You guys should go to New Zealand, they are all over there.
I saw at least 5-7 skylines in 1 hour of being outside.
Damn common.

its an r-32. i saw it run at an auto-x and it was badass. I BEAT him too kinda because he has never done it before. (doesnt count i just want to say i beat a skyline).

Ahhh well i have a winning record against skylines too !! 0-0 no losses baby!!! lol

i would love to have a 34 its my dreamcar i love the framestyle and everything about them. But when i get old and rich which is not too far from now well the old part cause i spend too much money i'll never be rich i would love to have a 350Z but for now poor broke college student a spec is all good

drift240sxdragqueen · Feb 9th, 2004, 11:43 PM

i don't think 0-0 is a winning record, i don't think its an even record either i just think its a fresh start

02SunnyB15 · Feb 9th, 2004, 11:46 PM

Yup they are all over New Zeland and every were else but the us.My brother has a 1,000 hp black Nur Spec 2 R34 in Japan,it's all a blur once get into it especially on highway 1, known as Wangan wich at about 2 in the morning is lit up with top end racers.Gotta go back.

Probably not, and even if I do I won't run. The engine needs to be completely retuned and I'm still waiting on some parts.

autox240, it's true I haven't done autocross before but I have lots of time in shifter karts. But the GT-R is no kart and the autocross track is not its playing field. You will never be competitive in it unless you will have much more room to roam. I never got out of second gear after the launch and the turns don't carry out enough speed to let the cars abilities to really shine. That and the driver sucks too...but on the shifter kart I've never been beaten.

I must say the new wheels with 265 BF Goodrich rubber have made a big difference, can't wait for the car to be ready so I can take it out on to Motorsports Ranch to test it out.

Well hopefully you make it out so we can at least admire the skyline and the new volks.Hope you get it all set up soon.

Sami, the wheels look good.

Did they change how it rides, can you feel more bumps? Oh, how is that wax holding up? It might be time to wax it again. If you want, I'll email you the list of stuff I use.

Yes, I feel the bumps much better now. The feel to the road was great before but now it is even better. I like the tires that came with them as well. Not much tread left but they are much better than what I had there before, AND 2cm of more width so that much needed traction as well. I'm very happy with the purchase.

As for wax, I did it again not so long time ago. Turns out those spots were dirt afterall from water, not corrosion. Thanks again for your help!

Dude Sami.... get your parts in quick get them mailed express overnight or something

i would love to see the 32 run

and i would like to run it even though i know you would dust me even if you raced me in reverse hahahahaha

it would be an honor getting raped by a skyline on the track instead of stupid 5.0's

The car is running right now, that's not the problem, just is not running right. Changed MAF's so the tuning is way off and it needs some maintenance work. Don't want to tune it until I get all my new parts in and since most of them are special order from Japan, you know it won't be anytime soon. I'm looking at 3 to 4 weeks, I hope that's not too optimistic.

I'll try to be at the track if you guys want to see the car but I won't take it out for a run.

Rathi134 · Feb 10th, 2004, 04:30 PM

that would be pretty sweet
