Would be interested to see if it is as quick as Matts GTR

Im going to go out on a limb here and say yes just taking into account the running gear in the thing and after talk to Dave and Max the other week about it again :(

Whats happened to the wild Green GTR?

Thats what were trying to find out Stu, i sent Nathan a message but he never got back to me???

I want to see it on the road (THE BEAST IT IS) :lol:

Yeah mate i find it a do a copy for you. What have you done with your old motor?

well from what i hear the reason the car is not on the road as all the paper work was not recieved and slowing the compliance process.

Will get back to as soon as i get some more info on the BEAST :rolleyes:

Sorry guys I was having trouble with my account and couldn't login. My dads car had trouble getting complianced - but it's now got the road worthy and I think it's been rego'd and ready for the road/tracks!

Geez guys - amazing to see how such speculation gets around. To clarify a few things for you;

* I assume you are talking about the Jade Green R32 GTR ( Yanack), not the Pearl Green R32 GTR, as I have provided both of these down in Hobart.

* Yes, your specs on the Yanack are correct ( someone probably pulled them off my internet ad) but to resolve the HP issue note that this was dynoed in Brissie, and recorded 454 rwHP. That's not Kw and it's not all wheels, as car was running a 2 WD set up at the time. Since then, Gino's grabbed the necessary transfer and diff pieces from me and it's running 4WD ( courtesy of Griffiths Autos hard work on the project). Still, I believe this car is capable of much more if given a turbo upgrade. Just makes it a little less driveable ( it's already something of an experience - T88, T51, etc just make it even more problematic driving round those busy Hobart streets).

* The delay in registering was more due to my stuffing around than a lack of paperwork, but I'm sure Gino will tell you that I'm not the quickest with these things sometimes.

* Did someone say Max's R31 was owned by a tuning shop? I don't think so, it was owned by a 1/4 mile freak in Japan. I know this because I got this one over as well, but when I supplied to Griffo the clutch was stuffed and car needed a serious performance tune ( not helped by the HKS F-Con V's.....). I hear he's getting some serious numbers out of this now. Unless you mean Yanack was owned by a tuning shop ( which is pretty obvious)

* Pearl green R32 GTR will also be back out on the road soon. Forgies, new turbos, freshened engine - asking price $26K with full rego, R33 GTR rims, etc - email [email protected] if interested.

* Keep an eye out for the white GTST that I've just sold. For a GTST it puts out phenomenal HP ( was dynoed at 565BHP - 317rwKw) in melbourne recently, and will make for a v. quick Skyline.

Can someone tell me - I was told that the quickest GTR in Tassie is running in the 11's ( not 10's) as in a proven, carded time. Is this right?

Yes the fastest time down here is Matt Rickards R32 GTR, 11.06 @128mph that was in full steet trim, pump fuel street tyres ect. Matt is changing it to a Big single in the hunt for mid 10's and still be streeterbale and not a laggey monster, Ben at Race Pace in Melbourne is Building it.

    • 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..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • 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
