Hey guys, well I have just got back from Top Secret and they are keeping their R35 project pretty hidden away and appear to be working furiously to get it to where they want it ready for Tokyo Autosalon in a few days time.

The only visible changes at this stage are some mild exterior touches, the usual Top Secret sticker collection and their trademark Rays GT-C's wheels with gold centres.

The photo isn't the best, its been very overcast today, and the workshop is closed off.

I feel sorry for the STI and EVOs, no one's even giving them a glance.

That's what Mitsubishi and Subaru get for releasing new vehicles within the same year as Nissan releases its GT-R. They should have either released them at the beginning of the year, or some time next year. :thumbsup:

Its like movies that had the same release date as the Star Wars: The Phantom Menace or Transformers. They weren't going to get a look-in on that weekend, no matter how good they might be in isolation.

The only companies that would have a hope of competing with the GT-R for attention would be if Honda released an all-new NSX. Even the Lexus LF-A, with its apparent GT-R beating Nurburgring time and F1-inspired V10 engine, doesn't have the history to match the hype surrounding the GT-R.

And the fronts look like they need less offset. There's not enough dish.

Part of the charm of the older GT-Rs is being able to run low offsets and get mad dish / concavity to make the car like super wide.

Agreed

isn't that an S2000 in the poster above it?

I don't know for sure, but if you look close enough at the poster, it shares the same style C pillar with the R35 GTR.

I can't make out whether it has the trade mark stove plates though.

Anyone else notice the GTR poster in the background (above GTR) with different body kit? Maybe a hint of what is to come?

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
