R35 Gtr Z Tuned

[GUN_METAL_GTR32]

hay boys and girls.

do u reckon that nizmo will make a z tune version of the r35 gtr????

[funkymonkey]

they'll probably wanna release R tune's first, most probably after their JGTC cars rack up some victories.

[sewid]

Unlikely they would do that for the foreseeable future as Z-Tune really does mean the final tune they will do for a car. Give it 6-7 years maybe.

i c

thats fair enough.

i thought z tune meant like extreme limited edition or something like that

cheers

[funkymonkey]

there's S (Street?) Tune, R (Race?) Tune and finally Z Tune, which is meant to be the "ultimate tune that won't be bettered"... so it'd be in your best interest to not put out a Z Tune a month after the car's launched in a possible 5 year production run.

Nismo will DEFINITELY want to TUNE an R35 to CAPITALISE on the tidal wave of it's popularity.

They're going to have an international consumer pool, many of them fat Americans with heavy pockets.

A Z-tune, or whatever they will call it, is as likely to be built as mammals need to breathe.

They'll also want to have a hand in adding art to engineering beauty.

Nice photochop, straight to the desktop for me .

I don't agree at all. I would wager there will be no R35 GTR Z tune. The Z tune was made for a couple of special events.

they commemorated nismo's 20th anniversary by building 20 special cars

they commemorated the ceasing of production of the LAST SKYLINE GTR by producing their FINAL tuned version. the Z tune.

I'm sure they will make parts for the new GTR, and they will almost certainly produced a lightly tuned version or versions (small power upgrade, slightly different body kit etc) like they currently do with the 350Z and like they have done in the past with the skyline GTRs, but I would highly doubt there will be an R35 GTR Z-tune. it just doesn't make sense.

Nice Photoshop pic!

Don't think Z-Tune will be around for a while. Wait a couple of years.

[bnr#@]

Nismo will make an s tune first as they always do then prob an r tune a bit later

[nick33gtr]

The first proto-type R34 Z Tune hit the tracks for testing in 2001...3 years after the R34 was released.

They will probably release a sports tune S1 package then an Race tune package R1 and maybe a Z tune after...?

[gun32gtr]

it just got set to my desktop also...looks sweet as

[R34NOS]

man photochop looks hot as..on my work and home laptop.looks madddd

Nismo don't make any S-Tune anything anymore so there will be no light tune R35 GT-R from Nismo. Nissan make all the S-Tune stuff now but will unlikely go much further than stickers and aero parts to retail at dealerships.

That does not rule out an R-Tune version and I'm guessing this is already in development. Nismo have a lot on their plate though developing the SuperGT car so I think this is not a priority.

Agreed there wont be a Z TUNE. But im 100% sure there will be some other special model to come few years down the track.

33 - 400R

34 - Z tune

35 - ??

I'd hazard a guess that the racing development team and the consumer product development team are seperate... and once the former collects enough data on parts then the latter will set about making products for consumer use.
