  1. I cant really decide whats "the best" as every car is good in its designed environment, so here's my top 5; Number one, all time fav; 997 GT3; Quick all the time, perfect throttle response, awesome suspension, so settled regardless of speed. I adore this car and am honestly a little bit sad every time i get out of it. The sound of it on cold start really says "yeah im a porka, but im not here to fu(k around" with nice lumpy cams that resemble a worked GTR rather than a refined german supercar Number two, Lambo Gallardo spyder; It doesnt feel as fast as you'd think after owning a GTR, but its loud, quirky and the top down makes it a pleasure to drive even with the cumbersome gear shift surround Number three, Mercedes Benz CLKAMG Black Edition; The factory issue buyers with a letter saying its a handful and to be careful so you know its good, great gearing, awesome seats, the noise is to die for, not for the feint hearted. This was more of a thrill than a pleasure. Its true, you need to be super careful of the loud pedal Number four, Masarati GranTurismo; A real GT car thats a 2+2 seater, you could sit in this for 1000k's and get out feeling as fresh as when you got in. Nice subtle exhaust note, doesnt stand out like a Ferrari but just as nice on the inside. If you're a millionaire and need a daily, this is it. Number five, Lotus Exige S (supercharged); A mission to get in and out but the pain (literally, your sides hurt) is so worth it. Very responsive, awesome noise, very trackday spec inside yet still has aircon and power windows. If you're looking for corner speed, you found it Other notables include the new R35 GTR, Rolls Royce Phantom etc but as biased as this would sound, nothing has felt as fast/scary/fun as my own R32 even though its a beyotch in traffic with the clutch, very noisy all the time, rock hard suspension, no aircon etc Id love to have a go of a late model GT2 on slicks one day, that would probably be the ultimate/best thing as far as niceness on the inside but with insane corner exit speeds and overall respect for the throttle
  2. More pics of R34 please
  3. Reliability mods should always be allowed IMO aslong as they dont offer a performance benefit. For example, dry sumps should be allowed on all race cars. Take Duncan racing a 20 year old car, back then the designers didnt have such high G force generating tyres to worry about compared to today, so by allowing him or anyone else to dry sump the motor doesnt mean its going to add a stack of KW's, its just going to cost him less motors per season, which means more money for attending interstate rounds (if he was in a national series), or more people could afford to enter those rounds as they didnt have to worry about having 2 motors being built constantly to stay in the race.
  4. Yep, sure is
  5. While you're fiddling with them, put some Mines cam baffles in there.
  6. Not a problem at all
  7. Sorry, date is Friday 21st and Saturday 22nd May
  8. Love the wheel fitment! Also, there doesn't seem to be many black R32's out there. So kudos for having a neat one!
  9. Like I said, out of my hands. I'm a team player, so I won't publicly go into details
  10. If you ask enough people about something you'll always get mixed responses. I'm not trying to be rude, but you'll find that if you use the search button, all this stuff has been covered before. Yes the ACL kit is fine. Are you using a reputable skyline workshop to build this? If so, ask them what they recommend.
  11. Are we going to see a thread for very part you buy? Also, let's assume you're talking about race bearings because you don't specify a part, stacks of people on here use them
  12. Any chance of posting up the letter you sent please?
  13. Why would you do that? That's the problem!
  14. Please stop making threads. I've moved 2 of them already. Check the FI section, one thread is enough
  15. Please check what area you're starting the thread in next time Moved to FI section
  16. Haha something like that haha
  17. Mines have made a bunch of customer cars. They also sold 2 of their own ones. Snowys car is probably just as good, but with a better price tag Maybe a "Racepace Special" could be entered, there's enough Racepace customers out there haha
  18. What turbos did thatchers car have? Another person here who won't be using any company owned by Steve Thatcher again.
  19. $1025 at today's rate. I'm happy with that aslong as it works!
  20. Please note: The cutoff day for paying is Monday, 17th May as the tickets will be picked up and mailed out on Monday around 3pm.

  22. Well, that mag was published in 2002! So why aren't they popular? I really want more info on them before just getting cusco/arc like everybody else
  23. Hey all My GTR is still on stock swaybars which are all fine on the street, but it's time to upgrade. So looking through an old "GTR owners bible" by RevSpeed, I found this; Now to me, this looks like a remote operated swaybar, which I think would be great! Anyone have any experience with these swaybars, or another brand doing a similar thing? Thanks! -Steve
