sure you are....

Holy shit your right! that is my name, but i still drive there every night :(

oh I got the sarcasm... but really there are a lot of keyboard warriors / PS3 lovers that would sh%$ it the first time they actually got airborne at the ring at 180+....

drunken is excused as he will go there I am sure :thumbsup:

nice nice nice drunken :)

I bet fatz also took in some beverages while over there!

I'm up to lap 150+ but there isnt much time for laughing!!

ben...do i smell an r35 on the horizon for you...besides you need to replace that r32 you had :)

i agree with williams & snowman, if u haven't driven the nurburgring track or any track for that matter then u cant really comment about lap times.

for instancec i used to race bikes & just sold my 06 gsxr1000 - my previous 05zx10r took me to my personal best of 1:37 around eastern creek :D

what a beast of a car though!!!

1 day i will own an r35, when they get below 80k in the 2nd hand market, so maybe i can predict this price in 5yrs times (i hope)

i was @ crd last week & i saw their white greddy promo r35 - it is a BIG fat car but beautiful at the same time

^ ahhaha, yes i noticed that too!! and then he turned it off straight away as well i think....

but really, if you're testing the thing, why not treat it like crap just to see how long it takes to break :D

My heart skips a beat every time I am airborne over 150kph.. 2 if i am not already heading directly straight.... and I have been sideways getting airborne @ 120k+.. my boxers werent so tidy whity after that... was on dirt though.. not tar.. I imagine the grip on the side that lands first would be quite a bit more intense on tar. When I did loose it like that, the last time I checked my speed I was heading over the 120 mark but that was checking to see quite how much extra braking i needed since I had not been through there quite that fast.. felt like I missed the brake point went for the brakes.. did slow down a bit, went to balance the thing as tight to the apex as I could.. way to much speed (my idiocy) slid right out the other side, of an embankment tail slightly leading me and got air of the embankment landed rear right first, allot of mud and grass later I was so godam happy I didnt die.. that moment before the embaresment of hte fact htat everyone else would soon know that I had to be dug out.

To correct myself earlier.. the record for the lemans circuit @ the ring was 5mins something.. 5:29 is what my memory and laziness from not checking the netz tells me. the last Leman's in the (late? 80's || early 90's? ??94??). That was not the same track the ring is today, the ring back then was a well maintained race track that still claimed allot of cars / drivers but was definetly smoother with a godam lemans race car.... not a production variant vehicle anything.

    • Gucci bags tend to hold their value well, so someone’s definitely going to get a nice find here.
    • @Ozdavroz Not going to get a better deal than that. Cash up front and ongoing payments. 🤑
    • I wouldn't even move it like gTSBoy is saying. I'd seriously do what Duncan is saying. Unplug the injectors, and unplug the fuel pump.  Pull the spark plugs out. Have a look in quickly with a bore scope if you want. At most, you can't spray a bit of oil into the bores so there is lubricant in there while you crank it. (Don't fill it, as it's only going to enter the exhaust, or spit at you out the spark plugs holes. Before cranking the engine on the starter, after a 5 year sit I'd probably prime the oil system manually. Easiest way to do so is to look at buying an oil filter relocation block, fit it to the engine. The pressure line going into the engine on this block you can then shove into some sort of oil pump, or put it into a bottle, with that hose going to the bottom. Fill bottle up with oil. Now seal the bottle and add a compressed air line to the top of the bottle. Feed compressed air in, about 20psi will be PLENTY. This will pump oil through the motor. Be aware, it also means it will drain back to the sump, so make sure you don't end up over filling the motor Now bolt the old oil setup back on (or fully install the remote filter system).   This way you've at least pushed fresh oil everywhere, then you're letting the motor crank to then do its own oiling. Then I'd tap the key to make sure it can start to crank, if the motor free bumps, then I'd just hit the key and let it crank. After letting it crank and seeing you can get real engine oil pressure, put new spark plugs in, reconnect the fuel system electrics, and send it.   Additionally, you can look to remove the fuel feed line to the rail, and divert it to a tank so you can get the bottom of the tank shit out, and just incase there's some crud sitting anywhere that gets passed the fuel filter (or is already ahead of it).   If fuel injection at the injectors ends up appearing to be a problem, you can dump the injectors into an ultrasonic cleaner for a quick flush clean out. Note this isn't as good as new injectors, or getting them pro cleaned and flowed    
    • All I can say is, that's still bloody awesome! No plans on caging it I'm guessing?
    • It seems you'd like your Skyline to go to a great home, that can keep it as a beautiful museum piece.  I feel I can provide the perfect place for it, however, I'm not sure I can justify so much money for a Skyline that has only been crashed 3 times. Due to this and market prices, would you be against me buying it for $100.00, with $60 to be paid upfront, and the remaining $40 to be paid annually in equal payments?
