surely someone has put their GTR on a weigh bridge.

a proper read out.

runnin gcondition, half a tank of gas.

as youd drive it on the road.

I agree with the extra weight.

going from a 225x50x16 to a 245x45x17 will add a bit of weight in tyres alone.

the bigger brakes would also add weight.

I don't think that 20kg is that much of an issue when you consider the benefits of wider track, heaps better brakes etc.

I have. That is why I know what it weighs.

The brake rotors for the Brembos are larger in diameter than the Sumitomos, but thinner. Given a front rotor is only 8kg for a lesser model, I can't see how the would be more than 1kg in it.

With regard to wheels & tyres my 255/40/17's on 9" rims as just over 20kgs. The tyres themselves are heavier than the rims. Again, given the rolling diameter of the set up will be the same I would be gob smacked if there was more than 2kg in it.

The track width on the V spec is no different to the normal Gt-R's.

The Brembos are a poverty pack version & really no superior to the Sumitomo calipers. The only gain is rotor diameter. I don't know why Brembos get exalted like they do, AP make much better calipers.

no its not mate where bouts is the white one?

I just recall a white 32 with 33 engine for sale here in Qld a few months back. Just wondered whether it was the same car you're chasing up.

Either way hope you end up with a top GTR ;)

    • Thanks mate, couldn't find in VIC, ended up ordering one from NSW, getting rwc to get new plates and registration done.
    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home
