Was just cleaning out my phone and realised I had some more pics, couldn't be bothered starting another thread because the thread would be about 4yrs long until it's finished.

My next stage is to buy a brand new firewall from japan, have that fitted, chassis rails fixed, passenger guard replaced, inner guard fixed and then have the entire front half of the car resprayed.

I really hope someone knows how to put GTR's back together because it's giving me nightmares seeing it in so many pieces with wires and crap everywhere and wondering if it will ever look like a clean '94 GTR again :yucky:

Edit: If anybody feels motivated to help me remove all engine bay contents (minus the motor of course) and has tools and a spare weekend feel free to contact me.

bugger you are in for a nasty time.

just book in the club engine crane one weekend and supply some beer.... I am sure we can get it out pretty easy :whistling: last one we did came out in 2.5 hours

Engine and everything is already out, just need to get the little bits n pieces out now... brake system, abs system, remaining a/c parts, remove the wiring harness then get it ready for the panel beater.

    • What is the "compromise" that you think will happen? Are you thinking that something will get damaged? The only things you have to be concerned about with spherical jointed suspension arms are; Arguments with the constabulary wrt their legality (they are likely to be illegal for road use without an engineering certificatation, and that may not be possible to obtain). A lot more NVH transmitted through to the passengers (which is hardly a concern for those with a preference for good handling, anyway). Greatly increased inspection and maintenance requirements (see above points, both).   It is extremely necessary to ask what car you are talking about. Your discussion on strut tops, for example, would be completely wrong for an R chassis, but be correct for an S chassis. R32s have specific problems that R33/4 do not have. Etc. I have hardened rubber bushes on upper rear control arms and traction rods. Adjustable length so as to be able to set both camber and bump steer. You cannot contemplate doing just the control arms and not the traction arms. And whatever bushing you have in one you should have in the other so that they have similar characteristics. Otherwise you can get increased oddness of behaviour as one bushing flexes and the other doesn't, changing the alignment between them. I have stock lower rear arms with urethane bushes. I may make changes here, these are are driven by the R32's geometry problems, so I won't discuss them here unless it proves necessary. I have spherical joints in the front caster rods. I have experienced absolutely no negatives and only positives from doing so. They are massively better than any other option. I have sphericals in the FUCAs, but this is driven largely by the (again) R32 specific problems with the motion of those arms. I just have to deal with the increased maintenance required. Given how much better the front end behaves with the sphericals in there.....I'd probably be tempted to go away from my preference (which is not to have sphericals on a road car, for 2 of the 3 reasons in the bulleted list above), just to gain those improvements. And so my preference for not using sphericals (in general) on a road car should be obvious. I use them judiciously, though, as required to solve particular problems.
    • Easiest way to know is to break out the multimeter and measure it when cold, then measure all the resistances again once it gets hot enough to misfire. Both the original ignitor and the J Replace version. Factory service manual will have the spec for the terminal measurements.
