Got round to picking the Q45 up from Somerset !!!!

Just shows how quick time flies - they handed me my purchase receipt dated 18th July 2006 !!!!

Its a phenomenally ugly car, and whilst I am truly impressed that a 15year old car with that many gadgets still works perfectly - the seats are still happy to shove my well formed frame up, down, forwards, backwards, any which way you like !!! Even the aircon works fine !!!!

Alas the gearbox has a few issues, but hopefully with a flush that will sort itself out and then a quick bash wi' a hammer to sort the slight impact in the o/s/f wing that was enough to effectively right the car off for its last owner will see a truly resurrected rare nissan/infiniti wallowing along for a few months before we rip its heart out, do lots of rude things to it and get it running into 4figure territory :D :D :D

Huzzaaaa !!!!

Hmmm...a Q45 you say.

Are you using the car or just robbing the car of its engine ?!!!? 4 litre V8 would go nicely in a 200sx !!!!!

Using then raping !!! :D :D

4.5 litre v8 with a pair of 2835Pros or 3037's Im thinking - whatever it takes to get a genuine 1000bhp+ !!!

:D :D

And NO - it wont be going in the Orange ;) :D

It's about time you brought that ugly son of a bitch back home. It will be interesting to see what becomes of the near two tonne behemoth* when you have had your wicked way with it. I'm sure the guys at GBH will be rubbing their hands together if given carte blanche with that.......




*with you in it :D

You bunch of fukkers !!!! :D :D :D

The new recipiemt for that car should have an all up weight with cage and fluids of 1300kg's certainly under 1400 !!! Should still be good enough for 600bhp/tonne :D :D even with me in it !!!!!

Ha ha ha good one Ben !!!

Just a question....forgive me if it stupid.

But could the engine go in another Nissan easily enough ? Say a 200sx or a Skyline etc ? I am guessing the engine weighs a lot more than an RB26 but it must have some power and torque !! Is it something anyone has done or considered ?
