Can anyone confirm these specs posted up on the prestige motorsport website? They say that a 3.6L twin-turbo V6 pushing out ~450ps will be powering the new GT-R. Sports a new front kit as well...Certainly looking very aggressive, but gonna miss all that carbon fibre!

sounds a little over exagerated. 450PS is overkill! i was sure it was a 3.5L v6 using the Vq30 350z motor.. its a pitty i wish they continued using the RB26DETT. just use the z tune motor. the Attesa ETS should be quite the work of art.

reading motor:

cosworth tweaked 330kw 3.7 or 3.8l twin turbo v6 and could be RWD....

with lotus helping out with suspension

interesting....if it lobs into aus could expect a $200,000 price tag

motor also had a pic of the V35 not the GTR proto unveiled in japan. so i wouldnt go by what motor says. note they also messed up the times for the XR5 and VXR with the Z4 roadster and SLK55 AMG. amazing how they got the same time of 13.42 and 13.52. really good for a FWD hatch. Motor mag seems very informative..

The FR transaxel configuration for the Next GT-R has been old news... at least a year or more old.

I see engine capacities still being thrown around going from 3.2 right up to 3.8 now. The 3.2L capacity was to shorten the stroke, and completely change the characteristics of the VQ. As far as I know the engine is still VQ based, but I wouldn't rule out an almost completely different engine for the Next GT-R, but it'll probably be all but the basic block being the same as the VQ engines.

So until Nissan bring out more info, it's still: FR transaxel, V6 twin turbo, front wheels driven by electric motors with Li-Ion batteries, 7-speed sequential box (with or without a clutch pedal) and an incredibly quick reacting ATESSA system with each wheel controlled independently for torque, aswell as for braking assist.

      Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

      The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
