Mine's R35 GTR

The famous Japanese tuner Mines has taken to the Tsukuba circuit for a time attack in their brand new Nissan R35 GTR, managing a time of 1m 3.1s around the track. This places it in front of the Lamborghini Gallardo, which manages a 1m 3.6s time around the same track.This car has a reputation to live up to as the old Mines prepped R34 GT-R model achieved a 57.7s time around the circuit. But we’re sure that this car has great potential. Apparently the car was run with the VDC in the R setting instead of turned off and the car’s traction control was affecting its performance on the day.

Custom Downpipe with High Flow Cat for S14 KAT

Finally got the high flow cat I ordered from hottexhaust.com. 3" ID-11" Length 300 cell density Metallic Substrate Universal Catalytic Converter Magnaflow 59929 was what I got. I originally ordered the shorter one (8" length), but it never came. I finally called them yesterday (I ordered it on 11/12) they told me it was back ordered. The guy said he'd give me the 11" one for the same price. And I got it the next day after the phone call which was pretty cool.

2009 Nissan GT-R priced at $69,850

Yes!!! Under 70K for the new GTR when it goes on sale in the US in June 2008. The only transmission that will be available in the GT-R is a GR6 dual-clutch six-speed. Now I just need to be able to get it for MSRP, no mark-ups.

New GTR website

A lot of information is now on the website.

Brembo 6 pistons up front and 4 in the rear. 380mm x 34 front rotors and 380mm x 30 rear rotors!!

Carbon Fiber is used in parts of the frame.

The Bilstein DampTronic appears to be Bilstein shocks with Tein EDFC like device.

The Multi-function meter is awsome.

2010 Nissan GT-R Spec V

It's official, there will be a 2010 Nissan GT-R Spec V and it will be sold in America. A Nissan source has confirmed that a lightweight, more powerful version of the new supercar is nearly complete and will arrive in America about a year after the GT-R hits U.S. dealers early next summer. Rumor it is priced around $95k.

Spec V?? Isn't that for Sentra's? I hope they mean V-Spec.

More pics. Notice the fairly large factory oil and intercooler.

Advan Racing TC II Wheels

I have owned numerous sets of aftermarket wheels to date; Nismo, Advan, Volk Racing, 5 Zigen, Racing Dynamic, and SSR. One thing I noticed with higher quality wheels is that it requires less weights to balance them. One of the lightest wheels available utilizing Cored Cavity Technology. 18" wheel is around 17 pounds. The original prototype was used on the 2000 HKS Altezza. Notice the single center lock nut on the prototype.

Certain offsets has the GT-R face where the spokes are concaved inwards. Advan provides the blue rubber caps to cover the hole in the spokes.

Notice the hollow spokes in the below pic. The finish, weight, and quality of the wheel speaks for itself.

For Sale: SSR D5R 18x9 SSR D5R 5x114.3 et24

ION Performance 2 piece rotors for WRX

This was on a 2002 WRX, the ION Performance 2 piece rotors. The box it came in says KVR. Less than 1000 miles easy street driving later!!!!!




WTF! I was driving on the freeway when the bolts fell off. Imagine what would've happen if I had to step on my brake with a decent amount of force. Luckily, I figured out something was wrong and pulled off the freeway. At first, I thought something was wrong with the steering or suspension. I checked out my car, but found nothing. I got back in and drove slowly, but something was still wrong. I pulled over a second time, and finally saw what had happened. Long story short, I wanted a full refund from ION, but they denied me. The guy on the phone said, "You should go buy the lottery cause that has never happened before." They instead send me a pair of new ones.....Thanks a lot, do you expect me to put it on my car?
Only Endless, Project-mu, or Brembo for me from now on.

Sard Fuel Pressure Regulator 8mm fitting

One of the best Fuel Pressure Regulator available. Adjustable 200~800KPa or 2~8 kg/cm2. Now I should be able to run 16PSI and hit 300WHP with a conservative IDC.




I wanted one with the blue sticker, but my friend picked up a red one from Japan for me. Overall quality looks good. One disappointment was the L shaped nozzle on top. The finish is not as smooth as I expected from SARD.
