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,

Trademe is the best place to find race cars for sale in New Zealand.

http://www.nzv8s.co.nz/pages/12/bnt-v8s.htm

http://www.psracing.co.nz/ have built 14 of the NZV8 cars

And http://www.internationalmotorsport.co.nz/_Information/For-Sale.asp have also built a number of cars.

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)

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.

      You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛

      Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.

      That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together

      I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it.
