Andrew from Motive DVD in Australia put this up on YouTube. You may know Andrew from the DSPORT DVD series. Anyhow, it's always pretty sick to watch an RB26 blast through the gears although this BNR32 GT-R seems to have some long ass gears. There isn't quite anything quite like an RB26 blasting. To watch a Supra blast through the gears isn't even remotely as cool sounding.

Sick GT-R's. Even the XS GT-R doesent get all sideways like that, it just goes straight.

Every time I see a video like that it makes me kick myself for passing up the chance to get an R32 because NC insurance refused to cover it. I love those cars.

We have Hiros old R32 at RB. DOT/EPA/Cali legal, just in case someone wants to build something.

I have a new project that I am in the planning stages on. Jeff's R32.4 is fun, this will be funner.

Well that's because YOU setup the XS GT-R, Mike. Of course it goes straight.

Sean, when are you going to build that 1000hp stock crank engine? It would be interesting to see although I hate it when 2JZ guys add it to their signatures.

Sean, even though I am in no position to buy a GT-R, how much is RB asking for Hiro's old car?

Stock engine.. 1000 hp... I have to make money first. I have everything I need on pallets. RB just moved, so everything's a big mess.

I have been spending a lot of time working on things that actually make money, shipping cars to Australia. Then burning that money in the car lot. I have some alternative fueled things I am working on with one other comany. The bevy of blogs...

So Hiros old car is together and running, going to smog soon. I finally got a title on Nicks car, and thats going to probably be the next project for me. Phoenix, rise from the ashes.

Yeah, all just excuses.

1000 hp has been done on a stock crank, but I wanted to do stock crank, rods, and some N1 pistons.

Excellent. Now I have a great video I can link people to when they ask what compressor surge sounds like.

One night Hiro and I were cruising down Western Ave. in his BNR32. This Camaro rolled up next to us loud as fuck. We raced from the light and easily smoked the shit out of the Camaro, but the car felt pretty good so Hiro kept blasting. We hit 7500rpm in 5th so I'm guessing we were blowing through red lights at about 180mph-ish? It's a damn good thing there are no cars at 3:30am! The stupid shit you do when you're young...

HEy, glad you all liked it. Full feature will be in an upcoming DSPORT DVD as well.

The car has an OS-Giken gearset in it with really long ratios.

Black one did 10.0@151mph on the slippery surface

I missed that last comment by Eric, but I have a similar. One night after coming back from Birdie, we were in Blackbird. Right off the 405 and Western. The light was red and a Mustang pulled up. I think we thought it was a good idea to flip the guy in the Mustang off, and go. We got moving decent down Western.

See, too much party, too much drink.
