Hi guys my wedding is coming up on Saturday 17th of November & I would like to get 3 big horsepower GTR's to drive from my place in Kingsgrove to leichhardt church with 1-2 passengers & get some photos taken at the church. You will only be needed for 2-3 hours & we can come to an agreement in PM about payment.

For anyone intererested these are the cars I'm looking for;

- 1 r32 GTR

- 1 r34 GTR

- & either another r32 or r35

Thanks in advance & you're more than welcome to put on a little show if you want haha.

I would be happy to get an r32, r33 & r34 but the the others I prefer thats all. I'm looking for cars with about 500hp that have the looks to go with it.

Things I'm not looking for are cars with fancy colours eg. pink paintwork, big chromies or bodykits that wreck the image of the car (No offence to people into that sort of stuff it's just I'm not :),

The price I have in my head to thank the guys that are willing to come down I think is good for the time they are required & obviously they wont be driving for anywhere near 2-3 hours.

you may get more replies if you lower your requirement for 'big hp'.. pardon my ignorance but unless you are exchanging rings on a dyno or having your reception at WSID, why would hp matter?

Hi ecl

I see your point, the power figure I mentioned doesnt have to be met to the exact figure, a 300kw gtr is ample power :) but I would like a GTR that is well maintained & makes some decent power for my wedding.

You have an r35 gtr so you're already close enough to that figure :action-smiley-069:

i doubt any gtr owner is going to be ripping burn outs "for your wedding" for a couple hundred bucks haha

just get something with a loud exhaust and cam timing and itll sound like anything you can imagine.

The owners can do as they please & I'm paying more than a couple of hundred dollars for their services which they are only needed for 2 hours (the cars will only be driven 30-40 mins worst case scenario).

There is very little they have to do on the day.

1 - They have to drive from my place to the church which is 20-30 mins away with abit of traffic.

2 - Some photos will more than likely be taken at the church then after the church service they are free to go as I have other cars picking us up from the church.

Honestly did not think it was going to be that hard to organise 3 clean GTR's making some decent power.

Just to be clear, you are not paying for a service, else the owners would have to be registered drivers etc. You may be shouting them a few beers :)

I think part of the problem in getting cars is your first request and the implied performance work you want done, as well as needing cars with very good paint to look the best in photo's.

Apart for being too far away and having the wrong model GTR as per your request, I only have "normal" paint, I don't want to be hassled by RTA as a wedding makes you high profile, and I certainly don't want some moron saying light it up dude. I'd say others may have similar issues.

If you don't want the cars to do performance work, then ask for 3 clean GTR's regardless of power.

PS R33 for the win.

Just going to clear things up...

I said I would like to get some big horsepower cars, it's not that much of a necessity but it's just what I wanted. I would rather 3 clean gtr's over banged up big horsepower ones.

Some guys have been nice enough to respond to me/help me out & I'd like to thank them, nothing is concrete but I appreciate their interest anyway.

PS - I do like r33's I like all GTR's, I regret leaving them out of my list :(

Mate congratulations on the big day first of all!

And all you guys giving him slack its one of the guys biggest days of his life and he wants it to be remembered hence the requiest for a LOUD and POWERFUL GTR. Mate if i had a 32 id gladly rip the 4WD fuse out and light the entire street gutter to gutter for you :thumbsup:, unfortunately with a 34 im pretty useless and can only sit there looking pretty reving out of dropped pipes lol..

Haha finally someone understands & thankyou, it will be a big day indeed, probably not as big as my bucks in vegas lol.

Congrats on the wedding Stephen.

everyman with a 33 is out to get me :whoops:

Thank you matt

Sure Sure, no one loves the lady with the hips.

Best of luck with the big day and the rest of your life. Just remember where the skyline comes in the priorities :)

They all need loving ;)

I'll start looking for another r32GTR vspecII for myself mid next year once things settle down. This one will be for keeps so I will take my time. I also want to get more active within the community.

I signed up for my membership on here last monday, still waiting not sure how long it takes?

Thanks for the kind words & don't worry I make it very clear where the skyline will stand when I get another haha.

@ MsR - Thankyou for the offer I'll get back to you if I need another :)

    • I know you don't want to hear this comment, but I can't not say it.  I just can't see 200kw being worth the time and effort. Its like guys with NA cars, putting in headers/exhaust/tune for a massive 20% jump in power. Great, the slow car is still slow and you're down $10,000.  My vote is leave it NA or price in a gearbox upgrade and shoot for at least 300KW, preferably 350KW+.  Now you have a NC that will try to kill you from time to time and will be exciting to drive
    • Ah yep. The main message I want to pass on is, try not to get scared of ghosts when thinking about knock/knock detection.  What I mean is, healthy engines make noise. Knock is also noise. Your knock sensor and ECU combo are trying to determine bad noise from good noise based on how loud the noise is. The factory knock sensors and ECU are not good at doing this.  Modern ECU's are pretty decent at it, however I'd still say that you would want to verify that if your ECU says it's knock, that you actually listen to it and confirm that it is correct.  Are you familiar with the plex knock monitor?  https://www.plex-tuning.com/products/plex-knock-monitor-v3/ I expect you're the type of person that would be very keen to play with something like this. It is great knock detection and you can pop some headphones on and listen to what's going on.  Knock that you've deliberately induced in low load low RPM areas is not really putting anything at risk and is a great tuning/learning/verification tool.  I just thought this was worth mentioning based on the way you were talking about setting up a base map and the Haltech base map settings. There are better ways to spend your time then chasing ghosts and worrying about detonation in scenarios that it is crazy unlikely to encounter it.  I was also wondering, what ECU are you planning to get? Will it be long til you pick it up?
    • This came quicker than I thought. It ain't even 2025 yet.
    • I somehow quoted my post instead of editing it. I regret nothing.
    • STOP GOOGLING FAB9 MAKE BORG WARNER EFR KITS FOR THE NC. THEY PACKAGE AN EFR 6758. DO NOTHING ELSE. CAPS INTENTIONAL. THE BEST RESPONSIVE SETUP EXISTS FOR YOUR CAR, AND HAS BEEN PROVEN FOR QUITE SOME TIME NOW. IN B4 "BUT I WANT EVEN MORE RESPONSE, IN A SIMPLER, MORE RELIABLE PACKAGE" WHICH IS A LS.
