Fellas, do you think they will be a sports version of the V35 Skyline in turbo spec?

No offense intended buddy... just meant, try lowering the price a bit and then you will probably get more offers. And yeah, I wouldn't call my self an audio pro by any means. Good luck mate.

Lower the price a bit mate, I'm actualling look for a sub and amp. Also, you happy to do the installation free? lol

Look at the parts lending thread... post it up there, someone will lend you one if they got one.

Question: anyone like the front of the new GT-R - as I hate it... I love and drool over the sides and back etc... but the front (perhaps the most important part) looks so shonky...

Yeah, that's true, although only m/seconds - the RB engines have a lot of turbo lag... don't know why... it's powerful etc, but laggy. Damn, I am still trying to wake up to the fact the the Skyline, V35 is now a granny car... fark me dead will ya...

They already have - look at the R35.

Fellas, if your car was stolen and you're left in the shadows and asked to follow up shit yourself... how would you feel. Mate - sorry to hear this... I would ring the Victorian policy HQ, speak to some high-brass officer and make this big as this is injustice... Good luck tell us how you go... I know a few good lawyers... PM me and I will hook you up...

Wow, I live like 10 minutes away from Autobarn in Sunshine - heck, I come into there like every week... I drive a modified black R33 Skyline... I know everyone in the shop nearly... you work there? How come I never saw you?? But yeah, book me in... thanks.

Are you guys forgetting something... Racing seats unless engineered and/or approved to be legal will be deemed illegal and you will be defected.

I guess I'll bring it to the mechanic and ask him to fix this problem as it's getting to complicated. Thanks.

Where can I get one? how much?

I asked this and a Japanese importer once said "please note that SRS airbags will activate upon impact, fasten seat-belts at all times for maximum safety..." something like this.

Fark me dead... I'll kill to own something like that... looks like a bit of nice titties on wheels. What more can I say.

It's become a bowl of GT-R soup! lol

I want to see the seating - front and back seats...

lets face it, no stock Skyline ever looked good... give it some aftermarket mods and the new gt-r will smoke.

Fair enough mate... I see your point and agree to it in some parts. I guess, the new GT-R is the best thing that's come from Nissan for a long time... I don't know, I guess intially, it'll take some time for a lot of people like myself to get to know the new GT-R as I feel it's lost it's toughness that the first 3 brought to the table. Tell me, when you saw the R35 in the flesh did it have the toughness of the R33 etc? Damn, I may be old school but the R33 and R35 with a kit looks tough as ... but all in all, just bloody grateful there's a new GT-R... you think this will be the last one... with the new economy changing so much and costs of living ever-increasing... there's not really a market for sports cars anymore ... look how long it too them to release this new R35... I fear this might be the last GT-R...your thoughts?

Yeah, I guess mate... I love Skylines so much I actually have factored it into my life/career plan... I drive a beast of a R33 GTS-T now, but my next car will be a GT-R... I don't like the R34 at all, not a huge fan of the 350Z either... I was actually hoping for the R35 to be something that had the look, the grunt and the elegance as my next car in the next 5 years also... I am hanging to sit it in the flesh and drive it myself as from just pictures, I might not go for the R35 no more as it's lost it's "character" in my opinion. Might go for a R33 GT-R then... but I mean, a R33 is a R33 ... GT-R or not... of course there's power and all that as we all know; I just want something different. Thanks fellas...

What can I say ... OOhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh whhhattttt aaaa feeling GT-R ... lol..... Mind if I ask who much you paid, I guess over $40K? Chuck a kit on it and get it tinted and you're done.

There's absolutely no way around this... new laws are laws... I know it sucks to have to wait it out... but you just have to do that... remember, the law's there to protect you and others from dying on our roads... I see where you're coming from; but as they say "a caterpillar spoils the soup..." one bad bug of a thing and the rest cops it too... have a patience mate... when you're on your P's, the likelihood of you speeding and killing yourself is much higher than when you're off your P's... so just have a some patience.

Bolt it to the pipe, I meant. and yeah, seen people do this.

Hey fellas, thanks for all your comments... I think, like most have said, healthy discussions are good - it also shows how much we love our Skylines and the GT-R heritage. The fact is I have never seen the R35 GT-R in the flesh or driven it... but I have driven the turbo 350Z ... I was so dissapointed... for it's price tag and hype... the 350Z is not what it's cracked up to be... more like a Camry Sportivo-type of car than an actual sports car like the GT-R is. That's the thing, the new GT-R is no longer a true manual, no clutch, looks more for luxury than power sports and it's price tag is aim mored at the mid 30's or 40 year old's out there as opposed to the mid to late 20's or 30's ... I just hope the GT-R lives up to it's hope not like the 350Z ...

To be honest fellas, I am a fan of the new GT-R also, I love the sides, the flaired guards, the back isn't too bad either... the wing (well that can be easily changed) - but the thing that's wrecked it is the front... looks exactly like a 350Z Malady spec... that's where I am dissapointed. I really hope this new GT-R will bring back the goods for Nissan...

Damn.... the end of the Skyline heritage in Sports car spec.
