Okay, serious thread...

Since the other thread went to crap, and started out crap, as a matter of fact, I figured I'd start this thread to share with you guys what happened yesterday, here in AZ, at the mini car-show we have here at the Pavillions.

Met-up with Dan (ac427cpe), and Jack (fallenprnce), and checked-out Jack's new (to him :)) Skyline. Jack's S2000 was there also, driven by Dan.

I must say, that car was absolutely beautiful, especially in person. The stock suede Recaros are schweet.

Anyhow, I posted it in the other thread, but here's my "Skyline pose", lol:

I'll let Dan post the other pics :).

Ooops, almost forgot...that's Jack's 310WHP 2004 S2000 next to the Skyline, lol.

i only took a couple good ones, you've seen one from that day, and here are the other 2. this was the most badass cop i think i've ever met.

former skyline owner as well... :D

320rwhp ;)

it was recently re-dynoed

Sounds like your meet was more fun than ours lastnight... Pretty sweet.

Can't wait to make a trip out to AZ for a Pavillions meet. :p

320rwhp ;)

Ah...ok. You need to keep me updated on these things, dammit. :p

whats the R32 making? And which is faster, his S2K or the sky

i'm probrably gonna bet on the skyline since the skyline dynos close to 270whp stock, and that one is lightly modded so close to 400whp should be expected. and the R32 is lighter then the u.s spec evo 8. so its only 400lbs heavier then the S2000. the GT-R should hook up better off the line and continue to pull on the topend since it has a good amount more hp.

The motor is from an R34, with about 10K miles on it. http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/images/smilies/grinno.gif

The strongest version RB26 (dynoe'd 350WHP in the UK, stock), in the lightest body Skyline - you do the math. http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/images/smilies/naughty.gif

350whp stock? holy shit.

edit:
i know that this particular car was not bought by motorex. how did he get it through customs and how much did he pay? i've been tryin to save up for that car for the longest time. since they sell in japan for around 10-15K used. and if there is no middle man, i'm sure it will still cost only around 20K instead of the 35K that motorex is charging.

So not only does he have an R32 hes got one with an R34 motor...I hate him even more :icon16:

the r32 should have 300-330 hp

we haven't put the cars head to head yet, but the s2k is a lot more responsive

oh well, it's being taken to the shop this next week, upgrades + dyno tuning, you guys'll have a dyno sheet soon.

That is so awesome.

Would you guys mind if I came down for a visit sometime eh?

Bleh skyline this skyline that.....last time I checked they were getting spanked by tofu delivery corrolas in japan. :biggrin:

I'm insanely envious right now. Damn you and your fastness. Damn you.

dan is that GT-R yours or your friends?

hey thats you standing next to the skyline carrrnut?

hey thats you standing next to the skyline carrrnut?

Yep. :)

That is one gorgeous Skyline! Kudos my friend, very handsome car!

:thumbsup:

:bigthumb:

:smokin:

meh. That car sucks. I could beat it with a Yugo.













hehe.



Looks good. I am so glad it made it there with as little damage as it did. In the next few days he will have the rest of his goodies such as the center caps etc, making the car a little more complete.

For all you haters out there who say it can't be done, wake up for a quick reality check. This is the year 2004, and you should expect to see many more cards like this in your midsts. If you have cold hard cash, feel free to contact me. :grinno: If you need a loan, please call the bank first.

And to all the guys out there who helped set this up, thanks a billion. Hopefully I will be seeing a few of you in the states here soon.

If any of you are lucky enough to meet the man who owns this particular car, trust me respect is due. He is a better person than us all. Thanks for the opportunity, Jack. You have helped me more than you realize.
