  1. Unfortunate about the break in. It's sad people feel the need to take what isnt theirs. On the flipside I witnessed this car get pieced together while planning my build. A thorough undertaking you can feel confident was done correctly. Congrats!
  2. It's still a work in progress, but should have it ready for some anger driving in the coming month or so.

  4. Upon further inspection, Big O from Melthams decided the original application wasnt any good and decided to reapply the colour as intended. The results are outstanding!
  5. '93 GTR Freshen up Hey guys, Long time lurker. I'll try condensing the last 18 months into a relatively short post :-) A friend of mine purchased this car from the east several years ago, I remember seeing it in the flesh and the colour just popped. When it came up for sale, I jumped on it. The lads at Galvsport were commissioned to the freshen which ended up being a ground up resto of sorts. Premise was for a 1000hp street car with manners. Engineered and insurable. Carry out the school drop off and have a crack at some motorsport. Stripped the shell and off for a freshen up of the BMW Boston Green. .
  6. Spotted this getting dropped off at Galvsport, good luck with the resto1!
  7. Thanks for the replies and insight guys, appreciate it.
  8. Hi guys, I'm currently in the build with a R32 GTR. I'm looking to maximize tyre width within the factory guards. I'm aware 18x10.5+22 is near on optimum. Has anyone had any success with an 18x11 square setup? +30 offset is available and should fit reasonably flush, however I'm unsure how much inner guard/suspension clearance is available. Anyone able to provide some feedback on this? thanks in advance. Jme
  9. Hi guys, I've just bought a 32 GTR and looking to get as much rubber as I can under the guards. I'm aware 18x10 +20 is near on optimum. Toying with the idea of going 18x10.5 +25. Anyone had any experience with that size? Not adverse to rolling the guards, more concerned about strut clearance and front turning clearance. Any feedback appreciated.
  10. Porsche developed the DSG system for their race program in the 70's. Its old technology which was hounded by weight and size. VW/Audi honed that technology in the late 90's and made it production viable not long after the turn of the century. Nissan seem to be the first off the block to have a full running production version in a vehicle running decent torque through it. Interesting to see what transpires with its reliability once more power gets pushed through. Porsche have a dsg option on the 997 replacement. LOL @ manual gearbox being boring to drive. Thats as naive as it gets, id suggest more time learning to drive on the limit before comments are made on a true driving experience. Electronic talent is the way of the future, but pure driver involvement is much more satisfying.
