listen, I don't like you telling me about forums like your some old school premie when your a red squared newb. On top of that I was not stressiing, but you are annoying me!

P.S. to bring it back on track the Spy shot from the front looks pretty sick. Those seats do indead look dope.

BOROSUN · 02-15-2007, 04:29 AM

i did some searching who drove the car.

DRIVERS: TOSHIO SUZUKI
Name: Toshio Suzuki
Nationality: Japan
Date of birth: March 10, 1955 - Saitamma
Toshio Suzuki was a successful single seater driver in Japan. He won the 1979 Japanese Formula 3 title and then raced regularly in Japanese F2 and Formula 3000. He finished runner-up in the series to Mauro Martini in 1992 and was a front-runner again in 1993. At the end of that year - at the age of 38 - he found backing to drive the second Larrousse-Lamborghini. He finished 12th in Japan and 14th in Australia.
Suzuki also enjoyed a successful career as a Toyota sportscar driver in national events.

Unfortunately that article hasn't been updated since August. Though that would be a great price, I don't think that article is accurate. Until I see a press release from Nissan, it's all assumption.

Not to mention that the markup on the car is gonna be insane b/c it will be brand new and have a mountain of hype behind it. I'm guessing it'll be around the 70-80K mark.

I'm just gonna ignore it until 2013. Then I might actually be able to afford a used one.

Unholy S14 · 02-16-2007, 10:16 AM

sorry didnt notice that

EchoOfSilence · 02-16-2007, 10:38 AM

Damn I wanna see pics of the black one. i'm sick of seeing that silver one now.

WILDACEX187 · 02-16-2007, 03:59 PM

i think that silver one is the one we're seeing everywhere. wonder wat differs the track model and regular one have

WILDACEX187 · 02-16-2007, 08:09 PM

this car is everywhere http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do...ticleId=119599

SimpleS14 · 02-16-2007, 08:56 PM

Anyone notice the wider rims in the rear?

OptionZero · 02-16-2007, 09:24 PM

At first I thought it was odd for an AWD to have staggered wheels (the EVO, STi, R32/33/34 all have same on all 4 corners).

Did a little checking: Gallardo is an MR/AWD, comes with 19x8.5 and 19x11 stagger.

I guess it's all in the AWD system's programming.

0100 · 02-17-2007, 01:08 AM

Yeah I am pretty sure the 996 turbo and 997 turbo run a staggered setup also.

coreansurfer · 02-17-2007, 02:30 AM

isnt it because the evos and wrxs have symetical awd, while the gtr has a heavy rear bias?

SimpleS14 · 02-17-2007, 09:47 AM

Yes, the GTR can send most, nearly all of its power to the rear wheels..IIRC the R34 starts out 100% RWD and only sends power up front when needed.

I don't believe the EVOs and STi/WRX can send more than half to the rear, maybe 65%?

S13FREEAAK · 02-17-2007, 10:03 AM

Does anyone want to buy a 600whp S13 in 2008? Cause I'll be looking to sell it for a down payment on one of these.

BOROSUN · 02-17-2007, 05:58 PM
