Hiya my name is Andrew Williams,

Instagram @the_venom_r34 

R34 super widebody Skyline

I'm 42 years old and I live in Port Talbot, South Wales. I'm unable to work due to ill health. 

At 17 I got my licence and my first car was 1.8 injection mk2 cavalier, at this time I worked in a local sports centre and I met a guy by the name of John Powell who drove an absolutely beautiful mk4 escort van with a full rs body kit and an rs turbo engine, we became good friends and before I knew it I was looking at my first set of alloy wheels. So it was the influence of John and his van that gave me the bug that would cost me thousands over the years. 

I also grew up in an environment where my parents loved their cars, they mainly had little MG sports cars and one car that really sticks in my memory is my father's bright orange cortina 2200e which my father put a bubble kit on, chrome wheels and radial tyres and even today in their late 70's they are still into cars. 

Currently, I own an R34 super widebody Skyline that's known as Venom. I imported the car via a company called @japwestmods 5 years ago and when it arrived in the country it was all black and now it's a millennium jade. The car started off as a black completely stock R34 GTT auto and a company called Final Konnexion bought the vehicle to build it as a demo car for their company and made its debut at Tokyo Auto Salon. They completely changed the look of the car, they replaced the rear quarters and wings with custom carbon fibre overfenders, they created a Frankenstein bumper by blending an east bear and s-tune bumper together to compensate for the width on the body kit that was fitted, slammed it with Tien coil overs and custom made 20inch AME shallen wheels which were originally 9.5j front and 10.5j rear but ended up being 10.5jfront and 11.5j rear. The final touch was wrapping the car gloss white. 

Joy's importing a car, the car didn't come with much paperwork and what I did have was all in Japanese. I've done a lot of research on the car to find out who did what and when however I was unable to find out who completed the engine conversion. I'm assuming that the build had something to do with Brain Crower as every part of the engine internals are BC. 

The result of all the engine work that's been carried out is 726bhp on low boost and over 900bhp on high boost When the car arrived in the UK, I purchased a set of red type R seats, painted the car millennium jade, changed the wheels and fitted a top-secret spoiler. Here is Venoms current

Besides the fact it's an R34 skyline which you don't see many of, all my modifications are custom and are a 'one off'. One thing I know for sure, my car can never be replicated. I'm in the process of further modifying the rear suspension but I'm basically where I want to be with this car, when I met my wife 10 years ago I said my dream would be to own an R34 and my dream came true in 2015. 

Any detailing work I need completing that I can't do myself, Joseph Roberts at JR Detailed, Treorchy, hooks me up. My paintwork is done by Matthew at Paint by Sanders, Neath, South Wales and so far all mechanical work that's been needed has only been service and maintenance so that has been completed by friends and family. Also, a buddy of mine who helped me get venom into the country, getting it's through its first mot and looking after the car whilst it was registered for UK ROADS, Matt Kayo Kervin, he's helped me so much over the years and I will forever be grateful for everything he has done and no doubt will do in the future. 

With regards to the car scene, especially the scene local to me I'm not that happy to be involved with but I really do enjoy attending the major and local shows, for example, the motor madness show in Aberystwyth and Area 51 Car Club Wales which both held monthly meets that I used to look forward to but covid has put a stop to those clubs doing meets, Cruise Culture, Castle Combe, Santa Pod and Silverstone are all places I enjoy attending. I'm more about driving than showing off. I would rather be taking my monster for a spin than park up in a local car park. 

I help run @Area51CarClub alongside my wife. It's a club where I can really be myself, be around people of similar age to myself and most importantly be around like-minded people. I previously attended shows with Superior Rides, they are a great bunch and are so welcoming. I highly recommend them both.
