The V35 Skyline Sedan official designation is:

UA-PV35.

The V35 Skyline Coupe official designation is:

UA-CPV35.

I`m REALLY suprised that alot of people on this *Skylines* Australia forum still call it an R35. Aren`t you guys Skyline enthusiasts?

By getting the name wrong, we`re disrespecting the latest Skyline incarnation. This is not a rant, it`s just that I really want SAU Forums to be THE English Language Skyline Information base that all people look to for accurate information.

I`m not trying to score points here or trying to look like *the man*, I just want this forum to be the best there is.

You say the new GT-R is a *totally* different car, yet you still think the chassis designation is in accordance with previous RB engined GT-R`s so your calling it an "R"35?

That doesn`t make sense.

And no, the whole "The New GT-R is a Whole different car from the Skyline" is just bollocks that Carlos Gohsn told the AMERICAN press. They (well, Gohsn) can`t sell the GT-R under the Infinity label, so they have to go a different route. But who cares what they`re doing in the US anyway?

In Japan (the only place that matters when it comes to Skylines and the GT-R), there is no difference between the Skyline and the GT-R. There will be no differentiation between them. The GT-R will be know as the V35 (Skyline) GT-R. That makes sense, doesn`t it?

And remember, my original post in this thread was talking about the Sedan and Coupe, NOT about a car that hasn`t even been released yet...

IT'S NOT A FREAKIN SKYLINE. it's an independant model (like 200SX) that is the top, bestest, most beaut car in the whole nissan portfolio.

I see you used the "200SX" as an example there Sonic, but there is no 200SX in Japan... so your actually referring to what the GT-R will be marketed as *in Australia* are you not?

**I only ever refer to Japan fellas, I don't know what the bloody GT-R is going to be called in Oz, thats IF you get it at all.

In Japan, it's a V35 Skyline GT-R... woohoo!:)

Nope, Goshn has said it's going to be the Nissan GT-R worldwide. One name. No more 200SX/Silvia/240SX confusion, just one name and everyone's gotta live with it.

YES we are getting it. When is the question as we'll get our cars after America/Japan/Europe are satisfied (so expect between 6-12month wait after car is unvieled).

This wait would make sense as it would allow 350Z owners who want a GT-R to cash up enough to buy one...

Even though Carlos "I`ve got yellow fever" Gohsn is the CEO of Nissan, I wouldn`t hang on everything he says. That guy has some serious relationship issues with the Japanese at Nissan, that could very well effect what actually is decided upon... ie: the Japanese overturning some of his "corporate" decisions.

Thats what people (my mates) are saying in Japan.

Thats great Sonic... I`m not contesting that.

I`m saying that "Corporate decisions" that make the GT-R a *GT-R*, that Carlos Gohsn seems tp think are so unmarketable outside Japan eg: it`s name (Skyline heritage), and styling (the engine fiasco has been put to rest thank god)

I mean, Carlos fooked up about the V8 didn`t he? Haa, ha...

So as I say... don`t take everything he says (from now on!) as gospel... he is after all a FOREIGNER in Japan, and any of you guys who have been to Japan to live will know, foreigners don`t run things...

Don't like the look of it anyway, looks like a recycled Renault...................

And we all know how good the frogs are at car design...........long live the citreon, the renault, and the peuguot, with out a doubt the three ugliest looking cars ever made.

I'm sorry, but they are taking skyline where I don't want to go [lets hope the engine package is not influenced by French design].

didn`t like it the much either....but the more 350z`s i see on the road the more i`m starting to like the skyline..i can see were there going with it and yeh i like it ...v35 coupe dumped with wheels ,kit etc is a fat skyline ..stock not to bad either... ...anyone out there driven 1 ??

unless they put a 5ltr, push rod, 2 valve per cylinder donk in the new skyline you'll never seen it run against the likes of v8 supercars, who cares anyway, already beat them at that game a few times, do you really need to embaress them again, they will just make a new formatt up again and rule the nissan out. thing i can't get my had around is they don't even run the V8's they sell there cars with!!!!!!

Personally I'm not sold on the new shape, looks like a maxima!

    • Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.
    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
    • I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.
    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
