I really hope it isn't for their sake, but being around them for the last 14 years there are so many alarm bells going off here. Given the price they are now, I still think they did okay, but I would allow another $10-20k or getting this fixed. Again, I hope I'm wrong. I don't want to come across as jealous over what they have, my current Skyline is an R34GTT, so not the same league, but they are coming off as woefully ill informed at the moment and I think there is a can of worms there. Can always be fixed. My other massive concern, if I heard it right, was they said they are using 94 octane fuel. These engines are made for 99 octane. I remember years ago on the skyline club forums an American guy who was over in Germany (dont think it was here in UK). He blew up 3 engines and was having a rant about how 'crap RB's are'. Turned out he was using some super low octane American crap fuel off the air base he was on. Rather expensive mistake.

Pete, I have THE color for your GTR wheels! It's from Prismatic and it's called "Monaco Copper." I searched endlessly with my local powder coating shop to find this color; I was in a similar situation with a "Nightfall Grey Metallic" SS that usually gets black wheels amongst the community of owners. When I decided on a gold-ish/bronze color I faced a dilemma that I could see you facing as well. I wanted some contrast, but without being too bright like a "Spanish Gold," or too dark like a traditional bronze. "Monaco Copper" was the exact perfect balance IMO. Best of luck with this build, we're all rooting for you guys to bring our 90's dreams alive!
