I still can't get over all those tough GT-Rs...

Please someone tell me that you guys collectively get together and enter all those GT-Rs into Car Shows? Like 10 GT-Rs in 1 stand?

Nothing will get the Japs attention more than a 7 second GT-R or a car show stand with 10 big-power GT-Rs in Oz.

I only had a quick glance, but I didn't see any pics of GTR-700 in there. Rezz, those GT-Rs lined up are all Autostyle (a car dealer) car's... well customer cars. As Roy pointed out, they all had dyno charts stuck up on their windows with 400kw+ readings... but none of them raced?

Also there was a maroon ECR33 with a 3L/T88 combo (and a ton of stickers) - did anyone see it run? Had gold RB26 covers on the engine but was a RB25 head...

I have only ever seen Dominics yellow gtr run a 10.5 the rest havent run....

Although they Were at Flying 5th (Bathurst) But didn't do to good...Comparing to other Cars that raced...

They are well presented cars and Most of them Have over 400kw at the treads...But it would be good to see the autostyle cars having ago at putting some numbers down To prove there power figures...

But i must say they look CRAZY!!!!

CHeers

DoughBoy, I have quite a few shots of GTR700 both preparing to race and with the bonnet up in my gallery.

Also that maroon 33 GTsT you refer to is owned by Da_Man who checks this forum ;) He ran a flat 12 but told me that he is concerned about going quicker as it would require a few additions to his car (to meed ANDRA safety requirements) that he cannot perform in time for future drag combat events (namely QLD this weekend)

As far as the autostlye cars are concerned I read in the Autospeed article posted earlier that Tim plans to hit the Wednesday night street meets soon

Guys Did anyone Take any photo's Of the ADVAN Yellow GTR????....

i took a pic of its motor but anyone got any other pics of it...

?

thanx

A couple I snapped...

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
