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?

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!!

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.

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.

+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 :)

      I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
