Barr's R32 GTR

Barr's R32 GTR

What do we have for you this month?  

Man when I tell you doing these features is some serious work. Aligning photographers and owners will forever get the best of me. As they say, anything worth doing is going to be difficult at first. The final product for me is always rewarding and that’s why I press forward. We have worked with some very talented photographers to compile these features. Also a huge shout out to the owners for working with us and being patient as we spend time producing the features.

I’ve known Mike Barr for many years. Barr and I go back to his 8thcivic days when he owned his old school Camaro as his show car. There have always been positive vibes whenever I’m around Mike and I admire that. It’s funny, sometimes you meet automotive enthusiasts and they can be socially awkward lol. However, around Mike he’s very informative and helpful if you ever needed to know something. 

I remember when Mike told me he purchased the GTR I couldn’t believe him. Haha, It’s not that these cars are hard to find but it’s always questionable the condition they will come in. I know Mike made many sacrifices to get the GTR. Also knowing it was his dream car it really connected as to why he took his time to build it. Like I said, I saw it when he first got it. I believe it was at a Reeves Gathering meet and I was wowed that he already started modifying it lol. It was literally a few months later and the car was completely different. I’m very happy for his accomplishment and I long to see where he goes with the build. I know with any performance modified car there’s the need for speed and I know he will manage it responsibly.

Please leave comments below if you'd like to see something different or have feedback.

Thanks,
Ross

Why do you love driving slow, or why not?

I built my car to drive it on the street and put a smile on my face as often as possible. Sometimes that comes from cruising around town at low speeds taking in the moment and enjoying the ride. Other times it could involve a pull and enjoying all the power, noise and theatrics that a 600hp+ big turbo RB26 creates.

 At the end of the day I wanted to build a car that I could thoroughly enjoy and be proud of in any scenario; on the street, at a show or on the track. This was my dream car as a kid, so when I got the opportunity to make that dream a reality I committed to making it my vision of the perfect BNR32
