I was at the tokyo motor show i got lots of pics of the gtr35. Trust me its one awsome car.

I had a look at one few weeks ago, now i have sold my r34 it is temping. but in hong kong there is just no point, to have a car.

on what...your 35 Gtr...unless you got one, its useless as tits on a bull....

So... you couldn't think of anything to do with bits and pieces from a 35 GTR other than fix another 35 GTR???

Sad....

Lets hope they put a capable driver in it...

I am always willing to give it a go.

Or not and we can bid on the destroyed car and use it's bits!!!!!

your already spending enough!!! me too

I'm hoping to see the new RS6, and plenty of skimpy clad promo girls. Isnt that what the motor show was all about????

mmmm RS6....twin turbo goodness.

mmmm promo girls.....nice boobie goodness.

well, hmm you couldnt use the head, the block, the clutch, the gearbox, the ecu

so that leaves hmmmm brakes...wheels and front mount but since its gonna be crashed..then yep well done champ you just score nothing except a bit of bent up aluminium

obviously owning an evo has unbalaned some chemicals. that's what happens when you drive a mitsubishi.

seriously, would love to be able to scavenge bits of the new gtr.

anyways, all that aside, is there anything worth while seeing at the motor show this year?

    • Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!
    • Did the noise appear after your sand trap adventure? Could be something got dislodged and is playing rub rub. Even a rock wedged somewhere.
    • Is there a shroud around the tailshaft spline into the back of the box? They can rub and make a horrible noise if they are not on straight/damaged. The heat might have caused it to grow too much in one direction and rub.
    • Strangely I noticed it either disappear later in the day, or not be present. I definitely noticed when I was crawling around that open wheel thingy entering the pits (that part was audible in car). Driving home and commuting around town for example, I didn't hear it. It's plausible that it was a brake disc or something still slightly in contact. The brakes absolutely felt BAD for the first couple of sessions, huge amounts of shudder and grinding as they got up to temp - And then I actually just forgot about it as the day went on/didn't notice it. The videos were from the morning when this was more present than the afternoon/drive home when it wasn't. I've asked around and got a variety of responses including handbrake shoe contacting hub, CV joints, CB tailshaft bearing as above, and clutch input bearing. I didn't test if it disappeared when clutch was in. I haven't noticed it in any of the other videos nor did I notice it when driving to that extent. More or less hoping the microphone at the rear license plate giving some kind of clue of 'something' but it looks like "spin stuff and see if you can notice it" is the way forward here. I could be smart and use the gopro mic and re-mount it to that location to see if the sound is still present at low speed actually. Sounds like a decent test whenver I have the CBF'ness to drive the car again. Given it's almost 40C for the day of the track day and the next 3 days after, the CBF is high. All I've done since getting home is unpack the car, remove the remnants of the lip and undertray and left it there. I was surprised how well the PMU Club Racers actually worked. The brake performance on the track was absolutely fantastic, best I've ever personally used, no fade whatsoever and the bitiness was almost too good, I was scrubbing more speed off than I needed to, but I also ended up infield when I started trying to scrape off ... less speed.... so...
    • Not really, no. Anything you would do is easily reversible.
