I was totally put off the Bayside Blue R34s by this. But time heals and I ended up getting one.

It made a big impression on me though and I have shown my teenage sons these pictures. I know how easy it would be for them to "borrow" my car.

Sorry to de-rail the thread. If people don't want to see this, then moderators please remove.

RIP.

Article from the Daily Telegraph attached.

The cars for sale on that forum are unbelievable. and the timeattack part of the forum is a good read, they take it pretty seriously over there!! the money they must put into these cars is nothing short of amazing...

They went all that effort to reduce weight, and then decide to use GT-C's..

Its not like GTCs weigh the earth either. When I picked up the box with one of my 19s in it, it felt like I was picking up not much more than the box

No they dont weigh a ton, but in comparison to say, RE30's, it's a world of difference when you're also talking about unsprung weight.

this is mine, got it few months ago from japan. goin thru some changes. still a little unfinished, few things left to go!

main thing i changed - wheels. new wheels r 20x10.5 -5 rear and 0 front. some ppl like some ppl dont, meh. i like it so fcuck em.

little did i know that the wheels wouldnt clear my 370mm front brakes! that issue will be fixed next few weeks i hope, then i can lower the car a bit and camber the wheels a bit :)

still to go - carbon boot fitted and nismo z tune guards, not too sure wat to do for a wing??? that do luck one looks off tap

had the engine bay tidied up, will have pics next week of it

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
