Finally!

The R34 is done and i'm very happy and tbh astonished with how the paint came out and how its looking overall!
Before i move onto the pics i wanna tell you all what we did and bought etc.

Parts; First of i decided we need NISMO bumpers and the sideskirts, so i searched for hours but just decided to buy brand new from NISMO which cost me around $1400 for all parts since they were unpainted.
Secondly we had to decide rims. So i went to a local distributor and found Work Meister M1R's with a chrome lip and black center. Any colour lugnuts were also thrown in for free so i chose blue to contrast against the paint. They cost us $1000 as they were literally new, just come from the factory!

We did a run to UpGarage! which got me going for bonnet catches or hood pins and they look racekor so i got them for like $10 as they were on sale!
Next we needed an exhaust for the car to sound mean with its new engine! I picked up a HKS Hi-Power Full exhaust from manifold back which means we could also get a custom single turbo manifold made up which all totalled to $1200.
Now speaking of turbo's which one did we get? .. Of course it had to be a massive Garett turbo, The exact turbo is called GTX4708R and its capable of 720-1270 bhp which means we have to go at least forged internals to handle the boost. So we went with a Stage 1 Apexi Crankshaft, Stage 2 JUN Conrods and Pistons, HKS 280 Series Cams and a Modified 70mm Plenum. A Mishimoto Front mount and rad also helped cool and make boost for us. They all cost us around $3000 for everything.

The car is lowered on HKS Hipermax Series 3 Coilovers and still retains the original Brakes and Rotors with Ferodo Brake pads for track use. HEL braided lines also help us stop better with the huge power were capable of. They cost $1700.
Paint also cots us $2000 since it was in the booth for 2 days then we had to get paint etc.
The Engine must be a RB! So it is. We've used a Stroker kit with the JUN and Apexi parts which makes the RB26 now a RB28DET instead of DETT because a Massive single turbo is more reliable than twins sadly.

Now pics of this beast. No engine bay pics yet but admire the car as a whole!





Hope you guys love it as much as we do!
