ah my gtr has been garaged for 5 months.. thats what i get for moving around the other side of the world :(

Hows life over there dude?

Someone should really go and run the motor for a few hours. Yes, my hand is up. - haha kidding :)

.....but i will do it ;)

i guess it just goes to show what it takes to keep the ol GTR on the road :) I know I could have purchased a small south american country for the dough I throw at mine. :)

The constant effort got to me, always breaking a small but significant part etc

f**king thing

Anywho - the pistons and rods are downstairs for mine.....and the turbo is at aarons......mmm, aaron, can you come to syd for a bit kthnx

dude, blowing your motor is not a small part! lol hehe :D

i don't think i've ever really busted anything in the GTR. well i busted the OS tripple plate (too many trackdays/launches/skidpad/etc), i've worn out some tyres, worn out some brakes, done a few CV boots, but other than that i've spent all the dough on mods and maintenance.

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
