Sorry if its a repost and even though its quite a short thread the quality of workmanship here is amazing!! The welds on that cage are awesome, makes mine look like birdshit! Haha
Anyway enjoy and sorry again if anyone has seen this before as its a couple of years old now

They seem to enjoy their GTR's at AMS.
They do an Alpha 12 package, up to 1500bhp.
Is an awesome build that though, pretty daunting stripping a new GTR then rebuilding it again, cage is a work of art I think.

Car was finished nearly a year ago so may have a look on the web see if there are any painted/wrapped pics?
