lol, what a Boat! :whistling:

The camera car though..... sounds and goes the goods. Supra by the sounds?

i highly doubt the camera car for an official testing of a Nissan Autech special edition car commemorating 40 years of GTRs would be a supra...

Where does it say it's an official testing vid? No way in hell Nissan would release that as their official footage, it looks like it handles like a bath full of water.

My guess on the camera car is Nismo 400R...

Taken at a Skyline festival a couple of weeks ago:

So beautiful but have been totally put off these financially as they arent even a BCNR. Its just a GTS-4 ECR Chassis dressed up by Autech with GTR gear(AFAIK and have found to believe, Let me know if you know something iron?). And seeing as i dont like my cars to look stock i dont really want something i cant or shouldnt change around much when if i really wanted to have a 4 door GTR i could build one and build it my way with the only thing getting between the real deal and a project being the fact Autech name it a GTR and therefore it is a GTR. Not worth it. That and my ideas have matured beyond fantasies of a car that is very much a let down as this car is. Wouldnt mind a GTS-4 converted to GTR gear with custom widebody guards but that is not a project in mind at least right now.

And whats your point? Do you have any idea how much these cars cost in Japan let alone the importing costs on top? Not hard to swap 33 GTR guards over on the front and fabricate rear guards that look better than stock.

I'm not a body expert by any means, but would the fact that the doors would need to be flared affect the cost of flaring the rears substantially?

Well a GTS-4 4 door is non turbo so you would need turbo engine,gearbox,diff,brakes etc etc. But 4 doors are worth bugger all in this country. Somewhat trickier to find a gts-4 for sale but it wont cost much when you do. In regards to fabricating guards, it can be done fairly easily with good results.

Sorry sir, here is my thread about that thread ahaha http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/374422-wicked-widebody-r33-4-door/page__fromsearch__1

But yeah, there was a GTS-4 with GTR front and rear guards, R34 6 speed gearbox, RB26,GTR brakes. Pretty much the works. In white. Brisbane area for 15k.

This was maybe a year or so ago.

      I remember the days when E85 was priced in according to the $ per km outcome. Sure E85 was about 35% cheaper, but you also lost about 35% range... now it's fked..

      A little PU bush story

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      They do. The pale yellow translucent ones from Japan were .... I dunno. Useless? Whiteline and SuperPro are probably fairly similar. There's bound to be a range of different hardnesses amongst the dozens of options on the market. The simple fact is that the pineapples don't get up inside the bush at all. They just sort of exist in the space between the washer/bracket and the subframe's bush outer tube, and...exert a bit of force between them? Or something like that. I'm sure that with enough provocation, they will simply allow one to more wrt the other.

      I'm not sure they came in different hardnesses? Going from memory only - I had set them up in the balanced setup. I also have poly bushes, so I have both poly bushes and pineapples. This is what my memory tells me at least. I'll have to take a look under there to be sure. The tramp was so bad that I managed to eject/kill a diff bushing, so those I know are stock. The tramp is bad enough that you are 200% sure you are doing severe damage to the car. It's not just chirping or vibration, it feels like you're hitting a speed hump/kerb 10 times a second. The issue has persisted between subframes! (I went from Hicas to non hicas subframe and replaced every bush a few years ago now) so I'm entirely lost. Every arm is factory.

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By Butters · Posted

      Can recommend the Frenchys kit, been using it 2 years now with no issue, very happy with it.  Only thing for me was upgrading the thermo fan but I am super fussy on cooling.   Also interested in electric AC, partly for boot mount to have a clean bay and partly would love the idea of cooling off the car before i get in. The battery setup to do that might be tricky / expensive though.  Found this an interesting watch.

      I put Whiteline pineapples in my old 33, they came in a 6 pack of them, got rid of the axle tramp altogether, cheap, quick and easy install,  they were pretty solid units though...???high durometer???? and NVH was increased a fair bit How hard are the ones you installed?
