1995 Nissan Skyline GTR V-Spec - [GODZLR]

Unlike the previous cars I have modified, this is my very first boosted ride...and what a way to welcome it in.

Plans for this car is to make it a Top 50 contender at Perth's Motorvation in 20010-12.

The car will be a 3-5 year project, working on areas that most Perth Skylines forget or refuse to work on. Reliability and handling are key areas I'll be working on, as a lot of the performance stuff is already done to the car already and I'm pretty happy with it.

Some videos of the car in action: (taken 01-12-07)

Performance

As mentioned above, reliability is one of the main things I am after with this car. Many tend to neglect simple parts and find themselves in deep water when something blows up.

Below is a list of modifications performed to the car to date. It is estimated that the car puts down 350hp atw on 0.8 bar.

Twin HKS 2530s with twin Blitz BOVs

Trust FMIC (all polished)

HKS polished hard pipe kit

HKS pod filters

Kakimoto Racing 3 1/2" exhaust with NISMO front pipes and hi flow cat

Multiplate Clutch

HKS F-CON V PRO GOLD engine management

HKS EVC dual stage electronic boost controller with display screen

GREX engine oil cooler

GATES racing timing belt kit

Very soon Nismo injectors, fuel pump, HKS Twin Power and possibly Tomei Poncams will be installed and that will be the final installment for the performance department. Power wise an estimate of 420-440hp atw may be able to be achieved.

Handling

At the present time, CUSCO coilover suspension takes care of the handling department. Recently the car was risen to legal road height, and will be kept that way for streetability. Handling wise the car seems to have kept its composure.

Bushes and front and rear swaybars are the next items to be improved / replaced.

Style

17x9.5" A-Tech Final Speed forged wheels with 245/45/17 rubber

Polished engine bay (more stuff to come to make it look better i.e braided hoses)

NISMO bonnet Lip

Smoked Nismo side indicator lenses.

Tomei oil cap and ARC radiator cap and cover.

*to be fitted shortly*

Gandor side mirrors (non cf)

Great looking car, good to see your about handling and reliability. Its a common downfall with us all.
The wheels set off the factory paint job beautifully, and your under bonnet is nice and clean.
Best of luck with achieving your goals

Learnt a lot about the car on the day, however still have a fair way to go to understanding how it behaves etc.

Enjoy
