Good day,

I am Rob, I've spent 14 years in service with the Canadian Armed Forces, and am a father to 5. I have owned and lightly modded 1st Dodge Shadow with a 2.2L "Turbo 2" setup, followed by a few 1992 Eagle Talon TSI AWD versions. But most recently owned a 1993 Skyline GTR VSPEC. Unfortunately, that car ended up having to go. It was equipped with a 3" Apexi turbo back exhaust, Twin Garrett GT 2860R-7 with Greddy Profec B boost controller, Apexi twin intakes, HKS SSQ V4 blow off valve, Greddy Thrust oil cooler, Cusco front and rear sway bars, Eibach lowering springs, DBS brake rotors with Hawk HP rear and Hawk HPS front brake pads. and an Exedy hyper twin plate clutch, which just GRABBED so well for this build. The engine was tuned through NISTUNE ECU. The engine internals were bone stock. The injectors were running likely their max. Fuel delivery was my bottleneck if I wanted to push beyond the 425hp as well as the top end of the engine. The car was running 390-ish HP at the wheels and approximately 370ish LB/TQ. Running 11.9 in the 1/4 at 185KM/hr. This was street tuned, 1/4mile runs on the street in a safe, undisclosed location. I say approximately for HP/TQ figures, as it was measured with a data logger, not a dyno, which incorporated the weight of the vehicle, based on time and speed to get through the 1/4 mile. Miss it so much.
