I was lead to believe that Nissan in Japan nearly went belly up a few years back and is now owned by Renault???? And that they canned new GTR's, and nearly canned the 350Z but had to release/sell them coz they were to far into it???

V8's ? turbo's ? your starting to sound like those little kids i hear that hang around with me..

what would you say to a V8 turbo ? wouldnt that be the best of both worlds..

weight would be the major problem but thats why they have engineers' to solve it.

your suppose to say a N/A vs turbo...a N/A car can be setup just as good as a turbo or supercharged car can be, but the cost would be lots more and it would take twice asmuch time..

im not going to start a flame war with u and get off topic, but people like you are the dickheads who give TURBO / Import Drivers a BAD NAME!

There has never been a war on between trubo v's v8, its ***ing dickheads in v8 or turbo who think one is better than the other and then abused the drivers of those types of cars.

IM sorry but i am sick and tied of people like you saying v8 r shit

end rant/

Tottaly Agree, well said, V8's are Beautiful

I think its about time the Jap's went into V8's, If Top Secret could make 900kW out of a 2.6lt engine... well than i cant wait to see what they do with 4.5Lt+

RB26_S15: Pull your thumb out mate and post up a scan of the article pretty please??? :cheers:

I guarantee I can refute ANYTHING written up in that Speed article. Speed are going for maximum sales by printing BULLSHIT.

The new GT-R = 3.0/3.2 V6 Twin Turbo.

      Was the failed sensor by any chance this one? Did it just fail or start pissing on itself? I ordered one too, for fuel pressure monitoring, and now I am hesitant to put it in, hehe. Where did you find a brand one?

      You'd be insane, when a brand new 8HP is ~$4k, and all the work to put a 6 in would cost the same as an 8 and the 8 is a completely established swap. If you think that getting a cheap Falcon box is going to make it a cost effective exercise, then you're not accounting for the extra $10-15k that the task will consume.

      Baron's R34 GT-R build thread - car in Japan for 5 years -_-

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      They're all horrible. X-Trails have had a nasty sounding 4cyl since forever, no matter what engine family it came from. The CVTs only made that worse. Then the whole Renault thing only made every Nissan that was contaminated by them even worse again. The only fun I've had in a X-Trail was having it blown sideways across a frozen Minnesota highway at 90 mph trying to make it to the airport to get out of the frozen hellhole of Hoth. Nearly died. Was great fun.

      Alrighty, I'll have to grab a couple pics and type out something soon in another post. I haven't driven a modern X no, this would be the first one really. Yeah the rental boxes are always cheap as chips right? So I'd doubt that anyone was handing out GTs to go and abuse. But I s'pose I could be wrong for sure. New cars these days though? Pretty unimpressed with what I see now; 20 years and all that, like you said. It just kind of worked out to have these two cars now. I'm pretty pleased with that, don't need much else. I'm sure you lads are right about the temps and for sure, you wouldn't have much time to drive 'em down there if you all were like me. I do hate sweating all over the seats though😆
