A local owner and I were contacted through a local online car forum to do an article in the Halifax Chronicle Harolds "Wheels" section. Here's how it turned out!
Hope you enjoy!

That wasn't my interior but I have the same problem. I'd love to match my seats! I'm figuring I'll offer to trade my Recaro for an OEM GTR seat one of these days. The Recaro is soo comfi though!

Heaven forbid it detected a little slip or loss of traction, and as much as 50 per cent of the torque could be sent to the front wheels to help pull the car out of trouble.

incorrect

The downside of the race-tuned ATTESA system is it’s not meant for winter driving, Barker and Goodine agree.
more false it is designed for low traction situations where ever they appear.

The real party piece of the R32 was trick ATTESA ETS (you don’t want to know what that stands for) system which sent most of the torque to the rear under normal conditions
it all went to the rear under normal conditions

ferrari 355 is easily faster then a stock gtr. it had 100 more prancing horses under the bonnet.

McFly I love your adhesion and passion for the facts, I'm the same way. If I was ever looking for info you'd be the first guy I'd seek out but what media coverage have you ever read that was accurate and factual on these cars.
It was a 22 year old who's information was probably taken mostly from Wikipedia and who knows where else and then edited by some guy who doesn't know anything about cars.
It was a fun read and some positive exposure for the cars we love.
Now go drink a Kokanee! ;)

however they did not mention the magical 1000HP chip
