So guess what everyone is saying is that I basically wasted my money on developing the soon to be patented "GT-R stealth power install".

As the grid marshall said at Wanneroo the other week "He'll never keep up with that Westfield". Fk it I was a second a lap faster than him. Who would have thought you needed a shopping list of manufacturers plasted all over your Nissan to get some respect. :(

It came like that from the factory, occifer.

Have you tired of me telling you how much i love your R33. I remember years back at my old job i use to sit at my computer staring at pics of it and wishing i had it. The old owner had a pretty decent website covering the build of it back in the day....please bring it to Vic Dutton. :)

Awesome cars guys... i think i need a change to circuit racing... just cant afford it though... have to wait till i get a bit older and more financial, for now drag racing is the biz, sponsors are a big help :)

cool, sounds good. yeah that white saurus built car is lovely. still street driven too. I even had a little play with him as we were both driving back along the freeway towards tokyo! Saurus build some awesome cars and their work is very high quality.

First was the 200SX

Sold the GT-R to buy a house...

Then inspite of searching for another S14 or GTSt I ended buying an RX7 and it should hit the track at the end of the year

post-31523-1185154932_thumb.jpgHere is an example of a WA Skyline that goes pretty well.

Same story with the dollar spend...nice small house in the country comes to mind though.

Yes but your Skyline does really GO Evan!!

But, we all wanna see the "special" car you're building......read we all wanna drool over the car that looks like an S13 :):sleep::w00t:

Great thread and cars guys!

I took my V35 out on the track about a month or so ago, and have since decided that trying to squeeze quick times out of it will involve mega dollars.

So being inspired from this thread, I've decided that I'm gonna look into getting a dedicated R32 track car.

Now I just have to tell the "Director of Funds Allocated to Spending On Cars"

    • Just wanted to pop in an update on my setup. The CD swap has been great, I love the mazworks housing for the overall simplicity. I ended up sealing my trans tunnel with a thin sheet of aluminum reused some of the holes on the trans tunnel, and laid some window sealing EPS foam around the edges. Works great, really quieted things down and sealed up the car.  As for the power comment. Right now I am also running about 650whp. with the way the bell housing is attached to the face of the transmission I have zero doubts it would be fine, mainly because the input shaft and main shaft bearings are seated into the bell housing adapter. This means the load is NOT on the bolts to maintain the power, rather into he casing of the bell housing; Yes the bolts are doing some work there, but with both shafts locked in zero worries.  End of the day, the Mazworks solution is the easiest and safest. no need to take your trans to a shop to get milled perfectly, it fits with minimal clearancing, and you can use all your existing clutch and flywheel.  Driving wise the CD has been great compared to the big box, I'll probably swap my final drive at some point. The serial 9 shifter is gooooood, my only qualm is how tight it is, it takes a fair bit to get use to, 5th and 6th are a bit eh/hard to find at times, but maybe I need re-adjusting, and I think my clutch master is very tired and needs a rebuild. 
    • If you are keen, have a look at my build thread. Car is for sale for the right money or straight swap for a F80 M3 LCI.
    • Welcome mate.  No point in over thinking it, buying any one of those cars you mentioned is not a smart or logical choice with the availability of many "better" (re price to performance) cars available to you.  The heart wants what the heart wants, buy whatever it leads you too.
    • Hey everyone! Im so grateful to be apart of this community and ill do my best to be apart of this. Firstly, i'm not disclosing my real name due to in real life circumstances surrounding my privacy and public image (sorry lol) Secondly, The only thing personal I am willing to share is that I'm from Sydney and a descendant of one of Sydneys largest mortgage firms. I got gifted my first ever car, a 2022 Porsche Cayenne and I love it to death. Ive been driving it for about 5 or 6 months now and honestly Im so grateful for my parents for gifting me this vehicle. However recently I've been working my ass off to afford my second car (which I need help deciding soooooo community help me out please?). Once decided, im planning to try modify it myself. Recent I've been thinking about getting a Skyline, particularly a 25GT or GT-V, yes I know overrated as hell, but I'm also considering a Chaser which I recently came to love. However my dream is to one day own a 180SX (So hard to find clean versions and im not really into importing).  Lastly before I send this off, I want to apologize if I sound tacky or pretentious. I try not to and want to genuinely learn from everyone and anyone. (Im no expert in this area) Thanks for reading!
