Man that article is from January :P It's a shame but only 3 GT-Rs have been pranged so far as far as anyone knows. 2 majorly in SE Asia and one small minor one in Japan.

You know it wont be the last time Sewid.

If the Donut boys get it wrong in Tassie...welll.. lets just keep our fingers crossed that doesnt happen.

So far five have been trashed at Fuji Speedway and three at Tsukuba. Apparently their black box blacks out when things get over a certain limit and sends itself, and the car, into the closest wall.

I seriously doubt that, it may be what the drivers excuse is though

Stephen youre going to have to qualify that comment cause it sounds like bullshit to me.

Hmm normally something like that many cars would come up on my radar but I haven't seen anything yet. I'm not doubting you im just wondering how to get more info.

How can you tell that. Must be a few silver ones going around.

This photo was taken at the Shinagawa NHPC though. I've had that confirmed by someone who went there Friday.

I was only foolin around. His is white anyways :blush: :blush:

2 which have been reported. One smashed in HK, now one smashed in Malaysia, but yeah, probably more have bitten it as well...

i'm sorry, i'm asian (well half) and when i got to the mostly asian suburbs for food, whatever... IMO the driving is proportional worse than other areas... which i think is more due to what they're use to experiencing, rather than a deficiency of skill. It's not horribly unsafe driving, just 'bad' driving. Not saying all are bad, perhaps that there is an over-representation of bad driving in predominantly asian suburbs

have you driven in Malaysia? that's some scary shit right there my friend... but that's just the normal for that part of the world...

yup i agree, if you have driven in indonesia, Philipina, vietnam or whatever you'll know that it's not 'asian' that can't drive but it's the way they drive, there barely any rule axcept red light...

and they think white boys can't drive either 'coz you guys follow rules..

If the car is being "thrashed" the ECU drops into limp mode.

This has been an issue on one of the US R35's

I would imagine if your right up it and half way round a corner it cuts the power that might be enough to loose it.

Ill guarentee it will be one of the first electronic mods that will become available for the R35 " deactivating Limp mode"

I've thrashed a R35 and it didn't suddenly go into limp mode. 4,000 people have thrashed their R35's and they didn't go into limp mode.

There is a limp mode but it's got nothing to do with thrashing the shit out of the car.

Here is how the original car looked before the crash...(note logo on passenger side top windscreen)

Mate of mine in Singapore imported this in and I was due to go chk it out last month when I was there....pity I couldn't make it otherwise this pic would have me standing next to it as a before photo!

Most of the performance bits have already been stripped out..and the owner has another one on order already apparently...

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
