hopefully a few guys on this forum can make it out to the track when it gets hear, as we will try to get it out to QR before we start changing it.

Ahhh, you guys built the crazy R32 GTR that recently raced at Tsukuba? Congrats on all the success :blink:

And congrats on the R35. Lots of us are dying to see how they go with mods!

Damn you have lotsa GTRs, how about spreading it around a little mate? :blink:

Nice work Russ, any particular modification plans for the R35 when it arrives?

Nick

r35 will get caged, exhaust , hopefully ecu modifier of some description for boost fuel timing & speed limiter, terratrip, seats, harness

it will be stripped out of alot of interior and not much else at this stage, want to be able to run buller and things like that.

the r34 will be 3ltr, autronic, hollinger, v8 supecar brakes, full ikeya arms, carbon doors and bonnet, caged, single seat, as light as possible for pure time attack events.

nearly all these parts are here just waiting for the bloody car!!

yeah too many gtr's! (mind you they are mark's as well!!)

my wife is really getting the shits and had enough!

but i just cant help it a lovem!! and just amazed at the new car that nissan have delivered!

Before the R33 goes i so would love to see some footage of it being driven in anger :blink:

hey roy , it,s coming mate!

we stuck into it over christmas , all new fuel system , pulled the engine back out and dry sumped it, engine should go back in.

i would say it will be on the dyno in two or three weeks, want to have it finished before starting anything else,

want to do a few events in it before selling it! probably do gatton street sprints up here in march.

so i will have vids of it and pics of car sometime soon.

what would be the best optin shan?

i was going to rally rego it

well if you're gonna go balls out and race mod it then you'd probably be better off with a race import. it'll also see the car in your hands faster.

if its gonna be sedate mods then putting it on the road might be more fun/profitable when you want to sell it down the track. that said, it'll be at least 6 to 8 months before anyone can comply em.

i'd go the race import, easier, quicker and cheaper.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
