Blasphemy.........


That ain't right!!!
So theres an ongoing joke between my friends who own GTR's (or just nissan's in general- not just a joke between us I'm sure.......) about puttin an R motor in a Toyota or a 2jz in an R. Our motor is more superior than yours; your turbine(s) is/are on the wrong side; blah blah blah....

found these pics over on NoriYaro...

New shoes for the Mark II..........

SSR/Vienna 18x9.5 +18, 18x10.5 +18
Front will need a bit of spacing. Don't think im gonna be able to use my direzza's or re11's either, not enough fender clearance (sidewalls too big), so stretched ATR it is.

Oh and I'm changing the rack on the MarkII... Hopefully the one from the cresta is in good shape....

Pics up this weekend

GOT ANGLE???????

So Jeremy and Aaron have knuckles. Today I joined the club. I was able to get everything installed as well as a half assed eyeball alignment. Tried to measure but the shit wasn't coming out even so I said screw it... just went w/ the eyeball method.... just barely have tire clearance to body, but 10j +10 rubs (rear of the barrel of the wheel to body) *sigh* New wheels are more agressive offset wise (well will be w/ spacers) but not as wide, but seeing as they aren't as wide, tire selection is gonna be an issue (seein as I have a 10j w/ a 225 up front now.... same size tire is gonna be "bigger" on a 9.5 which my new wheels are. We'll see how it works out. I thought I might get be able to get away w/ not having to use the B>F>H.... guess not

Also, I'm using tie rods w/ the built in spacer, w/ the extra tie rod spacer spacer.... is that bad.. hope not haha...

Cliff notes: Installed GP Sports Knuckles, Kazama Tierods and ends, tie rod spacer, YAJ Pillowball Altezza Tension rods, steering angle is gangster... shit rubs... thats all

Pics soon....

She's Home.......

guy at the paint shop wiping her down when i picked her up





So got the markII out of the body shop. Sorry for the late post. Had a hectic end of my week... almost lost the car, if you know me you already know the story.... Pretty happy w/ it for the most part though. They did a bunch of stuff I meant to ask them to do and some stuff that I just flat out didn't expect them to do, all included in the price they told me. Not too happy about the flare though. They flared out the bottom but didn't hammer the inner skin, so though a wheel will fit static, you can't drive... so I had to go w/ a less agressive fitment. Fitment in the pics is 18x10J +18 front work xd9 and 18x9.5J -1 rear 225/40 all around. Need to space the front out but too lazy cuz I need to take the bumper off... will mess with it eventually. Also just bought some wheels. With similar sizing to this ( yea the reverse stagger is kinda gay... but i love the xd9's on the front... They are loaners though, just waiting for the knew wheels to come in. Better pics soon hopefully.......
