Random R34 GT-R

I see this guy all the time. Not much to look at appearance wise. He's got a ton of decorations on the inside, but the car is kept pretty darn clean. Nice.

White is the new Blue



After much deliberation, it was decided that white was to be the new color. Championship White or "Type R White" to be exact. I have to admit that I miss the electric blue color (not original Berlina Blue by the way) that came with the car, but white really gives the car much more definition. The biggest drawback I suppose is the rear end that turns yellow very quickly after each wax job due to the high heat of and carbon from the exhaust. There doesn't seem to be a way around that so far.

Spartan 505 Titanium Exhaust





I hate to admit it, but the normally cheapie me felt like spending some money. Plus, I didn't like the looks or sound of the previous Kakimoto exhaust. Quiet at idle. Screams at the redline. Reasonably priced for titanium.
