Yeh i like porches but none of them really stand out to me, but the GT is insane,

The bestmotoring or topgear or whatever drive of it is pretty cool, he has the same reaction as when he was driving the 1000hp JUN Lemon 33GTR.. he basically just says "WOW, u need to be awake to drive this!"

Yeh almost the entire car is made out of silicon carbonate or something  

its insane,  

Altho, ide have to say no to the $1Million pricetag  

Not worth $1Million in my opinion

Imagine an R34 GTR VspecII NUR with $800,000 spend on it  

hehehe  

BOOOYA!

could you spent $800,000 on a r34 gtr VspecII NUR??

Seen the machine, wasn't really impress at all.  

pretty much of it is about more power and more refinement, no quatumn jump in car or engine technology, or construction techniques. Also i'm not a porsche or ferrari person.

Are you serious??? Inboard suspension and a carbon fibre monocoque might be old news in F1 but this is a semi-production road car.

p.s. The pictures look like they are from Hong Kong

And after all that money, it's still a Nissan.

I'd take the Carrera GT over a R34 GTR with $800,000 worth of mods anyday.

I was lucky enough to get an invite to a recent Porsche showroom gala opening which featured a real Carrera GT on the showroom floor. A beaitifull thing, but kinda "surreal" because of it's stratosperic asking price, too expensive to aspire to I think?

    • Yeah, you need to do it properly. You need to start out slow and gentle, ramping it up until they are good and hot, but not cooking, then roll off the other side (instead of letting them cool down quick).
    • I think yeah less hot fuel dumping into the top of the tank that wants to evaporate easily, fewer connections/hoses for permeation. Something like that. Also lower cost/easier production. Even my 2000 LS400/Celsior is a deadhead system. A single fuel hose to the fuel rails which have pulsation dampers attached and no return line.
    • I might do a few more high temp bed ins as described here.  I have a nice quiet 80kph road right near me.  How To Bed-In Your EBC Brakes For Street Or Track Use - EBC Brakes https://share.google/AjnOTILXoiqQnLu8p  
    • I did a few 80-0 stomps. I then just rode the brakes while I applied throttle for a while to get them nice and hot. I live on a big hill and have been down it a few times also with stomps and brake riding.
    • Biggest thing is you're okay!   It sounds like between the accident, and the drive home, it was a pretty torturous trip again! On the bright side, you took the opportunity to enjoy the event more from the perspective of a spectator, than as an entrant!   Sad to see so much damage to the car. It really has taken a HUGE hit in the front end. If/when you choose to repair, hopefully the rails are straight (At least from shock tower backwards). Hopefully the extra cage coming through there has save most of the chassis rails, and HOPEFULLY saved the motor too. Best of luck when you eventually get motivated to start pulling it down to check it all out
