With regard to needing axle spacers, you will know that once it is all put together. Ride height, camber, engine height, left-right orientation of the engine all play a role. If you get at least the minimum amount of play(I forget what DSS recommended) in each axle you are good. I have other...

Jim, That adapter plate has to be dead on. The clutch needs to be perfectly centered to the pilot bearing. There is one thing I might have done differently to help line up the transaxle on install. This was a tip after the fact by an old school transmission guy. I would make some guiding...

Those holes need to line up perfectly. Call RCR, my guess is you have the wrong adapter plate.

Ken, Wow, a mega update! So many well thought out modifications. Beautiful work.

These pics are from Dan Carter’s build thread…

Have you connected with Ryan? He has a brand new kit he was looking to sell a number of months ago.

Jim, I haven’t built a GT-R. My sense is that rear section is fabricated independently of the frame and the holes don’t line up perfectly and the rear structure needs some persuasion to install. Very similar to the roll hoop on the SLC. Looking at the pics you can unwind the A-arm screw and it...

Welcome Alberto. Plenty of great build threads on this forum. Happy to answer any questions you have.

LOL, all great comments. Thanks Coleman. First off, this forum is so great in many ways. It’s unique because of the candid and knowledgeable feedback. We all use our real names and many provide input to help others along. This is my first build and without this forum and the member feedback it...

This post covers the PKE and Keyless Entry Setup… Battery management seems to be an issue when using either the Infinitybox System or a Power Distribution Module Setup. Keeping either system powered on when the car is sitting will drain the battery in a couple days if not sooner. Here is a...

Glad it will help. By the way. If you are machining up solid spacers I would wait till you align the suspension and mount the body. You may need to move the suspension points slightly forward or aft to get the wheels to align/center in the body,

This was my approach. Used some Urethane muffler grommets… Fabricated mounting plates to provide some room for the grommets.. Removed the flat mounting plates that came on the radiator and welded the new ones on… finished result…

Nick, Love those Podium seats. Nice choice! I came up with a simple way to hold the washers in place when assembling the suspension. Also, I used different thickness washers to keep them as square as possible when tight them. See post #352 in my build thread…...

This post covers running the fuel lines and connecting the fuel pressure sensor and control module. The stock LT4 engine has direct fuel injection and a mechanical high pressure fuel pump located on the engine and driven by the camshaft. A tank mounted low pressure PWM controlled fuel pump...

I wonder if they would work in a Superlite GT-R, that would look great.

Time to mount the shifter. My kit included the upgraded Billet Shifter for the Graziano transaxle. In 2018 when I ordered my kit. If you purchased the Graziano completion kit you received the Billet Shifter for no additional cost. It’s a beautifully crafted shifter. Here is a video on the...

Ian, it’s all part of the fun. I guess we all pick and choose where we want to invest our time and create. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!
