So, i made the jump , and after the RX-8 died on me, i decided to sell the shell and invest in another car in hopes that it could make me fall in love the way the -8 did. Enter the Nissan Skyline GTR. After a week of high stress, calling banks, currency exchange offices, getting my fiance and i our passports ( had to buy in canada since its not legal in the states yet) I finally have another car that gets me going.

Unfortunately, i have yet to find a community as knowledgeable and active as this one to start my journey in upgrades and building, so for now i figured i would share the move to another dream with the community that made me an addict to car forums and learning about cars.

That being said, i have also joined at sau.com.au to try and make some new friends more skyline oriented , but hope to still be able to draw from this community for some ideas.

My goals are to hit around 400-450whp maintaining a twin turbo setup. potential E85 conversion, but i must say i am nowhere near well versed enough to make that decision at the moment, i have only seen what it does to dyno numbers (woof). Feel free to throw out any suggestions for the build, im in research phases right now and appreciate any type of insight for quality parts.

 

Been a while. I was wondering what happened.

Pics or it didn't.

What's left from the 8?

Haha let me get to a computer and I will throw up some pictures. And nothing is left of the eight I sold it all to a buddy who was attempting to rebuild it so at least she will ride again just not by me.

Not sure how much more proof i could give Williard (;
