TTRANK in June 2009 Modified Magazine
I don't know why a common 500 whp Skyline that everyone has already seen all over is on the cover instead of the 650 whp sedan.
Congrats! BTW. Are your wheels going to be for sale soon?

Great read and congrats Tim. What plans are next? Plan to fix the traction issues? I'm really surprised that 650 hp pushing a roughly 3400lb car isn't cutting 11 or 10 sec. The power is obviously there. I'm sure you already know but you and your car are something myself and a lot of other members look up to and try to be like, in our own way of course. You set the bar high brother.
Keep us informed.
Keep us informed.Thank you.
The NT05's helped the traction issues a lot but would not be enough for the drag strip. Down the line I am going to get a set of cheap 18's with drag radials to solve that problem. The next issue will be that I am still on stock axles so they will need to be upgraded too.
When I ran that 12.3 @126 there was a built viper there who was running low 10's at 125 and a Z06 running 11.3 at 117-118 so I know there is enough power to get lower.
I'm going to try it again this summer with the stereo and interior out. The stereo is at least 150lbs right there. LOL
Thanks buddy. Not any time soon. Need to pay off my CC first. Maybe next year.
Yeah I don't get it either. Guess they know their readers better than we do.
Not going to sell the wheels any time soon.
Yaaay i know the owner(kind of) of a car that is featured on modifiedmag! I wanna mail my copy to you so you can sign it and send it back to me. That would be awsome!
And if all the other guys who are dissapointed that his g is not the main cover car we all should email modified or write to them.
Anyway, you re living the dream of mine and im sure many of the members here so hope you get to do more things to it you want and break into the 10's and 11's at the strip.
And when you are done modding sell it to me for like 8g's. I kno you race it and mod it! lol. jk jk
