Strictly invite only tonight. No name, no entry, even if your with someone whos name is on the list.

Speed cut issue is already resolved from what Ive been told.

And to those who bagged out Tim, he is reading from a teleprompter, so dont blame him for the mistake. And he could afford two if he wanted.

Most certainly a V6.

Massive thanks to Fabcar for the invite tonight.

Huge crowd, with many of the big names in local motorsport, media and motoring all in attendance. One noteable exception was Kim Ledger, and special mention was made for the man who many there are close friends with in this incredibly difficult time. Fabcar announced a two car team... yes thats right, there is 2nd one waiting to go to be driven by local rally legend Tolli Chalis, along with Fabcar being official supplier of cars for Targa West 2008, and an all new website. Good to see them going from strength to strength and with 35 years experience in the import game, it is certainly showing.

Also a massive thanks to Fabcar, in particular Frank, Steve and B0BB0 for allowing me access to the car in the days leading up to tonight - I cannot say how much of an honor it is for me to have been allowed to touch, play and take pics of this thing.

A full story will be in PSC next issue I pray, so it could well be an exclusive for an Aussie publication on Aussie soil.

Heres just a few of the pics from the last couple of days, I had been gagging ever so slightly to put some up but respected the wishes of those who gave me the chance to see the car anyhow.

This was the channel 10 guys who came to film it on monday arvo before yesterdays news story, they were in awe.

Its nearly 2am so this will do for now, more pics soon.

Yeah, great to be at the unveiling, and as TJ has pointed out there is a 2nd car to be driven by Tolli, so this years Targa West will be really exciting to go and watch.

There still running the engine in at the moment, so the car hasn't been driven in anger yet, but by all accounts the gearbox is the ducks nuts :)

I heard that Nissan have refused to turn off the speedlimiter.

As it is based on GPS could be hard to bypass.

Anyone else heard this?

If it is still in operationg in the Aus delivered R35 GT-R, then I get to slap my stupid asian friend in the face :)

He actually agreed to it...

    • I'd be worried about having to parallel park a boat like that. Magnificent car though.
    • This car has run before on this z32 ecu can get the part number for you, I have tried with no AFM it didn’t change anything, I compression tested today 140-150 across all 6 cylinders, also set fuel pressure to 43psi. The only weird thing was cylinder 1 plug was black and fouled other 5 cylinders were just wet with fuel. Spun cas by hand and confirmed injectors are clicking 
    • Since you came here to ask for help, have you thought about answering our questions, that might help us lead you to why it was skipping, or have you given up on getting advice?
    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
