R.I.P.S Random acts of fabrication - GT-R Register - Official Nissan Skyline and GTR Owners Club forum

R.I.P.S NZ · 4th September 2008, 09:50 PM

We've been very busy over the last couple of weeks and I thought you guys might be interested to see some of the things we have made here.

700hp 50 liter self contained fuel system, foam filled with level guage and safety cover:

Fuel system in loving memory of Jan Erik for his R33 GTR:

R33 catch tank/washer bottle combo:

R34 catch tank only:

R33 RB25det Plenim kit with billet 80mm throttle body:

As you can see, there are no set designs, nothing is mass produced, its all custom/bespoke and each part is hand made for each individual customer.

Works of art

Thats my Mazda fuel cell at the top, looks awesome Rob, can't wait to get it over here and start plumbing it all in. As usual very very impressed at the quality and care taken. Top man!

Makes me want to cry...

MIKEGTR · 5th September 2008, 08:19 AM

Works of art, theres not many tuners (if any) in this country that self produce custom work to that standard. Absolute quality and if i am correct 795nzd works out at roughly 300 quid, not exactly extortionate for workmanship of that quality. How much is the one for the R33

Would you mind telling me how much its cost, as i am interested in that myself.

freakazoid3 · 5th September 2008, 11:07 AM

That's some engineering passion for you...

Love you're work Rob

DaleHarrison · 5th September 2008, 11:24 AM

Stunning work Rob. Quite a talent you have there

I still want that R34GTR catch tank, just not yet as I can't afford the pennies just yet... Will come to you when the time is right.

Thanks, the R33 combo washer bottle/catch tank is usually $795 + shipping.
We don't have many 'set designs' so our prices vary on each job depending on the final product, we are happy to customise a product with engraving, polishing, paint, anodising etc and the customer can chose exactly what they want and we'll make it just like that.

I'll get some pictures of Jan Erik's fuel system in the car shortly, I'm very happy with the way its turned out.

Rob
