Was curious on knowing what the plans for this car are..

Last I heard the owner was overseas, with hopes of getting straight back into it on arrival. This was a good year ago. Saw the car recently at a certain workshop (won't name) and was told the same thing.

http://www.exvitermini.com/ has been crashed for quite some time now.

Any one got some goss :P

How complete did the car look?

Any more on this?

And on the topic of CRD cars, I saw a pic recently of CRD's "RH9" R34 GTR with what looked like GTR700's old rims and possibly tyres on a drag strip - so this car has actually hit the strip. Does anyone know what times it has run? Has it actually earnt the RH9 title?

it hasnt run a 9 yet, but definitely has the MPH and power to run well into the nines.

Anyone know what power its made and what the MPH was?

Was it run at full weight and in full street trim?

Anyone know of a full weight 34 running quicker than 9.7?

Thanks Rob

RH9 will be hitting the strip again soon....its full weight Rob and will smash that time you are so proud of. :banana: (sh1t stir to be taken in jest)

Its now under the guidance of a new workshop....it will fulfil its so far untapped potential.

Twoogle will be back very soon to....8's are the target...the fastest genuine road registered GTR in Aust.

Great, and best of luck to him but what MPH has it run so far?

And surely you arn't calling it RH9 if it hasn't even done a 9??? (an equally harmless windup)

Rob

Hehe...i constantly give John (the owner who called the car RH9) a dig at the fact my car has run more 9 sec passes than his car has run 10's...hehe

I think he should have waited till the car had ran the times before putting the RH9 number plates on it...as he cops a lot of sh1t over it.

He runs it on slicks too....which is against RH9 regs....i think he should switch to street rubber and earn the RH9 tag first.

Might be coming over the ditch soon Rob....will call in if i do.

Last I heard about the topic the RH9 plated 34 hasn't ran into the 9's yet..

Im sure DiRT could add to this

lol i remember when that muppet show was in Melb what, 4-5 years ago now?

All arrogant and being wankers basically to the Vic crew who just happened to be where for our drag day...

Was funny half way through the day when they had to come and ask SAU members for parts to borrow that they 'left behind'.

It has the RH9 plates on it way back then, semi-stripped interior and i think even the glass was replaced with plex...

Its still good to see so many years later still hasnt produced the goods.

Laughable at best.

I know Mario (GTR700) upset some people but did John?

    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
