GSX_TC's Galant VR4 Build Thread #550/2000 (Samara)

[GSX_TC]

Here's a sneak peak of what I have in the works for the VR4. It's still being made by him currently.

Billet CNC porn








And yes these are billet runners too =)





















Billet everything!



More to come, I'll tell/show y'all more about it as it gets closer to being finished. It's such an honor to have this person do this for me. I'm so stoked!

 

[jeverts]

Looks like some nice work. What are they using for Cam software? They need to spiral the step down so you dont have the goofy angled line on the runners.

Mike, congrats on the trophy. We still need more LF shots of you, preferably mid corner.... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

wow, that manifold is looking badass! there going to be more or just a one off?

 

[89Mirageman]

The manifold is a lot sexier than the girl. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

In one of the pics she reminds me of the guy with the S2000 in the F&F.

 

[CheapTalon]

Manifold looks great. I like the raw look. As far as the girl, she's not bad. My girl is viet and she's a stunner /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif.

simple question on intake manifold:

why?

I am also curious about cost though, and seeing pics of final assembly. I still think I'll have a "why" stuck in my head regardless.

If I had a cast v3 I'd loan it to you to dyno back to back with. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/hsught.gif

 

[jeverts]

I would do it because I can. lol

Bro it's shiny, thats why. V3's aren't shiny.

 

[GSX_TC]

Actually 89Patches, V3's can be shiny as well.




I'm doing this because, it's something different that hasn't been done yet on our intake manifolds, that and I've been needing to improve my intake side of the build anyways.

The person making these made like 3 or 4 of them for himself and friends.

 

[mitsuturbo]

Yes, a V3 can be shiny. Here's mine.


I've done a bit more to it since this photo, so it's got a bit more shine to it now, particularly on the runners.
It's going in with the new stroker once i get the machine work done.

 

[89Patches]

Holy tits! Who has the time to even polish a cast manifold? That's commitment. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/worthy.gif

 

[EHmotorsports]

JSB allows for polishing time /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif

 

[prove_it]

Lack of a GF or being married leads to lots of time to polish things, manifolds, VCs, knobs.... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Well guys, Im getting a Beautiful 90' Gunmetal Grey R32 Nissan Skyline GTR!! I got approved to finance it through my bank, I'm soo thankful for this, this is a car I've wanted since I was a child. It's in Sanford, Florida right now so I'm most likely gonna have it shipped here where I live. I got it from a person who works up at Rivsu Imports, it was his personal car.

 

[EHmotorsports]

I have always liked that bodystyle. friend of mine has imported 3 in the last 4 years. only thing that has stopped me from getting one is that they are RHD.

 

[4Grim]

Congrats on getting a R32.

Do you have a house? Owning a car like that I would keep in a garage, shoot even your gvr4 I would too.

 

[89Patches]

Kewl 32 /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

N1 bumper is a nice bonus too.

 

[turbowop]

That's pretty sweet. R32 is my favorite body style of GTRs. How much is it going to set you back if you don't mind me asking?

 

[Jesus_Negros]

Mike balling like Spaulding.
