Well she's detailed and she's home. And even an amateur photographer can't go wrong in this light. ...whilst waiting for wifey to come out and do shopping.

Got the car back yesterday. Took a pic to celebrate.

Hard to see the dirt on white cars , especially in pics.

Since I have had my GTR and looking at lots of pics I really like how white Rs look in all the models and with other benefits , cooler and does not look dirty after 5 minutes of being washed, haha

When I bought mine, it was an on the spot thing, not because I liked how it looked, it was the hype that surrounded them over the years :)

BUT I love the way they look now, well except for the inside. Maybe its just the colour, the seats are comfortable. Maybe when I get it back I might have a look at what I can do about the trim ?

Yeah, can see you in the engine bay shot

You can get spray on tint for indicators and tail lights, not really legal but would make the side indicator stand out less

I have never looked better :whistling:

HAHA, you are supposed to see the indicators/tail lights that is there function :woot: I know what you mean :yes:

Thanks Pete, I know what you mean about black cars, but when they are clean they do look good. I nearly ended up buying a black 34 before i got mine.

I've always loved BNR34's so it was a no brainer for me, just love the way they look and i really like the interior as well. But each to their own :)

Your car's performance is going to be seriously impressive when your build is finished, look forward to seeing dyno sheets.

I look forward to just seeing my car again,haha

When I first saw the car inside it just about killed the sale, but it had been sitting in a garage for 5 years and I think it just came into the sales yard but it cleaned up OK and is in very good condition, Except the MDF, the screen is stuffed, it works but the film has melted or whatever happens to them. It just looks sad and needs cheering up a bit and not sure if I want to start as I get carried away.

shat, I am an upholsterer, good thing I retired,haha

      JDM R35 Bought at Japanese Auction

      By 70RTY · Posted

      Hi all,   I have bought a JDM R35 at auction in Japan.  This is my second JDM GTR after owning one back in 2009.  I have made a couple of videos that may interest some forum members.  One is collecting the GTR from the compliance shop (and seeing it for the first time) and another on the process of buying and importing a car from Japan.  I'm new to this and would appreciate your thoughts, as well as a subscribe!

      Oh, yeah, no arguing that the duty cycle is different. And a circuit car will go to those speeds for more distance and longer times. But, I suspect that if a tailshaft has a harmonic problem, that it would cause damage and shit itself maybe even on the first pass. A second or two of running at the resonant/harmonic problem speed is already a couple hundred revolutions.

      Shaft speed would be the same, however it's how long they hold it there for and repeated conditions. FWIW half way down the main straight at SMSP I'm bouncing off 4th with a 8600RPM limiter. That shaft would be spinning at 8600RPM for a few seconds before I need to smash the brakes, by T2 it's getting close to that speed again. Now a drag car/roll race car would see that shaft speed for a 1 to 2 secs then they would coast, hit the brakes and that's it.

      With same diff ratio, tyre diameter and road speed, the tailshaft rpm is the same regardless of the gearbag's ratio. Given that very quick drag cars are probably doing similar road speeds to the fastest circuit cars (circa 300 km/h), and there will be many of either category that can't go that fast and so you'd have inummerable matchups between drag and circuit car speeds at smaller numbers, and given that they are probably using rather similar tyre diameters and probably using similar diff ratios, and...where any of those numbers were different they could quite easily be in opposite directions thus cancelling out.... I think you'd find that there'd be more similarity than difference in tailshaft speed between these two use cases, no?
