since thursday when I filled up with a full tank till today I've run on the same tank... that includes a trip to sunshine from mill park on friday night and sunday night to see my gf.

All up I've done 496km :) since i filled up n reset my thingy. and i've got a lil bit more to go :( i'll refill on thusday.

yes, well great fuel economy is somethng us N/A-ers take for granted :) downside is lower momentum pushing head back into chair and constant tendancy to see purple GTRs taillights.

there is something wrong... and as many a copper has found out, there is no turbo...

ahahhahahhaha pissa

I didn't realise you had a N/A

did you have trouble keeping up at any time or not (i would think not)

well it took a while for me to accelerate to get to the same speeds you guys were doin, but after that it was relatively easy to keep goin along the same speed.

Coming out of corners was a bit of a bitch coz you guys would shoot off to *80/90/100* and I'd be pudging along gradually increasing speed.

I didn't go with the lead pack for that reason, din hold you fellas up, I stuck with the GTSt's n didn't hold many people up. Altho I did cop a bit of abuse on the CB for havin a slow GTS :) but I gave it bak to em. esp Shivam, who will now NOT be gettin my rear pods. :(

Bah wait till I get my RB25DET in my GTS...

one thing I noticed was that some of the GTSt guys took corners a lot slower than I did so I sorta made up for lack of acceleration out of the corners. mmm love that constant power curve *not* damn license restrictions.

license restirctions?

yeah taking the corners quick can help you keep up quite well

MSPEC kept up with us GTR's at the front in his GTST, mainly due to him taking corners at very high speeds :)

yeah coz I was caught doing some naughty stuff I'm under a 115kw/tonne restriction on my license. :) my car was also impounded n my licesnse suspended for 6 months after which I went back to my L's I was under the old Provisional system back then. When it came time to get my P's again the new 3 year system had kicked in :(

How was everyones fuel consumption? I'm gonna fill up this arvo. I got 475km to this tank since last Thursday till now. I'm pretty impressed considering the cruise...

your joking right?

I filled up at the start... then needed to at the end.

I did about $50 in fuel. approx 300-320 out of a tank at the moment!

God-damn i need a PowerFC :D

    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..   
    • 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?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • 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
