LOL...NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If that is your car in your post then keep the rotor in it. (oh and looks like a great FC by the way :) )

RBs are big , heavy and lazy things, which work well in a Skyline...but. Hell i would say throw a V8 in the FC before an RB :)

^^^ Agreed

Haha thanks mate it is mine :) I guess I'm just a sucker for the RB sound!! :)

a few more engine rebuilds should do the trick....

I am holding out for R35 GTR V spec, just need sponsor or something or another minor miracle.

What about this car for track weapon? How about a 4wd carbon body, custom V8 with 2 x Hayabusa heads, dry sump, 420hp and only 500kg, awesome aero and very low height and centre fo gravity. Illegal for Superlap though.

Yep 2rismo thinking about the straight line thing. Going out this Wednesday with the zed gang, around 10 or more going I believe, but I am not taking the Slot Car as it is all pulled apart modifying stuff. Will go back when I get my PPG dog box.

Exactly my point, we should send the drag racing talk back to the drag section with all the un-coordinated people who can only do one thing at a time. Accelerate, brake, turn right.

GTR Jason anyone can go in a straight line, not hard? Circuit is much more of a challenge and fun.

    • Welllll..... some of the Preludes, particularly this one Sort of kinda mimicked the long-nose-short-deck-Mustang/Skyline profile anyway. That one ^ kinda like R34. The other more curvy Prelude kinda like the R33. Integras had a little of that going on also. So, it's not totally surprising to me that their designers have gravitated to a similar profile to more "modern" (ha! 20 year old!!) Nissan coupes. Of course, they could have just stolen the V/Z platform anyway, per your suggestion. I am, otherwise, similarly unimpressed. Those venty things at the bottom of the front guard/door reek of Tiburon, which is not a place any designer would want to be.
    • I’m an automotive photographer based in Sydney, but just dropping this here in case anyone else from NSW is looking. I’ve been photographing cars for more than 10 years, working with private owners, collectors, dealerships, and brands. You can check out my work here: carphotographers.com.au Would definitely recommend finding someone local in Melbourne who understands how to shoot Skylines properly — the angles and light really make a difference. If you ever drive up this way, happy to shoot it for you.
    • Looks like the brief relationship between Honda and Nissan resulted in Honda stealing the Z profile designs.  I'm not a fan at all. 👎🏻   https://www.autoblog.com/news/seeing-the-new-honda-prelude-up-close-reveals-its-retro-magic

    • Yeah, it was a pretty deep dig.
