everytime i look at that orange gtr i think about how absolutely edible it is...

The orange one looks amazing in the flesh. The quality of the paint is superb. Car was stripped and done right.

Sat in it today and man those recaros are comfy.

vanilla closed down before last year, BB//

thats a definite no go. Unless they got it reopened somehow..??

really? d'oh. I was there in 2007 though so it can't have been closed before that. unless I dreamed it? bummer. I liked that place.

I don't like the orange...

I'm with you. I don't like the orange either (actually, I don't like orange cars in general). Its just a bit too "flat" for my liking (compared to it being a "hyper lemon" yellow instead, to use JUN terminology). If I wanted a really vibrant, stand out colour for a stand-out car (like, for example, a Lamborghini) then I'd want it bright yellow.

That said, I don't think the GT-R should look that. Its not a "tough" colour. If I afford one the only colours I'd consider would be a bright red (not the flat almost-maroon the car comes in but more like Ferrari's), Nismo silver (the Z-Tune hue), pearl white or jet black.

350 Zeds look better

*runs....

350 what? what is that?

i'm usually not a fan of orange either but having the black wheel makes it sooooo much better, but to look tough they need the big Amuse rear wing.

Dunno how you can say it looks flat. It's one of the least flat colours i could imagine. I dunno maybe you just need a better pic of it.

maybe he means milky flat...

mmmmmmmmmm.....milkyyyy flat bright orrranggge jaffffa GTRRRRRRRR grrahhh gglluurghh

So it seems the body kits have started, but what about mechanical upgrades - is anyone doing thm yet?

Not a lot really - Most of the big tuners are still in the prototype phase with their own parts and several cars like the Mines and HKS R35's were said to be running test or prototype versions of the F-Con or VX Tuned Rom.

I overheard Trust talking about their GTR, and they actually say that the car is very difficult to modify and it will be some time before any real performance parts or upgrades are ready.

From what I saw yesterday, the HKS car had the most in the way of obvious visual engine bay changes, but these were only a pair of HKS Sequential BOV's to replace the stockers, a polished hard piping kit and HKS pod filters.

Top Secret GTR looks hotter, with bigger, darker rims it'll be awesome.

The orange R35 is equivalent to a big, oiled up pole-dancer. Too much sex, not enough foreplay.

Smokey is good at foreplay methinks :whistling:

R35 bodykits will be interesting, but i'm DHYING to see what mechanical mods the big tuners will come up with.

Can't wait to hear a 1000hp VR38 blaze through Tsukuba :D

And some Tsuchiya R35 touge videos, maybe even against R32/3/4 GTRs!

Yeah so nothing meaningful yet

Ya. DCD from the UK forums tried to tell Top Secret about the spelling error but there's not much they can do in the midst of Auto Salon so it went on show exactly like that. Except with more hotties standing on it posing. Pics in a sec.

    • Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.
    • I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box 
    • So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.
    • Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo   
    • Very hard to make out what you mean, is it the squarish hole with redline shockproof (probably) under it? Is that pic from on top of the engine with the firewall to the left of pic and engine to the right? Either way, spray the area liberally with degreaser and try again, maybe circle the part you are worried about
