Posted this in the next Skyline section but fits in here as well.

The new GTR around Laguna Seca, up against 911TT, and the guys filming hand timed the GTR going around quicker.

Also seen a shot from the same people, but couldn't see it in the article which shows a twin turbo engine with paddle shift gearbox.

it's not a f*cking skyline!!!!!!!!!

It's a NISSAN GTR. my goodness, it's not that hard to take on board...

Yes its called the Nissan GT-R, but cant you see the inheritance it gets from all the skylines?

I wouldn't want it to be a skyline anyways, the V35/36 already ruined skylines, they never should have made them.

oh for sure it's part of the skyline lineage in a sense, but if any of these "reputable" places are paying attention for 1 second about this car, they would have realised that from the CEO's very own mouth, it's a Nissan GTR. The 'GTR' is its own model now. Whether it will be like that forever, who knows... but for now, that's the way it is. You can't call a car something that it isn't.

And for goodness sakes, it's being released this year, quit with the 2009 crap already.

V35 V36 screwed skylines? Where on earth did you get this idea from? They are brilliant cars and are a much better package the the previous cars. Ohh wait it doesn't have a turbo can't be good eh. Maybe you are thinking of a different bunch of cars when you think of skylines, but from what I know of the lineage V35 and V36 fit in perfectly. As does the timing of the New GTR.

Here Here!!!!!!

OH wait the R30 did that too, funny that, isnt that a cult classic car?

have you ever driven a 350z. Before you say silly comments like the v35 ruined skylines you should they are an incredible engine, sooo much torque, so smooth, and yet so economical, my mums 350z gets 10.5l/100km AROUND TOWN, sure she drives conservatively but no matter how you drive your RB sereis you aint ever going to get that low.

Cant wait for the driveline info to come out.....

    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
