Well.....Hybrid Motorsports' Nissan Skyline has been sitting around the shop for quite a while, and we've finally gotten around to getting some work done on it. While we also will be looking at addressing the exterior, we've decided to give the engine bay some much needed love.

Because the only proper way to re-do an engine bay, everything has been removed - which included engine, tranny, wires, sensors, etc., blah, blah, blah.... As with most of our other projects, one thing leads to another and before you know it we have a full-blown project on out hands. Gotta love it!!!

Of course the process is very tedious and time-consuming, but it needs to be, to be done right. No shortcuts were taken and after most of the things in the engine bay were removed, it looked like this:








Again, no shortcut was taken in prepping the car for paint. There was endless hours and hours of grinding, sanding, etc. to get it in the best possible condition for a flawless paint job. After the "dirty work" was done, it was time for taping it off for paint (obviously the entire car needed to be taped-off/masked to avoid contaminating the rest of the car with overspray).







At this point, the engine bay is just about to be ready for primer! So on we went to the priming stage. Below, are a few shots of the primed engine bay:



Looks flawless!!!!



In the next segment, we'll move on to paint! Catcha later, and thanks for checking us out!

 

so you guys are just going to paint all over the steering rack, brake booster, and lower hard lines? SWEET!

 

Thats lazy as fuck

 

Its only a GTR. Shinmei might be found at home had committed suicide after he sees this

 

Glad im not the only one that doesnt consider "no shortcut taken" to include leaving the brake booster, clutch master, engine crossmember, etc.

 

poor car

 

good to know what kinda jam up work Hybrid Motorsports does!!

 

Yeah i was going to say, u guys are not true to your word. Did u guys atleast take off the radiator or condensor off the car?
