Idk how to embed videos on here, but here are the links of a few. Car is running strong, I have 0 complaints. Only one I can think of is my MPG is down about 7-8mpg from before. I think part of that is I can't keep my foot off the gas lol. Sorry, no cool GoPro, video editing or telemetry. Most should know what each gear tops out at, so figure it out :P






Also below are pics of my failed tensioner pulley. GTM promptly picked up my ride and took care of everything That last vid is with the new tensioner pulley. It's squeaking a tad bit occasionally again. Nothing big.








And the pulley failed and belt is off. Car still drives normally at low speed luckily, I didn't hear the belt break or the pulley fail, it just did. I was only a couple miles from home when it happened so no big deal. Just a lot of rubber in my engine bay i need to clean now.

Which is the way most threads like this one end.

If you want to go fast, buy something that's already fast and meant to go fast. You can't tun chicken chit into chicken salad.

Everyone has their hobbies, and well that was his...
I could of easily bought "something that's already fast and meant to go fast"...did I? NO, bc I just love working on cars and learning how different mods effect the cars handling/performance. It's all about someone's interest. A lot of people out there see a car as just a form of transportation. To some guys, cars are so much more than that. I can't get enough of them. I can strip 'em down and rebuild them forever and never get bored of it because it's what I love to do...My friends ask me why do I want to buy a RHD R32 (which are legal state side now)...instead of an easy mode GTR? It's simple, the car is rare and I wanted my car to behave exactly as I want it to and actually DRIVE the car and not have it drive for me. Like I said in the beginning, everyone has their hobbies and that was his...he wanted to build his car the way he wanted to #unique #endrant

Yes I sold that car. Dealer gave me a lot of money for her and I bought a 13' Magma Red Nismo. Modding hasn't stopped and issues haven't either lol. When trying to install the road race pump, my buddy got over his head and put it back to stock, then 4 days later my stock fuel pump went out. That cost me a nice $900. In the process of fixing it, the dealer left nice gouges and scratches inside my passenger door jamb. I'll get that damn RRP in. I'm looking at exhausts and have some AEM intakes in my garage. I lost about $15k, but considering the dealer gave me $10,000 for the mods and work on the car on top of an excellent rated kbb value, I had to give up the car. They sold it a wek later for $38,000 in the exact same condition I sold it to them. It needed a retune, oil change, tires, and a good lookover to make sure everything is solid. The sales manager did say it was faster than his Z06, so it was still putting decent power down, but not what GTM claimed.
