I'd sell it and buy a ZR1 :P

No wait, I'd buy an exhaust system for several thousand dollars :)

Seriously though, if I had an R35 that I planned on keeping for a long long time I'd probably look at an exhaust system and some sort of ultra professional custom colour for it. Would be nice to see a couple of out-there, different colours on the R35...even if it depreciates the hell out of the thing.

See R35 Development thread. $25000 would be a down payment on all that carbon!!!

I would love to paint my R35 but $10000 on a paintjob that makes my car worth $10000 less

is a bit of a bitter pill.

Or you could just spend the $25000 on a nice R32 GTR to thrash to the shops & keep the

kays down on the R35!

Nah, I bought the 35 to thrash it, not to baby it around and show it off to friends from my garage

Switzer package

Might be a little full on? Maybe the p600?

Put a down payment on a new transmission for when it shits itself...

sheil be right!

in all seriousness, I would like to get 10.xx down the 1/4.

Whats it take for the gtr to run 10's?

keep in mind its still going to be a street car.. will be used on track more then drag, but still want to own a 10 sec car before i die.

well haltech ran 11.1 in their car with boost and ecu tuning. I would say a 10.9 is possible with some boost, exhaust and some tuning. I would also say the haltech is probably the pick of the ecus around.

but it you want it to be a consistent 10 second car and stay reliable then I'd be doing a fair few more upgrades. look at a small turbo upgrade so you don't have to run the stockers so hard, you may or may not need bigger injectors to go with them, and look at things like transmission cooler to give the thing a chance at a long life.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
