I live in Japan, and the GTR rules point blank, end of discussion. So of course I drive a GTR, there is a small group of us that meet every month at Daikoku futo P.A. in Yokohama. Needless to say the drive down is always exciting, the speedo hardly ever reads below 120K, you should stop laughing. But after I go through the toll gate and skirt the edge of Yokohama, the speedo doesn't go below 160K, except for the really tight turn going on to the Yokohama Bay Bridge, then I easily bring it up to 250K as I Blast over the top . I frequent the P.A. about once a week, on the weekends you name it and its here, from Freaky to all Business, I call it the gathering of the Fast and wanna be Furious.
Wel I bought my car all stock in October 2008, except for the Kakimoto Racing Exhaust. This is what has been done thus far.
Decat
2 x AFM brand new
Nismo oil seperator and return kit
HKS Turbo down pipes or front pipes
HKS Pod Filters
JIC Magic Force-07 18"x9.5" rims with Dunlop ZR1 Star specs 18/265/35
Okada Plasma Booster Direct coil packs
Inhand Tomei timing Belt, N1 water pump, and components that go in hand
Next up Tomei Expreme Exhaust Manifolds.
Before I installed the Okadas I had it Dynoed at Cockpit in Wako, and Fujii Dynamics in Sagamihara, Cockpit uses Dynopacks and it spit out 315HPFujii-San uses The Bosch machine and it spit out 368HP , not bad for starters, Mods list is in the order of installation. Well curiousity got the best of me because an engine with 87,000 clicks on it, with that short list of mods, is pretty strong. So I dropped it off at Tokyo's Nissan Prince Dealership which happens to have a motorsports division,( Quick tid bit this dealership has sold more R35 GTR's Than any other place in the world, plus they field their own race team) So needless to say they know GTR'S, plus just about every one in the motorsports side down there drives a GTR. So its getting the fine tooth comb treatment. So remember GTR'S Rule
Tried to post a picture but it was to big, will try again later.
Hey Neal Over! Peace Bro

Re: Code Name: Purple Twin (sled master)
I think I've already seen this movie
I wouldn't reccomend Tomei Expreme manifolds to anybody btw. I've seen 2 crack all to s***.
BTW, I see GTR's get spanked all the time over here man (especially by my GTSt ) . There are a lot of fast cars out there, but I'm glad you like yours.

Re: Code Name: Purple Twin (Cjmartz2k)
nice setup, location, & car.
what are the odds of you being able to source an R33 RB25 power steering pump for me? :P

Did you try Raw Brokerage? I'm sure I can find one around here. You just need one for non-hicas, right? An n/a RB20 will work.

Re: (nismo8117)
OP--So are you at Zama, right?
Also I just noticed something. How did the you go over 180kph with a stock ECU? You didn't list an aftermarket one, and considering you know the brand name of every part on this car, I think you would mention something like that.
