Congratulatins! It's definately in order. The car looks absolutely beastly and I love the attention to detail.

What size tires are on the re30?

Toyo R888's 295/30/19 front and 305/30/19 rear. We are waiting on our 18 inch wheels to arrive a little later in the season. Then we will run 295/315 combo. You can tell in the vid, it's still a little loose. :)

Sharif, did they go ahead and make those 18x12 wheels for you?

Going to be 18X11.5 More details will be posted in a brand new thread. Just waiting on a few things. :)

Hey Sharif, did you guys hook up a traqmate to this car? Wondering if you figured out how to connect the RPM wire... it wants an analog signal and I'm at a loss for where to find one of those!

We threw the TM in about 10 mins before we left for the track, so we didn't pull the tach signal yet. It's pretty easy though. Simply tap the #1 Ignition wire from the ECU. I am at home, but I am sure someone has a PIN out they can post up, as I don't remember the pin location off the top of my head.

Sharif a little of topic, but have you done any transmission mods to the GTR?

Just upgraded fluids and coolers. We are testing some different clutch packs and seals as well, but so far OEM seems to be holding up splendidly even under fulll race use.

The good news, is that that JRZ is almost done with development on some mainstream coilover systems that will be head and shoulders above the typical stuff you see on the market, at a more mainsteam price point as well. Stay tuned for more on this.
Any word on the street/track version of theses? Season is getting close and I need to pull the trigger on something soon!

Still in process, but we will definitely be first to know.

Here are some quick photos of our diff cooler in progress. Not quite done, and I will post some pics of the pumping setup shortly. The car is back up in the air already. :)

For those of you tracking your cars frequently, a diff cooler is nearly as important as the oil cooler. We are seeing 300F+ temps in the diff without a cooler, and this is still at stock power. Of course, this type of installation we chose will only work with a dedicated race car. We can easily configure this to a trunk mount setup, or under the trunk pan.
