Hey Nick, :)

No ridiculous mods. Previous owner did do some modifications to it but made sure to keep everything easily reversible. Came with original parts for reverting to stock.

I guess the basics are the original N1 block (-7s and strengthened block), Jun cam gears and cams, Motec ECU, Nismo intake piping, plenum, exhaust manifold and titanium exhaust, HKS EVC controller set at 20psi for standard running, Ohlins suspension, Ikeya links, AP racing floating discs with upgraded Brembo calipers, ATS triple carbon clutch and carbon propshaft. Fuel system is Bosch 044 + HKS fuel rail and Sard 700ccs.

I haven't even had much of a chance to take it on a long drive yet!

It was so hot on Sunday I looked at plenty of awesome fare at AJD but didn't take any photos aside from the GTR group we had at the end. Regret it now; there were some great photos to be had...

Hey Matt,

Got some really nice shots of the ring but as i was driving it for 2 days really didn't get to shoot as much as i wanted. Still some nice shots all the same. The main viewpoints were Bergwerk, Brunnchen, Pflazgarten

Can't believe how clean your R34 is - Immaculate!!!! Wish mine was half as clean but cant really expect much from a track only 34GTR. Just wish i didn't have to rip off the nismo side skirts (dam you ripple strips and trailer) they make it look so much tougher just too low for me :((((

Josh

Cheers Josh. I will have to make the journey at some point.

Regarding the GTRs, I guess that's the trade off - it's good that you're using yours as it was intended, to the full - on the track. I've always been a bit hesitant to take my cars to a circuit. If I happened to live near the Nurburgring though (or Spa, or any of the other great circuits) I doubt that I could resist!

WOW your new nur looks amazing! Where on earth did you find that???

Looks phenominal, only suggestion would be to swap the centre caps to the diamond cut finish so they match the wheel centres instead of the spokes. But that's just personal preference.

mine for comparison (not the best angle though).

Thanks Matt

Will come have a look at it next time we are both at a meet

I love a good set of brakes :thumbsup:

Sounds like a nicely sorted set up suspension wise, and if you need to for some reason remove those ohlins hahaha :whistling:

Thanks fellas. It was bought off a nice chap from the ACT.

Tim - I got you... I tend to agree, and trust someone from the photography thread to pick up on that! Attention to detail to the max :miner:

Yeah Nick, the brakes were a big draw for me when looking at the car. Brakes were always something I wanted to upgrade on my old R33. I'm trying to get a bit more info on them.

Keep the awesome photos coming guys!

haha only noticed as my set of caps just arrived in the mail last week & the picking colours thing is fresh in the mind!

In November, ive been busy taking heaps of shots of mates as well as random cars i came across. Here are few that ive chosen to share. Feel free to comment

NOTE: This is a hobby to me so dont take my photos too serious. Also, some shots have been taken in public places without owners permission. If there is a concern, PM me and ill remove the photo in question. Thanks -)

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
