The release date in Japan for the new GT-R has been confirmed for 24th October 2007.

For a track test video and techincal specs, see: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DWNPyuuefbQ

The price will be 7.7 million Yen cost price at Nissan Dealers in Japan. It will take SEVS workshops some time to obtain approval to comply this model, but as a guide, the FOB price on a new GT-R would be approx. 8.2 million Yen once Japanese registration and deregistration (required by Japanese law prior to exporting new cars), plus taxes etc. are taken into account. This would equate to about $126,000 complied,

I want aswell....

Yeah thats from prestigemotorsport^^, I thought though that there was rumours that Nissan were selling the GTR as a locally delivered model? There are rumours that there are a few people who have ordered the car too - would this be through nissan or are they just giving a deposit to an importer or something?

It looks pretty tuff, but no RB26?...

Its a shame that it wont be a proper GTR.

I absolutely hate this kind of thinking (along with "the V35 isn't a proper Skyline").

The RB26 would in stock form would be too weak to achieve the things Nissan want to do with the new GTR.

And nothing shows progress like putting in an engine with a 20 year old design in a new car... :D

SEVS? I thought they were going to sell them here new.

Not confirmed yet.

Who said that the rb26 would be in the same form it was 18 years ago, its like anything with age you make improvements.

ive got nothing against this new beast. but i think it should go by a different name. the GTR finished production in 2002 for a good reason.

its like a tv series, if you make to many shows people loose interest, sure the first few years may be great, but then the writers struggle to come up with new ideas and it becomes boring.

at the end of the day all im saying is a great new car should have a great new name, and maybe in the years to come this could be looked at as another one of nissan's greats.

    • How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.
    • 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/
