^ Understood that it's a tad strange for me to post here about my decision but I am a car guy after all and on a few forums. For example I'm on the corvette forums not for an actual vette but more for that parts that I might source. The Z01 has CCM rotors that I'm trying to fit on my GTR is...
To all the supporters, I thank you kindly. For the others, oh well guess we weren't meant to be friends and that doesn't bother me one bit. The main reason why I had so much interest in the SLC was due to the joy/pains of building a car from the ground up. I do wish to someday do so. I never...
Well after following this forum for over 5 years I finally broke down and picked up a new Nissan GTR. I just couldn't justify spending so much time building the SLC due to work and family demands. I hope to still see some of you at the track even though you'll most likely pass me by. I have...
Hi All,
The body hasn't changed since 2008 and I was wondering if there were plans to update the look at all? I just figured a 6 year life cycle was just a tad long. If not, no biggie I still think that it's a very cool car.
Thanks,
Bruce
Thanks for all the replies guys I think I just needed the extra nudge honestly. It's just seems like a lot of work to build one and my work schedule is ridiculous. I'm out of town 3 weeks out of each month and have a 1 year old girl. Not much time to do anything else but pamper her when I'm...
I'm really wanting to build an SL-C but my buddy who has a modified Nissan GT-R keep saying how the technology yada yada would smoke an SL-C on the track, drag race etc. Please inform me on how he is completely wrong in all aspects. I showed him a youtube video on a Ford GT smoked a GT-R but he...
Hey Will,
I have the 2.0 version that Fran sent me via link but am interested in the newest version you have. Should I reach out to him or would you be able to provide this to me? I'll PM you the link to show you that I have it for proof.
Thanks,
Bruce
Wow thanks Dave. I totally thought this would be needed to build the car. Perhaps getting a build manual to look at would be helpful to better understand what I'm getting into. Does anyone have one they can send me? [email protected]
Thanks!!
Thanks for all the response guys. I've since had a visit at my local Sears and picked up a 500 piece tool box set along with extensions and other random tools. I'm looking into the rest of the tools and more importantly lift for my garage. I don't know how to explain that I need this to my wife...
Ok yes I've been lurking for a while and was leaning towards the FF GTM until last year of seeing all the issues builders had with them. Now I'm leaning towards the SLC and not having such the delay as the house purchase has been completed. I'm knocking out little tasks before allowed by the...
I just checked out their site and I supose they haven't updated it yet with the new specs. It still shows them being at around 2500+ pounds.

Sorry guys I'll try not to ask any further questions. Can we all get along now? LOL Honestly I know a 3 rotor build would be wild because a 3 rotor is already wild in itself. Now I do like the fact that you can rev higher and it does make awesome sounds with a mean bridge port. I also like that...
The newest 5.7's out with the vvi cam? They are pretty sick. I've seen them run low 13's stock at the 1/4 track. Could be faster with drag radials. Fun stuff.
Really? Something sounds strange. I built 13b motors with 3mm apex seals and was able to pull around 400 HP to the wheels with single turbo running around 1 bar of boost. No problems with reliability until we ran a 75 shot of N2O. I thought the 20b's would be able to produce much more HP safely...
