Haha still works well!! It's 14 years old now, had a fair bit of use in Japan and now me in Australia.
I would like to try one of th

But I will always keep the OMP, that wheel is special

Wow! was it in a rollover? that roof is cactus gonna look wicked when the conversion is done tho.

Yep, I think he tried to drift or do a burnout or something, back right hit the gutter and it rolled.
Konig wheels are rubbish too, all 4 wheels have had the barrels separated from the inner lips, completed rolled apart!
I'll grab some pictures mid next month when I start pulling the engine out.

I bought some more wheels.. Weds 16x9 +22 all round. This is my second set of GTR fitment wheels. Sweet!
They are 5 stud. I plan to use a pair on the front for steering, my 5 stud front hubs will be here late March/early April.
I'm in love though

Sweet conditionz

Here we go, picture of my new wheels

Even have some Federal FZ's on the rear, these things are huge

And here is the blue thing

Great looking car. It's a 1989 Executive. Bought it from an old fella who has owned it for 11 years, serviced at the mechanic down the road the whole time. Great condition, panels are all straight, paint is good except for clear fading on the roof/bonnet. Interior is great, nice and tidy, no broken bits etc.

Plan goes like this:

Pull the RB25 out of the R33, remove RB30 from blue car, put RB25 + manual box in.

Once the engine is running in the blue car, I will remove the suspension from my white R31 and put in the blue R31.

I also want to build another diff with a full spool and 4.11 gears.

So that's the plan! I was going to fix up my white r31, but for the money it was much better to just buy another car. I will continue to drift my white car (next day is Matsuri in May) until I'm ready to change my gear over to the blue car. Then I'll leave it as is, stock interior/exterior and enjoy it on the street and the track, I miss driving r31 on the street.

Cheers guys!

Here is a picture dump for the blue car

Twins!

Has anyone seen this before, is it a Nissan/dealer thing? Or something the old owner put there? The piece of fabric covering the back of the seats/rear shelf. Fits perfectly around the edges/brake light etc.

Came with 4 spare stock wheels/tyres which is good. Between these and the ones on the car, I should have a set of good'ns for road worthy

Little bit of a crack on the passenger side tail light, doesn't appear to leak though

This is a new first for me as well, I haven't seen a car with these before - seems to be a support for the edges of the front bar. That must mean this one is a good example of an R31?

And the two books that came with the car, check out the bottom of the Gregorys manual

Haha! Looks like the old fella borrowed this from the library and never took it back, maybe? Very happy to have hard cover manuals either way
