So sad !!!! :)

I've had the pleasure of parking my butt in the drivers seat of that DR and it gave me goosebumps !! The car is in "as is" condition, fresh from it's last race 15 odd years ago and it still has all the race car appeal that it did when I saw it race around the mountian so many years ago........ Oh how I wish I had the money....... :D

As for the EXA........... Well that car's just plain SCARY !!! Can you say "touque steer" ??? No wonder Fred gave it to Christine to drive :)

I wonder if this is the one thats at the Laporchetta Trackside resturaunt in Gosford. The owner has a DR gibson skyline, Longhurst's old seirra and heaps of skyline posters/photos/signed stuff etc

go book a table and have a look :)

Of course the GTR doesn't get out too often, I don't think its much good as a daily driver. He did bring it along to the first show n shine and to a track day a while back, but the R31 gets out much more often.

If that dr is $150000 what would the GTR be worth???

It had a ground up refurbishment after it's last race ( and has never been raced since ) so at a guess, considering it's condition ( unf***in believable ) and racing heritage ( just say "GODZILLA" ), I would suggest you would be pushing some big 6 figure $'s to get your hands on it ( if Terry would ever part with it ) :) If he did I know I'd be in morning for a long time :(

    • What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.
    • I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.      
    • So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about
    • This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but.. 
    • Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
