Hi guys!

As you know the rules for bringing a GTR to the states are pretty nasty assuming you want it to be registered and road legal. If you want to race it the rules are it has to be a legit race car with a race history (which I suspect can be confirmed by a CAMS log book). Then it can race in historic/vintage.

Anyone know of any real race cars that fit that profile for sale?

BSM car is an absolute bargain for the development, (money, time, testing and knowledge) that has gone into it....no matter what they are asking. It think people deeply underestimate how hard it is to develop a race car.

the GIO/any gibson car are obviously the same, times 11ty. But my problem would be I could never drive it hard as it needs, just too much history to risk it :)

Wasn't the GIO car the sister car to the Gibson R32? If that's as close as anyone can buy to such a historical piece, you can guarantee huge $$$, well over what the parts together are worth. I know I'd just about sell my soul for it, and I'm generally a muscle car guy. The controversy, the brilliant development... *starts drooling* I can only hope my commodore would have half as many brilliant ideas in it.

    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
    • Ah coolant overflow, previous discussions make way more sense now lol. 
    • ok. Yea, then I would need to remove the turbo and weld an adapter on to it instead, if I fuc* this one up.  
    • No. Only for a standard ECU with/without Nistune. Standalone has no need for it. That's like the 3rd time I've said so.   And as to that sensor linked - yes, it does look like it would be the right one. I've never bothered to see how available they were - just assumed that they'd be hard to find. I think I'd be planning to go Link ECU rather than buy sensors I don't actually want to make Nistune work, if I did not already have Nistune. As you do not already have Nistune, you should realy consider your options.
