Saw some chatter regarding this in another thread but only pix available.

I have found some footage of the New GTR in testing at the Nurburgring. Privately recorded, This isnt any offical release of media. (spy footage) Teaser for all you fellow Skyline lovers :thumbsup:/

As far as I am concerned... the only true Skylines were the R32, R33 & R34... the rest are not Skyline like...

That's why it's called the Nissan GTR, not Skyline.

Believe it or not when the R34 came out there was a lot of people saying that that wasn't a real skyline as well. Probably the same for the R33, R32 etc.

As for the true Skyline, I think the C10 owns that name. The Skyline was around way before the r32.

Before the turbos Skylines were N/A including the legendary C10. They then went turbo and are now going back to N/A, who knows what will happen next. As for factory performance the V35 350GT Coupe, is a better performer all round compared to the R34 Gtt. Quicker out of the box, much much better interior.

As much as some Skyline lovers, love the turbo's, I'm pretty sure Nissan is more interested in selling as much cars as possible, instead of catering to the relatively small, grey import market in Australia, and other countires. All you have to do is look at how successful the V35 (G35) has been in the US, and you can bet your a$$ that they won't be going to an R34 like Skyline any time soon.

Personally I think the new GTR finally has the body and look to match it's performance.

But I'm probably a bit biased, seeing as I've bought a V35 :-)

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?

    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
