One of the surprises that I was alluding to earlier relates to myself being a wheel whore and the black and white storm trooper theme, well take a look at these:

You gotta love the Japlish:

Custom satin black finish- good to look at; a bastard to keep clean!

Not as much concavity as a set of 18X10.5 +12:

Nothing like a fat girth!

Took over 6 months to get my hands on these

This beast needs grip too:

Latest release in Australia - Advan Neova Ad08

The grip exceeds that of Bridgestone RE010R and Hankook K107 by far. However, still not as good as R Spec tyres.

Look at that aggressive tread design - flaming! Tread wear is at a respectable 180.

Man this thread makes me want to sell my house and make a trip to bayswater.

Did you use the VHT wrinkle finish spray cans to paint the cam covers / oil catch? Looks the goods and will no doubt be easy to keep clean in black.

I think VHT wrinkle spray paint was used on Catch can and cam covers. The finish is non uniform and looks kinda cool.

The car is certainly 100% completed!

I will post dyno result and final pics of car on the weekend.

STOP TEASING US!!!!!

Are you coming to DECA with this GTR?

Im beginnign to wonder if this isnt another Racepace viral marketing thread! But who cares, I still want to see the diference Vcam makes to low end torque on this beast. And since Im racing this weekend im not going to see the dyno sheet till monday now.

Any chance you can tell us where you got that nice dashboard mat from?

now this guy is just f**king with us, lmao

wat a depressing thread!!

i see the pics and i think, fml, makes my car look like a grain of salt lol

My intention is certainly NOT to mess with anyone or to offend anyone. I am just a guy who likes his GTR and thought it would be a good idea to share the fruits of my labour (btw many many extra hours of it mind you) with everyone!

Can't make it to DECA as I have to work on those days to pay off the debt the car owns me!

I assure you, this is not a marketing ploy by Racepace. However, I am their loyal customer and they have done a superb job, therefore I am just giving them a thumbs up!

I bought the dash mat from Superior, can be ordered from any private JDM importer.

Cheers

Stop making us feel bad about what we all drive

Correction: I think its the R35 guys who make us feel bad about what we all drive LOL!

I love the look of black wheels on a white car. Makes it look tough

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
