Engine rebuilt by Dave Conway at Pro-Power Engines in Saanichton B. C.  Crank was micro-polished and collar for oil pump drive installed. New N1 oil pump and N1 water pump. New ACL race bearings were sent to Calico for their bearing coating to bring crank/bearing clearances back to spec. Rotating assembly was balanced to within 1/10 of a gram.

C. P. forged pistons and Manley rods with ARP rod bolts were installed after block was bored . 005 over stock to clean all cylinders. The head was machined for trueness. and all 24 valve guides were re-drilled for alignment and new bronze guides were installed. The valves were lapped in. A metal Cometic Head gasket and ARP head studs were used in assembly. Metal Cometic intake gaskets were used. The head intake and exhaust ports were relieved. combustion chambers polished. and the stock exhaust manifolds were ported and relieved to match head. A new timing belt. belt idler and belt tensioner were installed ( Nissan OEM parts).

The 6 throttle bodies were all re-sealed. the injectors were cleaned and flow tested. The main body of the intake (plenum) is Powder Coated Blue. The engine has a new water temp sensor. new intake air temp sensor. new throttle positioning sensor. new oil pressure sending unit. 3 new accessory belts. and a new 3” aluminum radiator.

Royal purple engine oil and a K&N filter. fresh anti-freeze both done recently. ALL the other gear oils are Red-line synthetic. and recently changed. 2 Greedy/Trust Airlinx muffin type air-filters are used. The clutch was just replaced with an A. C. T. Racing clutch. thro-out and pilot bearings. flywheel was resurfaced and new dowels were installed. Fresh NGK Copper plugs recently installed. This engine easily and quickly revs to 8. 00 RPM without skipping a beat. The factory boost restrictor was removed by a previous owner. but I've installed a new Vibrant Manual Boost Controller. This will increase the boost from the stock7 PSI to a SAFE 12. 5 – 13 PSI. The turbos were thoroughly examined for wear and shaft end-play during engine rebuild. They are the stock turbos with the ceramic vanes. NOT safe to run more than 13PSI. New braided re-enforced stainless steel water cooling lines for the turbos were added. I have installed a switch which will turn off the front wheel drive and ABS. for your pre-launch burnouts.

The brake pads were replaced with Hawk Street Performance Pads. and the rotors were turned. It has an HKS Super Dragger Stainless Steel Cat-Back exhaust. The Catalytic converter is still in place. There is 90% tread life on the 4 Michelin Pilot Exalto AS 225/50/R16 tires. The rims are the factory GT-R ultra-light wheels. There are front and rear IMPUL strut tower bars (adjustable). Last summer. a 4 wheel alignment was done. It has an Optima Red-Top battery with Gold battery terminals. There is an E-Brake Drift Button installed. but the stock E-Brake handle comes with it. The Coil-pack cover is also included. and is in excellent condition. but the coils last longer without the heat being trapped in by the cover.

The only body mod is the very rare TOMEI rear tail light covers. The car also has the rare Skyline floor mats. front rear. and rear hump. The only flaw in the whole interior is the exit side of the driver seat side bolster. very typical due to the height of the side bolsters in these cars. It has a Sony Explode CD player with XFINITY speakers.

The exterior paint is average for a 24 year old car. There is a small dent in the hood. which is aluminum. 2 very small dings in the right side. 2 blemishes on the rear rubber bumper. and the only sign of rust on the entire car is showing as blistering the paint in the left rear wheel-well of the quarter panel. I won't fix it as I'm not trying to hide anything. The Speedo has been replaced. as indicated by the decal in the door jamb on the driver's side. This was used in calculating the vehicle's actual mileage when converting the Kilometers to Miles. The car will easily go faster than the speedo's capable of displaying.

The car comes with a binder from the original Japanese owner. and includes the full service history. It was imported from Japan in 2004. and has had 3 owners since. I will include a CD Rom that has a complete Nissan Owners Service and Repair Manual for the GT-R. in English. I have a folder with receipts for all of  the parts I've put into the car.

This vehicle is currently only eligible for import to U. S. if used for Auto Shows. or Race-track use. It cannot be licensed for road use until December of 2014.
