i'm not as well off as some of those guys sooooo not for me lol

these are guys where their 1000hp gtr is their cheapest car.

did you pay the $600 to him personally or to the shop?

timing to call is very critical, surely I know you are worrying about the $600, I suggest you want to call after the funeral when his matter has settled down.

Pretty sure you will get it back just the timing is important.

someone on the GTR forum found the article on my tuner.

per the article it seems that someone hit him in the GTR and caused the wreck. roads are soaked so i assume it wasnt him doing pulls or anything.[/QUOTE]

That’s crazy, must have been a huge impact, might want to seek getting yourself a bolt in cage

Anyone want first dibs on a brand new Bell Diff brace, for oem diff cover?

JARblue · 04-20-2020, 10:08 AM

Someone explain this to me. The cars were travelling parallel but the impact was perpendicular?

Sure looked like it was on a straight section of the road. But I guess you can't really tell from the photo in that one article.

hell, first time i hit the drag strip and texted him my stock time he was mad i didnt take a laptop was gonna send me a tune to my OEM setup to drop my 11.0 into the 10s. only a handful of OEM gtr's ever hit 10's and mine is one. i did 11.0 on terrible tires. might go hit it again with the cup 2's now.
