Welcome to our forum and
congrats to that immaculate car. Looks like all modifications have been conducted in a very professional manner.
Question: is that the standard speedometer? Would like to know where to get one.

take care mate

Hi GTOX

First of all , welcome to our gt forum.
I bet almost everybody here is able to speak and understand the english language...(more or less 8-[ :-D )
but anyway, it´s maybe easier for you to write in english.
Secondly, it looks like you did a great job, bro....very nice Lady.
It would be interesting to see some engine pics ;-)

For now, enjoy it and be careful...

cheers Steve

Great car, I particularly like the speedometer and the steering wheel. They are awesome :-D

Thank you all for the warm welcome :)

The speedometer is not standard, it is made by a Japanese tuning company Pit Road M, you first must send your complete instrument cluster to them and they will install the 300km/h face (and remove 180km/h limiter on Japanese cars). It is VERY expensive and not an easy process due to the language barriers :lol:

The steering wheel is a fake/copy of the MOMO Millennium Evo steering wheel, I bought it off ebay and had the center horn 'GTO' button custom made. I also used some carbon fiber look vinyl over the aluminium, here is how it looks now:

You might recognise the coilovers (German made KW variant 3) 8)

Here are some engine bay pics:

The car will be changing a lot over the next few months as I have many parts sitting in my garage waiting to be installed, such as 1999 front end and sail panels, Deft 575 fiberglass hood, carbon fiber drive-shaft, bigger oil cooler, bigger radiator, dual-core front mount intercooler, polished pipe kit and polyutherane engine mounts to name a few. I would also like to upgrade my 9b turbos to something a bit bigger like DR750 or 19T turbos =P~ I drive the car everyday so finding the time to modify it is the hardest part but I will post more pictures when the work is done...

Tim.

Body modifications and paint complete (GTR Midnight Purple color).

DR750 billet turbos/front mount intercooler/other supporting mods in hand and soon to be installed.

Also looking for wider wheels to fill flared wheel guards :)

Pretty showcar. Do you have dyno data yet? I would like to learn how the DR750 turbos do the job...
