(But as there ist some questions i may post it here aswell i hope ?)

Hi out there ! Just wanted to say hello to everybody. Yes, just to start: I´m living in northern Germany near the border to Denmark. I was just looking for some good & informative sites regarding the R35 and stopped at your place here. I have already found a lot of interesting issues and news, so thanks for that.

I´m looking forward to get my R35 (Premium Edition in silver).....and that will arrive (What a mess) in DECEMBER 2009 (!!!!!)

So here is my first querstion to you: As the realease for the r35 was confirmed and people started ordering the car, i expect that the new owners could log in on this special GT-R website (http://www.gtrnissan.com/) to check out when their car would arrive, or did you have other options ?

If so; how exact was the date you got there for the delivery ? Did it change as time passes by ? Or was the deliverydate fixed and your car came as expected ?

My dealer told me before i ordered that the R35 would be delivered i Germany starting march 2009 and he did expect that my car would come in septembre 2009 (As he could´nt give me any more accurate date before i finally ordered the car). I think it´s a very looooong time to wait, and i hope that Nissan raises the production so that they maybe (hopefully) produce more cars so i can get mine R35 before december 2009 :-)

Hmmm, meanwhile in the waitingtime i just finished my smaller version of the R35 (A imported 1:10 scale modell from Tamiya.....It really hits nearly 50km/h, that must be approx. 30 miles/h :-)

CU !

Christian

Dealers here have said March 2009 delivery from the very start of this year.

That has not changed, in their opinion.

I have put and order down, already. I hope they stick to their word.

I am not holding my breath though, I am expecting Apr or May 09, knowing what car salespeople are like.

By the way, I am going to Frankfurt in Feb 09.

Can you please tell me if the roads of the BlackForest and Nurbugring are snowed under in February?

Is it worthwhile going for a drive in those 2 locations?

Thanks.

Hi !

Normally february & march are the worst monthes to go t Germany. Everything is white & snowy. The last 3-4 years the winters have been quite harmless....so maybe you´re lucky :-)

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
