The release date in Japan for the new GT-R has been confirmed for 24th October 2007.

For a track test video and techincal specs, see: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DWNPyuuefbQ

The price will be 7.7 million Yen cost price at Nissan Dealers in Japan. It will take SEVS workshops some time to obtain approval to comply this model, but as a guide, the FOB price on a new GT-R would be approx. 8.2 million Yen once Japanese registration and deregistration (required by Japanese law prior to exporting new cars), plus taxes etc. are taken into account. This would equate to about $126,000 complied,

I want aswell....

Yeah thats from prestigemotorsport^^, I thought though that there was rumours that Nissan were selling the GTR as a locally delivered model? There are rumours that there are a few people who have ordered the car too - would this be through nissan or are they just giving a deposit to an importer or something?

It looks pretty tuff, but no RB26?...

Its a shame that it wont be a proper GTR.

I absolutely hate this kind of thinking (along with "the V35 isn't a proper Skyline").

The RB26 would in stock form would be too weak to achieve the things Nissan want to do with the new GTR.

And nothing shows progress like putting in an engine with a 20 year old design in a new car... :D

SEVS? I thought they were going to sell them here new.

Not confirmed yet.

Who said that the rb26 would be in the same form it was 18 years ago, its like anything with age you make improvements.

ive got nothing against this new beast. but i think it should go by a different name. the GTR finished production in 2002 for a good reason.

its like a tv series, if you make to many shows people loose interest, sure the first few years may be great, but then the writers struggle to come up with new ideas and it becomes boring.

at the end of the day all im saying is a great new car should have a great new name, and maybe in the years to come this could be looked at as another one of nissan's greats.

    • Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers    
    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
