I was totally put off the Bayside Blue R34s by this. But time heals and I ended up getting one.

It made a big impression on me though and I have shown my teenage sons these pictures. I know how easy it would be for them to "borrow" my car.

Sorry to de-rail the thread. If people don't want to see this, then moderators please remove.

RIP.

Article from the Daily Telegraph attached.

That "Nitto" v-spec II nur in spark silver is currently for sale on gtr.co.uk for 66k [pounds]!! what a car!!! The cars for sale on that forum are unbelievable. and the timeattack part of the forum is a good read, they take it pretty seriously over there!! the money they must put into these cars is nothing short of amazing...

They went all that effort to reduce weight, and then decide to use GT-C's..

Its not like GTCs weigh the earth either. When I picked up the box with one of my 19s in it, it felt like I was picking up not much more than the box

No they dont weigh a ton, but in comparison to say, RE30's, it's a world of difference when you're also talking about unsprung weight.

this is mine, got it few months ago from japan. goin thru some changes. still a little unfinished, few things left to go!

main thing i changed - wheels. new wheels r 20x10.5 -5 rear and 0 front. some ppl like some ppl dont, meh. i like it so fcuck em.

little did i know that the wheels wouldnt clear my 370mm front brakes! that issue will be fixed next few weeks i hope, then i can lower the car a bit and camber the wheels a bit :)

still to go - carbon boot fitted and nismo z tune guards, not too sure wat to do for a wing??? that do luck one looks off tap

had the engine bay tidied up, will have pics next week of it

    • Hi soviet_merlin, We appreciate your concern regarding this possibly being some sort of PR/Political hype, I assure you that is not the case, I wish we could claim something like that, but in this case, we merely reached out for comment on the basis of the outrage we too felt, as those heavily in the automotive industry. Ps. the original source in the social media post is CarExpert not CarExplore.    Best, CE.
    • Made a bit of a discovery, but while I was cruising, I randomly decided to test to see if it worked and it showed up on my IC7. The entire time I tested it before, I never thought to turn the ignition on. I only tested it with head lights turned on but with the ignition off. Huge oversight on my end. I’m a dummy. I know. 
    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much
