Hey All,

Just bought a beautiful white 09 R35 GTR, all I can say is its amazing.

I have driven a lot of exotic cars, along with highly modified R26 GTR's and all I can say is the R35 GTR as an out of the box package is in its own league.

There is no Review or Video that can some up how this car feels to drive, it does everything so well and I haven't even had the chance to take it to the track yet :)

If your considering an M3 or equivalent don't make the mistake go for the R35 GT-R as quite frankly there's no car this side of $350,000 that I would rather drive.

Look forward to meeting many of you in the community and getting to a few events!

Cheers

lol. you are right but it's funny reading it now. I've known that feeling since 2008 when I got mine!! seems like a lifetime ago now but I do still remember the first time I rode in one, the first time I raced one (was in japan in 2007, release day, in a mates 800hp R34 GTR and we were level pegged by a near stock R35!), the first time I saw one on a race track in person (was Tsukuba 2007, same day as we raced one on the freeway), and of course the first time I drove one. by then I already knew they only had about 290kw at the wheels and the very first thought I had blasting up a winding hill was that to keep up with this car in a R32/33/34 GTR I'd need at least 400kw in a stripped out lightweight GTR and a dogobox at least or even a hollinger. and even then the R35 would pull a length or two at least on every corner exit. and you know what? buy a 32/33/34 GTR, build it to a reliable 400kw add a hollinger, some decent brakes and suspension to make it handle and you've spent almost as much as just buying an R35 GTR...

they are a very impressive car. not because of how much power they have but because of how little power they have and how fast they are still.

Thank You all, and I'll see you, Kym and Fireboy at the next gold coast Gtr meet :)

G'day Ray

Glad to see you got the VERY NICE white one!

Looking forward to catching up with you at the QR day on the 26th and our monthly GC cruise night (first Saturday night of each month)

You, me and Fireboy will now make 3 x R35's attending each monthly GC night.

      Forced Performance Hta Turbos

      By LaurelPWR · Posted

      For anyone interested, this is my old graph from 2021, but I've plotted the previous setup curve onto it with a black pen. old setup was: pon cams, oem itbs and plenum, HPI manifold, hks 2835 pro S .87ar rear, Turbosmart actuator, 3" turbo back no res. or cat., greddy spec M fmic, nismo 740cc inj, walbro in tank 460, splitfires, 4" intake pipe, Apexi pod, e85, eboost2, power Fc. I love that the new setup has much larger turbo spec with the HTA3076 1.01ar Ts rear, and literally everything is bigger, but far higher quality and result is it's FAR more responsive in paper.

      This makes a lot of sense! I just had that realisation a few minutes ago and wrote it above haha. This is a good new discovery. "Sanding the side of the hill" perfect way to put it.   😂 😂

      This is probably what's happened to me. I'll put filler again on my repairs and use the long block and let you know how I go. Fingers crossed it's my last batch of filler lol. I can see that happening where my block dipped at certain points because it didn't cover all the high spots at the same time if that makes sense. I'm just trying to visualise the fact that with the large sanding block I will be sanding far away from the central dent area and whether that will cause issues or whether that's going to fether out my repairs better.

      Thanks for all that info. I thought I heard that the size of the block should be the same size as the repair or is that wrong? Though I do have some long blocks which I can use for the dents in the middle of the panel. The issue is with the ones at the edge of the door and near the grooves.
