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?

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
