Not really pointless IMO as it shows how much a step forward in performance from the factory the R35 is, by comparing it to well regarded and tuned examples of former models

I've watched the DVD and at the end tsuchiya makes the remark that the r35 was faster in the corners, just the long straight was what kept the tuned cars in front

Best Motoring GTR Loaded DVD.

I got it and watched that race and it was nuts.

R32 GTR 400PS

R33 GTR 600PS (2.8lt stroker kit)

R34 GTR 600PS

R35 GTR Stock

At first I thought it was abit unfair to the R35 as all the other GTR's were tuned, but judging from the finish times, it came 3rd and the times were very close, all within a difference of seconds.

As for the R32 GTR, with only having 400PS, it still kept up very well and kept the race tight.

As keiichi Tsuchiya was saying, the tyres were starting to wear down and was slipping / lossing traction, which I believe due to the weight of the car and every setting set to R Mode, it gave the car a good thrashing.

Just goes to show how a stock R35 GTR can stand its ground up against highly tuned GTR's and only afew seconds slower is very impressive.

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
