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.....

    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
    • street use or race track, what hose size and why? what factors change with the hose size options ?   see most comon is an10. when you see most oem external coolers are closer to an12? does high volume oil pump like nitto need an12 or 10 be just fine
