Hey guys, I'm considering ditching the gtr for something a bit more reliable, and the NZV8 race cars caught my eye. Looks like some can be had for under $30k and are a pretty sorted bit of kit for the money. Does anyone know much about them? Where I can find them for sale etc? Also what would it cost to bring a car from NZ? Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers!

Hi Jimmy,

No worries,

In my opinion there's not any good motorsport specific forums in New Zealand.

All the NZV8 cars will be getting a whole bunch cheaper soon as the series is ending here as they are making way for the V8 Supertourers http://www.v8supertourers.co.nz/

The NZV8s and the V8supertourers are two totally different classes, and will not run on the same weekends as each other.

There will however be a new car coming to replace the aging NZV8 ex-taxi's, These have been loosely called the "Car of Tomorrow" (named much like what the Aussies are getting as the "Car of the Future"....But will not be anywhere near the same)

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.

      Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?

      I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
