Well f**k, I thought you were still working on it. 

Don't mind me, I'll just be over here with my stock bottom end wasting more money on dailies and doing nothing to my race car.

With GT-R values soaring in Japan I made the decision close to two years ago to start seriously hunting for the cleanest BCNR33 I could find. I knew if I waited any longer there would be no possibilit

Also, clean the Sharpie off the paint, for a car that was meant to be "mint" that's a great way to make it look half arsed.  In the pic it really does look like the work experience kid was cuttin

As expected, the car flat out hauls...aside from the diff it’s piling on speed like the Mines R34. The whole cabin smells of E85...it’s great. Had a don mega sideways moment which put in perspective how much power this wild boar really has...was all crossed up and somehow managed to slingshot out of it. 

No doubt it’ll hold its own at the GT-R festival... I think ill wax it up real good & enter the show n shine. Not too keen on the motorsport  aspect as I already know it’ll blitz a lot of cars with me behind the wheel but don’t want to risk the panel gaps....that 1% chance is enough for me

Glad to hear you're enjoying it. 

Given it makes less power than mine did, and mine asn't fast, I would also avoid the motorsport section if you plan on trying to win anything. Remeber the types of builds people are doing these days, show and shine is a good choice for you. 

The thing to remember with GT-R sideways action i to not lift the throttle, you need to keep the power on to allow ATTESA to do the best it can to sort the issue. When you snap close the throttle in a panic, the power stops being deliverd to the front wheels and the car grips up and follows the direction you have the wheels pointed. Seen plenty of GT-R's spear off the track directly into the sand because people wind on too much lock trying to correct oversteer but don't pin the throttle. 

The other big GT-R issue is understeer, they're a bit heavy over the fronts, you will need to fix that with suspension setup or throttle control to bring the rear around. 

We're ready for onboard and dyno vids now thanks.

How come the cabin smells like E85 then?
Mine does too. I have narrowed it to a couple of things that need tidying, but by far the biggest culprit is the amount of fuel i dump out of the exhaust. Ever seen an F111 dump and burn? That's me!!! ?

Yep. First time i took mine out i didn't want to racr it around... I'd just spent a bunch of cash on it and didn't want to break it.
Fast forward to now and the carefactor for components is a lot lower for me.

Just don't crash it for the love of god!!! Get used to how it drives gently and find your way into driving it fast at your own pace. You have spent up big on it. Enjoy it at your own level. [emoji106]

      Unpeeling the Orange

      Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out

      Talk about noisy. Even when I still had the Tomei under the car I could distinctly hear the tires rolling. And I doubt I ever will need maximum grip like on a track. My GTR will maybe never even see the 600hp mark and I need to get used to the car quite a bit before challenging the limits of its handling. For the next winter storage I think I will get a set of these rubber drive-on thingies that have a tire shaped base. Those supposedly really help prevent flat spots.

      Well our climate is definitely way less hot overall and the weather can be quite picky at times. I just know that during normal road use or even spirited drives there is no way I'd be able to consistently stay in the operating temperature, and constantly changing the tire pressure would also be a royal pain.

      Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.

      For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
