i noticed the factory BOVs are mounted in a nice open place so it won't be long before ricers have big flashy atmo bovs sticking out for everyone to see, LOL

ricers wouldnt be able to afford it no matter how many fake apexi badges they sold

Front is very 'Nissan Corporate' which is expected of a car to be of its time as a flagship of a range. That is the only thing I guess I personally don't love, because I am not a huge fan of Nissan's current front end or 'face' styling direction.

The rest is spot on and you can't deny the performance or value for money. :D

I love all of it apart from the front end...not too sure about the front bumper...but definitely wouldn't say no to one :P

Pretty much what I reckon, I actually preferred when the black continued the line of the lights. Aftermarket or Nismo new bars perhaps? :P

On the whole: Awesome.

makes it easy for H.P to see that they're plumbed back, too :P

I have a question...

why do they call it the "2008" gtr when its coming in 2007 in japan? is it gonna change at all before it gets to the US in 2008? if not, just call it the 2007 gtr and stop pretending it doesn't exist until the US has it...

After market front bars will be a welcome replacement option. :spank: Anyone else notice it has no rear window wiper? Is the exclusion for aero dynamic purposes I wonder? One cup holder with 2 seats in the back doesn't make sense either. :P

Not a big fan of the rear wing. Would look better IMO without a wing or with a 34 GTR style one.

Overall this is one nice car though. :P Nissan has done a very good job.

yep.. as for the V35

from those pictures, they're actually fairly similar save for the drivetrain

I for one LOVE it, looks very nice! ME WANTS ME WANTS!!!

there goes another Left Nut!!!

I would be more than to happily live with that everyday. This and the EVO X makes the new STi look VERY ordinary

good to see they haven't filled under the bonnet up with tupper ware. nothing worse than seeing miles of black plastic hiding all the goodies.

    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
