Surprising our SUBSCRIBER with his DREAM CAR BUILD! (Full Transformation): 2014 Subaru BRZ

  Alex was recently announced as the winner for throtl Dream Build #2! As the winner of #throtldreambuild2, Alex got his car shipped out to San Diego California to be fully modified by the throtl team. When Alex's car arrived, it was a mostly-stock 2014 Subaru BRZ. As soon as the car arrived at the throtl headquarters, the team immediately got to work on some modifications. Alex's car got the works with some new interior, exterior, and performance-based modifications. Interior Modifications For the interior of the BRZ, we installed a custom black suede headliner, throtl shift knob, and a new audio system from OEM Audio+.

Building and Heavily Modifying a 1989 Nissan Skyline R32 GTS-T - Part 4 - A MAJOR step forward!

 

Installing a widebody kit on a car can be a long process that takes multiple steps of fabrication. Since we are installing a Pandem widebody kit on our 1989 Nissan Skyline GTS-T, we had to chop the quarter panels and remove the factory fender liners. After getting the widebody panels mounted on the vehicle, we were able to determine how to make our custom fender liners. 

When installing a widebody kit on a vehicle, we like to make custom fender liners out of metal to seal the wheel wells off and protect them from water, debris, and rust. In today's episode of throtl, Mickey, Rickie, and Quinn show you exactly how they measured, cut, and welded custom fender liners on the R32 GTS-T. Check it out for yourself in the video below!

After getting each quarter panel squared away, we load the GTS-T on the trailer and drop it off at Torrey Pines Collision and Repair for some bodywork and a new coat of paint. Stay tuned for the Next GTS-T video to see the progress on the build.
