And how come no one's made any comments on the pic that Ghostrider posted above of the black '31 ?

Check these babies out!! :)  :bahaha:

I didn't look because it was a 31.

it's hard to tell with those wheels being black, but they could very well turn out to look like this... (lets see if I got the manage attachments thing right!)

This is a very interesting post.

It's now a fortnight later, since the last thread and still nothing, even for a keyboard socialist like R30 Julie, I would think once in 14 days she would see her PC in operation, like even if just to check emails.

Come on Julie, we are all hangin to see this most rare example you claim to have, if it is as you say, please supply us with some picture evidence.

After all, you did ask for our help finding you a wheel, but even with it on blocks the pic will settle all of our thoughts.

You claim to have pics, if they are prints, get them scanned into a PC somewhere and let us see, any computer cafe will have the tools to do this, or a computer shop would be next if you don't have access to a digital camera.

Let's see what you have got!

What an interesting thread... all you guys seem to be tripping over yourselves to get a look at Julie's car that would more than likely turn out to be something we have all seen before.

On the off chance that it is in fact something unusual i would be very interested in seeing it, and the import papers for it if they are still around.

I have the original import papers for mine when it was imported in Sydney close to 15years ago (i think, haven't looked at them for a while) and i can happily say that mine is one of the first six imported into Aust and have had it for many years now and have done more than enough homework on R30's to know that there was never a GTR version.... mine is a 'GT' version and for Julie to have a 'racing' version would be a very rare thing to find here in Australia as the Japanese would be some what reluctant to let something like a GTR R30 out of the country as mad as they are..

We're not calling you a liar Julie, it's just that we are skeptical of what you may, or may not have there... :)

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
