lol, that was the plan.

but the Z is sooooooooooo nice to drive.

bah, its a tough decision.

its so smooth, the shift is nice and quick, the brakes are incredible, the steering response is something else entirely...

and its a new car, 5 years of warranty, its only done 7,000 kays, doesnt have the bumps, squeaks and rattles and inevitable engine rebuild coming up that a nearly 20 year old GTR would have...

Yes I can't wait....

Paul.. have you seen Troy's vids? Stock rb20det td06-20g pushing 260rwkw.

PI is a damn quick track compared to our little Mallala; majority 4th 5th gear 180km/h corners, 240km/h down the straights. :huh:

The car was a little nervous as you can see. Suspected blow shock. He recent sent it in to a wall of tyres as it spun on him at 200km/h when jumping on the brakes. I'm guessing he'll get its problems sorted. :S

    • They're all horrible. X-Trails have had a nasty sounding 4cyl since forever, no matter what engine family it came from. The CVTs only made that worse. Then the whole Renault thing only made every Nissan that was contaminated by them even worse again. The only fun I've had in a X-Trail was having it blown sideways across a frozen Minnesota highway at 90 mph trying to make it to the airport to get out of the frozen hellhole of Hoth. Nearly died. Was great fun.
    • Alrighty, I'll have to grab a couple pics and type out something soon in another post. I haven't driven a modern X no, this would be the first one really. Yeah the rental boxes are always cheap as chips right? So I'd doubt that anyone was handing out GTs to go and abuse. But I s'pose I could be wrong for sure. New cars these days though? Pretty unimpressed with what I see now; 20 years and all that, like you said. It just kind of worked out to have these two cars now. I'm pretty pleased with that, don't need much else. I'm sure you lads are right about the temps and for sure, you wouldn't have much time to drive 'em down there if you all were like me. I do hate sweating all over the seats though😆
    • Let large companies that are making money off selling kits do the preliminary engineering for you. If they all do -10, then that is all you'll ever need. 
    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
