I went to Jamboree at Willowbank raceway on the weekend and saw the new R35 Gt-r skyline up close, they are an awesome looking car and go hard as well. It ran 11 seconds and that was just standard! :blink: Apparently the guy wasn't allowed to drive it in Australia as they aren't approved over here yet, shame really they would be a really nice car to drive. :action-smiley-069:

I was in surfers paradise on the weekend and didnt even know Jamboree was on till the next day :( so sad.... what colour was the r35 gtr?

hey all

just got back from japan last week and saw a few r35 gtrs over there. Most were in outer osaka and saw one in tokyo too. Didnt see any in the nissan show rooms at all :blink:

ive attached a pic of one i saw in shinsubushi area

Awesome pic :(

I wouldnt be happy with that damn bike wheel on my new GTR though!!! :action-smiley-069:

I am leaving Tokyo this evening, and I did just alittle better....

I actually took this Black Premium edition for a spin :blink::(

It`s been said a thousand times already and having owned prior generation GTR`s from the R32 to the R34. what Nissan have created with this car is not a new model...it truly is a new benchmark...

What really amazes me about the R35 is how un-photogenic it is...... I think its looks fairly average in the thousands of pictures we see day in, day out - Let me tell you guys, the car in the flesh is astonishing...and the sound of it...its honestly comparable to the RAW sound of a Ferrari 360.........as for the performance...well...that needs another thread :action-smiley-069:

Enjoy

That black one is HOT!!

Oh you missed a good one this year, the kiwis ran 6.8 secs in there toyota! The gt-r was a grey colour i got some photos of it ill see if it will let me load them on, its such a nice looking car. The Godzilla gt-r ran a 7.9 also very impressed skylines didnt too bad this year but that one blew me away!post-51145-1219760742_thumb.jpgpost-51145-1219760866_thumb.jpg

DAMM shattered if i knew there would b a r35 gtr i would of gone for sure. Oh well ill just watch top gear again it makes me happy lol

oo tuff pics..... such a sexual car cant wait to get my gtr tuned.

Sorry to come across as sceptical but the rental place ( which i can tell it is from the photos ) just let you loose in the R35 with an international license...?

LOL dude you seriously suck so bad... you have the charm and grace of a chainsaw.

How すっぱい are those ぶどう

if have to disagree with that 100000000% - i agree the car looks very nice in the flesh, however the banshee scream of a ferrari V8 is ALWAYS going to trounce a nissan 6 cyl im sorry. there are a few GTRS here now and yes they are quick and look nice but they do not sound great at all. nothing on a 360 stradale or a F430.

Hey thats Den den town in Osaka right? I was there a couple of weeks ago.

I've only seen 2 GTRS and I've been here for over 3 weeks now!

Both the GTR's I've seen were in Kyoto. Having said that I'm in Beppu now, which isn't really the busiest place.

however the banshee scream of a ferrari V8 is ALWAYS going to trounce a nissan 6 cyl im sorry

+1. Personally, I prefer the 355 + mille miglia; I'd buy a 355 just for the sound. It doesn't go better than my GTR, but it definitely sounds better :)

Saliya

    • Impossible to remove the housing while turbo is installed on the manifold on the engine. So I have to do it anyways. I plugged it so there will not be any debris in there. Will vacuum aswell 
    • would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)    
    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
