have you guys seen these things???

to quote the website: they run a Yamaha 1200cc four cylinder 16 valve twin-cam engine producing 125bhp with integral close ratio straight cut gear sequential dog engagement gearbox.

and they only weigh 450 kg!! :eek:

my friend's brother has just bought one...he's going up next week to get the car and some training from Phil Ward, the guy who's behind these things.

The car itself cost him around 32K, but he's looking for sponsorship...he's sent a proposal to Shell (umm yeah the company, not me :D ) to paint it up like a Shell Helix car, but hasn't heard anything yet.

apparently he will pay around $450 to race in a round. That includes his pit, and passes for his pit crew (ie mates!!) for the weekend.

His first race will be Wakefield and the end of Sept apparently.

I think I'm gonna go up and watch, these things look cool! I wanna see them on the track :D

They were on the power tour until it went under the other week, I last heard they were looking at sticking commonwhore or falcon front ends on them and supporting the supercars.

There was one running at Wakefield on the last UAS track day back in April- pretty quick little cars.

      Baron's R34 GT-R build thread - car in Japan for 5 years -_-

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      My advice is if you need a big build done do it in Japan. The yen rate is so favorable and there are shops that can be genuinely trusted and not micromanaged/carefully monitored every step of the way. Garage Yoshida is obviously my preferred option but they're so busy these days and all interaction with new customers has to be mediated through BBL/Toprank now.

      I haven't....but a poorly made one would terrify me. Surely a good second hand one is the go, as they don't work hard and no-one wants to keep one after they are finished with it A big consideration would be the weight of the shell you are putting on it....is it a fully dressed chassis or just the body

      Not stock. All remade. Mostly looks stock because the pipes run to and from the standard holes in the inner guard to get to the return flow FMIC. I'm not sure which question you're trying to ask, because it seems like "stock position" vs "stock position".

      Hey, it's a GT-R, it's just as significant a moment as mine😁 It's not ideal when things are uncertain; I'm the type of person that always has a set plan for things in life so being unsure of this plan puts me in a weird place mentally.

      Hows your intake piping? Are you still running stock? Having in the stock AFM position would mean, if the BOV was shut/venting out, it'd create the almost stalling kind of effect right // "the rich pulse behaviour" due to MAF thinking air is flowing ? But this would be better than having the bov in the stock position + MAF on/just before cross over piping right?
