The former worker there Beau now does his own thing. Look up Bo's Garage on IG.

What happened to them? They stopped social media posts, their site went down, and I've basically heard/seen nothing from them since

I think Kuino was going it on the side and got to busy. Then he either got help and it fizzled out or he just gave up all control and the other guy just stopped running the business.

Had some issues with the head being over bored so it’s at a specialist to see if they can weld the pinhole up. Working on getting a cage in the car and hopefully I can come up on some DSS axles sooner than later.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who would like to see a build thread on this car.

Update. New head is back from machining and is installed. Hopefully the car will be up and running in a few days!

The old head could not be saved so I got another one and had it machined and had all the old parts installed.

So I feel where a lot of you guys are coming from. The flip side is that I've been purchasing parts for the last few years haha!
True that! Yea im in a weird spot with the GTR, there is a but of hesitance on the part of Mines to give up the info on the car. As far as we can tell the car was built (Swapped, all parts installed and tuned) by them, the problem is the build sheet was completely packed, so much so that things were probably left off.


BCNR33 RB26DETT N1 Engine
Mine's VX-Rom (tuned by Mine's)
Mine's Camshafts
Mine's VX Intake Kit
Mine's Turbo Outlets Pro
Mine's Front Pipe Pro
HKS GT-SS Turbo Kit
HKS EVC-5
Racing Muffler (doesn't say the brand)
Tomei Head Gasket
Tomei 600cc Injectors
Airflow Sensor Upgrade (doesn't say which ones)
Coilover Suspension (doesn't list brand)
Upgraded Brakes
Upgraded Clutch (Nismo Coppermix)
Upgraded LSD
18'' TE37s
Nismo Brake Hose

"The rest of it is hard to make out" according to Kunio. Some stuff has been figured out AP Racing brakes front and rear, Twin disk, D-Jetro but I want to know what Upgraded LSD, Coilovers, Mines Cams, mean, like the actual specifics of every part. Hence why its going to Power Craft.

Man, this car is going to pull like a freight train! That's quite the impressive parts list! The responsiveness is going to really get you into trouble
