N1GTR

Yay. Trackday, AND the best pizzas ever at Infuze near the diggers club for dinner!!!

Assuming it's the standard motor, and hasn't been replaced with an early model motor in japan that you don't know about

Good work. Do you mind saying what is the 10k brakes and suspension? Buying one with this stuff already done is a huge time and money saver Now please read all the "i just bought a GTR, what should i do" threads for basic ways to prolong healthy engine life and preventative maintenance etc. Here's the very basics; Dont run the stock ceramic turbos at more than 1bar (regardless of what your car has, im typing this for future people who are searching) Filling the oil to the bottom of the hump on the dipstick is smart before any trackdays/thrashing Dont do a high rpm launch (the sort you go "whoooooa" on youtube at) with the steering pointing anywhere but straight If the stock gearbox gets crunchy, fill it with Redline Shockproof (or smurfs blood as everyone calls it) Always warm it up before a flogging (this should be common sense). Go on OIL TEMP not water temp. Enjoy

Fkn legend. Im so glad you stopped working on the house and got on SAU for a while

Agreed, make a full on race one. Please.

Thats a pretty good recommendation for dynamat. Ill look at that when i do the interior Ill try toyota for genuine new black carpet, if thats too much, there's a few places that do moulded carpets and you can choose the colour so thats pretty decent, there's one near my house aswel as a bucketload on ebay haha Ah yeah i know what you mean for the dash, something like a STACK, i wouldnt go that far, something like yours is ideal but the red would go for a super bright white i think (may turn out crap in white, so i guess thats an easy change lol) The WTA cooler i mean is this one; For only 600hp at the engine it doesnt have to be a monster sized one so they're quite compact. Id mount it in the bit where the stock airbox goes, then run only piping behind the radiator to make it easier. Thanks for the idea about moving it all forward, ill suss that out - v mount would be a no go, way too much effort hahaha I know what you mean about police - my GTR looks the same under the bonnet (twin turbo, quite sedate looking) and makes ok power, but its still getting engineered. Seems thats the only way these days! I know you guys in ACT get it pretty bad though

Ok cool, thanks!

Sweet as lol! No way I'll miss it if I get the chance haha

What dramas?

Yeah, google.

Cheers mate Translations needed haha But yeah i guess the same It must be RB20 powered

If that falls through, please PM me. Ill take it

Oh. my. GOD! Anymore details?

+15 is going to look great, go for the 18x10 front and rears

The colour sort of looks like the late model magna colour Do you find its much quiter inside now with all the dynamat? Also how hard was it to change carpet to black? Where's it from? The stock gray is CRAP! Ill have a look on MVP right now for dress up parts, cheers The stock dash is a joke, i dont care about the fuel and temp guages, i just need the speedo and tacho - are they easier to come by by themselves? Im assuming the temp and fuel ones are the hard ones to find Good to see its holding traction ok, i guess with those huge tyres its got no choice haha. Do you still have the traction control butterfly in the intake? I feel the same way with the headlights, the low beams are way better than the high beams, but when i used to drive it every day id go for a nasho/hill run at night and there just wasnt enough light in the distance to see whats coming up and at speed thats no good cause there was a few "wow, that came faster than i expected" moments at macquarie pass as its got a lot of dips and crests Nah not methanol, i want to get rid of all the unrequired pipework and any excess lag. Its not all about power for my one, more throttle response i think is important. Im hesitant to lose the clutch fan as its just so good at drawing in the air, but of course thermo's are the way of the modern cars and as long as they have a high enough CFM rating then its all good. Did your shroud come pre fabbed like that? It looks very nice and neat. Ive got a 3566-82R here, so the thinking is; Turbo to water/air cooler in that area behind the headlight, then pipework between the pulleys and radiator then two 90deg bends into the intake. Radiator and electric water pump for the WTA cooler can go where the stock SMIC goes, that way its got a nice stable intake temp and stealthy Dont sell it, just get an R34 aswel haha

Just to confirm, brake clearance is the same as normal TE37's? I need big clearance but not 19's

Thanks guys

My love for porsche continues. Awesome vid!

Have what - an F40? Nope

Rolled? Bloody hell, what a waste. I mean one thats structurally fine, clean enough inside etc but a blown motor, or a blown gearbox (or just no motor and box altogether)? Motors over here are easy enough to buy, or just build

Looked at jspecs new site last night. Started at about 10pm, didnt finish until about 4am. It works so well, and it has to be the biggest tease available right now.

Chris, how many is "a few"? Surely there cant be a heap of them in Oz?!?! Melbourne seems to have bucketloads of nice cars, maybe its their cheaper housing that helps

And a good thread just got better

Also, this seems appropriate; http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...t&p=1179941

Yeah thats actually not a bad price when you compare it to say a new F430 which will lose value big time, the F40 can only be more valuable IMO over time Nice find
