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.

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By patrickxdf12 · Posted

      Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4

      S15 Spec R

      By RP1421 · Posted

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
