Great looking cars, Andy - stop showing us your R32, easily the best looking one I've seen! I am very jealous. smile

The R34 looks great in that colour, there was a mix up with the stands at Japfest and one of those was on ours so I got to gawp at it from up close and it is lovely!

I'm not generally a fan of S2K's but that looks spot on smile

Took mine to the Haynes Breakfast Club last weekend.

Gorgeous blah Why doesn't yours have the two rectangular holes in the front bumper, either side of the front number plate?

Thanks buddy. My car, bodywork wise, is as it left the factory in 1990. Same as the one below:




I think I'm right in saying that the "N1" style vents were first used on the Nismo cars that were built not long after mine, to homologate various extra aero bits for racing. They also used them on the N1 road cars and you could probably spec them when ordering base version. Lots have been fitted with the Nismo bits over the years as well.

I've pinched the pictures below from Jags on the GT-R forum, showing the Nismo aero bits. The only bit not highlighted on the diagram is the lip on the end of the bonnet of the Nismo car.

Picked up this 370 about a month ago, great so far - had two 350s in the past and this is much improved, not that they were bad!

My recently acquired bit of Japanese muscle-car...











And the main mod, done pre-my ownership, but I'm in no mood to change it...

My Mazda 323 GTX, I've owned it for 15 years and slowly modded it, I use it for sprints and hill climb events now and it was dyno'd the other day at 382bhp.




Like that lots, my first GTX was black with a GT-R Bonnet, I have a pic somewhere what was the original reg?? you never know
Your old car may well of ended up being on our forum at some point.
I bought mine in Manchester as a relatively fresh import, reg is G348 YBU, and was standard apart from a Mazdaspeed exhaust, I put the GTR bonnet on it after a ' forgot to close the bonnet clips' moment.
Although there's a lot changed on the car, the BP engine is a cracker,get some stand alone management and, bingo, 330+bhp

Cracking as always. Do you ever do shoots for other cars? Wouldn't mind having a few nice shots of mine once it's all detailed.
