Well quickly, I have had this car in the 3rd build for a few years now.
Bought it like this back in 2002.
Then bought a VLCT as a Daily.
Then built it up like this. Did Motorvation and a few other shows.
Then got sick of the 3.3 Blue and built a Red 202 bored to 208 with all the fruit, Y/T head, cam and triples etc
Then wanted more. Bought a 5L EFI doner.
Applied for modification permit to run the 5L. Got rejected.
Bought this.
Applied for a RB25DET. Got approved.
Now in the process of getting the motor into the LC. While sorting out approvals and motors, decided to strip and put in a massive amount of work to the body and ended up with this.
So anyway, thought I would jump on here again as I know there is a lot of RB gurus who might be interested and also help me out.
Cheers guys.

Looks nice man, any plans besides just sticking motor box in? Upgraded turbo, ecu etc?

The aim is to keep it street legal so yeah as long as it stays that way.
Need to buy a computer to run it. When I bought the R33, the guy cut out the ECU straight though the harness. 3 harness later ($600) it still wasnt running, so now its on the shed floor.
Will probably go after market ECU but not sure what?

Going to buy mounts from CRS. But sump hope to get made. Either alloy or just steel if it starts to get hard. Chassis kit from CRS too.
I have heard from a few though the CRS gear is not that great.
