Oh my god, that's f**kin TUFF! :) excellent driving... your downshifts are awesome to watch... what sort of gearset does the car have?

it's a ppg gearbox, and mark's bloody good at the changes, really shits me :ermm:

here is a vid of the pre race day when we were having bad handling issues, watch the end mark has a huge moment at about 180kays! hehe

As others have said, great effort. In my eyes the most impressive thing is the amount of work/time/effort you have put into the car getting it to where it is...Great to see some support by the likes of Hi-Octane etc...but the work you peboth personally put into the car!..not simply buying an uber built car. So envious that you guys have got to go through the build process yourselves. ;)

Top work and cant wait to see what happens to the other GTRs in the stable.

PS...if you ever tire of track stuff i will swap you my POS GTSt which is perfect for throwing sideways into tyre barriers for any of the GTRs :)

      Ha ha ha, that's fair mate! We have the crackhead dogs now. Mainly because the missus wants the crazy dogs while she still has the energy and capacity to be able to keep up with them! Ha ha our current two are both Working GSD, there brothers and sisters (from the same litters) are in Police, Corrective Services, and I believe one did end up in defence force too. They're wild and fun, yet right now, both curled up asleep on the lounge room floor while we watch some TV. Mal is very likely the next dog (unless I get my couch potato guardian dog 😛 )   What are your Kitties names? Are you planning some house work, like those high kitty shelves, built in scratching post, and some cat passages from one room to another room?

      Maine Coone, did look at but to big and fluffy As for performance dogs, we had Mals at work, performance dogs are fun to watch, but, way to much work for this old rooster

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      By sonicii · Posted

      Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.

      You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛

      Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
