Reviving this thread with some good news!
Well I haven't been on much lately, but for those of you who didn't know, I moved to Japan. Since I'm into cars and out here, I had to find myself a Skyline GTR! It's a 1992 but it's still a blast. Here are some pics:
Put some new wheels(well the stock ones) on the car tonight. The person I bought it from had the other ones put on there..a bit too flashy for me. Here's the ones I put on.

do any of you youngsters remember Novacaine
http://blog.hemmings.com/index.php/tag/nova-caine/
saw him run at the 280 dragaway outside Jacksonville, North Carolina in 1970...
I drove a 70 Dodge Dart Swinger, 340 4 speed and was turning low to mid 13s straight off the show room floor...I bought it without airconditioning, power steering and power brakes...nothing came off this engine except HP to the rear end...which sucked...had a 323....

I am at the maximum flow of the GT3076 right now, only way for me to make more power on this setup is to upgrade the turbo, which I do not want to do
intercooler wasnt in those pics, those pics are when it was supercharged
heres when it was supercharged
before the exterior revamp
video of the supercharger, 2nd gear tops out at 63mph
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_IC7PXR3tZw&feature=channel_video_title
car ran 12.8 @ 114 supercharged on RT-615's
made 320whp 220tq supercharged with an aftercooler on a 3" pulley, netting me right around 11psi

Wheebz, those look like some Motegi Traklites. Hehe I'm running the same turbo and same wheels on my 2007 SI that is back in the states. Pic related.
Wish I would've realized Full Race did anodizing, I would've gotten the FMIC done. Running boost by gear via Hondata, 5 psi in first, 7 in second, and 10 from 3-6. 352whp.
Spongey, your pic didn't work, but the bike sounds nice. I have an 09 FZ6. It's also back in the states though. If I get my license out here in Japan, I might try and pick up a KTM Super Duke 990r.

Wheebz - What tires are you running on the RSX? I have some friends up in the NOVA/MD area that told me to head up to Innovative to get tuned but it was so close to when I was leaving the country (and my car) that I didn't think it would be worth it until after I got back. They came highly recommended though.
Walka - Nice video! I have always wanted to get out and do some Auto-X but not sure my SI is best suited for that. I would still like to try it out though.
