2 months later. i picked up a JDM HID front end


and itr wing


Then got some suspension goodies


cleaned her up a bit






Came with original cluster


Slowly coming together


Picked up some Recaros


Mugen LSD


Bought some brand new jdm itr gm rims!






the shop had 1 mugen intake in stock...





Car at the shop getting ready to get front end installed...


messy




After about 1 hour or so..







still needs some work...

More parts..






Last piece that was purchased last week...


the car should be going into paint by next month.. i hope. after that. the rest should go much faster..

pic of my current ride.. 98 gsr w/ JDM ITR swap.

 

looking good, drop that b18c in the type-r not the gsr how much longer do you think your going to be working on this

 

thanks man!! im guessing about another 2 months.

 

wow.

nice parts you got there

 

yea i got 12g to pay off on the aR before i start purchaseing my head build up and my conversion. not to mention i have no daily driver

 

nice! i can't wait for mind jdm rims from icb nice job though and keep up the great job

 

cool man. yeah. i also bought my front end from ICB. soo cool that he is local in AZ.

 

wow looks good man keep us up to date

 

I take it you dont deliver pizzas for a living, man of very deep pockets

 

Nice pics... I'll start my tread soon. As soon as i find a secure spot for the R (fukcing theives). My car is already stripped and they jumped my boy's fence to steal more parts!!!

 

WOOWWWW....ALOT OF $$ THERE LOL...LETS SEE SOME UPDATES

 

Those Rays lugnuts are probably tapered, when you need the acorn style to work with those OEM wheels. Check them before you throw 'em on, as that's not really safe to mix and match and can cause problems.

 

Get a GSR hatch window for her, it'll look cleaner

 

Looks like a fun project, it should look really nice when you are all done with her. Post some more pics when you get her done.

 

holy **** those recaros are mint. everything else is for that matter. im jealous

 

looks good. coming along nicely

 

Nice parts there, seems to be coming along nicely

Just dont use the Ray nuts with the OEM wheels and youll be fine

Nice project you got there.

I love the parts that you are using

 

Congrats on the project! It's great to see an R come back to life, especially a 97! A USDM front would of been better, but oh well, looks like you're doing everything right

very very nice. tasteful mods

 

Wow Dude. You're one lucky R owner.

I wish I had some time and money to do something like this. Keep us posted.


Love your daily driver too. I have a CGP with an all motor setup and looking to do black spoon sw388's but wasn't sure how it would look. Thanks for showing me how great it would look

 

very nice build. Can't wait to see her on the road.

 

Man, how much investment is this?

 

looks really good so far

 

Wow nice build...can't wait to see the final product
