sewid Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Mine's have posted a 59.3 around Tsukuba with their full Mine's spec GT-R. Modified suspension, ECU, exhaust, brakes etc. Mines’s have solidly broken into the 59’s around Tsukuba by posting a 59.367 with their modified R35 GT-R. Modifications include full Mine’s Spec III suspension (Sachs dampers, Eibach springs), Mine’s VX ROM ECU, Mine’s Silence-VX Pro Titan II exhaust and upgraded Mine’s brake rotor kit (400mm front rotors). Driving the GT-R was Tetsuya Yamano.To compare against standard GT-Rs, the best we have seen is 1.01.9 posted by MCR when their car was still standard. Other quick times for modified cars have been a 1.00.2 by Amuse with their modified GT-R.

phenline Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 i guess there would be alot more to come from it as well? Was that time with gutter interior etc. etc.? or did it still have all trim? I still dont think it could break that HKS evo time Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/206892-mines-gt-r-breaks-into-the-59s-at-tsukuba/#findComment-3659269 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beer Baron Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 yeah it's been on the mines website for a little while now. I'm not sure when they ran the time though.

Roy Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 It will be really interesting to see hwo the R35 goes at the goat track. Big heavy car and constant changes of direction. I iamgine its going to be huge dollars to get them down to the sort of weight that will make them competitive with the R34s and EVOs etc Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/206892-mines-gt-r-breaks-into-the-59s-at-tsukuba/#findComment-3660125 Share on other sites More sharing options...

sewid Posted February 20, 2008 Author Share Posted February 20, 2008 So. hows this time compare to others? Anyone got a list? Standard R35 GT-R best time was 1.01.9 or so. Z-Tune R34 GT-R was 1.00 Power House Amuse Time Attack R35 GT-R was 1.00.2 in January Most recent Evo X does 1.06.46 Most recent STi does 1.05.95 There are a lot of other times for cars like Ferrari 430 and 360 CS but I don't know the sources of those times.

sh@un Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 so- nowhere near the pace of the old white 34, then. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/206892-mines-gt-r-breaks-into-the-59s-at-tsukuba/#findComment-3660636 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sewid Posted February 20, 2008 Author Share Posted February 20, 2008 so- nowhere near the pace of the old white 34, then. The Mine's 34 does a 57 sec with 580ps.

N1GTR Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Cant compare the two just yet IMO as MINES needs more time to develop the R35, they set the benchmark very high with the R34 though Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/206892-mines-gt-r-breaks-into-the-59s-at-tsukuba/#findComment-3660842 Share on other sites More sharing options...
grandmasterb Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Cant compare the two just yet IMO as MINES needs more time to develop the R35, they set the benchmark very high with the R34 though Couldn't agree more, they set the bar so high with the R34 its going to take a bit to beat it with the R35. I for one hope they do it and set the bar even higher again Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/206892-mines-gt-r-breaks-into-the-59s-at-tsukuba/#findComment-3660970 Share on other sites More sharing options...
R338OY Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 We can trust this is an indication that Mine's will be the bar-setter for the R35.

Roy Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 And wasnt the R34 an N1 to start with? Then on top of that they have carbon boot, carbon propshaft, titanium exhaust etc. So the car isnt exactly std weight. The N1 is already lighter, so all up could be 80-100kgs lighter then a std car. I woudl love to tap the doors on the Mines R34 to see if it also has carbon doors...so wll be interesting to see what Mines do next to the car to get it quicker then the R34 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/206892-mines-gt-r-breaks-into-the-59s-at-tsukuba/#findComment-3661183 Share on other sites More sharing options...
