hey guyz/girls, im just wondering what the R35 GTR will look like? and what engines will be packed into it?

I've heard so many stories about this and that, and im not sure if theyre all rumours or not? (also made a few bets to my friend abt it :D )

I've heard its already sold in japan as a family car with four doors and a non-turbo engine? Because Nissan is losing money and they want to appeal to a wider market so they made it a family car? what the hell.

another, V8? or V6 twin turbo???

Will it have the four circle lights that makes skylines look so appealing!?

Is the shape and engine even confirm? or are they still deciding on it???

check this site out: I DONT BELIEVE IT!!

Im not too sure about the site but so far i have only seen a short clip of the concept V35 GTR on one of the Mishief videos, it held a strong reesmblance to the Z at the front. Along with the rumours I have heard that its a twin turbo V8.

If i can figure out how to get screen shots of it i'll put up a couple.

i've read rumours that it'll be using the same block as the 350Z - which if it is should be very exciting as the VQ35DE cranks "only" 208kW. equip the twin turbos and the VQ35DETT should be seeing a lot more than the Jap limit of 208kW - maybe 300? :D

Also I think the GT-R will have the different shape than the link about... I'm guessing something cross between a R34 and the 350Z...it will be an outrage if the R35 GT-R doesn't have the tail lights!

I don't know why that article refers to the new skyline as an *R*35... when it's quite obvious that the new Skyline is a V6 VQ engine. It's V35 :D

Have a look at this thread...

It should tell you all the latest info up to July and some pics of the engine and other stuff.

in the new speed magazine it says the American's will get a V8 where as the aussie/ japan will get twin turbo V6 from 350Z. the concepts are all here and there! the V35 out in japan doesnt look nething like a skyline however the GTR is said to be just GTR not skyline GTR, and it is meant to have the Stove burners (hopefully) will be a killer when it comes out

>akeenan: TMS will be open to the public from 25th October to the 5th of November at the Makuhari Messe in Chiba.

>nismoman18: Would you be able to post up some scans of the article and pics of the Speed Magazine GT-R story? I've looked high and low, BUT I CANT FIND ANYTHING about a V8 "GT-R"!!!:( Some other members said they'd post some reports, but I guess they forgot.

No kidding, in Japan, there is NOTHING to say about a proposed V8 engine in a Skyline, let alone a GT-R... yet I hear rumours (especially from Oz and the US) that a V8 is a definate. Please could somebody shed some light on the source of the V8 GT-R rumour?

    • Ok glad you clarified on the frenchy’s options , I was worried about if my oem hoses would fit the new compressor or not if I just bought the bracket/compressor kit ,  didn’t realize they also sold a larger full conversion kit. Hmm may just go oem in that case then to make it easy only because I plan to sell this car to upgrade to a 32 GTR or 34 GTT.
    • Right, here's a video of the basic operation at least.  This is what you can expect day to day when you turn the car on and it boots from standby.  The only thing from a media point of view I haven't gotten working is for it to autoplay plexamp when it turns on from standby (it works from cold boot) but that's more of a plexamp problem as it will autoplay other music players.  Also attached is my one stray cable.  It's part of the screen's wiring adapters but there's just nowhere for it to go in my car.  I've just now done a bit of research and found a matching port on a 2010-2014 head unit with BOSE.  Mine has no BOSE so that's that case pretty much closed I think.  Plugging in the Infiniti AC panel basically did nothing for me, so that's a dead end as well.  Next port of call is to mess with this CANBUS module and see what I can find from it.  I found this resource containing the DBC files for a 2010+ G37 : https://github.com/icecube45/Dash_InfinitiG37/blob/master/InfinitiG37.dbc I'll now have something to go from when I try to extract my CANBUS data so I can see if the HVAC Mode, Fan Speed, Temperature, etc. match and also the gear shifter position.  It's a pretty big assumption that it's just mismatched CAN signals but considering all the devices in the CAN network are talking to each other (AC can be fully adjusted just with no info on screen) it might be a safe one.  I will report back WhatsApp Video 2025-02-26 at 12.49.10.mp4
    • Thanks for that Paul.  Do you think if I posted a picture you'd be able to remember where it went? 
    • Sorry Duncan, I didn't get a notification for the replies.  Thanks for responding!  It's a full Android device, but does allow you to use CarPlay/AA as well.  This is the one I bought from NaviRS on AliExpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006368602668.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.111.59aa1802JDzQ0E - the 2K 8G-256G CAM variant but it seems to have gone up by £170 since I bought it!  My purchase was £307.14.   It's not the fastest thing in the world but performs perfectly adequately.  It stays on standby unless I disconnect the battery and let it power down, then it's just a fairly standard Android bootup time from cold.  The DSP Equaliser is very nice and made the standard stereo system sound pretty decent compared to the stock screen.  Perhaps I can take a video of it when I get a sec. It *allegedly* supports the reverse camera, but I'm yet to get that working.  It has options for reverse cam (a camera unit can be bought separately) or 360 cameras (also bought separately).  To be fair it doesn't seem to detect that the shifter was put into reverse but I'm working on a theory about this as well.  At the moment I'm going without which is a bit annoying considering the car is an absolute canal barge but so far I haven't caused any damage I'll grab a picture of the wire I'm missing later today when I can get outside.  My theory, by the by, is that not only is the head unit different, but the CANBUS network has different signals for the different years.  I think this because I have a spare AC panel from a newer Infiniti G37 (as opposed to my Nissan panel) which wouldn't control anything except the volume when I had it wired up with the stock system.  I'm going to throw it back in and see if the screen will respond to it.  I've just ordered an arduino CANBUS module so I can have a look at the signals going around the car and see if I can spot anything.  I'm thinking if I can work out what it's expecting vs what it's getting I might be able to translate and relay the signal back but so far just a theory anyway. I also found this on my travels, so far the only one that specifically matches my car: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002822934280.html?spm=a2g0s.imconversation.0.0.33433e5fgttovi If you look at the picture of the before, it has the card reader slot, and the picture of the head unit is exactly the same as the one pictured in my original post.  I asked if they sell the cables separately but sadly they won't.  I didn't want to just buy this one because it's a super old Android version and only dual core - likely slow as hell. 
    • As above, you did refill the coolant and burp the system before running it again didn't you?
