Default My new toy..Im so excited..what ya reckon(skyline)

Sorry I know its not a Ford but I know there are allot of skyline heads here.
Done a deal on this today and man im over the moon.
It has a huge spec and is more then capable of running big power.
It does require allot of work, but thats the fun bit.
The plan is to strip it all down and re-do the lot, as allot of attention is needed under the bonnet.
Here are a few of the plans for the future.
Remove and inspect engine etc
strip inside out and have a custom cage fitted
autronic managment
colour change, new wheels etc

Just need to sell my r33 gtr which I had removed the engine from to rebuild, but then this come up let the work commence.
Any advice info would be good.good or bad.

Nice one lads . To be honest im not a big fan of the r32 gtr, originally the plan was to put everything into the 33gtr, that was until I saw this in the flesh, it really would be a shame to break it up. It looks very nice and as Cam knows it has a bit of a spec behind it.
Really cant wait to get it all sorted.
Shall be selling a few bits of the car to help pay for other parts that I would like to have on the car. So if anybody knows of any interesting bits for this particular model,let me know.
thanx again for the complements
Heres a pic of the engine bay:

lol Keith, Filters are with the car, but as I stated it does require some work under the bonnet.
I need to decide on what managment to use and also need a set of 1000cc injectors.
Its currently running a standard crank, what sort of power is this good for.

STEVE ( itsmeagain ) have pm the spec over to you, let me know what you think, and if you can advice on it.
thanx

Thanx for the comment but the spec is a about a page long.
The reason it has been sent out to a few people as they are in the know how and they would understand it.

So if its a shit thread kindly piss off and dont read it then you Pr!!!

I would be interested in seeing the spec. Might not understand all of it but I know of several 32 GTR owners who may.

Post it up

cant be that bad cos you bought one and about 8 spare rondells as well, just remember not every one as as much money as you. any way i seem to remember agreeing a price over the number plate COS5Y for Ł5500 and when the retention came you said you wanted Ł7000 for it. i have since seen pms you sent to someone regarding the plate and i know you ended up selling it for less than the Ł5500 i agreed to give you.

Sean - what's that got to do with anything?

If you've got an axe to grind, take it elsewhere - the majority of the people on this forum aren't blinkered, and appreciate a fast car, no matter what the badge.
