Just thought I'd start with the hype a little to the official unvealing of the final R35 GT-R production version ...

[pentae]

hopefully it will be good enough to dramatically drive down the price of the R34.. which means.. cheaper R34's for us! wooohoo.

predator, I read in a Japanese car mag a few months back that Nissan has withdrawn the new GT-R from the Tokyo Show...

I think I posted that news up around that time too?

[Driver]

im guessing no1 knows what it looks like?

[cobo_11]

if it ain't got 6 straight cyclinders, it ain't a true godzilla

agree or disagree, my 2cents anyway

[cobo_11]

ps: check out the new SPEED mag, I've just glanced at it, but I think they reckon the prototype in the mag is what the "GT-R" (see above) will look like

i heard something like that soon...that i wont be ready or something.

[Demon Dave]

I heard the same thing - but you never know, a new GTR concept may make an appearance, even if the final "production" version doesn't. Regardless, from what I've been told, the event itself is one not to be missed.

I'll be going

[Sonic]

It's probably gunna look like a beastie G35. That's what the smart money's on...

[Nu2skylines]

Here's what I found on the "new" R35 GTR. Of course, as everyone knows the stats and the body will probably not look like that when/if they go into production.

Concept from Nissan

Hey, Demon Dave when are you planning on going? My friend is coming in from the States at the end of Oct and we are planning on going on the 27th or 28th?

So THATS where all that "V8 GT-R" bizzo comes from...

...coz theres certainly no mention of it here, just the 3.2L twin-turbo V6 (based on the JGTC engine).

[R32_GODZILLA]

This is an article i have had scanned from the most recent Wheels magazine, its on the GT-R ofcourse.

if the pic doesnt show u can find it here:

gop into my documents and open the pic.

V8 GT-R? Hmmm, more American wishful thinking?

Serveral sources close to Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn have been quoted as confirming the Yanks would get a stroked version of the Infiniti Q45 bent-eight while other markets get TT V6...

Speed mag had a test of the HKS TT G35 Coupe in the latest issue. Apparently it uses Garrett turbos and looks very OEM, AND it apparently also had Nissan stamps on some of the custom pipe and intercoolers

yes i remeber/ have heard the same thing...

anyways im relying on one of you guys over in japan to go and take photos either way.!

[R32_GODZILLA]

Sorry, the article was scanned from the most recent Motor magazine not Wheels magazine. For some reason the 1st link doesnt work, the 2nd one i posted does. i just cant figure out how to post the pic to show on the post.

dont know if the info o the article is anything new to you guys but it sounds like the car will be awesome.

[Rezz]

Guys, I'm hardcore GT-R fan just as much you are... and I only want to present facts, thats why I wrote this post about the V35 GT-R...

I feel relieved that that link in R32 GODZILLAS post above backs up what I wrote... finally (and in English too!)

I also saw in that article that R32 GODZILLA posted, and I quote:

"The next V35 GT-R Supercar won't be a V8. But don't worry."

Who the f*cks worrying??? I'm GLAD the GT-R's not a V8...

...oh, and Goshn's a tool.

Money permitting... but the other half will probably want to tag along. What about your other half Dave?

[Demon Dave]

My wife will be coming along aswell I imagine, and my 3 year old too - he wouldn't miss it for the world 'cause he's more of a car nut than I am

[akeenan]

i will be there next year
