honestly as much as people think the gtr is overrated and all, i still think it's the best hands down. It's just such a classy car. And yeah wing on the teg is weak.

not necessarily, you figure you could get into an R34 that's like 7 or 8 years old now, in japan relatively cheap. I think they were around 60K new or something like that, so it couldn't be that expensive after that time period. Look at these fools buying 92 NSX's for 30g's, that's retarded.

Nice pics/sweet cars. Wheres the pics of ze civic?
Civc had a bit of a problem this weekend. I blew a brake line while on the brakes stopping into an intersection at about 120 or so. (~180kph) Totally ------ sucked, so now the civic is taking a rest. I did pick up my new defi's this weekend though well...used, but new to me. :P

On the camera, ive been into photography for about 10 years or so. Mostly film, though I took a break from it for a few years as I couldnt afford a new camera and my film wasnt doing so hot anymore. So one night I just went out while the wife was at work and bought the bitch. Soo glad I did. I love that camera (Nikon D50) and if anyone on here is interested in one, beautiful camera. Anyone could pick up a D50 and get nice shots with it.

lol, i have about 1100 views on the thread, and already 3 pages of "sick" comments. its in the appearance/cosmetic section :1

I cant see the pics from work (where I am now) but I could have sworn that I posted pics of the engine bay on the 34 I cant get a pic of the twin GT2835's, to much charge piping. I tried. :P

The GTR is nothign short of having everything done on it. Motor was rebuilt by JUN in mainland, nismo Z tune front end, brakes, carbon drive shaft (not sure if this is on yet) nismo wheels, AP brakes, OS cross-mission, OS tripple plate, different gears in the rear end....nothing untouched. He bought the car completly stock. ****** sounds like a dam Jet about to take off. Ive been taken for a few rides in it, and its not impressive at all. I enjoy looking at it, but its nothing I would spend my money on to have. Its his dream car, so my feelings...to each there own.

The Evo in the background is my wifes new whip

The DC5R is built for gymkhana and the circuit. SWIFT suspension, Mugen active-gate brakes, carbon grouppe M intake, Power amuse exhaust (soon to be J's) Mugen MF-10 wheels, Advan ad07 gymkhana compund tires, K-pro ECU, New bride zeta seats, M&M honda carbon defuser, Mugen wing....car is sexy.

The FD is also nothing short of completly rebuilt. It just came out from under the knife. Widebody, motor came out/everything from the interior came out, car was completly redone, not sure exactly whats done to the motor, but hes right at around 450hp on stock ports, (which people in the states say isnt possible...his car has been running just fine with weekly beatings now for 5 years on the same tune) Apexi power FC, diff, full under body bracing, brakes...car rocks. Hes about to get the new volks that just come out.
