Yeah, I like his other one much more. Looked great with those wheels. One of my favs on here actually.
I'm probably biased though bc I don't really prefer rep v3.

Holy shnickies! Did you change up the entire setup? Looks boss, but I loved your purple Volks.

I mean replica Nismo, not the actual kit being a rep kit. Damn bro, $$$$$ on that kit!

That hood!

Correct me if I am wrong MM, but GTM built you a motor and did a crap job on the heads and when Uprev in Austin to get is tuned and toasted his motor with said heads. He bought a stock block, got it all back together with cams. I helped checking the car's fuel pressure ms checking the car over before it went back on the dyno after my car.

He had many tuning issues, got it going finally and it has taken him to the present where he is now about to boost a built motor

It was only supposed to be my Heads to work on, meaning new valves new valve spring and cams. They ended up no machining the valve seats to match the new valves. They turned on the car like that making a terrible rattling noise and doing that for days, would even leave the car on for hours to make the rattling noise of the valves slapping the unmatching valve seats. Reason they found out at Uprev the was not going ring properly and could not warranty their work was because they found a bunch of metal shavings in the oil pan from the damage the valves had done to the heads. I finally bought a brand new VQHR motor and had Uprev install the cams without valve train. Which is what I have now the other block is the one I sent and just got back from Darton from getting MID sleeves installed. Now the heads are redone with port and polish and 1mm+ valves and new valve guides and JWTC1HR camshafts with their valtrain and cam bolt mod. Everything will begin this month. Waited so long for this.

eek. Last place I'd take my engine to is GTM. Probably wouldnt get it back for year(s). I guess that's water under the bridge now. But for 600whp, stock HR motor can deal!

As for where you're at right now, that is exciting. What turbo kit you plan on running, seeing the GTM bankruptcy and Greddy not having a kit out at the moment? I've read your thread but didnt see what direction you;re taking.

They stop producing that kit because of certain issues, one being the cast exhaust manifolds were cracking under engine torque. Suppose to be redesigning a new and better one but no time table for how long till release.
