That and the fact it's gonna be used properly, not taken to shows on a trailer and set up with mirrors on the floor to show off how it's rarely driven.

its deffo using a skyline box, can take much much more power than the ford one, and can turn it from 50/50 into 100% rear wheel drive

not 100% but im sure martin said about going for rod tarrys record but whitout N2o, rods tarrys record being 206 mph with Nitros
