I'm not totally convinced about the R35 interior. For a performance car, it's just too busy. Looks more like a luxury car interior than a performance car interior, seats don't quite match the image of the car and that centre cosole, it's a monstrosity. I think the R34 interior looks better.

What do you think?

and if you're a big tall white guy you're gonna need all that space... so hope your passengers don't have legs.

That was one of my first thoughts about the interior of a sports car.... Whats with all the Buttons? and the speakers inbetween the rear passenger seats!?? Its a bit like a Mitsubishi 3000GT Interior.

I personally hope the V-Spec edition is more about business and less gimmick...

Pass judgement once you've sat in one. Its a real nice place to be.

Yes there are buttons and dials everywhere, but thats how high end cars are these days.

I sat in one in Ginza on Saturday Night and then again on Sunday - It was gorgeous.

aahh... looks like a 2 + 2 to me? :)

FINALLY someone has designed the main control area to be tilted higher towards the roof! Makes it sooo much easier to use the central controls as opposed to a flat face design. I don't know why car companies don't do this more.

Vents are very Porsche/Ferrari aren't they? I thought they use those big circular vents as well... and is that leather across the top? I thought i saw stitching to the right of the steering wheel, that's a real nice touch IMO

I reckon the interior is RAD, especially love the angle of the control area under the MFD

I hate the round vents. First time i saw them was in a Toyota Echo and they just seem cheap and nasty to me. I'm sure they work great, but they aren't aesthetically pleasing to me. As for the rest of it... i like it. Looks like a comfy place to be.

I pretty much like everything except for the single cup holder in the back. They could have at least had 2... or none.

The vents do suck, but they remind me of S15 vents so they're not too bad. I think they could have finished them more nicely with some chrome ring surrounds. The gear shift/box looks a little plain too.

But I LOVE all the gadgets! :P:thumbsup: Have always liked the push button start since the Honda S2000 aswell. Nice touch.

don't know why, maybe it's tradition, but round vents have been the staple for some of the top cars...

round vents just seem to be the "thing" for a top shelf performance car

why do only the top performance cars get this nice upwards tilt of the console area....sooooo much more user friendly the flat face crap we get in most cars

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.

      Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?

      See if you can thermal epoxy a heatsink or two onto it?

      The other problem was one of those "oh shit we are going to die moments". Basically the high spec Q50s have a full electric steering rack, and the povo ones had a regular hydraulic rack with an electric pump.  So couple of laps into session 5 as I came into turn 2 (big run off now, happily), the dash turned into a christmas tree and the steering became super heavy and I went well off. I assumed it was a tyre failure so limped to the pits, but everything was OK. But....the master warning light was still on so I checked the DTCs and saw – C13E6 “Heat Protection”. Yes, that bloody steering rack computer sitting where the oil cooler should be has its own sensors and error logic, and decided I was using the steering wheel too much. I really appreciated the helpful information in the manual (my bold) POSSIBLE CAUSE • Continuing the overloading steering (Sports driving in the circuit etc,) “DATA MONITOR” >> “C/M TEMPERATURE”. The rise of steering force motor internal temperature caused the protection function to operate. This is not a system malfunction. INSPECTION END So, basically the electric motor in the steering rack got to 150c, and it decided to shut down without warning for my safety. Didn't feel safe. Short term I'll see if I can duct some air to that motor (the engine bay is sealed pretty tight). Long term, depending on how often this happens, I'll look into swapping the povo spec electric/hydraulic rack in. While the rack should be fine the power supply to the pump will be a pain and might be best to deal with it when I add a PDM.

      And finally, 2 problems I really need to sort.  Firstly as Matt said the auto trans is not happy as it gets hot - I couldn't log the temps but the gauge showed 90o. On the first day I took it out back in Feb, because the coolant was getting hot I never got to any auto trans issues; but on this day by late session 3 and then really clearly in 4 and 5 as it got hotter it just would not shift up. You can hear the issue really clearly at 12:55 and 16:20 on the vid. So the good news is, literally this week Ecutek finally released tuning for the jatco 7 speed. I'll have a chat to Racebox and see what they can do electrically to keep it cooler and to get the gears, if anything. That will likely take some R&D and can only really happen on track as it never gets even warm with road use. I've also picked up some eye wateringly expensive Redline D6 ATF to try, it had the highest viscosity I could find at 100o so we will see if that helps (just waiting for some oil pan gaskets so I can change it properly). If neither of those work I need to remove the coolant/trans interwarmer and the radiator cooler and go to an external cooler....somewhere.....(goodbye washer reservoir?), and if that fails give up on this mad idea and wait for Nissan to release the manual 400R
