Default Hey from Kamloops BC

Hey all!
Name is Charlie.
Skyline owner that want's a capable motor to beat on the autocross and drift tracks with.
Got a kinda hearbreaking Skyline story...
Its a long story. bittersweet. I must add that none of my accidents were in any way my fault or avoidable.

#1 1990 GTS-t. GTR look a like, minor performance mods. Gorgeous. Rearended at HWY speed. Written off.



#2 1992 GTS (non turbo) project car. Rearended. Written off. (made $4000 from insurance on this one)


#3 1991 GTS-t 4 door. Origin kit. Champagne paint. Started to mod the motor. Rearended. Written off. (I made another $4000 off this one)


#4 (current one, and I'm keeping this one dammit) 1991 GTS-t. 4 door. Same Origin Kit. RB25 NEO BB turbo, GTR injectors, wally 255 fuel pump, JIC Magic Coilovers, splitfire coils, GReddy FMIC. 275hp/268 tq @ 18psi. Soon to get cams, adj cam gears, light flywheel, 3 puck clutch, and nistune. Will be good for 350hp on this setup (Until the LS1 goes in this winter when my 1995 STi Type RA arrives). This car won top Import at the show in this pic.

And the good stuff. This is what I am basing my build off of. The motor mounts on the block line up with the stock skyline motor mounts, just needs an adapter made.


slighly altered and beefed up tranny brace.

plenty of clearance back there.

So much more room!

Starter JUST BARELY clears the steering box.

Just about lines up perfect!

I will be running something similar, but with some kind of a speedometer.
