It has held up really well, its amazing the people who think its a new model year...ive owned this one about 5 years, bought it from the original owner...a doctor who used it exclusively as a track car...makes about 480 to the rear wheels...he spent big money having the engine rebuilt from the block up just before i purchased it...body only has 43000 miles on it...

Hell yeah! I need to get my Stangs back out and do something with them, but the bike fills my need for speed for the moment.

There is nothing like turbos spooling up and launching you...

I was looking into bigger turbos, but it seemed like people who go that way end up with more overheating problems...and honestly it doesnt need more power...its already on the edge of undrivable as far as city stuff...i run 8-10 lbs per turbo...20lbs is plenty of boost for anything im gonna do with it...

I have a Nissan 720 pickup that is eventually going to be bagged and dragged that I want to put a 240 motor with a turbo in.

Cool! That's called a Fairlady Z here. Not many sell, as we have the Skyline GT-Rs.

I have all the fairlady z emblems and stuff for on it...just havent gotten there yet...
Ive got the brake upgrade on this to the r-33 calipers and whatnot...so she stops a little better...id love an r-34 skyline...but the new gt-r is a little souless feeling to me...i drove one at a track day and while it a beautiful well made crazy fast car...it was just missing something:/

When younger, my buddy had a red "hako-gata" (squared) coupe, and another had the "B-type" in white. But that was almost 40 years ago. 1970 GT-R: link1964 Prince Skyline B-Type is the white one at the top of the page: linkThose old cars bring back a bunch of memories. One of the most impressive cars of that era, but really ugly, was the Mazda Capella. Little car the size of a Corolla, but with their first-generation rotary from the Cosmo Coupe crammed in. No top-end, but around town would blow off anything on the road. Mitsubishi made some nice cars back then, too! |
