My Skyline GTR's Day at the drags. Slow connectins ouch.

Bollocks#999 · May 26, 2003

that makes it even more impressive 👍

...And i know how expensive these cars are, especially over here
Drove an R34 V-spec over here and the price on the window is $95,000AUS, then modding it after that would be very expensive

i tried looking for the companies on the skyline....nismo is no help since there are tons of cars with nismo stickers....bridgestone is no help and i cant find anyhtink for MOVE or whatever that company is..

Bollocks#999 · May 26, 2003

what a right b!tch that is
tried any of the other aftermarket places? eg.Trust, HKS, Blitz etc

skylineGTR_guy · May 26, 2003

still looking.....I wish I remember where I got the pics from....

Shinez · May 27, 2003

Man Razor

....tons of props to you man, envy level just rose from a 7 to an 8.5 :banghead:

I SHALL GET ONE! Within the next year or so, i'll be doin the same, except 100%RWD

Shinez · May 27, 2003

P.S. Should I invest in a neckbrace?

skylineGTR_guy · May 27, 2003

well from the pictures I guess you should

RazorGTR · May 27, 2003

I've got only a few aftermarket bits on the car. Turst Exhaust system, boost controller, trust pods and a chipped ecu. I recently put a huge front mount on but have not ran it yet as I am waiting for the next tune to be done. Should see about 363hp at all four wheels which would be over the 450hp mark at the crank.

I've got some more bits on the way though. hks 2530 turbos, 650cc injectors, cams, head work and will see what it will do before it goes bang. I should be able to push 550hp for a short time before the factory pistons die. Then it is major upgrade time and when it is done 550hp at the wheels

Bollocks#999 · May 28, 2003

👍 its gettin further away from the daily driver there dude

soon you'll be challenging Reece for the title

mines at a 10......he owns a freakin skyline...what more can you ask of a man?

Shinez · May 28, 2003

African American heritage for one!!...And then...if the Skyline has ostrich leather...and then....run's negative 2's in the 1'4...It rips a hole in space and time and finishes the race before it starts....

Hahahah I highly doubt that! Considering his R already runs mid 8's and they have a budget just for that car which is twice my annual salery.

It will always be a street car unless the lotto gods shine on me, and even then would prolly bring another R32 just to make into a drag car.

Jesus Christ :eek:

...wish i had that kind of money

Shinez · May 29, 2003

I'm just wondering...What would be the opproximate cost of getting say a R33 or R34 shipped from japan in 3 shipments...So it would therefore be considered a Kit car...Meaning it could be legally registered in the US for 1 year..That leaves you 1 year to tune it to US specs....To wrekk it and get a salved title.

By Reece do you mean the Croyden GTR?

He blew his engine recently. A lot of $$$ gone down the drain there.

Shinez · May 29, 2003

What happened to Exvitermini's Skyline? Are they still tuning it or are they done with it....

Cobraboy · May 29, 2003

I'm not sure. After reading his site a few days ago, it seems as though he still wants to continue with it, but the $$$ is the problem. If he want to get any faster, it's going to cost heaps, and hes been quite sick recently.

Shinez · May 29, 2003

Oh he has.....I havn't read much on the site as of late....I still think that's one of the best dynometer movies i've seen to date...It's funny how you don't realize how close it is to sliding off all 4 rollers untill he lets off the gas

Cobraboy · May 29, 2003

The one named 852r33?

I reckon, when those tubos kick in, :drool:

skylineGTR_guy · May 29, 2003

yeah I love that site...learned tons from it too..

No Reece Megreggor, Heat Treatments white R32 drag car.

also Croydon's didn't blow the motor. The only things hurt that needed replacing was the plenum and the bonnet. The motor is fine.

Doubt you would get away with it, since the transport industry and governments know what a skyline is due to MotoRex's business.

Ah x2.

Cobraboy · Jun 1, 2003

Is this a GTR? I can't tell. But it was the fastest car at the Flyen Boyz Inc Charity Drag day today.

His time: My digital cameras digital zoom isnt the best.

...Just keep refreshing, they should show up sooner or later..
