predator, I read in a Japanese car mag a few months back that Nissan has withdrawn the new GT-R from the Tokyo Show...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

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).

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

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?

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      Only if you do not You will not be able to drive it with any serious load without risk of it pinging, which will either slowly or rapidly kill it, depending on how bad it is.

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      By 677_GTR · Posted

      Hi guys, I’m new to the GTR scene. Picked up an R33 GTR earlier this year that needs a lot of love. I’ve been going through the hot side, changing all the gaskets and while it was all off I managed to score a set of -9s. It still had the stock ceramics so I was pretty happy to get the 2860s.  I live in a small country in the pacific with 0 performance car scene. No dyno’s no performance parts, let alone stock parts for a skyline. I order everything from Australia and do it myself. This means I’ll be running the stock ECU. Maybe down the track I’ll get an aftermarket set up and do a remote tune.  Will the car run -9s on stock tune safely?  I have a very heavy foot so I really hope so 😂   thanks guys

      Does RB25DE Neo lower intake work with RB25DET Neo Upper intake manifold?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'm not sure if it will bolt up, but.... I'm reasonably sure that the ID of the runners is somewhat smaller on the NAs. So it probably wouldn't be a good match at the flange where the top and bottom meet. So that would be a reason to not do it. And the skinny runners would be the bit you're keeping, which would be a reason to no do it. You'd want the big runners if you were doing any work to swap stuff. Why not just use what you've got, like nearly everyone else who has +T'd an NA? You don't need or want the TCS throttle or other stuff that is specifically DET inlet/crossover.
