Before reading this story, everybody should know that this and theses stories are fictive. None of this is part of my real life. At least, trademarks are real and I give them credits. Sorry for the bad english, I'mma french Canadian :D

Me and my garage been throught a big rush this summer tuning alot of cars here in Los Angeles. Customers were asking alot and I'm not blaming them, but now I want to relax and do my thangs. So I was talking with the guys in the garage, drinking a beer, big doors open, watching the girls, as I decided to make a little project car. First and foremost, I've been making phone calls to the importers to see what cool import car I should buy to make a big project of it. I called Mike from RB Motoring, an importer in Long Beach who is a big Skyline importer for the US. He told me that a freshly imported R32 was cleared from the inspections and was now on sale. It was a 1991 R32 GT-R with a RB26DETT engine. So I decided to drop off to Long Beach the same day to take a look on it. First thing I saw was the little brownish paint of the Nismo R32 S-tune. I LIKED IT !!!! Took a look around, no bodywork needed but needed new coil-overs in the back. 92966.2 km on the odometer. The interior was a little torn up because the Japan owner wanted to make a tuned car of it and started to get rid of the interior to make some ''weight reduction''. Mike first told me that the car was 20,000$... I told him ''come on we are friends''. Final price: 15,784$
Before I go sign the papers, I decided to try it. I saw the ATTENZA system was installed on it. The ATTENZA system is a controller that can transfer more power on the front wheels or full power on the rear wheels. I decided to make some fun and transfered everything in the rear done a burnout right in the parking lot... So after some fun laying down rubber, I signed the paper and hitted the highway back home to L.A.

Arrived to home it was 2 am because I stopped at some friends house to show them what I bought, I decided to jump on the dyno. First attempt, the engine was locked so I couldn't know the total power... I had 276HP with the engine lock. Taking 2 other hours to hack the ECU, second attempt: Total power of 304HP at 6800 rpm with a torque of 288.03ft.lb at 4400 rpm. After that, sleeeeeeping time...

The next day I drove to Infineon Raceway to try the car on the track. I was impressed of the performances of the car in its stock form. Done 2 laps and had a phone call from the garage, the brother had blown is engine and I had to order another one for him, so I gone back to L.A. I decided to call one of my HKS contacts here in L.A., asking him whats new in and to order some parts. First ordered a polished ports kit, a engine balancing kit, UP displacement kit and a ECU chip. I ordered these parts first because I wanted to rebuild the entire engine to make sure there is not a single bad thing...

Three days later, the engine of the 1991 Nissan Skyline GT-R R32 is completely redone. The parts was installed and I pulled 355HP on the dyno. The entire engine is now ready for the big bomb. Freshly arrived from HKS, 2 brand new GT3037S ball-bearing stage 4 turbos (twin-turbo kit), an intercooler kit and a shiny high-power exhaust system. Plus a special gift from my friend Jeffrey from Nismo USA, a shiny full length Nismo exhaust line from headers to the downpipe. I also bought Nismo racing brakes and suspension. Everything arrived monday morning as I were opening my first Sprite can. Except for the custom tranny, clutch kit, flywheel and LSD, every parts were ready to be installed. Before the installation of the parts, I wanted to wait to receive the drivetrain parts, so I decided to strip the entire car. I removed the doors, the lights, the windows, EVERYTHING. The car was empty and ready for a rigidity refresh. It was 6pm when I finally I had finish with the body refresh and weight reduction. Only the roll-cage was missing and the drivetrain parts to start the entire process of tuning. I was walking around in the garage, waiting for my brother to call me back, I found a set of tyres in the back store that were supposed to be used on a S15. The tyres had the right dimension of the wheels of the Skyline, so I installed them right away.

Tuesday, no sign of drivetrain parts. I couldn't do nothing without these parts... So I called Jeffrey at Nismo USA and ask him what was the problem and anwsered me that he had it but the delivery guys was not taking my order. So I said: **** off, I'll go get it myself... I get in the truck and go take my parts at the store. Finally, I have it all... This is a total mess in the garage... Boxes, boxes, and boxes... I installed the drivetrain parts first so I could do the easiest later. 8pm, I was starting to shake and my brother was lookin at me wrong. He knew I was feeling bad but I only had a sandwich in the entire day and my body needed vitamins, it needed food. With the ratchet in the hands, I was trying to install the parts but my brother finally said: OK I order pizza, and ordered me to sit down and wait. Got stuck to wait the pizza, I ate it and got back to work quickly as I were ready to start the installation of the exhaust system and the turbo kit.

Wednesday, I was a little off the work because Duke came by with is big TSX and made some fun of me as my brother was telling him what happened to me the night before when I was shaking. So after a goodbye/burnout by Duke, I got back to work, installing the intercooler kit as it was the last engine part to install. Last parts to install was the brakes and the suspension. I asked my brother to help me with these so we could do it faster. Finally everything was installed, tomorrow was the big day because I was going to the test track.

Thursday, heading to the test track nowhere in the deserts of Cali, We made the adjustements of the electronic controllers such as the ECU, the brake controllers, the ATTENZA, etc... I finally hit the track and done 2 laps before I head to the pit. I was really impressed of the acceleration and even made a 9 second run at the 400m. I pulled 327 kph which was average so I asked the Nismo team to jack up the car and play in the gears. Back at the garage, I putted the Skyline on the dyno once again, and checked whats the final power. 724HP WOW... Great performances, but we'll see if the R32 is up tight to endure the treatement that I reserves for it, because Friday, 2hours and 45 minutes of rush at Infineon...

you laughed at mine so i laugh at yours! :lol:

i read the first part. sounds ok. i dont like these fanfics though.
 
well... theres some on the board that are pretty good, I dont think people liked mine so I dont think I will continue lol
 
everyones different. i just dont like long storys about such things. i dont read what anyone writes in this section. i've only posted in it because its you.
 
Well, I don't quite know what to do with this thread, even though I do make an appearance in it...

The Race Reports are fictionalized or dressed-up accounts of actual GT4 races. Some people just tell them like they happened and some people add color and background. I don't have anything against fan fiction; I just don't know if this is the board for it.

I would say, finish the story up if you're enjoying writing it! But I think I'm going to move it to the Rumble Strip.
