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.

Congratulations on your purchase!

They are indeed an amazing piece of gear, and very addictive - I have 3 currently and still want more!

      R34 GTR Speedo Drive , sensor type ?

      By Butters · Posted

      Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
