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

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
