Dear P1,

Please tell your members to refrain from trying to race a POS silver R32 GTSt when they are in the white GT3. :rolleyes:

If we had got door to door i was going to say "James wont be happy for you to lose to the Silver Bullet " :P LOL, though i think i may have been kidding myself that i could have perhaps been quicker. If only i wasnt such a candy ass and given it a go :)

Haha - when was this?

I often regale (just for you Snowy) Members with tales of our adventures in the Bullet. It has become something of legend! Now officially the 3rd loudest car ever.

I wouldn't have been surprised if the driver folded under pressure when shown the power of the RB20.

Which reminds me - Snows: the GT3 is getting the 'sports mode' exhaust valve fixed tomorrow. It might need a quick run down to Anglesea to check if its working properly.

Will keep you informed.

BTW TB - you would LOVE the Koenigsegg. It's got the most stupid 'pre-flight' setup ever, smells like avgas but holy crap is it loud!

We can't drive it on the road though, so Richard and I had to pretend in the showroom. Brrrm brrrmmmmm...

It was this afternoon in Southbank, he was darting around behind me taking to the tram tracks like he was going to blast past me. :) I outfoxed him with the lights as i gated it through the yellow...as soon as i saw he didnt follow i cursed myself for not sticking with him :)

And i really hope the CCR is "take me in the kitchen and suck my dick" special :P My hopes are oh so high for it

Hehe - I shall have a word with Rob in the morning :)

I spoke to him this afternoon to arrange collection, and he was saying he had a hard time getting time in the car - as I dropped it off on Friday to his wife and she loved it and didn't want to give it back!

God, if you read this - we need more like her please.

Aaaah, didn't know you guys had acquired it... makes my comments on AE a little outdated. :)

So is that the token CCR in the country? The one that the Sydney fella wanted huge money for....or has another come in the past 5 months or so?

I wonder if the GT3 driver saw the "P1, cant join em, then beat em" sticker in the window...hence the tail gating. Or maybe it was the token drive he got all weekend :)

..i will add. That white GT3 is a gorgeous car. Im not sure whether i would take it or the silver and orange 997 GT3RS i see around the traps on my runs ???? Hmmm :)

Yep - it's the black CCR.

Yep - it's in our new Sydney showroom.

Yep - Richard has the keys.

And have I mentioned that it's loud?

As far as us acquiring it... well, I wouldn't go editing posts just yet Ash.

I don't know who the current owner is, but I know who it isn't. And it's still for sale for $800+

Pix below...

TB : Haha - I forgot about those stickers! Does the Bullet still have the Juz-spec sticker upgrades on it?

The white GT3 does look awesome. It's the new black you know...

BTW, I have a black RS in the shop at the moment (display only) - why don't you pop in tomorrow and say hi?

Juz spec came off last weekend. :) So did some of the paint :)

Getting a few quotes this week for a re-spray. Want it to look mint for F1 and its new life as a street car :P

...i will have a sleepless night thinking about the CCR. Looking at the colour and roofless stance. I think you will need an Adam West mask when driving :)

Senf*ckingsational. I don't understand why the few supercars which are actually registrable on Aussie roads just don't get any sales! There's so many $600-800k cars on the road nowadays, why at least a few haven't stumped up for something truly unique like a Kegg or Zonda is beyond me.

Well, when I spent time researching it last year it seemed likely that it would never see light of day.

Someone posted this pic of it out on some neighbourhood street last year.

    • Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...
    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
