Mike- The Mines car is the fastest Skyline in the street class, but is miles and miles slower than the tuner class time attack cars over there.

No, as its knocks out the speedo too, so it looks like you doing 200mph when you not.

I just read that post on the GTR forum.

What amazes me isn't the nonsense that Mr Mycroft is posting, but the fact that the gormless muppets on there accept it without hesitation as gospel.

The Jap lot really are a country mile behind most!

Tuner class doesn't interest me, as they have more bolt on wings than one of those stupid vans . They also have several hundred more horsepower but are only 2-3s a lap faster . The Mines car is PROPERLY sorted IMO, and would do me fine .

Now where can I find photos of that Mines car?

Is there video footage of the crazy Evo doing a 53s lap .

Rich- Thick as shit mate, some are learning, but most still take anything their tuner tells them (while charging them 30k for a badly running torqueless race fueled POS) as gospel.

Mike, regarding lap times...

At Tsukuba the Mines car does a 58.3sec lap.
The fastest GTR is the Garage Saurus one which does 56.5s.

At Fuji the Mines car does 1min 50.6sec lap.
The fastest GTR is the ATTKD one which does 1min 46.2secs.

Both the fastest are R32GTRs too.

The fastest SR20 powered RWD S14 and S15s lap the circuits at almost identical times to the Mines car.

I like this one! When an F1 driver says its a monster.... you listen up!

http://www.kismo.dk/sider/Nams%20GTR.htm

But Mikes right, the Mines car is FAST as you ever need go and subtle with it. should be super reliable as well... well proven and simple understressed engine spec and standard gearbox!

Mine's is the daddy, it's made with balance and response in mind. It must have a beautiful power curve. Lapping 58 seconds on Tsukuba, a car made for the streets.

thats pretty f*cking impressive, a rwd car being as quick as an all single all dancing 4wd car

would love to own an s14 or s15, for a bit of rwd fun, but they seem to have been ruined by the drifting craze as insurance is ludicrously expensive on them now....and they are proper expensive to go over 300bhp (so i heard?)
