Hey mate congrats on the new car!

I can't beleive how much you picked it up for. I have not been keeping track on the market lately, quite amazed.

Well have fun with it, and be prepared to keep that wallet open once the mod bug bites...

Cheers

Good buy, you forgot to mention sunroof.....

if its running 11psi i would probably at the very least put an r34gtt side mount intercooler or better.... just for added piece of mind...

... enjoy ... :D ...

... as a matter of interest what does the sticker on top of the timing belt cover say ? ....

look exactly the same as the sticker on my timing belt, should say 100,000k service.

..... thats exactly what i was implying .... if its got that sticker its done 100,000 klms .... you might be lucky & it hasnt done many more .... nevertheless not too worry itll be good for many many more if you service it often ... :) ...

It doesn't have a clutch fluid reservoir :)

. . . thats cool . . . the RB25DET AUTO is still pretty gutsy . . . it looks in good nic . . . 8 grands on the high side of round about right for a clean one . . . :down: . . .

. . . though i must admit id be terrified of hitting a pot hole with 20in rims . . . not a lot of rubber there between the rim & the road !!! :)

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.

      There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.

      yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.

      Yes, well. Mine are less than half that. ARBs are not set to "dumb" either.

      I would hope. But, we all know even the best companies have an issue sporadically.
