Sooooo quick over our private test course ;) it's an awesome car Will, Michael is extremely happy. Was funny coming home after the mountains watching the speedo sitting on 0kmp/h :laughing-smiley-014: gets to 180, then back around to zero rather quick

awesome! :) those tyres made huge difference to the car now..

glad he put it to good use and blow the cobwebs out of engine :)

0 to the other side of 0 is lotsa fun :) the speedo is funny too.. it jumps around every now and then I think :)

0 to 180 to 0 is nothing.. 0 to the other side of 0 is more fun :)

we could only 0 to 0 at 7000rpm in 5th gear then ran outta road :) Need to find a better/longer road to 0 to 0 off the limiter ;) Those tires are monsters, so much entry speed and even more exit speed! Just hugs in and bites like a mofo and leaps forward.

Flames FTW

I was seriously thinking the car had gone slower as it doesn't spin or flick out the rear as often with those tyres :)

might have to get a set for my other cars too now :)

      Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
