You are right. The bushing was worn out. You see the car was at a dealer's place for about 18 mths before it was purchased (it was imported when Malaysia was having its worst economic slum). The heat must have taken its toll on the bushing. Added to that the 375rwhp and the fact that I drive like a grandmother, the car spun in a fast corner. As I am a track junkie, I changed the whole suspension set up.

Told you not to change a thing on that BEAST! Those rims look awesome on your car. Now get off the computer and go kick some Ferrari butt

By the way a few month ago I posted a pick of your car on another car board, that judges cars, and out of 400 cars yours was number one on that site too.

I am going to go with the exact same theme for my 240Sx when I build my car. I will not be able to get 600hp out of it, but I'll try to get close. Can you get me the paint code for your car? It looks to be a 2 stage. Thanks, Tony.

Sky, you must be my car biggest junkie! Thanks mate.
The rims always attract comments, whether pros or cons. It looks like they are going to be there for quite a while unless my friend find something really special in Japan - a lot of second hand rims going for a song there and he has good contacts there. BTW, if you need any parts tell me so, I can ask this friend of mine to find bargains in Japan.
I am excited with your oncoming project on your new toy. That car is awesome and you will be surprised at the amount of power in can churn out. One of the tuner over here is running that car with 400 rwhp on a Dynojet with a HKS turbo and it is his daily driver! Lighter than a GTR, that car would kick my GTR's ass around the track I think!
I have no freakin' clue as to the colour code and will try to find it out for you. But you know, the Standox colours I was talking about before are still IMHO the best!

There's a thread on www.freshalloy.com that lists the color codes for the GTR. Also, I can find damn good deals on GTR gear as I am also in Japan.....For example, I'm helping Sami pick up a pair of HKS GT2530's for 2600. If you're in the US, those guys are going to dig deep in those pockets!

Thanks guys.

Yeah, the middle man has a way of bending you over, if you know what I mean.

Is that a stock GTR color?

Mine is not stock. It was wine red in stock form. Later it was repainted to the current one. Will try to find out the colour code.

Awesome, man!!!!! It's good to see you get recognized for the work you put in your car!

BTW, you should totally have your car as your avatar, not that white one!
