As requested

Heres a project thread for rexy (registration is rex)

Shes a 1994
Mk2 Uk 3000gt 300hp, 3.0 twin turbo with 4wd and 4ws (wheel steer)

It has cool features way ahead of its time like active aero rear spoiler and front air dam
Along with active suspension where soft or hard can be chosen
Of course none of it works any more although parts are still available from evil empire in the uk

My example has been off the road for 6 years

Front subframe rotton
And no oil pressure and general suspension deterioration
Driver seat bursting out



So the oil pressure was resolved quickly, had no oil in it but no leaks 😂 so topped up 3.5litres

And then got oil preasure back, changed the oil with some millers and a new magnetic sump bung

The front suspension has been ripped off, new old obtained from a early 1992 gto
Ive shot blasted and painted the subframe and arms
Use superline pro bushes very pricey only real option  IMG_20200807_163648.jpg   208.04KB   0 downloads

Then i purchased tein flex z coil overs
Which have the ability to choose hard or soft from the drivers seat with the addon edfc controller
Along with hel brake lines, shot blasted and painted calipers with ebc turbo grove and yellow stuff pads  IMG_20201010_175034.jpg   108.16KB   0 downloads

No oil 😱 at least no damage from that. Definitely following this thread. Always wanted one since playing gran turismo 2 on the PlayStation 2. It was my favourite car

[Liam G]

There wasn't any damage although in time as they are proje to oil pump failure im gonna do acl race bearings and arp bolts and wing the sump with a new oil pump

The plan is 450 to 500hp with arashi 20t turbos and stock internals as they take 600+

I always picked this on Gran Turismo, was the cheapest car that was 4x4 and could be taken up to 1000bhp 😁

Looking forward to further updates Liam
