Post Pictures of your GTR

Here is mine... had it for about a month now.

Just finished first mods: Volk GT30 Phantom wheels 20 x 9.5 F, 20 x 10.5 R, clear corners, smoked tail lights, Eibach springs.

Coming soon: Toyo R888 rubber, custom fabricated exhaust (stainless), JRZ coilovers, Haltech engine management, bigger turbos, and a bunch of carbon fiber! I am also going to have a stronger 1st gear fabricated.

Your GTR

Very nice!!, the black wheels- size, Looks like your on your way to having real rocket ship there.
Here in Naples we finally have started to see quite a few GTRs,it has taken a while though,matter of fact had a Black one blast off accross the street from me and cut right in front of me,don't know if he thought I was turning or what?

Thank you! The color is Gunmetal Grey, the Titanium color has more of a Gold hue to it which I didn't like as much.

Racer M, The rim and eibach combo looks amazing. How much drop did you get with the new springs and how is the ride quality now?

nice car. what tires will you run meanwhile? from my understanding that the R888 won't be released in 20" until later this year.

drop was 19.6mm front, 12.25mm rear

ride quality is pretty similar to stock, rough, even on the comfort mode which is what I always drive in on the street. only way to soften the ride (which is what I am assuming youre curious about) is to go with a nice coilover setup (JRZ is the best) and take all the compression and rebound out for the street. then when you go to track the car, you can dial in a good setup there. unfortunately, even with the factory adjustable dampers, the car is pretty harsh for a daily driver unless you live somewhere where the streets are as smooth as a track. I live in LA so I am up sh*ts creek without a paddle

GTR FANATIC!!! Funny...

thought some of you guys would find this funny... I was in the bay area last weekend and wanted to take some pics of my Godzilla up the viewpoint road in Marin just off the 101 by the Golden Gate bridge. While I was up there, some kids drove up that were GTR fans and one of them had a "GTR" tatoo on his forearm and he had just got off a plane from Japan (he had it done there). I love the car too but a tatoo... man thats a fanatic for sure! LOL...
