KYLE'S MIDNIGHT EUPHORIA | EAT26

Images by: Ben Birch || Video by: Chris Scott || Words by: Chris Fotinos

So I've known Kyle for a while now. When I learned that he wanted to do a photo shoot of his Midnight Purple R33 GTR "EAT26" I jumped at the opportunity to go along with Photographer Ben Birch and Videographer Chris Scott from MileHigh Films.

"The car was immaculate and spotless, it was love at first sight. With the Kakimoto exhaust, the sound was complimented with a set of aftermarket camshafts, in short, at the 9200rpm rev limiter it was orgasmic" Kyle reminiscing of when he first laid eyes on the car in 2006.

Kyle didnt just buy a GTR. He started to build a quality Street driven track car to what it is today. Currently the car has a very tammed 475hp at the wheels. It sports an immaculately built RB26DETT fully built by Daniel from Elite Racing Developments. Specs include ROSS Racing Pistons, SPOOL H Beam Rods, ACL Race Bearings, ERD Performance prepped and Blue Printed Block, JUN Oil Pump, Twin Garrett 2860r-5 Turbos, Nismo Pump and 600cc injectors, Tomei Dump and Kakimoto 3.5" Exhaust, along with ALOT more. All this controlled by a WOLF V550 ECU, tuned by Sean at EFI Performance.

The exterior has been kept clean and simple. Kyle chose a Standard Series 2 Lip in primer black to run upfront, complimenting the GTRs already good looks. The car rides on Tien HA Coilovers set up by Ken at Accurate Suspension and 18 x 10.5 +15 Enkie RPF1's. Needless to say, the car is a very original and tidy example of one of the classic GTRs.

The interior, much reflect the exterior. OEM. Kyles opinion is quite obvious here. Keeping it original. Simple and proper modifications were made here. Such as the Nismo Main Cluster, allowing Kyle to get a higher readout of speed, RPM and Boost. 

All in all, Kyle's GTR is easily one of the cleanest examples of the R33 GTR I've had a pleasure of experiencing. Kyle's words when I asked him, "Where to from here?"

 "It is safe to say that I am content with the car at this stage, however there are plans of another engine on the cards along with a bigger turbo set up complete with E85 as well. But for now, I plan on enjoying the car for what it has, what it is and what it can do without it being at a workshop waiting for more money to be spent on it."

FITTING NISSAN CEFIRO

It would seem the reign of Cefiro's are slowly coming to an end. With most bent, parted or track only items. There's only a hand full of tidy street examples left. 

Seeing as I haven't shot anything in quite some time and watching this car slowly come together, it seemed like a good time to get the camera out again.

Jack and I drove this Cefiro back from Adelaide mid 2012. Was a good starting platform, with all matching interior, panels, Autech kit and pushed by an RB25DET.

 With a good starting point, only minor things were required to bring it up to a nicer street standard. With just coilovers, a couple of arms and a set of wheels.

With so many possible wheel choices on the market, Jack had concave on the brain. Our good friend at www.csrperformanceparts.net organised a set of VCP-S5R. In very fitting 17x10+22 17x9+22.

Running such wheel sizes, 12kg springs up front and 10kg in the rear, were chosen, A further -5 degrees front and -5.5 degrees back were required to squeeze them in the guards.

These photo's does this car no justice, the amount of concave these wheels have mixed up with such a degree camber on a street car, simply looks complete.

 Fortunately, at some point, someone had fitted ER33 GTS-T hubs and brakes all round, which was a bonus!  

 Interior has all your basic needs, Nardi, Gauges and the usual Japanese bits and pieces. 

Special thanks to Carlo from www.csrperformanceparts.net for all the help!

Jack's currently considering letting the Cefiro go, in pursue of another dream. So feel free to swing us an email!

Thanks, Streetkarnage.

SILKY SMOOTH JUST DROPPED

A quick peak of Cobey's V35, that has had a slight transformation.

 

Big thank you to Ty at FORGE-Wheels for all the long hours and hard work!

 With more on the card's, a full photoshoot coming soon!

Thanks, Streetkarnage.

WINTERFEST 2011

Winterfest was a 'Toys-for-Tots' charity event earlier this month in Sanford,FL. Not only did we collect a bunch of toys for kids this christmas, but we brought out lots of sick cars and awesome people from all over the state. It was a good turnout for a good cause. Now for some pics =]...
