Terrh 11-04-2007, 08:24 AM I came across a really clean 1992 GTR at the importer and decided to pick it up.
Just got it home last night.. they're pretty awesome cars. "interesting" handling.. a ton of grip, power oversteer (unlike anything AWD I've driven before), but the 4WS feels weird if you jerk the wheel left to right or try and transition quickly. (like, say, quick back and forth lane change).
I'll post some pics later.
It looks like it'll be a project though, since as I was driving it home (about 300 miles) it started knocking.. I think it spun a rod bearing. (yeah, I'm really pissed about that).

Dude you could've gotten a FD and JDM with RHD conversion. :blah:
Indeed good pick, though.

fcdrifter13 11-19-2007, 07:17 PM Wait, are they allowing them to be imported in pieces and then assembled as a kit car to get licensed
Terrh 11-24-2007, 08:28 PM Wait, are they allowing them to be imported in pieces and then assembled as a kit car to get licensed
not in your country!
(not here either, that's ridiculous... it's just a straight up import here)
fcdrifter13 11-29-2007, 03:31 AM Fuck it im moving to canada
Cosby 11-29-2007, 11:47 AM lol, you can run it against my fd if you want to come to sc. I think you'd be pretty disappointed with the outcome though.

Manntis 12-13-2007, 03:25 PM you mean the new malibu kind of looks like it ;)
Terrh 12-14-2007, 12:42 PM someone should send me some TFL stickers...
Tofuball 12-14-2007, 12:48 PM I'd rock that on my Vanagon.
Manntis 12-14-2007, 04:03 PM make up 2 black vinyl ones the size of the Racing Beat ones and I'll add it to the sponsor decals on the side of my ERX :)

Agreed. I ran against my buddy's R32 GTS before my 7 got a tune (was only at 247whp) and stomped him pretty solidly.
I'd like to run a decently modified GT-R to see what all the fuss is about. There's a Major who works on the same base as me with an R34 GT-R, I need to corner him and get him out on the road one day =P
