Sorry all - I have watched this thread appear and grow and I have ground my teeth each time it pops up at the top of the board.

Nissan have not produced an R-35 anything.

The R relates to the series of the engine, the R series engines were a straight six - now discontinued. They did however do a V-35 Skyline which was powered by a V6 engine.

Nissan have not based this GTR on any evolution of the Skyline, so it is not a even a Skyline, or an R anything as it dosent have an R series engine.

Nissan themselves have designated this car the NISSAN - GTR.

Thats it - no R - no 35, Just NISSAN GTR.

If this has already been mentioned please excuse me for not reading it - as you will understand I have not read any of this thread.

Rant over :blush:

um...........R32's came out in CA18's in certain variants

how is that following the same line of engines?

seriously go with it mate who cares

a GTR has to start with an R. just because its a GTR. it would be wrong if it was something else in my eyes

      Son, in this country, that is a piece of Gyprock. f**king drywall. FFS! I also like the autocorrect of trailer to tablet. I was reading it and thing, "what the hell drugs is he on?" Then the photo made it clear enough.

      So whats the deal with the porous block VR30DDTT

      SO whats the deal with this issue? I've read a heap of posts from the infinity owners in the US having full engine swaps done under warranty. Most claims are done on earlier cars than 2019 but I'm sure I've come across claims of 2020 models also having this issue. I like the 400r and Q50Red/S but can't fathom dumping close to 50k on a car with terminal issues!!!

      The above video is working normally. That is, that's how the right hand indicator should cancel when rotating the wheel left.

      I noticed that I could see creatures on the moon when I turned my new headlights on. I thought I should check the alignment. It's pretty rudimentary but I just grabbed some dry wall and put it against my tablet and made sure the beam was below the height on the headlights. Ie the beam is at 600mm on my car, I just made it lower than that 7.5m away.  Not the best but it'll do until I can do it properly at the local shops.

      Ceramic turbine damage to engine - what did yours do?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      As @Duncan said - the bores are most likely to cop it. But anything can and does happen. Rods are cheap. Rods are good. The work to rebuild the motor will be 30x the price of rods. You won't notice it.
