Well guys, the day has finally come.

The HipoGTR is on its way & a big thanks to Gio (its previous owner)...

Before I go onto talk about the collection & shipping. A number of people have asked me what the difference is on the limited edition 30 unit Vcam model I have. So Gio explained to me that the difference is:

(Gio and another friend of mine Dave, purchased 2 units via TS, with HKS keeping 2 back themselves) As far as we know, no other units exist outside the RH9 demo cars.

  • These units were not offered to customers to purchase
  • Sold to the RH9 shops only, such as TS
  • GT-R's had to be "pre-approved"
  • Were pre-production models, to show what the VCAM to do
  • Fitted to the RH9 demo cars
  • All ltd edition VCAMS were hand built, with superior parts than is widely found in the VCAMs now available.
  • mental price tag lol

I hope this helps people's questions.

I thought this would be interesting for others to see, and certainly makes the wait for me more exciting!

At 10am local Japanese time, we arranged for a bespoke car trailer to arrive at Gio's & collect the HipoGTR.

Gio was kind enough to take some pictures of it, as it left….

Waiting for its low loader….

Hi

the wheels are Rays 19" TE37s custom finish

(friend of mine has them on his 34 as well - we supplied them)

price - im afraid i will not / cannot discuss that. It is of no importance to anyone apart from myself.

but put it this way, cost wasnt an issue in the buliding of this 34

Yes it used to be blue:

its the same car that "JUST JAP" is using as his avatar on here

the car went back to TS for new aero kit, retune and few other bits and pieces like full strip down, and seamweld the chassis

used on the National Geographic R35 Film

im sure there are more but thats about it

320kph run

visit to TS

(some chaps just filmed the car..random video)

Bloody Hell

I just brought a modded Black R34 GTR V-Spec, but this make me feel as if i just brought Corolla

Wow.... more photos when it arrives in Australia please

i think it was featured in one of your magazines over there

i am actually trying to get a copy

its not gonig anywhwere near Oz im afraid

TS were also kind enough to provide this

nice little touch that they give owners of their TS cars to stick on the top of the TS shifter

(each one is different depending on power, so 400ps and over etc)

Newera is based in Japan

all parts & cars are shipped out JP, via Newera base

however i am based in the UK

so this GT-R will be shipped to the UK

i love this car especially the smaller stands for the rear spoiler it looks awesome.

just got a quick question, was anything done to the gearbox?

Thanks guys

Yes it was - Scott also remember to give us a call about your item ;-)

i love this car!! the HPI magazine shoot is awesome. power, looks and best of all everything is so subtle!

+1

any bloke in his SS wouldnt know whether it has 350hp or 800hp. unless he see's what's written on the gear knob, lol.

    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
