* Many Thanks to JLM for completing a "special order" for this VS2 N1

* Many Thanks go to Skylines Australia; for without this club, I wouldn't have the cars I have now, to play around in.

And the owner is not too shabby either ;)

Thank you fellahs for your appreciation and nice comments.

There's always a 'black sheep' pic that doesn't make it into an article and in this case, it was this one.

I obviously hadn't taken the right line and was approaching the apex late.

It really is a great track and I'd encourage any SAU guys to take a photographer with you when you take your car up for a Bathurst run.

Yes, I took Tash and Matt to spot ahead for me too, for obvious reasons.

Latest News:- SpeedHunters has just announced that this article has in the first 24 hours, been "shared" over 80x, and has had over 2100 "likes" - both records.

That's awesome to know you've broken 2 records! all that e-fame, they should feature your posts in the finding nismo thread, they'd have a heart attack! :rofl2:

I think the R32 is a car that can be appreciated by anyone, their articles about drag racing in the US and bosozoku culture and other niches are fantastic, and are always enjoyable to read.. But a clean and rare edition of an R32 GTR hits home with everyone.

Congratulations again :)

Congrats Terry! So what happened when Speedhunters first rocked up to interview you? Did you tell them they'd never heard of their pokey little motoring blog lol?

Hahaaa I'm so naive that I would believe it if you told me you'd never heard of Bathurst before either.

I personally did an 11th hour search of SpeedHunters before the interview.

Much appreciated you guys.

Just to join some dots, since SpeedHunters is followed devotedly (apparently) by many in the US; because auction prices in Japan have escalated appreciably concerning 1989-90 GTRs; and whilst many good BNR32s have come to Australia, the prospects of BNR32 values appear to remain healthy for well cared for models with service history (preferably from Japan as well as in Oz) intact. My 2c.

It's kinda weird, the moment I saw the lead-in picture on SH the other day my first thought was "I bet it's an SAU member" and my second thought was "I bet it's that Terry bloke", even though I didn't actually know what GTRs you had. Top quality example, well done. :beer:

    • @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo :-D 
    • Echo the awesome sentiment 👍 Definitely a car worth saving. Looking forward to seeing updates as well.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
