The Good: 
This car runs excellent, is an absolute pleasure to drive, turns heads everywhere it goes, and does everything well... acceleration, handling, braking. The combination of the Porsche brakes with the 295 front tires results in amazing stopping power. The lightly modded RB26 sounds amazing, revs with ease, and makes enough power to trap 123MPH in the 1/4 mile in a full weight Z. The car has always been garage kept and has been driven very little... only 3k miles since built 2 years ago. The entire car was built with comprehensive performance in mind, this car does everything well. Also, the chassis only has 36k miles on it!!! Yes, a true 36k! The car was originally owned by a Marine who gave his life in the first desert storm. The car sat in his parents garage for many years until being sold to a young man who got in over his head with a V8 swap. I purchased the car unfinished and abandoned the V8 for an RB26.  

The Bad:  
Not Much... the car had fading clearcoat, which is why it was wrapped. 3M 1080 is the cream of the crop in wraps, is very durable, and removes with ease leaving no residue if you decide to paint the car. There are a fair amount of small dings around the car, with only one dent in the drivers front fender. Lastly, the custom oil pan leaks a small amount. It is never enough to see the oil level go down, but it will leave 2 or three small drips in the driveway/garage. To resolve this, a summit engine diaper was installed. This is a requirement in many racing circles anyway, but in the interest of full disclosure I am leaving no stone unturned. 

Why am I selling? 
That is both easy and difficult. There are two major reasons. 1: I do not get to enjoy the car enough. With a very bust family and work schedule, there is little time for fun with this car. 2: We are looking to downsize and this means some toys must go. If I had it my way, I would never sell this car, but sometimes sacrifices need to be made.

If anyone is interested in speaking with me directly about this car, send me a message and I will provide my phone number. I built this car, and as such I can tell you every detail about it.  

This is a NO RESERVE Auction. high bidder wins this car. NO INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS!!! Cash sale or bank to bank wire transfers ONLY. Do not bid if you do not have the money! I am NOT interested in trades!! I am NOT interested in waiting for you to get financing!! Deposit due immediately upon end of auction with full payment to be made within two weeks. I CAN DELIVER THIS CAR ANYWHERE in the continental US. I have a truck and a fully encloded car trailer and will deliver the car anywhere for a fee.

Recharge Wrap-up: Tesla Model X 0-100 video, Nissan-Renault record EV sales

Tue, Feb 9 2016

A video shows that a Tesla Model X can accelerate from 0-100 mph faster than a Model S P85D. DragTimes tested a Founders Edition Tesla Model X P90D with Ludicrous Mode, and found that it did 0-60 mph in 3.178 seconds, which is faster than Tesla's stated 3.2 seconds. The 0-100 mph happened in just 7.98 seconds, which is faster than the 8.3 seconds DragTimes clocked in Model S P85D using Insane Mode. Even more impressive is that the Model X used is a seven-seater with all the boxes ticked, which means that it's lugging a lot of extra weight on the drag strip. DragTimes says it intends to do more tests with other configurations of Tesla models – perhaps we'll get to see how two vehicles with Ludicrous Mode compare. See the video above, and read more at Teslarati. Nissan and Renault saw record sales of electric vehicles in 2015. The two automakers sold 84,754 battery-powered vehicles last year, a rise of 2.5 percent. Nissan Leaf and e-NV200 sales dropped by almost 10 percent, but Leaf sales are expected to improve with the next generation. The Alliance's EV sales, though, were boosted by Renault selling 45 percent more EVs in 2015. Government incentives in France are partially responsible for Renault's success. Since they began selling them, Renault and Nissan have sold 302,000 EVs worldwide by the end of 2015. Read more at Bloomberg Business. A study finds that E20 provides higher peak load capability and thermal efficiency than gasoline in reactivity-controlled compression ignition (RCCI) combustion. The dual-fuel combustion technique uses in-cylinder blending to optimize combustion. The study used E20 ethanol blend or gasoline blended with highway diesel or B20 biodiesel blend and compared the results. In addition to the load capacity and thermal efficiency benefits, E20 also produced fewer hydrocarbon emissions. Read more at Green Car Congress.

Skyline-powered Nissan Patrol shows Juke-R how it's done

Mon, 21 Oct 2013

If you had told us a few years ago that people would be shoehorning GT-R engines into Nissan SUVs, we'd have told you you were nuts. But that was before the Juke-R came along. And before the Qashqai-R project followed a similar formula. Well, now there's a third example.
We don't know who made it or who it belongs to, but some our-kind-of-nuts character has shoehorned the 2.5-liter turbocharged inline-six from a Skyline GT-R into a fourth-gen Nissan Patrol sport-ute. And from the sound of it, we gather the engine has also been heavily tuned beyond its 215-horsepower stock specification.
What's even better is that this Patrol-R isn't alone. Check out the second video below and you'll see a whole club of Patrol owners who've shoehorned in Nissan RB engines like the ones that powered generations of Skyline GT-Rs.

Recharge Wrap-up: Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV Finishes AXCR, Nissan Leafs drive 528 million collective miles

Wed, Aug 20 2014

The Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV has successfully completed the Asia Cross Country Rally 2014. The plug-in Mitsu finished first in the EV class, and 14th overall, clocking in at 19 hours, 17 minutes and 12 seconds. For its second year in the competition, the Outlander PHEV used a new suspension with more ground clearance to help it tackle the race's treacherous terrain. Besides the glory of taking on the challenging competition, the rally helped Mitsubishi gather valuable data for EV development. The race took place over 1,367 miles of varied terrain from Thailand to Cambodia. Read more at Hybrid Cars, or visit Mitsubishi UK's Facebook page. Nissan Leaf drivers have driven more than 528 million miles worldwide. That accounts for a reduction of 150,000 tons of carbon dioxide emissions since the EV's 2010 launch. Nissan projects that Leaf drivers will surpass a collective 1 billion electric kilometers (621 million miles) by January 2015, or perhaps even sooner if sales keep increasing. The mileage data was collected through the car's CarWings telemetry.

Whether it's battery-electric, hybrid, or plug-in hybrid, electrons will be doing their share to get the well-heeled from place to place. According to an article at The Sydney Morning Herald, PHEVs are "the most promising option." The BMW i8 is a fine example, as is the Porsche Panamera S E-Hybrid, and Audi and Mercedes-Benz have plug-in plans of their own. Lexus, not so much. Read more at The Sydney Morning Herald. PGA golfer Hunter Mahan has taken delivery of a BMW i3 he won by scoring a hole-in-one. BMW offered a free, all-electric i3 to the first player to score a hole-in-one in the 2013 BMW Championship at Conway Farms Golf Club, which Mahan did on the 17th hole. The BMW Championship raised money for Evans Scholars Foundation. BMW Hole-in-One Scholar Melyzjah Smith, who was awarded a full four-year college tuition and housing scholarship in honor of Mahan's slick shot, was on hand to meet the golfer as he received his i3.
