does anyone know what mods the winfield gtr had?

It would be easier to make a list of the things that weren't modified, I reckon. After seeing just a small damaged part off this car recently, I'd safely say no stone was left unturned. Beautiful no expense spared engineering! :worship:

Some info & vids here; http://www.skylinesa...d/page__st__360

But just the tip of the iceberg surely.

Well doing some research On the bathurst track i seen that 2:12min was the record for a R32 GTR back in 91/92 I think i saw tat a stock R35 did it in 2.25min.

records for v8s are:

The lap record for the race is the 2:08.4651 recorded by Jamie Whincup in his Ford BF Falcon in 2007,[1] not to be confused with the fastest lap ever recorded, a 2:06.8012 set during practice in 2010 by Holden driver Craig Lowndes.[2]

But i wonder with all the new technology now modding an r32 GTR would even challenge todays v8 Supercars.. AMAZING

its funny this thread was revived as i had the exact same conversation with my brother last night!

thanks for the lap time info, just what i need :)

You must be talking only v8 supercabs for outright record.

I was at Bathurst for this, and the record belongs to F1;

geez stevo - thanks for sharing, what a clip! the camera could only keep up with its zoom haha

I still remember Carlings 300ZX kicking butt at Gold Coast Indy all those years ago. Was a real shame Kayne Scotts Peanut Slab Sierra got caught up in shipping and didnt qualify and had to start from the back of the grid. Would have been great to see those cars go head to head.

Mind you no disrespect to Keith, but I suspect he needed a little more car to get the job done vs Kayne who I think was a better steerer

    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
