nice bob - your gtr is a celebrity :)

thanks for sharing!

i cant read your image so i'll buy a copy for myself

Thanks Marco

I naturally can't post up readable text as the magazine would have my guts for garters but it is a good read and I thoroughly recommend the mag for the article.

Bob.

Great read!

How much of the article did you write Bob?

None..... but I did spend an hour on the phone to Cliff Chambers who wrote the article.

The only part that is factually incorrect is the stereo system. I told him it was a premium Clarion unit with a Blaupunkt Autoflex aerial but he called it a Blaupunkt system.

No big deal ...............

Bob.

The only thing I picked up was when he used the reference 'Sequential Turbo'. GTR's run 'Parallel twin-turbo'.

Still great read.

And your car Bob would have to be one of the most authentic GTR's around. Probably only second to a few oddballs in Japan who bought and stored them only :)Looked great on those pages.

Yes it is! ^ ^ ^ That's an awful faux pas (- an insult to Clarion)! :P

Nice to see your car doesn't have a mistake - even if they can't quite get all the details right Bob!

Thanks for the kind words.......

I still have a few cosmetic blemishes I'd like to correct. Hopefully these will be done by the end of the year.

Cheers,

Bob.

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
