There's always a reason for everything:smokin:

eBay.co.uk: World Record Breaking Nissan Skyline (item 120057741268 end time 06-Dec-06 11:00:23 GMT)

I am certainly not walking away & look forward to more fun in 2007 at santa pod etc

what you doing john?and more to the point whats next?

 

[skymania]

45k!!!!

It's an awesome machine mate, and I am fully aware of the time/money and effort that has gone into it. But, for what your asking, you would probably be better off breaking it.

if you wanted a world record then £45k would be cheap way of getting it.

Exactly!
To be honest if it doesnt go for the money then I'll keep it & put the sequential with airshifter in & drop the times further whilst the other project sits on ice for now
At least that way I dont give the car away & actually Project GTST may be worth even more especially if the time thanks to the gearbox & revised suspension starts with an 8 instead of a 9.

whoops did I bump this

 

[trackday addict]

Bumping again - 4 days left !

 

[trackday addict]

Only 36 hours left now
If it doesn't sell certainly not the end of the world - just means Project GTST will get a lot quicker :chuckle:

John saw 28 grand offered on ebay, thats gotto be close surely?

 

[trackday addict]

No mate - £37000 min - last thing I am going to do is give the car away no matter what anyone thinks it's worth.
It has all the potential in the world & lets be honest with a sequntial with air shifter be a lot lot quicker - not to mention more suspension development.
2006 was the debut year for the car & in a strange way I hope it doesnt sell as would be nice to see what it can really do rather than watch someone else finish off what I started.

if it does sell then Project B can start in earnest - so either way lot of work to do.

Ok mate fair comment, i saw the car at all the events this year, only reason i said that was because Dragon RX7 is for sale for 25 grand, ran a 9.1 if i recall correctly..

 

[leggus]

And pps, Rob Higgins who ive known for a long long time did the decals on your car.. he did mine on my subaru in 1999 (yes, i'm from Walsall too)

 

[trackday addict]

Ross did run a 9.1 the bugger
If mine had ran in comps for 2 or 3 years then I wouldnt be looking for as much but it's only had 1/2 a season & to be honest a 9.9 on a car still running the bog standard gearbox with real suspension hassle during the year due to not having any reference or other similar cars to draw on is not a bad place to start.
I honestly would love to keep it fit the "full monty gearbox" & sort the suspension, chuck a bit more power at it & hopefully run a low 9 or even high 8 next year & then look to sell again.
I would love to get Project B started but cant do both at the same time unless someone fancies going halves ??? - it will be a serious serious project with 1 & only 1 goal in mind :smokin:

[crazyass]

after all, what's that project B??? you got to tell, or else:banned:
:chuckle: :chuckle:

 

[trackday addict]

No longer for sale - sorry if it messes anyone around but sod it.
The longer the sale has gone on the less i want to sell.

With the gearbox arriving on the 21st & the suspension work that can now be done & other bits we should see it's proper potential over the next few months. I would have been sick as a dog watching someone else do it in the car.

 

[Mookistar]

we are all winners then

you get to take it to the next level, and we get another summer of top Skyline action!

well done dude
