There are quite a few Americans that like the winding road, circuit racing, and auto cross.

Unfortunately, with NASCAR their biggest motorsport series (like our V8 Supercars) so people assume that's their thing.

Just like I don't give a flying f**k about two mechanically identical cars with fake taxi bodies, a lot of Americans don't give a stuff about NASCAR.

Anyway, here's Clarkson's review of the current Z06. And here's Tiff's.

Both are guys that don't have much time for American motorvated sofas, and they both love the circuit behavior of the Z06.

yep ill take one!! sign me up, i think its a hot thing, just hope its got some good technology under the skin. hopefully the french people will still let the japanese people to build the ultimate supercar.

Not to open a can of worms, but...

The Chevy Z06 is a massive amount of car for the money. Something like $60,000 for a car that compete with cars costing twice as much. Even though it's GM, will likely fall apart in about 5 years, and every douchebag down the street will own one, they're still a force to be reckoned with. It should be interesting to see how these two cars match up--Best Motoring or Top Gear, are you listening?

The G35 is NOT a Skyline. The fact that some idiot at Nissan decided to call it a Skyline to please you couch-racers is also irrelevant. The G35 bears absolutely no resemblance to the GTR 32, 33, or 34 in any shape way or form. Some idiot at Nissan thought to play off the name and some of you gullible souls probably bought it so you could brag that you haved a Skyline. Well sorry you do not. You have a nice car, but its not a Skyline.

someone should break it to the poor boy that the R30 was a bastard child of the C210 Skyline... which then evolved to the R31 and consequently R32.

The Infiniti G35 is a "Skyline" since its identical to the JDM Skyline of the current era. Its a logical "clean sheet" continuation of the R3x series.

Otherwise, someone ask the poor boy if the R32-R34s were "playing off the" name since they have no resemblance to the original KPGC10 :(

    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
    • For DBA, check out their guide table here. https://dba.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Direct_Replacement-Guide-2021.2.pdf   Additionally they have some other guides and info on how to make sure you choose the right pad.
    • Sorry, just assumed that talk of coloured pads meant EBC red/green/yellow/shit stuff. I don't know the DBA pads, but it's a reasonable bet that they will be OK. DBA make good stuff generally. Those 4000 series rotors I linked to are very good. I may well replace the RDA rotors I have with those when required.
