Sorry all - I have watched this thread appear and grow and I have ground my teeth each time it pops up at the top of the board.

Nissan have not produced an R-35 anything.

The R relates to the series of the engine, the R series engines were a straight six - now discontinued. They did however do a V-35 Skyline which was powered by a V6 engine.

Nissan have not based this GTR on any evolution of the Skyline, so it is not a even a Skyline, or an R anything as it dosent have an R series engine.

Nissan themselves have designated this car the NISSAN - GTR.

Thats it - no R - no 35, Just NISSAN GTR.

If this has already been mentioned please excuse me for not reading it - as you will understand I have not read any of this thread.

Rant over :blush:

um...........R32's came out in CA18's in certain variants

how is that following the same line of engines?

seriously go with it mate who cares

a GTR has to start with an R. just because its a GTR. it would be wrong if it was something else in my eyes

      I know -_- Oddly enough I went to a car show this weekend and not a single person made any mention of Nitrous... I did have to argue with a know it all that was convinced I had an RB26 head with HKS V-Cam as opposed to a regular VCT RB25 head, but what do I know. I think my HKS oil cap was throwing him off.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      That seems like a lot more work than just using a second jack under a front tow hook to raise it enough to get another jack under it.

      They're wonderful when only used to lift your car up an inch so a real jack fits under your front lip. Besides that, I've only ever used them on the side of the road.  We call them widow makers here.  Unfortunately, like I mentioned in another post, ramps are not an option for me due to generally working on my car once my kids are asleep. Cold starts, 4" exhaust and sleep rarely go well together. I honestly find using ramps a hell of a lot more work than what I'm currently doing anyways.

      Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
