Hi Guys,

This is an odd request and i probably wont get the most positive of responses,

but here goes !

My cousin returns from the mines in about 3 weeks and is in love with GTI-R's but has never driven one. It is a hard to get a chance to try feel what these drive/look like up close etc as they are not really in car yards around WA.

The question i would like to ask is that if anyone who owns one would mind him taking it for a very very respectable put put around the block to get a feel for the car. Or at least just a peek at one up close rather than in auction pics.

He is 28 yr old with a seamless driving record and currently owns a showcar level commonwhore. What i am getting at is he will not be a arse. He refuses to even drive my car hard.

Cheers

Avram

I have a Dakar GTiR and have 5 freinds with GTiRs in Perth.I think GTiRs are tops and have set lap records and run 12s at the plex in my GTiR before it was modifyed.I would recommend them to anyone and can't understand why anyone would have a WRX when you can get a GTiR for less and thats for a much quicker car.

I have proven them faster beating the best WRXs in town, Anyone with a wrex that thinks me wrong can try beat my time at meelup hillclimb, even Tony floods winning time this year was 2 sec slower.Go for it.

i have been gunning a gti-r for so long now, but all the examples that come through from an importer here are terrible looking condition wise.

one day i will get one.

raasclaat, dont mean to hijak but if anyone knows of an sr20 in a half cut waiting for a SSS pulsar, let me know

ok thanks steve. Hopefully yours will be at SST when i get a dyno done on my r32 when my cuz gets back.

He just wants to check out the car inside etc if you wouldnt mind. pics online never really show the small things u want to know before importing a car.

I personally have always loved them, but also never driven one. They are so ugly they are cool.

cheers

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
