I wonder if the "EXVITERIMINI"    Skyline was there. I think the dude sold it. Anyhow it was an insanely quik Skyline with lots of experimental parts, and I believe "Croydons" who were mentioned in the article did a lot of the build on it. ??

 Some dude with Lots of family money was building it.  The last I saw it was running a single turbo I-6 with about 1000+HP.

As far as I know the Croydons Skyline is still the fastest Nissan in Australasia (probably the world).
Runs mid to low 8 seconds passes and is probably capable of a high 7 second if everything works right.

He got dealt to by a T-Bucket, was a mid 8 second race.
He was really their only chance...needs an Auto transmission to improve his times, that car bounces and jumps all over the place when shifting gears, for one it looks poo and secondly it's gotta hurt their times.


Oh well, that's their problem.  :swaying:
