What a massive transformation on the interior of the R32 GT-R. Things are really coming together nicely. Let's finish strong. Follow me on Instagram: @kalvin_malli Business Inquiries: kmallibiz@gmail.com #rebuild #diy #GTR
As for rust prevention, one product I can recommend is Cavity Coater. Its a spray wax that creeps into all little gaps. It comes with a great applicator which is a long flexible hose to snake through the frame rails. Also, "Rust 911" is a concentrated version of Evaporust. Much cheaper.
Progress is amazing, and a reply to the comment you made about thinking the viewers wouldve wanted you to scrap the r32 in the first place, as a viewer, Id rather see a entire rebuild of a car from the ground up rather than see someone blow hella $$$ on more modern car with minimal rust and not have to rebuild it. You’re doing great Kalvin, be proud of yourself!!!
It's incredibly good to see, and by the sounds of things he might be thinking of a new business opportunity. Which would be, absolutely brilliant when you think about it.
Well-said! The average person isn't interested in this type of dedication and content, unfortunately. Kalvin is part of a very small club of people who have extraordinary skillsets.
Steps to success: Step 1: Uninformed Optimism Step 2: Informed Pessimism Step 3: Trench of Despair Step 4: Informed Optimism Step 5: Success Most people quit and start something else between steps 1 and 3 then get stuck in a repeating cycle. Well done on breaking the cycle and achieving something most could never dream of!
Yeah i noticed that to. Dude wasn't feeling it but kept on grinding through it and saw it through. He does look a lot happier now that the hard work is done.
Kalvin my brother. I'm an supporter and huge admirer of your work even before the GTR. I'm here watching you for years. Been here through your struggles your lowest and your highest. I was here when you lost faith and about to give up. I'm 6000 miles away. Atlantic Ocean seperates us but we are closer than ever. Here's to you brother. Have a drink and enjoy every moment. We'll be here for you no matter what. We love you dude.
I know it would be expensive, but I hope you have this insured for several hundred thousand. No one wants to think about that, but at some point you will be driving this. Not assuming you're at all a bad driver, but accidents can happen regardless of your driving and you don't want all of your work to be for nothing. Love the build, don't remember how early I started watching, but definitely before your DIY rotisserie. Keep up the good work.
Hey Kalvin! Been watching since the burgundy 240sx days and have been a hater/fan . Hater because I wished my life was like yours and envious that you took big risks. Eventually being able to afford getting your GTR and happy that you got a dud.I was even negative about this whole GTR rebuild thinking it was impossible. I was probably projecting my own insecurities regarding failure and wanted to see your downfall. I’ve been keeping up with this build and can say that you have changed my mind . You have a determination/ drive that most people don’t have throughout their lifetime. These videos have helped me keep pushing through the ups and downs of life. I have become fan of your work and happy to see you finally smile after this whole ordeal. You have proven many people wrong and turned haters into supporters. After this rebuild I hope you become a GTR rebuild guru and attract more business. You will be able to make alot of money to do rebuilds due to demand! Looking forward to you finishing this build !
Been checking in here and there since the very beginning, to see how perked up and full of life you are now you’re getting close to the end is so good to see. One hell of a journey and I could only imagine how mentally and physically draining it would have been. Props to you man, one hell of a clean car now RUST IS TO A MINIMAL 💯
To see how you continued no matter how hard it got, or steps u took to get here, some forward or backward and still keeping on. Hope you are proud of yourself
been with you and the other guy prizzamike or whatever since the start, its crazy to see what can be achieved by a single man when giving up is not an option in yer book 😎
Amazing work! Youre fortunate to already have proof that there is a matket for thorough rebuilds! I think you will have no problem finding future clients! I love seeing talented people taking on a misdion like this! So few can do it! Ekite class of people!
Holy mackerel Kalvin! I love seeing more progress on this project every video and i can see your energy and enthusiasm for this car increasing each time. I'm so happy for you and am just waiting for the day that you get to drive it! Keep up the great work sir!
I’m so excited to see this car come together. It’s crazy seeing the Z knowing where it started, and even with the s13 how it’s gone back and forth just constantly changing with time. I know you don’t cut corners so when you do something with that car again it’s going to be incredible. I totally get where you’ve been with the car as I’ve been in a lot of the same positions with my 240z and going through a total revival with it. When almost nobody has gone in as far as you have it can feel like you’re all alone trying to find your way out the other side. And it’s definitely hard and your GTR has gone in super deep down the rabbit hole. Massive respect and the work you’ve done speaks volumes about the results you’re after for your cars and customer cars. And a massive inspiration for us out here sailing the same waters in your wake.
Glad to see you are excited again and happy about this car! It was beating you down for a while and now you look to have turned a corner and back in good spirits!
Love it dude, your going far beyond most ever would. Proud of you man and your vibe is back in check your looking happy and healthy, all the praise to you man ❤ looking forward to the next
Looking so good!! Keep it up!! So happy to see your attitude is so much happier too!!! I could only imagine how hard it would be to keep a good attitude and mood, but your process and growth is seriously so amazing and inspiring!
@@KalvinMalliThanks so much. Your dedication is immense. If I had a 10th of that and skill my project wouldve been closer to being done. But life gets in the way as you know. hopefully I'll have some progress this year.
Bro ever since the start car have come miles away from where it started and honestly right now even better then oem hell yea bro i happy for you and cant wait to see this monster driving
Yes we have new paint 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Well done Kalvin it's looking good man and it's looking like a car again keep up the excellent work and videos 👌👌👌👍👍👍 from a friend in the UK 👍
Was wondering are there an anti rust chemical dip process, like those brand new vehicles doing in the manufacturing process to prevent future rust. Respect the time and effort that you put into this R32, been following your channel since you got the R32. Wish you all the best.
To me it’s crazy how you can just completely gut the gtr and start building from the shell. I replaced my clutch booster on my r32 gtr and felt like I was the mechanic of the year.
Great video dude. It’ll be a huge moment once the quarter panels are on there permanently, which by the looks of it maybe next video! Do you plan on keeping the car white. Look forward to the next video.
If I ever have money or make it big somehow, I want him to build all of my cars :)) Noone else does this type of work. I'm surprised big car companies don't hire him to make racecar prototypes..
I really think you should do the engine bay a killer color like that purple engine bay you got going on that other car on the gtr.. I think a white gtr with that Paul walker blue would be dope from the movie with neon lights and powder coated rims that blue...
