Yes i know what your thinking "Thats a funny looking Saxo" lol.

Well i thought i would start a build thread of my GTR, had her a few months and thought i'd share my progress with you folks on here.

ATM she has a poorly clutch which has got about as much bite as a Goldfish!

The plans are to fully strip her to the bare shell, have her resprayed Bayside Blue (Present colour), New wheels, stripped out, rollcage, Bigger Turbos, Clutch, Gearbox, Carbon Fibre etc etc..

Well iv'e not got very far as of yet , mainly due to the fact the battery is dead! lol, so i wasn't going to attempt to push her out of the garage to get her back in again.

So far iv'e stripped her of the bonnet, boot lid, spoiler, few bits under the bay, boot carpets and a few other things , will have to wait until i can get her out to remove the interior and some other bits.

Engine wise looking to go the whole hog with this , was going to turbo my old EP3 but decided against it as this came up around the same time so there was only one winner

Car will mainly be used on track and on the weekends when i fancy a mad thrash on a Sunday Morning.

Power wise, be happy with anything over 700 Bhp.

More than likely end up buying a ready prepared Forged Engine and sell mine to recoup some money.

Spec list stands at this at present

"M's Factory" Air Filters
300zx AFM's
Blitz Nur Spec Exhaust
Uprated Downpipes
Abbey Motorsport Decat Pipe
Mines VX-Rom (Mapped by Mine's Wave Japan)
HKS Double Core Intercooler (rated up to 1000 bhp)
HKS Hard Pipe Kit
Tomei Inlet Gasket Kit
Grex Oil Cooler, relocated complete with braided pipes
GReddy Iridium Plugs
HKS EVC boost Gague
Abbey Motorsport Uprated Radiator

HKS Hypermax Coilovers with adjustable dampers
Cusco Bracing
Brembo's (r33)

Some quick pics from Today.

Hmmmm where to start

Before anyone states it hasn't got a steering wheel, its because i took it off to sell it, going to stick the spare one i have on for now.

Will be sticking on a carbon boot/ spoiler when one becomes available, same for the bonnet too.

Looking lighter already lol
