[Primordial]

Yeah I caught the very end of this last night. I hate that too... I finally find something I wanna watch (after flicking endlessly for 29 mins) and it finishes about 1 min after I start watching it!

Heres the R32 GTR they did, doesn't look too bad for an American effort, nice rims, just needs to lose the decals.

[JieLine]

What the hell?? Boyd Coddington sucks! everythings so rushed, 2 days to prep and paint a car!!

He fires anyone for looking at him wrong and he's got no one to work for him.

Chip Foose all the way!

[Topaz]

Those 2 cars are some of the cleanest I've ever seen, but they really need to leave the 70's and get some decent rims.

For some reason the first thing i noticed is it didn't have the front diffuser lip. I reckon all 32 GTR's should have that. Don't even ask why i'm picky about that but for some reason they add a touch of more toughness about them then IMO.

[Guest Mashrock]

thats the car they ended up with?? holy f**king shit!

thats the bestest r32 ever!! haha sit i have had photos of that one on my pc for a while!

definatley not one thing i can find wrong with that car at all.

[71superbug]

chip foose is good but he builds for a different level.

boyd coddington is an excellent builder of rods, there is no denying that.

although because he is now so well known and publicised for building quality rods the demand for his work is now much greater, and tell me honestly, would you not build them quicker for the amount of money he makes?

The XS Engineering R32 Skyline GTR was built from the ground up to serve as an on-going showcase for our tuning abilities. This vehicle is a prime example of our innovation, technical expertise, and workmanship. Originally created during the Street Tuner television series, this R32 has been and will continue to be refined on a day to day basis. Recently, we have used it to claim both the AWD and Overall Championships at the Modified Magazine/Redline Time Attack in Fontana, California.

Horsepower: 851.0 whp @ 2.0kg/cm^2 (28.4psi) of boost

and before it all took shape

also. no doubt all those decals on that car are there because most of the parts they would have used were probably supplied by sponsors with the agreement their company name is to be displayed to MILLTIONS OF VIEWERS on national tv.
