lol, jesus im glad i dont own a GTR ( yet ), i never thought the bug of modifying and spending money on it would be THAT bad lol.

i've only got a gts-t and its already cost me like.... close to 25 gran if i add it all up .... actually more, more like 30 ( purchase price included), if i didnt have to spend 8 gran to get it fixed after the accident it had, then it'd be a more reasonable price lol :P

meh plenty still gets spent on shoes.

Although Kel let out a classic quote this week "You can drive the race car today, its too hard to drive in high heels" :rofl:

It's true!!!!!

Have you ever tried to heel-toe in a pair of stilettos :)

Ah Kel, where would we be without you....and your guy who is all too keen to drop you in it?? :):P

I'm contemplating a few purchases for either the 25t track car or a future track GTR. Fuel cell, hollinger box,race seats, cage, suspension, head etc. The list just goes on but hopefully I can pick up a broken fully prepped 33 race car that has been sitting around a while. Might save me 30K.......

You mean that thing Teulan nailed into the back of another car? Not a Nations cup car that I know of. It is a 33GTR that went off track and landed over a check bung bending the chassis. Still drivable but written off and bought back by the owner. Still sweating on some detail on prices.

Its only depressing once it blows up :(

This poll is truly just to make myself feel a bit better.

 

How much have you guys honestly spent on your gtr's in terms of modifications ?

 

I think ive just hit over the 10k mark and its rather depressing :D

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
