Hi all,

I asked GARAGE SAURUS in Osaka a question, and the bloke who replied, Mr Hayashi, enclosed a photo of his GTR. It recently ran an 8.4 second pass.

That seems a little quicker than anything on the SAU front page :D

The photo is 2.3MB, so probably a little too big to post.

Yeah, send them to [email protected] and [email protected] if you could please.

Thanks, Steve.

I've loaded it onto my web site, but it will take a little while to load - it's 2.3MB.

I'll try to reduce the resolution etc to make it more 'download friendly' after I finish an assignment (due tomorrow).

If you don't mind the size, it's at

Geez... ever heard of resizing mang?

some of the quarter runs in japan are done on the famous downhill dragways, at high altitude... I wonder if the guys here ran their cars on the jap dragway if they'd hit the elusive 8's.

Hey Shan higher altitude = thinner air = less power though...

How downhill we talking here? like 1-in-5 or 1-in-100?

:)

That yellow 32 looks very similar to one from TAS that was running the OS Giken 3 Litre kit.

8.4 is extremely impressive, Garage Saurus is responsible for a shipload of very very hardcore cars.

;)

it is the same car, just looks more orange,

and wouldnt you love to be that guy in the smoke, LOL

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn
