Would you take Garage Saurus GT-R over a Z tune R34, F40?

Depends on the application...

I believe the Garage Saurus R32 GTR is purely a drag car setup.

Nismo Z-Tune is all-rounder sports / performance circuit car.

Ferrari F40 is a legendary 80's - 90's Super Car.

Thanks for your answer, I would still go for Garage Saurus GT-R, I have seen a white F40 on Speedhunters which does look hot. http://www.speedhunt...40-in-high-res/

:)

That F40 is so nice.

Those brake calipers!

Dspeeds look great with the Projector headlights. Due to the lines in the lense make them look OEM'ish.

Good work for blackening the surrounds.

N1's a different matter. I think the tinted ones look better due to the black in the headlights.

I recall $400ish for Dspeeds from RHD deliverd and about $240 for the tinted from Justjap

f40, then sell to buy z tune, personally, z tune is one of my all time dream cars.

Theres only 1 car I would take over it.

see cars that make you thread in wasteland.

They're just under $450 delivered from RHD at the moment.

I remember with my Kandy Red 32 I paid somewhere between $6-$700 almost 10 years ago.

I guess that's part of the reason they are still quite a rare sight on the roads.

I would prefer smoked D-speeds with the N1 lights because IMO the eBay/Just Jap ones don't look quite right due to not having any lines in the lenses.

I will be giving the bulbs a dusting of silver spray paint so get rid of the orange.

Just get T5 clear and clear globes. Do they sell smoked Dspeed ?, I couldn't find any :(

The one issue I found with Dspeeds is the black lug at the back, always seems one of them breaks off from new even.

Must admit also Justjap (JJR) ones are more solid.

I have a new set of clear Dspeeds but they didn't suit the new N1 headlights :( . (if any one is after a set $440)

    • Hard to say, just pop the rocker covers off and have a look if you think it's cammed. You probably need to replace the valve cover gasket/half moons anyways.
    • From my youth: GTi-R clutch change is a massive pain. The gearboxes are fragile? But the car is super cool and I want one 😢 
    • Remember this is 1988 tech.
    • Driveline vibration is resolved. I ended up loosening all my engine mount and trans mount bolts, giving it a good shake then retightening everything and it's gone... Let's just say I was surprised that fixed it.  I've been happily driving it around again but unfortunately put zero time into my direct port/constant pressure WMI setup. I'm on vacation next week, so I'll try and finalize it then.  On a different note, I spent all week fuel/ignition mapping 2x 216L V16 engines. Turbo's were burning glycol and we swapped them out for larger units. We also had planned emissions testing on site, so I figured I'd be there the same week to use their instrumentation and massage any emissions issues out if needed. This was a first for me. Fuel management is similar in certain ways to automotive (i.e air density as load variable) but very different in others. It's all PLC based and AFR's are controlled by air and not fuel. They use a control valve between the turbo and air manifold to control pressure which in turn controls AFR's. Due to this, target AFR tables supplied by the OEM are in pressures and not mass which really through me off. They use air pressure vs fuel pressure tables. I also relied on an O2 concentration sensor the emissions team had in the exhaust. Ignition timing was also all over the place and we were losing a fair bit of power. They're now happily sitting at 16-40BTDC depending on load. We were making about 1600kw at 900rpm at 90% load. Engines were running a lot smoother as well.    
    • heh, aint no R32 ever meeting modern targa cage rules unless the driver is veeeery short OP, good luck with the sale, since its already in the land of freedom I'm sure you will find a good buyer.
