Cops can't catch me once vtec kicks in

Cops don't care about you once they hear vtec kick in, they realise that it's a little baby n/a engine and don't even bother stretching the legs of their SS to pull you over. They'll probably see you at the next set of traffic lights anyway.

Here is my 'project' car. One day my dream car after I spend a lot of money on it.

Some of you may have seen it (me and my husband) on Saturday at Racepace

Welcome!

What did you get done at Racepace?

Chris was going over the car, and putting a quote together for what I desire as an end result.

I must say my purse will be the same weight because with such a large price tag the credit card will be getting a work out :P

got her wallet modified for weight reduction :P

Yeah that can happen with Racepace :laugh:

Haha! I see...

So Stage 1 Engine Build?

:)

Stage 1 plus injectors, plus pipes, plus -9s, plus sump, plus fuel pump, plus lots of other goodies that seem to cost more than the original car.

Having said that, after looking around at many of the R33 GT-Rs on car sales and going to see them, I am more then happy to spend the money on a reliable build that is done by a shop with a very good reputation.

Chris seemed very professional, and while perhaps higher priced than some builders his shop had a lack of hammers that was of considerable comfort :P

Once it is mechanically sound, I look forward to getting rid of the god awful silver. Might night purple will be my colour of choice.

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • 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.
