dude - you have to watch the GTR dvd.....its got a whole bit on the race spec skylines - the ones they had on that dvd was the Falken skyline - awesome car....wouldnt mind winning a raffle to drive that around the track!

Guys, relax with the flaming. It was a honest question that I had asked.

I do not know how much they are worth, what it was and whether it was street legal or not. Just looked at it, and said - wow, it looks so nice, love the body etc that's all.

I really want one, but after reading what you guys posted, I guess perhaps it's really expensive and not street legal then.

Never mind, thanks all the same.

Wow...........

The 2 guys standing next to the car with full matching race suits didnt give away that this may be a race car and not a road car...

and the roll cage, the fact it has a huge amount of aero kit, slick racing tyres.... THE HELMETS ON THE BONNET didnt give you any hint that this may not be a car for road use??

You honstly thought this is a car you could buy and drive on the roads here... Do you look at formula one cars and think, hmmm they are fast, maybe I should order one to get me to work a bit quicker.... I am speechless :D

Basically that is the japanese equivalent of a super car.. infact it's a lot better than one of those. It is an extreme race car not far off lemans type racers. To drive that on the street would be.. err.. funny. They are pretty much one of a kind and certainly not for sale to the public very often. I hate to think what the price tag would be too, i'm fairly sure it would be in excess of some of the most expensive exotics around.

    • It's aftermarket. It also reeks of Honda Civic tryhard from 2003. But if you want one....then you want one.
    • Well some mostly good news and some slight bad news.  Good news is cylinder 6 did in fact only require a honing and I'm good to run my 86.5mm pistons again. I should also get the block back by end of week. Bad news, had a few surprises pop up. First, main and rod bearings were trashed. No sign of any heat damage. I knew right away what caused this... I had not packed my oil pump originally and spent a lot more time than I would have liked cranking the motor to get oil pressure. It sounded fine once started so I chucked it up to luck and forgot about it. Luckily rod and crank are fine and just need new bearings. Engine builder agreed that this was the cause.    Another surprise that carbon covered up very well that I didn't catch, something got sucked up and went through cylinder 1, 2 and 3. Luckily this was no cause for concern, just needed a bit of cleaning up. Valves look fine but he will vacuum test the head this week to confirm. I'm presuming this was something left over from welding my intercooler piping, but we'll never know. I'm going to thoroughly reclean everything.    So all in all, happy the motor is fine, and I'll get it back much sooner than expected. I'll also be taking the time to convert my WMI system over to direct port. I'll snap some pictures of that when the parts come in. 
    • I understand, thanks. Yeah I wouldn't want the car to tip over, I'll try and use the sills, I don't want to risk smashing the chassis rails. I ordered some rubber pucks that have a hopefully big enough slotting. If the front right gives me trouble I can always just make a wood block. I'll measure and inspect the sills closer once I actually take the car up. I hope so, but the rubber blocks I had in hand so far were pretty damn firm, if they are that hard they won't give much way. I'll let you know what happens. Angle grinding rubber isn't one of my favorite tasks. I'll probably start a build thread soon, for my own documentation and "log" as well as sharing what's going on with the car.
    • Kinda something I have been thinking about.  To be honest, we bought it already driving like that.  So there's no telling how long it actually has been driving like this.  Hopefully damage is too bad when we drop the pan.   I am having a hard time finding a site that sells the solenoid for the 5 speed auto, do you have any suggestions?
    • That'll be most likely down the road...  LOL
