I also made the templates for the Nismo brake ducts. Following Rusty's thread has made the process much easier. There are a few things to determine before ordering the actual duct kit from Stillen - brackets and hoses - but it's getting sorted.

WHile all of this is going on, the idea of just getting a GT-R keeps floating around in my head. From discussions with mrs. gurney, that seems to be where they are going to stay.

I'll keep you posted. :icon17:

Have a great day all! :tiphat:

do you have the brake ducts? if you have the nismo ducts.. would you be interested in lending them to me so that I can make a more affordable version?

The Houston group has already been discussing that idea! :tup:

You can rent my GTR for 2,000$

Good morning everyone! Pretty busy day off for me. Surprising hubby with a trip to the track tower today. Poor thing has never been beyond the road leading to parking.

Hey there Mr. Gurney :hello: I'm with you on the whole oil cooler thing. I'm trying to decide whether to get a small, budget-oriented one that will work great for DD and also be able to hang for a bit of track time or a huge, expensive one that will allow me to drive at 7500 RPMs on the track for hours at a time :icon17:

Hi there, Ms. Pint :hello: Enjoy your day off. They're doing the tour every Wednesday, right? I think I might see if the wife wants to go next week if possible :tup:

Hi mr. JAR - On advice from Matt and Guru, I'm going with the 25 row Z1 set-up, including the wrapped hoses and thermostatic plate. The guys say it's no problem installing this ourselves, so it's going to be a serious tech day to install the oil cooler, as well as the Nismo RC grille, brake ducts, and Stillen brake cooling kit.

Didn't I just say a month ago that I was done with mods? :bowrofl:

In the end, it will have been cheaper to buy a GT-R!

Saw this ashy GTR downtown at the antique store yesterday. I love the ride, but that thing needs a bath and shampoo.:shakes head:
