What Would You Do To Your R35 With 25 Grand?


Recommended Posts

I'd sell it and buy a ZR1 :P

No wait, I'd buy an exhaust system for several thousand dollars :)

Seriously though, if I had an R35 that I planned on keeping for a long long time I'd probably look at an exhaust system and some sort of ultra professional custom colour for it. Would be nice to see a couple of out-there, different colours on the R35...even if it depreciates the hell out of the thing.

See R35 Development thread. $25000 would be a down payment on all that carbon!!!

I would love to paint my R35 but $10000 on a paintjob that makes my car worth $10000 less

is a bit of a bitter pill.

Or you could just spend the $25000 on a nice R32 GTR to thrash to the shops & keep the

kays down on the R35!

Save the money for genuine service costs...

Thata a bit boring... lol

Nah, I bought the 35 to thrash it, not to baby it around and show it off to friends from my garage

Switzer package

Might be a little full on? Maybe the p600?

Put a down payment on a new transmission for when it shits itself...

sheil be right!

in all seriousness, I would like to get 10.xx down the 1/4.

Whats it take for the gtr to run 10's?

keep in mind its still going to be a street car.. will be used on track more then drag, but still want to own a 10 sec car before i die.

well haltech ran 11.1 in their car with boost and ecu tuning. I would say a 10.9 is possible with some boost, exhaust and some tuning. I would also say the haltech is probably the pick of the ecus around.

but it you want it to be a consistent 10 second car and stay reliable then I'd be doing a fair few more upgrades. look at a small turbo upgrade so you don't have to run the stockers so hard, you may or may not need bigger injectors to go with them, and look at things like transmission cooler to give the thing a chance at a long life.

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
