By the look of things I might see the white dragon when coming to america.

Also the VR is closed deck block and the VQ is an open deck block so EVERYTHING is different.

about the size of a small dog and it will weigh more than 15 kilo's

what the hell? its that huge? O_o

1slow370 03-11-2011 04:38 AM

think jack russel and it's made out of steel so yeah It's probably like about 25cm in diameter and about 7-10cm tall. IT's hollow so it weighs less when drained so maybe 10kilos about the size of 2 oem clutches stacked on top of each other

this white stuff all over the place that makes you save money and blow it all on your car in spring, so you can drive the sh!t out of it all summer

Hmm... I've never dealt with the stuff. It does sound a bit better than having open roads all year and blowing money on the car year round though:happydance:

Not to mention hot as hell and ball soup for nine months out of the year.

I was just thinking of something, how is the front strut tower brace going to fit with the GT-R manifold? Doesn't seem like much room: http://i727.photobucket.com/albums/w...4/a93fbef5.jpg

SPOHN 03-14-2011 08:38 PM

It might not. I know on the 350's with the Kinetix and Crawford manifolds people ran without them. I had both and ran without.

christian370z 03-14-2011 10:10 PM

I think someone somewhere in this thread said it could fit by trimming the GTR engine cover but I am not sure where that post is.

NewYorkJon34 03-14-2011 10:13 PM

Hopefully Sam can chime in, I'm sure he has something figured out
