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.

      Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.

      Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.

      Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
