lol, yeah keep the cardigan well hidden mate.

for sure the F1 was just insane for it's time. hard to contemplate. I went in one at age 16 in sydney and it was pretty special. ingrained in my memory. I would consider murdering for a serious drive in one.

F1 Longtail, definitely in the big mac orange !

Baron: that flat nose porsche is f**king sexual in race trim.

Mmmmm Quattro !

There is just too much nice stuff to think about !

Speaking of ruining threads, have you finished 98 yet ?

I don't see why more people don't go the long tail.

It's like ordering a salad roll, when I get a burger I want my meat and two veg !

lol, yeah I'm up to 99 now. just watched the first half of round 8, silverstone last night. schuey had a big smash on lap 1 (at stowe I think?) and looks to have broken his legs. not nice. :(

Oh for the love of God, get that bucket of bolts out of here!

Bloody HQ with a body kit. Or is that vice-versa..... either way, not aspirational.

Haha, sorry to gate crash the party but i just have a soft spot for those damned things. :wub:

Come on, all flaws aside they are one mean muscle car.

F1 GTR would be my pick of the maccas lot; Is like the Quarter Pounder (All meat and Protein) to the Roady F1s Big Mac (not quite man enough, leaves you wanting more) and the McFeast of the Long Tail (too much and only shows its advantages for short times)

How about a Dauer 962

IMO I think its about time the japs entered the super car group as they have proven themselves a worthy contender for years.

So yeah discuss/share stories.

Datsun / Nissan were competing against the Porsche 904 since the 1960's with the S54 2000 GT-B.

The R32 GTR was deigned to target the Porsche 959 and Group A Racing.

Due to the 'Gentlemen's Agreement" it had restricted the out right power and Porsche still saw the upper hand from factory.

But still knowing the GTR had massive potential with aftermarket support.

Same with Porsche themselves.

R35 GTR is now "Super Car" territory and competes with the Porsche 911 GT2 / GT3 / Lamborghini Gallardo / Ferrari F430, just to name a few.

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
