It is a very nice GTR indeed

And yeah I'm not about to drop money on crank triggering. If something happens I'll buy a brand new CAS off Kudos which will be fine for the power I'm running. And I am getting pretty over dealing with ATI trying to get answers. I'll give them till the weekend then I think I'll just go with a Ross

I want to get my front windows tinted somewhere, I usually take my car to Nomak for any window/widscreen related stuff but they look hell busy at the moment

Anyone reccomend a good spot to get windows tinted?

Wow, that is a stunning GTR. Not the one i've seen though, i'm quite sure he has personalised plates though something like Dan i can't remember exactly and chrome rims.

Cal- i was going to suggest Nomak, we use them for work reliable and pretty quick

Ahhhh! no haha

I knew someone (vaguely) with a white 34 gtt. Was a clean car, no diffuser but, unless it has one now with the new owner.

Had an annoying thought today, that my car would look cool without a wing and a carbon fibre BOOT. I'm drawing the line, no more carbon fibre! lol

maybe some canards and a proper carbon spoiler blade first but......

haha trust me man it turned my head real quick. I have the worst memory, i've quite sure it had a CF diffuser and it definitely had a wing and chrome rims. It looked good but! haha.

Aren't CF hoods defectable? Funny story by the way Cal my girlfriend works with your girlfriend. They were talking about Skylines aparently... HAHA

I already know these things

haha

I meant to say carbon fibre boot to BTW...... whoops

So yes I might edit my post so it makes proper sense.

And yes it probably will be defectable, another good reason not to do it

You mean you already know about ours missus' or the R34?

True, there's a boot you can get for V35's called strafespeed looks f*cking awesome but the business that runs it does real dodgy work and a lot of people have been ripped off so not going to bother. Almost positive the hood is defectable.

What a waste

[The Mafia]

I wouldn't mind building a track car

What do you guys think of this?

[Nur33]

Yeah looks in pretty good condition, GTR's are no good as track cars any more the Evo's are taking over. Most people that i've seen build big track GTR's have sold them after a few track days and bought an Evo

[dysonest]

EVO ftw but... closest "track" for that kinda shit is townsville no ??

[Nur33]

Lil Bro just ran a 9.6sec up in Townsville this arvo, pretty good considering the track is as smooth as conner's road in paget lol. The car is running really well getting consistent 9.6 - 9.7 sec pass even on the low power tune. Looking forward to seeing what it does at willowbank should get a low 9 for sure and its very possible to get the 8sec pass on more HP. Wish i was up there (f**k you work at least the money is good).

[The Mafia]

Nice work to your brother Ben.

I'm definitely considering an Evo, but for some stupid reason I have always wanted a 400awkw GTR. And something that is easy to get parts for.

EVO will be an expensive buy, and is very close to the price of an R34 GTR. I won't be tracking it that much at all, and I'm not interested in racing and beating anyone, just want to go fast lol.

So confused

[KING87]

400kw GTR and you want to do the occasional track day. Surely you don't expect it to be a good daily aswell.

[dysonest]

yeah ben i herd he was doin 9's... good shit

and what ever way u go 400kw in any car is gonna be good

[The Mafia]

Will be a sweet daily kingy

Rb26/30 at 9.5:1 compression, 2530s, 260 duration cams, decent quiet exhaust, e85 or Jew brew, and a vipec or link with a flex sensor so I can tune it to run on anything I decide to pour into the tank would be a torque monster so i dont need boost when driving like a grandma (according to my mates that's often). that's the good thing about knowing how to tune well, I can do a lot of the time consuming and complicated bits myself.

Then a couple of times per year I'll drive to Brisbane for something and stop by the track and go fast. As I said, I'm not very interested in beating anyone, I just want to go fast around a track to get it out of my system

Want to loan me that r34 once or twice a year?

[The Mafia]

I've found a couple of rb26 fitted 180s around too. $12k.

I've got the 2530s, wonder if 350-400rwkw is too much for a drift track lol

[89CAL]

Went crazy today and put ATF in my gearbox. VE's do it so I thought I'd give it a crack

suprised with it so far to be honest, is handling it quite well

Going to make the switch from Motul 8100 X-cess engine oil to something else though, its just to damn hard to get in this town anymore

Thinking I might go Mobil 1 but will see after a bit more research

[dysonest]

nulon isnt too bad ay callan for a cheaper option. then again depends on driving style/how often u service ect...
