A couple of weeks back we did a post about the completion of the wide body GTR build by Bryce Jenkins, at the time he was waiting on Brandon to arrive from Woyshnis media, If you haven’t heard of Woyshnis Media then you must of been either off social media or living under a rock, as his pictures surface on most media platforms across various pages, he’s beginning to make a bit of a name for himself and looking at what he produces, you can see why.

Brandon and Bryce are good friends, so they know what to expect from each other’s work, there is no doubt that Brandon put Bryce’s 350Z build on the global scene, but there is also no doubt that Bryce built what has to be the best looking Rocket Bunny Nissan 350Z to date, let’s face it there are quite a few around the world, but that’s not just our opinion, many people feel the same, Bryce built a monster, there really isn't another like it, so when a decent car builder meets decent photographer only magical tunings happen, we were pretty excited to see the shoot in all its glory, and he didn't disappoint.

The pictures came out just as expected, we just wish there were a thousands more, as we can just look at this GTR for hours, it’s just such a stunning now it’s all come together, white shows off all the stunning details.

I guess all good things must come to an end, but this is just the beginning for Bryce Jenkins and his amazing Nissan GTR. with Bryce hard at work, his GTR has been left in the hands of the guys at Dapper Dips Indian who will be taking care of stripping the old paint, that wasn't really done to the high quality standards Bryce sets himself, so it will be stripped painted and they are working on the livery, but before stage two is started, let’s just drool over phase one … thanks Bryce, and thank you Brando Woyshnis.

With APAC taking delivery of our GTR aero kit, they have wasted zero time in getting the OEM GTR parts stripped, and the car ready for surgery, we are amazed at the pace this conversion is moving at, especially as Derrick has gone about the conversion in exactly the same way we have done all of our GTR builds, by removal of the OEM rear quarter panel and bonding on the new girth in its place, Derrick already has the rear quarters cut and the new wider panel boned in place, along with the front fenders and bumper all fitted up, we have been pleasantly surprised this week with the activity on this build.

One of the many great things about working with Derrick and his team at APAC, is the fact they are a very high quality custom body shop that have already built some pretty epic GTR's, so they are already sitting on various GTR stock, but there are not many companies around the globe sitting on a custom set of 3 piece forged 13x20 wheels with radical negative offsets, but they have a set of RSV-RS1 3 piece forged ready to to be fitted to this conversion, that for us speaks volumes about how this company operate, we can see this is going to be one very special relationship, wait till you see the finish Derrick has planned, a special GTR needs a special colour, and that is exactly what this GTR is going to get... stay tuned peeps.

Bryce has had a very busy couple of months with his build of late, our last blog post about his GTR he had taken delivery of the super sticky Michelin tyres and it was back to being a daily ride, it was great to his Instagram feed fill up with pictures of the car at various locations, its been great following the progression from start to finish and it seems he has no intention of slowing down.

The last couple of weeks has seen him welcome Brandon Woyshnis, the owner of Woyshnis Media for a real slick photoshoot and if the teasers are anything to go by, we are in for a treat as they look spectacular, we cant wait for the full set of pictures to hit our mail along with the video footage, Christmas is definitely coming early this year.

With the photoshoot locked and loaded and Brandon heading home the next stop for Bryce and the GTR was to hit the Hot Imports Nights show, Denver Mart, Denver, Saturday 31st of March and we must say it seems is was a worthy trip as the Ichiban GTR came away with Hottest Wide Body, which we are super excited about especially that we know this is just the beginning for this GTR's journey.
