Rezz Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 Name: V35 (Skyline) GT-R Company: Nissan Entertainment Europe Release Date: 2007 or Carlos Ghosn dying/being sacked, whichever comes first. Rumoured Specification: 450+hp VQ32DETT, ATTESA-Pro, motor-assisted spool up turbos, 6-speed paddle semi-automatic gearbox. V8 option ruled out since Nissan USA was found out to thought the GT-R was some kind of SUV vehicle... Notes: By 2007, the new V36 Skyline will be ready for realease, just in time to co-incide with the release of the "Old" new GT-R... I think Carlos hasn't been honest with us...

OKBANANA Posted December 11, 2003 Author Share Posted December 11, 2003 Since the introduction of the R34 Skyline GT-R in 1998, the question of whether the GT-R would survive the near future or not, was highly discussed in the automotive world - especially among Skyline enthusiasts. With the revelation of the GT-R Concept at the Tokyo Motor Show 2001, Nissan has finally ended these discussions. The radical GT-R Concept gives an impression of what the replacement of the Skyline GT-R (due 2004) might look like. If the car will still be called Skyline GT-R is not sure, yet, but chances are high the Skyline part of the name will be dropped and the car will simply be badged Nissan GT-R. Thanks to computer games like Gran Turismo, the Skyline GT-R has become famous the world over during the past few years, so there is no more reason to reduce GT-R sales to domestic shores, only. Hence, Nissan finally plans to sell the car globally (maybe badged Infiniti in the US), in left-hand- and right-hand-drive form. Radically different to the R34 GT-R, the GT-R Concept’s front facia appears impressive due to its width, but otherwise quite featureless. Narrow headlights flank each side of the body and blend into black cooling vents to the bottom, thus enhancing the impression of a wide and low body. Apart from the black grille and bumper assembly with its vast air intake openings, there is no distraction of the even body surface. Following the sweep of the wheel arch, the lights extend to the back, onto the long hood. Basically, what the face lacks is a definition of characteristic features instead of the current simple facia. The lights’ design is a nice feature, but I reckon the front could still use some more dedication to give it a more distinctive and balanced appearance. Standing on huge wheels, the GT-R Concept’s side view is really pleasing, but still aggressive, with distinctive front-wheel arches that start off copying the hood’s lines and then abruptly descent into small side-vents, and rear-wheel arches reminiscent of those seen on the Aston Martin Vanquish. Similar to Nissan’s new Z-Car, the waist-line is rather high, leaving space for relatively narrow side windows only. The roof extends all the way back to the rear, which is dominated by the characteristic round tail-lights and wide exhaust pipes on either side below them - a little like a 1968 Corvette Stingray. Nissan says, the stage of design is similar to that of the Z-Car when it was first introduced as a concept, so detail changes to the exterior are very likely. Hopefully Nissan won’t change too much. The engine choice is still much of a speculation. Rumors vary between turbo-charged V6 and V8 or normally aspirated V8 (at least for international markets), which are expected to produce between 335hp and 450hp. Unfort-unately, the days of the fabulous RB26DETT appear to be counted, but at least the new car will continue to use ATTESA, the GT-R’s computer-controlled all-wheel-drive system. New for the coming GT-R will be variable damping control for the suspension and a paddle-shift six-speed gearbox. The Concept is dominated by light-weight materials like aluminium and carbonfiber which will hopefully make it onto the production model. Thanks to its lower kerb weight and (hopefully) more power, the new GT-R should be even quicker than the current version. Looking at the new V35 Sedans, one quickly notices they have lost all similarity with Skylines of the past, whereas the GT-R Concept keeps the round taillights, which had been the most easily identifiable trait of previous Skylines, and other mechanical features we had known from the Skyline GT-R so far. Keeping this in mind, simply badging the car Nissan GT-R seems quite paradox - Nissan think over it again! The GT-R has always been a Skyline…and should always be!

Rezz Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 Just info bout GT-R... :headspin: Where did you pull that article from Milk*? It sounds very outdated. Oh, and the GT-R Concept vehicle from the '01 Tokyo Motor Show was just a enginless and drivetrainless mock-up. Like a pre-pre-prototype body/interior, with wheels on it.
