Nissan Skyline R34 Drift Car Build Specs

I brought the car as a bare shell in 2008, first up I had to remove some large steel plates that had been wielded to the floor, then it was stripped back to bare metal, all the under seal removed and seems dug out. All of the factory interior braces and rear parcel tray were also cut out in preparation for the build.
