Silver R35 on sunday after the hillclimb heading towards QBN from Airport.

Saw the Red one nissan had at the motor show and it was sweet but on the road these cars look AMAZING (oh and better in silver than red).

Not a spotted as such but had an interesting experience this morning. Pulled up beside a marked police car this morning at a set of lights, who then proceeded to follow me to the carpark and drive in big loops around my parked car. Strange thing was, i got out of the car and started walking into work and they didn't try to stop me, just kept looping around my car before driving off. Seemed rather odd, if they were checking to ensure it wasn't stolen i would have thought they'd have told me to stand by the car since they let me just walk off out of sight before they finally drove off. Didn't make any sense to me?

Yeah I had a chat with John about my car, as he pointed out to me, my car isn't in as straight condition as yours, so would require a fair bit of correction work, so didn't end up getting a quote. Needless to say, getting mine resprayed to my satisfaction would probably cost a fair bit more than your example which he said was very straight.

So unforunately won't be going the full hog on the exterior for at least a few more years if that. As I can't justify the amount of money it will cost me atm.

never been happy with the cars panel gaps, they are a bit all over the shop. But the car drives straight overall.

checking for defects by the sounds of it...as they can defect you even when your not at your car.

Maybe so, but he was a bit too far away to spot the obvious ones (shhh!) and i'd imagine if that was the case he'd get out of his car and actually walk round it so yes, very odd.

    • Bah! I can't see the point in custom number plates at all. I went to the rego office, fished through a box of "premium" plates (the ones that had the "not as tall" option for the front plate) and picked the one that had a 32 in it. That's the limit of the effort and cost I will put into number plates. The only plate that I'd consider paying for would be 2332, but that's not possible here because it already exists from probably 90 years ago, and it would cost a fortune to obtain it, if it were available.
    • After chasing my tail with LS results..... and cheaper than a turbo swap... How confident are you that the dyno is accurate relative to other results? How fast is the car - What MPH does it actually run? Is this similar to what people running this power would expect?
    • Hi mate I am having an identical issue with my 98 R34 GTT. The engie suddenly cuts out under load at about 3-4k, black smoke out exhaust. Almost feels like traction control kicking in. No CEL but still going to check codes later today. Car was sitting in the shed for about 5 months before hand and only idled a few times, took her out with about 1/4 tank, filled up and thats when the issues started happening.  Threw on a spare set of coils/harness and checked plugs which was no help. Recently had fuel pump/filter changed so surely thats not the issue unless condensation in fuel, I just havent had the time to drain it It's running a hi flow turbo, bosch 1000cc injectors, walbro 450L, Z32, Nistune etc... All about 2000km old.
    • I always wonder where the obsession with legal/illegal spacing on number plates in the UK comes from. Because it comes up in comments in every UK-based video I see on youtube. From my point of view all of your plates look a bit odd. Just because there are no markings whatsoever. In Australia we have the state that has to be on it. In Europe you get stamps and state logos. Yours look a bit like a throwaway draft that people then stuck with. And attached with blu tack so that it falls off at the slightest disturbance. Not trying to hate, but it's interesting how things are done in different countries. Do you have to follow a lettering convention when choosing a custom plate?
    • Hybrid sounds like a supercharger... It's half a turbo, with a belt to drive it! Oh wait, they're just called super chargers...
