Hi everyone, Wondering if anyone is interested but Operation K is underway. Our project starts off with a coupe shell that i salvaged from the crusher which cost me $350 a tonne. It spent the last 3 months having all the rust cut out of it which includes lower rear quarters front and back, rear beaver panel, lower door skins, lower guard skins, roof gutters in and out and steel GT-R guards. The photos show some of the steel work that we've completed.

I've decided to install an RB25det with matching gearbox, and r200 diff centre with cv rather than the uni's. R32 rotors with the quad spots upfront and California vented rears and calipers up back, all sitting on z31, 5 stud hubs.

Most of the fabrication is completed and i will post more shots if anyone is interested...

dash pics......repainting the guage needles made all the difference

Mould is completed and we're casting our first surround.......

fantastic job! i have been holding out for somebody to do this for such a long long time!

I am away for all of Feb, but if you make a run, then definately put me down for a set!

i'll take a set.

Kid K, maybe you should get some sort of list going of everyone who is interested in parts, it could help you fund your K project I would buy your reproduction parts if you had some to sell...

Guys I'm happy to take orders of the parts I'm making, Just let me get them 100%. I'm making 6 sets of taillights at the moment and I will take them to get chromed all at once. Once I'm happy with the quality I will let everyone know.....Enough to go round.

Gtr grilles are next on my to do list, then bonnets, would people be happy with glass bonnets or would you be intrested in carbon fibre..

Just a picture of the grille that turned up last week, excuse the front bar I was too lazy to bolt the reco one together.

Would anyone be intrested if I make the front GTR badges or the interior

240k gt badges or the interior 2000 gt badges, I haven't got a rear GTR badge yet.......

SORRY....:stupid:

You need to work out a cost for your parts,

also, are you looking at doing the 'over fenders' (flares) ?

I know for me,

flares,

front spoiler,

grill

maybe badges for the front & rear (are you making these types, as in the picture), inside doors

maybe rear bobtail

maybe a bonnet

but it all depends on the cost.

Hey Kid-K,

Add me to the list for the tail light rings as well please.

Also I'd be interested in the GTR Grill, and if you were making them,

flares, rear bobtail spoiler and possibly the badges depending on how they

look. carbon fibre may be the way to go with the bonnets, but it probably depends on cost.

thanks for putting in the hard work and effort in replicating these rare parts!!

thanks to you, there may be a dozen GTR replicas on the road soon!!!

hey guys, check out the video of my dads "K" on youtube

Also, right now i am the luckiest kid in the world because, i have a 240K too!!!

I would be keen on a full set too. Possibly more pending prices. I also have a 240K_GT Door badge (new) which you could make a mould from if required.

PS: the Coupe's coming along very well. Nice sound too. Is that a 2.5 inch or 3 inch pipe?

Cheers, Bruce.
