Exclamation The Absolute Most EPIC Build: GT-R

A forum I frequent (high-end Luxury Everything) has a vendor there who has been working on such an EPIC GT-R build, I simply had to share with you all.
It has been going on for at least the last few months. I know there is some engine/performance mods, but the true emphasis is visual: both internal and external! There are too many pics/progress to post, so I will start here with the latest, which gives you an idea. The owner suggested, "No expense has to be spared."

Trunk partially done...not everything is tightened up yet...LED light is partially done...you can't tell but the lighting is really soft and really accents the trunk well.







The back end with new Zele under spoiler...still needs some work for fitment, though. CF is a nice but a ***** for fitment...Tommy Kaira side LED's are in and rear LED emblem is temporarily in place...where the blue tape is on the rear bumper...(we are going to try and black it out the chrome areas though for consistency)...







Headlights are done at GT-RR fabricator shop...awaiting delivery!


Other stuff:
1. Got word that the CF instrument bezel, hand brake, and gear shift **** is close to getting shipped...so hopefully 2-3wks.
2. DPE SP-SC's 21" should be done and we expect them end of next week or first of the following week...already notified our tire dealer that we are going to need some Pirelli 375/20/21 for the rear wheels...we had to tell him a couple of times because he didn't believe we were requesting 375's...he kept writing down 345's.
3. Should go to paint late next week for front bumper paint, hood repaint (fukcing stone chips), roof gloss black paint, and reclearing of all exposed CF body parts...for consistency and extra protection from yellowing...side mirror and base are already at paint for gloss black treatment.
. I know I am missing something......more pics to come.
More pics are trickling in...I'm out of town so I am getting these via email. MORE pics to come...

RE-COVERED VISORS IN SUEDE


REAR SIDE PANELS (PREVIOUSLY HARD PLEATHER/VINYL)...NOW IN SWEET PORSCHE LEATHER



REPAINTED CALIPERS WITH NEW CUSTOM GTR DECALS



KW HLS HYDRAULIC PUMP PLACEMENT (REAR RIGHT TRUNK...PANEL NEEDS TO BE MODIFIED BUT TRUNK IS ALREADY GETTING REDONE IN SUEDE ANYWAY SO NO WORRIES)


K40...UPDATED 2012 SYSTEM WIRING INSTALLED...WITH LASER DIFFUSERS


KW GOODIES PLUS NEW STEEL BRAIDED BRAKE REPLACEMENT LINES





THE NEW STEERING WHEEL (PART DEUX)...First one was great but suede was wrong shade and we had to have it redone with suede used in headliner and other parts of the GTR build.


THE NEWLY POLISHED MANIFOLD...You can't tell from the flash but it was polished then coated to have a "black chrome" look...the OEM manifold cover will be replaced by the TITEK CF version that is in house but not installed yet


THE NEWLY POLISHED AMS RESERVOIR TANK...this piece, the manifold, and the GotBoost intakes were all polished in same look...we haven't installed new GOTBOOST 3" intake tubing yet...we will wait until the ECU is tuned and new ID1000 injectors are installed.
[SIZE="5"]More Updates.... To Follow. Stay Tuned...

REST of interior should be done this week!!!!

Steering wheel is completed...THANK YOU Adrey@Specialized-Performance.com...it came out great...now to get it on the GTR!!! About 75% of all parts are in house...this build will be longer than I thought...well worth it though.

The exhaust is wayyyyy too small imo. Not feeling the brakes too much : / Would like to see more pics though for sure.

EDIT: Typed as you were putting the 2nd post up.

The "attention to detail" and most of products being used are being specifically fabricated for this car.

More shots? All I see is a roll cage...

Are you looking at ALL of the above pics? The interior is being COMPLETELY hulled out for supple hides and carbon fiber throughout!

There's a lot going on, but I think it will come together nicely.

^ Exactly. I was hoping to see an Alpha 12 build. Very disappointed.
