compared to the RB20 that Chunk had at first,this will put out alot more power

what gearbox are you using mate?

Reeeeeeet, Itttsssssssssss updaaaateeeeeee tiiiiiiiimeeeeeeeee!!


Well, BIG changes to my plans, although the outcome will still be very similar.

I've bought a new 4 door!!





But most importantly...............






It's a GTS-4, so still 4WD, but as it's R32GTR running gear, its switchable, although when im back out of hospital, it will have a full 2wd conversion using parts off my old car

It has some unknown brand coliovers on it which arn't too clever, but there reasonable. Other than that, it's pretty stock.

I've put a new exhaust on as the old one crapped itself within 2 days of me owning it haha, so thanks to Japspeed for that, although i still have to fit the downpipe as the studs looked like they were gonna snap and i want to take it to santa pod on the 5th for it's 1st skid

I've also bought some 11j x 17" with unknown offset (as i CBA to measure it haha) and they sit surprisingly well.............







Obviously the arches will be rolled anyway and the camber sorted, and there is a lot more work to be done to get it up to spec for next years BDC.

Quick thanks to Hart Motors/ZworX/EPRacing and Gaz Moose for all there help so far
