yeah got a meet at WSID on the 16th Dec. best so far is 9.97 @ 139 MPH last 10 runs have all been within a 10th of a second. 60' best is a crazy 1.41.

but id trade everything ive done for a sub 1min at Tsukuba in a heartbeat.

Oh my god, that's f**kin TUFF! :) excellent driving... your downshifts are awesome to watch... what sort of gearset does the car have?

it's a ppg gearbox, and mark's bloody good at the changes, really shits me :ermm:

here is a vid of the pre race day when we were having bad handling issues, watch the end mark has a huge moment at about 180kays! hehe

1.41 is crazy, constant nine's is killer mate hats off to you, good to hear your still racing.

good luck on the 16th too!

As others have said, great effort. In my eyes the most impressive thing is the amount of work/time/effort you have put into the car getting it to where it is...Great to see some support by the likes of Hi-Octane etc...but the work you peboth personally put into the car!..not simply buying an uber built car. So envious that you guys have got to go through the build process yourselves. ;)

Top work and cant wait to see what happens to the other GTRs in the stable.

PS...if you ever tire of track stuff i will swap you my POS GTSt which is perfect for throwing sideways into tyre barriers for any of the GTRs :)

    • Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers    
    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
