RIPS MGAWOT III - 7.78 @ 178 MPH


Robbie from RIPS in New Zealand just got his first 7 second pass in the MGAWOT III. 178 mph shows its making some power. A 1.26 60 is good, but the Heat Treatments R32 sees some 1.1 - 1.0 60 foots.  Every tenth of a second normally translates to about 0.2 at the big end.

Great day after all. It rained 2 or 3 times but we got out 4 times. 7.80, 7.86, 7.78, 7.80 all at 180-181mph. Happy team all things considered. We need some fresh tyres then we can try to wind it up some more.

Heat Treatments R32 as gone as fast as 7.41@193 mph. Check out the video and pictures here:

Will Robbie and his RB30 have enough to put the car into the 7.30 range,making it the fastest GT-R in the World?    New Zealand vs New Zealand...
Left smooth as silk. 1.26 then smooth and straight for an effortless 7.805 @ 288 kph

Check out this video from yesterday of a test launch.

2014 Grand National Roadster Show at Pomona


Grand National Roadster Show 2014 Pomona
This year, the Grand National Show was celebrating 100 years of Bonneville. First time I have gone to the show. Lots of cool cars. History of chasing speed. The show goes though Sunday. Friday was a great day to go. Less crowds, and we had plenty of time to meander around the cars.   Check out the pictures and album.

For Export Only - 1999 Lightning Yellow R34 GT-R. Who Needs a GT-R?

Check out this 1999 R34 GT-R. Original Lightning yellow car. It is for sale for Export ONLY. This means you can't buy it and just keep it if you are in the US. However if you are overseas, this might be a great car for you. Well taken care of. Just tuned and it makes 618 horsepower at 1.4 bar on 100 octane pump gas.

Again, this car is for export only. Don't ask how you can keep it in the US. Don't ask how you can try and get around the laws. This car was associated with Kaizo, was seized, and the owner has it back to export.

When the R34 turns 25 years old in January 2024, lets talk - International Vehicle Importers . Until then be happy R32 GT-R's are turning 25 years old, and I got NISMO R32's under Show or Display exemption.

First 1989 Nissan Skyline GT-R Imported to the US Under the 25 Year Exemption




So I don't want to blow up Trevor's Facebook with 1,000 random friend requests, I won't post a link here, but here it goes.  The first 1989 Nissan Skyline GT-R, to legally enter the country under the 25 year rule.  For more information on the 25 year rule please read my post at MotoIQ.  Congratulations to Trevor. He had all his ducks in a row, and had no hold ups. HS7, 3520-1, and paid the tariff.

Check out IVI on Facebook if you need help importing 25 year old cars.

My NISMO is for sale if anyone is interested in a Show or Display car.

US Legal NISMO Nissan Skyline GT-R For Sale : Show or Display

US Legal Nissan Skyline For sale imported from Japan


1990 Nissan Skyline GT-R NISMO R32 GT-R for sale. This vehicle was imported into the US under the Show or Display exemption. This allows vehicles that were never originally certified for the US to be imported and be exempt from NHTSA/DOT requirements, much like the 1989 Nissan Skyline GT-R will be in 2014. Over 21 years old vehicles are EPA exempt in their original configuration. Once this car turns 25 years old in 2015, it will no longer be a Show or Display car, so the mileage will be unlimited, just like any 1990 vehicle imported. This is a legally imported Nismo version of the 1990 Nissan Skyline R32 GT-R, imported to the US under the Show or Display exemption. This vehicle is over 21 years old, and EPA exempt. With the Show or Display exemption it does not need to meet NHTSA requirements. There were a total of 560 Nismo versions produced, 500 were sold to the public. Nissan kept 60 of the cars to use as a base for race cars. This car is chassis number 500. BNR32-100500.
