RRE Nissan 200SX GTL
Purchased as a GT-5 car from Jay Bivens in Georgia. Changed over to an A15 and ran a full season in 2005 as GTL with reasonable success including a 7th in the Runoffs.
Since then the car has undergone extensive development. Significant chassis updates by Barry of RRE and engine development by Don Preston Racing. Completed at the end of summer 2009 and performed well at a Mid-Ohio test. Unfortunately, due to personal time constraints, I am unable to continue the fine-tuning and development work that a serious effort requires.
Major specifications follow. A detailed spec sheet will be eMailed (or snail mail) on request. To view photos, click on the link below or copy and paste the URL into your browser: This sends you to Snapfish and you need to setup an account. Its easy
all they want is a name and eMail address.
Then click on Slideshow. (If trouble, send me an eMail and Ill get Snapfish to send you an invitation to view.) Or, if you prefer, I can eMail some of the pics.
The Highlights:
Engine: Newly rebuilt DPR A-15 utilizing 25 mm SIR and DPR airbox. Gearbox: Houseman 5 speed with direct 5th. Rear: Winters mini quick change with Variloc limited slip Chassis: RRE built approx 1996. Currently uses 60 lbs lead ballast to achieve target GTL weight of 1850 lbs.
Price: Over $40k invested. Sell for $18,000 or
.look at the photos, check the specs and figure out what this car is worth to YOU. Then, if you wish, make a serious offer. In person visits are welcomed. This car is located in Arlington, Virginia.

It's a great car... I hope it stays in the area. Some interesting stuff on the front of that engine. Looks like it could be ready for the VIR double.
