"Fans of the monster car will love this. Four stars" Auto Express

The first Japanese Supercar, Skyline GTR R32, had earth-shattering performance and some unique characteristics. It was only offered for sale in Japan and Britain, yet had a worldwide reputation because of the Gran Turismo computer game. This DVD looks at the original R32, drives it back-to-back with the latest R35, and examines the GT-R that's winning races in the FIA GT1 World Championship. Plus, Gran Turismo creator and gaming legend Kazanori Yamauchi explains why the GT-R won such a special place in the affection of gamers, drifters and street-racers and how his GT Academy is bringing virtual racers into the real world of racetrack competition.

Explore a legend and discover the latest chapter in the history-making story of a ground-breaking car.

More than four decades ago, the Skyline legend was born; 20 years later the seventh generation emerged and changed everything. This was the Nissan Skyline GT-R R32, a massively powerful and technologically advanced machine which amazed with its speed, handling and cutting-edge electronics. Initially a cause for excitement only among specialists, the arrival of the Sony PlayStation game Gran Turismo – a simulator offering an incredibly realistic driving experience – brought the GT-R to the mainstream and helped establish the legend. Now, another two decades later, there is a new chapter in this legend – the arrival of the mouth-watering R35. Gone is the Skyline name – the new breed is purely and simply a GT-R.

This absorbing programme traces the story of the GT-R right through to the R35, combining breathtaking track and road action with lingering close-ups, interviews and fact-filled commentary.

We ride in-car at the famous race circuits of Spa and the Nurburgring, travel to Tokyo to see possibly the world’s fastest GT-R, a 1200bhp, 200mph street-legal monster, being pushed to the limit and watch the R35 on the speed limit-free roads of the Isle of Man. The DVD also includes a stunning comparison between the Gran Turismo experience of driving a GT-R on the streets of London and the real-life thrill of an R35 on the roads of the English capital.

The programme includes interviews with Gran Turismo creator Kazunori Yamauchi and Andy Middlehurst, four-times a saloon car champion with Nissan and now a specialist dealer, as they reveal what makes the GT-R such an exceptional driving experience.

We also study the transition of the R35 to the racetrack, following Sumo Power GT Team as it takes on the new-look FIA GT1 World Championship. Team boss Nigel Stepney and drivers Peter Dumbreck and Michael Krumm explain the challenges of transforming the GT-R to the championship’s regulations, as well as the sheer delight of being able to take to the track in the ultimate coupling of power and technology. Plus, you share the experience in a on-board lap of Silverstone filmed from inside the Sumo Power GT machine.

"It's nearly 40 years since Nissan unleashed its original Skyline GT-R, and this DVD charts the supercar's history way back to 1972's PGC10 model. But its main focus is on the late 1980s R32 and modern GT-R R35. There's road and track footage, interviews with drivers and experts, plus informed commentary. It does linger on the custom modifications and video game tie-in, yet fans of the monster car will love this. four stars" Auto Express

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By patrickxdf12 · Posted

      Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4

      S15 Spec R

      By RP1421 · Posted

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
