I have no objection with interstate buyers... It's just that if we decide on a swap + cash adjustment, then getting a modified gts-t complied in NSW could be a pain in the ass

anyways

long overdue BUMP!

Quick update on the car.. it is now sitting on 19" Rota P45R rims with 275s all around.. its got 3.5" fronts, a high flow cat and 3.5" cat back... It's become a noisy mofo... Power has gone up a little and lag has come down a little... A retune will show true results of the exhaust upgrade... Will put up pics with the new wheels shortly

you know I build good cars Matty :P

I'm in two minds about this one bro... if i get the price I want I'll sell it...

But it is a top car... perfect street GTR in my opinion

still dont get it why sell a GT-R for a GTS-T or GTT...sure rwd is fun, but awd is also 'point and shoot' fun???? much better on corners, bends, faster take-off...

Go EVO 7/8.. btw just wondering - a 270rwkw GTST and a 270awkw GTR - do they drive similar?? which one shoves u in the seat more, feels like its got more to give ??? Sure GTR is heavier, but its got awd.. still got way to go with my approx 190rwkw GTT.... :(

Evo 7/8 are too old for novated leases

270kw GTS-T pushes you back in the seat more... the way boost is delivered is different... its a big rush on the GTS-T rather than a smooth surge on the GTRs

plus they are lighter and i think you feel the sensation of speed more on a RWD

everyday driving the GTS-Ts are more fun i think :)

ephesian - not after anything too old mate...

rondofj - not a fan of the supra... back seats are fricken tiny and im always have more than 2 ppl in the car (not sure how that will work if I end up with a 370z)... plus they seem pretty bulky/heavy too. Plus I see whole lot of non-turbo auto chromy nuggets around my area and that has put me off them

thats the exact same reason I dont like supras - too bulky / heavy looking, looks more 20s something car, other than that my dream ride is a R34GTR/GTT with a 2JZ..

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
