You don't know how bad I was an R32 GT-R. Been following these things for over 10 years, not a bandwagoner for one particular part of the car or another...it's just a perfect looking car with tons of potential.

Something needs to be posted to redeem the lame drifting shit polluting this page

Hows this?



Sad thing is that this N/A 1.6L FWD economy car is probably faster around a track than most turbocharged drifting fagmobiles

pusha 07-11-2011 09:37 PM

Drifting requires massive amounts of finesse. For both man and machine to be one and weave a course through not only the track, but through life like a small river through a small town. Different people; shopkeepers, school teachers, policemen, the homeless, all their lives are intersecting for just a moment and then... BAM! MAD TYTE JDM S15 FRONT END HITS A GUARDRAIL AND GOES BYE BYE. FUCK YOU.

I have my reasons.

And don't be like that. You know what purpose built means.

Drifting is fun to do, but mostly boring to watch. Understanding what it really takes to link a section using various techniques of braking, throttle, low-angle (very unstable drifts) and steering inputs can be quite rewarding. I admit the techniques required can have their place in grip/track days/racing and that it's not the "best" way to get around the track.

While our owner/founder was taking his E60 M5 introduction class as part of his factory training, he theorized that the advanced knock control would continue to advance timing and make power, so long as the octane rating was high enough. This was the main reason behind our decision to run water-meth on the N/A S65B40 (which is based off the E60 M5's S85B50). We feel that as long as the adaptive knock control can keep pushing timing with a higher octane from the water-meth, we'll keep trying to pull power from that. In the years since that factory training, we've kept working with water-meth on N/A systems to see if his theorizing was correct, and we haven't hit any trip-ups as of now.

Obviously, risks are inherent. We understand that.

Here is what it takes to make a true 700hp, 11:1 compression, pump gas engine without any funny business. Keep in mind that this is a 500ci engine with a 4.500" stroke so we are not revving it very high either.

Street Attack 500
Custom camshaft - a little more aggressive but still streetable, still hydraulic
Kinsler crossram manifold - makes it less streetable
11:1 compression
March front drive
Katech carbon fiber valve covers (prototype pictured)
Show prepped intake runners, valley cover, water pump, oil pan - Atomic Orange
Painted engine block/heads
Kinsler makes some fancy stuff.

California’s fee for a 3-day late payment is equivalent to a 2,521% annualized interest rate.

http://biggovernment.com/files/2011/...egislation.jpg

And this little stunt enables the state to raise more revenue by levying higher and more aggressive late fees by reducing the time between the receipt of the bill and payment by 95%.

Implementing this policy in the summer also increases the probability that people will miss their payments because they are away on vacation.

The nice thing about california is you can pay your fees without getting your inspections--so even though your shit wont pass, you aren't penalized.

in VA, I can't pay my shit early and get the emissions test later. bullshit.

Braineack 07-12-2011 09:31 AM

you also arent paying $111 a year in fees. Just $56 a year for registration + safety inspection.

move out of nova if you don't want to deal with emissions :)
