After this Snowy, I think you've set a new record for motorsport enthusiasts who want to be you! :D

Can't wait to see it rock up to one of our meets :D

I wonder if it's faster than my car on Dandenong Rd or Nepean Hwy or Black Spur... ROFL!

if only that was photoshop, would make me feel better inside.

so jealous :D

Jealous? You should be happy not having to own one.

You just saved yourself $150,000 and having to re-treat the engine sleeve bore when it reaches 100,000km as part of the scheduled required service... I hate to know how much 100,000km service cost on one of this thing.

:-)

but of course, with a car like this, you have the right to still feel jealous...

By 100,000km I am sure that will be someone elses problem :D NOt too many GTR's around with 100,000 km+ on the odo..... hang on a minute ahhhh that what the nismo 320kmh white dial cluster is for... :D

Wow cool. Nice going snowy.

did anyone else read this differently after seeing DRD's avtar?

LOL.. good pick-up

Lol not to mention the post-track day inspection service by Nissan which costs thousands of dollars and is compulsory to maintain warranty. (But seriously who would know).

Yeah, Werribee Nissan is a GTR dealer. They won't let anyone test drive the GTR either, as all the stock has been pre-ordered and they would lose money on having a demo GTR.

can we rename this thread to "we hate snowy coz he's got a 35"

I LOL'd at the picture. nice one Andrew

oh, want to buy my plates? I'll put them in Unique Cars so some fan boy can stick them on his 35...

I don't think the people who buy these really care about 150k and I am sure that even if the 100k service is unusually high they will only get mildly annoyed.

plus.... people who buy these generally are not reluctant to trash the hell out of the $150k car...

see snowy's comment about using it for targa tassie!

    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
    • Cracked deck  And other cam snap stuff   
    • A few random issues have popped up since my last update. My WMI pressure sensor failed within about 10 minutes of it seeing liquid. It was a 20$ China special, so I'm not surprised. My name brand replacement should arrive today.  My power steering assist also decided to crap out last weekend. The usual, works for about 60 seconds after starting the car then I lose it. I dusted off my old copy of NDS and connected to the HICAS ECU. Code 4 for assist solenoid.... I tested the solenoid and it's fine.  I knew the day where my HICAS ecu would crap out would come, and I welcome it. It was the last HICAS part on the car that is now in the bin. I've ordered an SSR and I will control the power steering solenoid with my Haltech ecu. It will be nice to have proper speed referenced assist again after all these years.
