http://www5a.biglobe.ne.jp/~supercar/CARS/...aso_pantera.jpg

That car right there is NUTS!

A mate told me about it during one of the formals.. Its apparently got a rear mounted 351 V8 engine, with 4 carbys (1 carby for every 2 cylinders for those playing along at home). Its also a 4V engine, which was explained to me as having 4 valves per cylinder, as apposed to 2 valves in the ordinary 351. Because its rear mounted, it creates an amazing amount of power... and noise...

I just want one.

Either way, all the skylines looked very tight, specially yours steve and another wine red r33 with a drift style wing. Are your front gaurds custom steve? the whole kit looked real nice, and different too?

Dayne

they are a great looking car, 4V refers to the design of the head - the intake port has a greater volume than the 2V. not sure anyone makes a 4 valve head for the 351. came standard with a 4bbl, common set up is to use downdraft carbies like moffat had on the mustang and the falcons for a while. looks truly amazing.

a friend had one, you could just get a coke can sideways under the rear cradle.

de tomaso also made the mangusta, another great looking wedge style.

Saw a white R32 with black rims going down Mort Street in Civic. Saw from my work window :D I think he stopped for maccas too.

And while out at Ed's today, saw an awesome looking R33 GTR with paint that looked black from afar but was actually very deep purple up close... Ed was about to put in a RB26DETT which I saw at various stages at Ed's while making a few trips out there over the past few weeks. Swap ya for mine :O

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I highly rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
