Here is some pictures ( taken from pictures because cellphones with cameras did not exist yet )
From an early age my dad Thys de Beer taught me and my brothers a love for the Nissan brand. He worked in the competition section at Nissan for many years preparing the vehicles for Hennie van de Linde , Hannes Grobler and Charles Britz to name a few.

We also had the privilege to work on one of the very first Nissan Skyline GTR's that came into SA from the track of Japan owend by Morne Visser from Race Way International. What amazing memories from an amazing mentor.
Thank you for the pictures , remainders and stories Petro de Beer

Sure that we can get more power out but not to bad for a stock engine with all stock internals.
The plus side : reliability and quite economical also.

All engineering and assembly done in house by Dextera Domini Mechanical Works

Thank you Richy's Service Centre for the fitment of the Dicktator system and tuning of the vehicle.

Branden thank you for fabricating the turbo manifold, exhaust system , boost pipes and intake pipe.

Note the vehicle is set at 0.45bar boost to give the engine some brake-in time.

Slowly but surely a getting closer to that dream. Thank You Jesus.
