Ive been thinking alot about the new R35 and how much of an awesome car it is. Something that ive been wondering is how many fat bald middle aged men are going to buy them and think they rule the road over all the other "import" skylines.

Do you think that what we need is Fat Bald Middle aged Men Mind control helmets to stop them thinking such thoughts.

Actually I guess the only people worried about them thinking these thoughts are people who can read thier minds as they drive down the road, like you?

With such an abillity, perhaps you are a ninja and can bring us all justice on the issue .As it indicates from your website; www.realultimatepower.net

No you will not be able to afford it by working at a local Safeway/Coles stacking shelves or flipping burgers at Maccas/Hungry's.

However in saying so, 150 K is not much for a car these days. You just need to get a decent paying job, stop wasting money on booze, smokes, useless mods and partying... save, save and save.

Make sure you own a house before you go out to buy the GTR. And off course, dont be a dumb ass by buying it off the showroom for 150 K... wait anothr 3-4 years and buy it for 120 or so...

I'd love to have one next year, but currently I need to buy my first real estate... so the car can wait, plus I have my R33 to play around with... it aint an R35 GTR but still fun.

I'm 26, make a bundle of cash, have my own house but, I'm content to throw my money at my 32 that cost me 11k.. each to their own.. like others have said, I can't justify buying a car off the showroom floor!

Yea, Thats true i am in the same boat id rather throw money at my 33.

congrats to those who have placed an order with nissan for the limited numbers that are coming here.

i always have a rule of thumb when buying or budgeting for a vehicle;

income per annum= total price of the car

eg: if you earn 50000 pa, max car price should be no more than that :D

P.S. funky munky, did you go to Epping boys? meant to asked you years ago but didnt.

Im a driving enthusiast... I enjoy the drive more in certain types of cars as compared to others. I would enjoy that experience in many vehicles regardless of badge... The better the performance of the vehicle.... handling...accel..decel the more I find I enjoy that experience. The r35 would garner some sweaty palms, a hard on and a smirk that would make a hoore blush..... but the means I have are restricted so i drive a 33t... I still get plenty of enjoyment out of it... I think it's pretty in a too long kind of way but get her out an screaming ... you know what im talking about..

we should start a petition for our own nordeshliefe! SERIOUSLY!

    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
    • I suppose it was relatively stock too, the JZ motor handle most mods thrown at them without even breaking a sweat 
    • I saw your intro update, are you sure you've actually had a starter motor failure? You mention it could be the alarm causing it. I'm assuming you've got a no start issue, but what are the exact symptoms, as there could be a few reasons it has stopped wanting to start.
