I sure hope this hasn't been asked before.

well here's my top 3 or 5

1. Kagotani R34 - the new bodykit is pure sex

2. Mines R34 - this car is just pure legend

3. RE-Amemiya FD - the perfect balance between power and handling

4. Amuse Z33

5. Original Runduce Evo9

yes I know, I've been watching too much Best Motoring

Post photos if you can, the more the better

In no particular order

* Amuse FairladyZ

* Hamann Gallardo Spyder

* West Coast Customs 300C

* Mines' "Ultimate Response" R34 GT-R

And, from completely out of left field, the Lada Riva tuned by Lotus. Its not the most impressive of cars, but as a "demo vehicle" nothing demonstrates your automotive engineering prowess than turning that nugget into a driver's car.

Also, the Prodrive P2 is a nice piece of kit.

You can never watch enough of BM or Hot Versions & Tsuchiya's ego :rofl:.

My Top 3:

Mines R34 GT-R

Prodrive P2 - WRC STi on steroids for the street. Drivetrain & chassis development at its finest.

Top 5.... so many to choose from..

M Speed R34 GTR... awesome competition between it and Kagotani GTR

HKS Drag GTR... who can argue with the full body record holder

High Octane Track GTR... The yellow one

GRACER and of course... the

Mines Ultimate Response GTR

It's so hard just to choose 5 though

Not all demo cars have to be quick.

And the 300C convertible just looks awesome. I could do without most of the stereo gear, but the shape of the 300C without a roof should make Chrysler put the damned thing into production.

Anyone who loves the look of the Bentley Continental GTC (and, who wouldn't?) but can't afford to buy one (and, who can?) would definitely go for a 300C convertible.

too hard to choose, but some tuned exotics would be nice, like the aftermarket german and italian companies. AC shnitzer, Alpina, Henmann, Gemballa of course. that kellman SL55 looks like sex on wheels

better than that though, IMO is this:

If I had to choose my all time fav 3 sports cars, none of them would be a nissan, but maybe 4th or 5th.

Three are limited production cars and two race

1. Ford GT40 ........... Retro or Replica

2. Aston Martin DBS V8

3. Porsche 904S

and for the other 2,

4. Nissan R390

5. Bentley Azure 2000

IMHO

Some might question the Bentley, but for a 2000 vintage car to be considered already as a modern classic and also becoming one of the most desired cars of all time isn't too shabby.

Cheers, D

    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
    • Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car.
