Hey

Copyme if you claim to have 400kw + at the wheels then why didn't you try drag me a couple weeks ago. I saw you boosting around with that crazy Honda S2000 with the number plate phonix. I was in the blue R33 if you remember. anyway from the way you were pulling away from me it almost looked impossible for you to have that much power cause you were just barely pulling on me and i only got 209.9kw. WHen we got to line up you didn't even try and drag and then once i slowed down you zoom past me. whats up with that?

perhaps if he is like me, he doesnt want to drag EVERY boy racer who pulls up next to him.

I had some moron stop (yes, complete stop) in the middle of traffic in Elizabeth yesterday, wait for me to get up alongside him and wanted to drag!

not calling you directly a boyracer, but there are a lot of like minded imbeciles on the road, who have something to proove at every red light, regardless of what they have pulled up next to.

good post.

This thread really is taking on the proportions of a witch hunt.

Well i have the Dyno sheets to prove what i have at the wheels. I go cruising with those boys heaps, and well i cant remember another particular R33 wanting to drag. sorry. No offence but i probably didn't think you were enough of a challenge.

Iam back on my P-plates now and am trying to keep my license this time.

Dominik, if you want to have a drag, and have me blow ur doors off, PM during the week and we can organise a time and place to go for a quarter mile street run. Up to you dude if your trying to discredit me.

I'd hate to know exactly how much, I was working on the theory that there is too much porn on the internet, so I am going to download it all and save the rest of you. (You have to love unlimited broadband connections ) - not that ADSL crap:-)

I've e-mail and PMed you before, about more details on your Car.....yet no reply.

The information required for anyone contemplating purchase is lacking.

These days to buy a GTR's is cheap and they are as common as horse S##T.

But to transform a GTR into a real and unique car (in my terms) can be expensive, time consuming, but above all annoying, due to the assholes you have to deal with along the way and in the industry.

But consider this...on a car that is becoming COMMON the more you've spent the more you will lose....and depreciation sets in rapidly as time passes. You have to have a passion and a willingness to accept loss, when time comes to sell.

My TOYS are two at the moment.

A MY 2000 STI..... costs...about $80,000 to buy and modify (market value $36K to $40k)

A R33 GTR v-spec..... costs...stop counting (time is pissing me off)

The move to the GTR was for greater power satisfying potential (headroom).

Thinking out aloud here....I should have stroked the STI, then modified the box.

Have looked at an STI plus $50k changeover on a R34 vspec II in the Unique Mag, but only get secondhand information of interest from some empolyee and no definate answer.

Approached another MELB. dealer who also advertised a Ti. color R34 vspec with 6000k's on the clock at $89k....they never e-mailed me anything.

WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS INDUSTRY

No promises....but seriously more information on your Car.

A mutual price is only relevant to the facts.

Sorry i Hav'nt got an e-mail from you or a PM?! R34 GTR are not going to be a common skyline for atleast a few years, due to the restrictions on importing and lack of compliance (Bullshit!)

The blue R34 GTR V-spec II in Melbourne, is actually just a GTR, that has had a v-spec II bonnet put on it. Take it for a drive and you can tell that the vehicle has been severly crashed and had afront cut welded on to replace the damage. (Not the greatest repair job either). Pop the bonnet and you will see the non-nissan replacement parts and the bog under the radiator supports.

I have e-mailed you some pics and a list of whats been done, aswell as my contact number.

The Silver R34 GTR in Melbourne with 6000kms or so on it, is a completely standard V-spec non a bad car either.

    • 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?
