The Wasteland - ACT Style

[Sinista32]

and what are you inferring by that ???

[B-rice]

the difference between a lighter and a heavier person screwing up the center of gravity.

I assume the ridiculous paint scheme on that model is to stop people/programs being able to create a 3D model of it from photos (thereby being able to steal their aero design)?

[Anfanee]

Yep since it isn't released, makes it much harder for people. All companies do it.... Bmw M4...

[B-rice]

yh I see a lot of cars before they're released they have that paint.

[RosieR34]

Yeah the GTR is pretty crazy. Auto suspension adjusting. It also has RWD function (AWD only initiates when traction is lost this is in the 2012^ models I believe - I tried researching into this - not much is said. I notice in pre 2012 models that salesmen and reviewers were calling it an AWD but from 2012+ they started explaining the function of it's RWD/AWD a lot more indepth and openly). The balance of the car is perfect to say the least. Everything on that car was designed for a purpose.

The graphic work is to hide the aero designs before the release - I'm sure it serves multiple purposes such as 3D design work but it's mainly to hide the "look" of the car until it's released. Which is why there was a huge following when the R35 N1 was leaked a day before the Tokyo motor show - it didn't have the paint work so all lines were able to be seen.

Unreliable gadgetry. A top fueller goes 0-400 in 4 seconds, on a sht run, no traction control.

After watching that episode of Top Gear with the 959 and the F40..... that explains it perfectly; im an F40 guy, just the bare essentials, the driver is traction control and abs. Pure driving.

I wish that there were more cars that followed the F40 philosophy.

A top fueler needs a rebuild every meet, weighs half as much, has tyre 4x the size and isnt offered with a warranty

[D.I.Y. Mik]

Ok then, get a new sportbike. About $20-$30 grand.

Go as fast as your balls allow.

Why not buy a jet?

Does anyone happen to know how hard it is to get a windscreen for an R34?
Mine has a crack and i think i might get it fixed before it goes in... can i reuse the original trim or can you get those as well?

shouldnt be too hard.

I believe most of the companies can get an aftermarket one.

and they should replace the seal also.

[Sinista32]

Obriens did mine - Insurance coverd it so don't know the price.

Existing trim was re-used. No issue

[azathoth]

Yeah sweet, i assumed glass would be easy enough to find. I was more worried about the trim and a possible 10 week wait or something.
Might give them a call today.
Thanks fellahs.
