I was driving down woodville road today with a mate in the car. Look in my rear view to see what I thought was an Nissan GTR! We slowed down to get a closer look and noticed P plates. I slowed down some more and it was a 350GT with a GTR style bonnet, front bar, headlights, GTR emblem on the grill.

Seriously looked like a GTR.

It actually didn't look too bad but I feel it is going to be a laughing stock.

Anyone seen it around?

Seen a silver one getting around.

Makes me glad i sold my v35 :)

And there i was thinking the model wouldn't get too common/trashed because it was non turbo and non inline 6 (i.e. not a 'real' skyline as some of you guys might put it)... when i frigging bought it 3+ years ago!

They look like an inbred R35 the front is just wrong.

I had some accident repair done at prestige motor sport and Steve showed me one of the v35's with the conversion

I didnt have the balls to tell him it looks like ass

    • Personal experience. Those f**kers burn. And are actually a PITA to put out. Next time I walk down the back, I'll snap a photo of what the inside of the bonnet looks like when that thing ignites. PS, powder fire extinguishers are useless on that stuff too as it's fibrous and when it ignites, it starts to pull apart. And you end up just blowing powder through a sieve effectively.   Like the big thing is, if it's fire resistant, it's job is to stop what burning? The METAL above it? It's just to try keep heat off the bonnet paint work.
    • Oh man, sorry, $60.00000000... 😛
    • That's more or less what he meant. What it really means is that you do not have to go full crazy on the build. Don't need the best oil pump, expensive rods & pistons, big cams, etc. You can upgrade whatever you want instead of using stock level items, but you don't have to. Having said that - any time an RB is opened up, if anything is getting replaced, I think the opportunity should be taken to do all the sensible upgrades. Pistons, rods, pump, etc.
    • February update 🙂 We managed to get the very last 1/18th "Extra Scale" cars stock available from bookstores in Kyoto. These are actually the last ones and will not be restocked again! Hachette Collections Japan have not decided on a release date for these or other models in the series, so for the time being these are all there are available new.  These are showing up on Yahoo auctions at inflated prices already (especially the Celica and NSX) so get yours now at a very reasonable price before they disappear!

    • When you say basic rebuild, you mean an oem rebuild?
