Serious question, because no ones really mentioned the 35 in drag yet, and we know what the Willall boys like to do :)
Donut King did paint theirs pink, I'd say that's a "35 in drag". :)

Word on the street is that this is going to be a showcase car for the fabrication and tuning work that Willall can do - and their aim is over 500rwkw!

They are after everyone who buys an R35GTR to come to them for parts, tuning, service etc and will provide the highest level of technology and reliability to an already amazing platform.

ROFL Ash :)

I still have 2 valuations to type yet before I go to bed ;) .... what's your excuse for still being up? :)

yeah but its no longer in sydney

so first registered in sydney

first living in adelaide

as it was only in sydney for compliance it wasnt really living there :) if that makes sense :mad:

read the thread heading guys.......nothing about Adelaide being the 1st to have a 35 registered here.....it says Willall Racing Buys Australia's First Official Complied/street Registered R35gtr......doesn't say that it wasn't registered in NSW 1st
bah, just the easterners trying to claim it as their own ;)

Go easy guys. I was just clarifying what Jess has said (as quoted) not the entire thread.

:)

Was work for me too, blasted test plans :happy: , there are few things more boring.

Would be cool to see it out at mallala.

Strap some full slicks on to the sucker. :happy:

We know were are the better state anyway............... :D

You can keep your morning air quality reports....

We have nothing of the like over here. :D:(:)

Wow, lots of emotion in this thread - about all sorts of things!

I look forward to seeing this thing in the flesh, I'm sure the pics don't do the metal justice.

I'll be interested to see how long Munro can hold off grabbing one!

I'll also be keen to see how the development of the car progresses, particularly with respect to the ECU tuning.

Properly tuned factory ECUs can produce some fantastic results without suffering the horrible compromises of many aftermarket solutions.

Hugely so. My mechanic has a really cute saying ... "Theres no substitute for cubic inches... unless its cubic feet..."

unless its a falcodore :) seems no matter how big they build that damn engine it still go's down

maybe if you bored ya rb26 out another 1.1L it might be closer :)

a rotary is an exception.

The Fg 310 seems to be pretty good car though.

same rule applies with rotangs my boy.

throw some more cubes at it and watch the kw figures soar.

Looks amazing. The white is a great colour for it too, so classy and would set off the carbon fibre bits well.

Hope to see it cruising around soon enough.

Yeah, thanks Chops, you know it. I am holding myself back at the moment & will definately buy one. Just need to calm down a bit as I have already bought a few different cars this year & need to get my garages sorted out before I buy anymore. ie I need to free up some storage space & cant seem to decide what to let go. The R35 is F*%^in SICK & needs to be driven hard & modified to its full potential & I Want one as bad as the next guy, but all good things come to those who wait & it seems the the GTR legend is here to stay.

My 11 year old R33 is one of the craziest street cars in Adelaide ( anyone who has been in the hills with me will vouch for that) & my other R33 race GTR which will soon be ready for Mallala will be a dream come true for me as far as fun factor goes, so I just want to savour the "old generation" for a little bit more before delving into what is do doubt the best car money can buy under 200K.

Will watch with great anticipation to see how the "first" R35 goes. Keir told me today that they have already put a much better exhaust on it & it sounds like a "real" GTR now.

Remember, while "newer" is usually better in regards to technology, there can never be a replacement for the old school style,

& it will be a long time before an R35 can go flying past a properly sorted R34 or R33.

Hello new world of GTRs, & after years of drooling over photos on the net we can actually see & play with them.

Those of you who are reading this & are younger than me (that wont be hard - I was born when HQs were new!) wont really appreciate how far we have come - but believe it... We live in very exciting times. Soak it up. It may not last for long....

Definitely.. I feel sad for my young lad. By the time he's old enough to drive a car the roar of a petrol motor may very well be a thing of the past.

    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
    • Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.  
    • I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
    • Yeah I've had too many issues with knock off's on the BMW's. I don't want to do a job twice or more because the parts are shit.
