just buy it you weak fag so i can kick your ass in my GTR and laugh at your gay wheels. yeah you heard me bum burgler. ;)

sounds good to me. if the body is straight, and it's a Vspec then $25K is not unreasonable to pay. the engine bay in particular looks very clean.

Have a look at this if you want some real track value for money for around the same bucks.

The previous track use of this car is my only issue, and the transport/rego change, but I might have a look at it.

thats true about the previous use but at least you know what internals it has....theres nothing wrong with a car being driven for what it was built for..

but at the end of the day its your choice i just thought that it was a good car to look at considering what you want to do

i dunno, lots of track use shags a car in ways most can only imagine. parts you don't even know exist get worn out. on the other hand it has lots of good gear on it. and on the third hand this one is a Vpsec which definately adds some value and exclusivity. I think I'd probably go for the vspec. ;)

Look at the parts list on the V Spec.

Normally I would opt for the V Spec as well due to it being a more sought after model, however given the modifications, im sure the previous owner in Japan made good use of them, be it at a track or on the street, so I wouldn't write off J-Boys assuming that it has more wear and tear than the V Spec would.

While J-Boys car has been heavily track raced, its got a fair whack of history to back it up, which is a good selling point, not to mention the fact its a proven performer with what appears to be very comprehensive list of upgrades.

At the end of the day, Paulies buying the car to violate at the track, so with that in mind, dollar for dollar, J-Boys is better value.

Disclaimer: I am not getting any kick-backs from J-Boy for my recommendation ;)

    • I used the radium thing, makes the whole parallel assembly a lot more compact compared to any other way of doing it 
    • Racetronix also sells those ethanol content sensor bypass blocks. Adapter, Flex-Fuel E85 Sensor High-Flow Bypass, In-line No Sensor (ADF-FLEX-NS): Adapters - Flex Fuel | Racetronix Ethanol content sensor are originally designed to be on the feed line. These bypass blocks are meant to be ran in the feed line and not return. The continental ethanol content sensors have a 3/8" ID and not 5/16". This is why they are ran on the return line directly in conjunction with a low threshold sampling value VS in the feed with one of these blocks.    Haha we think alike, I used both original feed/return for 8AN feed, and one of the Hicas lines as a 6AN return. I also capped off and left the other Hicas line as a spare. 
    • Interesting, I haven't read about the issue with oil getting into the speedo in the cluster before. I'll have to take more notice with mine. The speedo on my R32's when I've run factory diff and tyre size have never been accurate as far as I can remember. The non Type-M GTS-t did come with 15" 5 stud wheels and smaller brakes, but that's less than 5% of them.
    • Good to hear the condenser you picked up off my brother worked all good. Do you think there could be an issue with your AC compressor itself or the clutch on it then? I don't know a lot about them so I can't really help but keen to hear what it ends up being. Keep the build thread going man, it's nice to look back on over time.
    • This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.
