4.3 litre it seems and a lazy 887awkw - the Japanese are getting serious!

I love the hinging front... love it all, amazing looking car.

If you're too lazy to watch the vid, car gets to mid 330km/hr front straight of Fuji! :woot: But you should watch it, great vid anyway.

From the DSPORT site

Since its release in 2008, the Nissan R35 GT-R has been the tuner's darling all around the globe. The R35s technological advances have delivered incredible performance from Japan to the Nürburgring to the USA. America’s tuning market led the world for R35 GT-R parts and power development. On the contrary, Japan’s tuners have followed a slower and more methodical approach, at least, until now. GReddy Performance Products and TRUST ramped up its VR38DETT engine development program to showcase its engineering prowess with its 35RX build and subsequent 35RX performance parts line.

GREDDY-BUILT VR

A 2008 GT-R served as the test bed for development. Prior testing uncovered the weak link above 600 horsepower, the stock connecting rods. GReddy engineers stripped the block down and installed a set of prototype GReddy ductile-iron sleeves bored to 99.5mm. Once prepared, the block was filled with a six-pack of 8.6:1 compression JE Pistons that join the GReddy stroker crankshaft by way of Carrillo connecting rods. The VR’s new displacement was 4,309cc, an increase of 510cc or 13-percent over stock.

Up top, the cylinder heads received GReddy’s CNC cylinder head program, which included reshaping of the combustion chambers for the larger cylinders as well as a port and polish service. The factory valves backed by prototype GReddy valve springs and retainers filled the heads, while GReddy 272-degree camshafts were installed to provide more lift and duration. ARP CA625+ head studs supply the clamping force to secure the heads to the block as GReddy MLS head gaskets ensure a complete seal.

BOOST-BACKED BLOCK

GReddy stainless-steel cast exhaust manifolds position a pair of odified TD06SH-25G SPL turbochargers in place of the stock IHI turbos. GReddy Type-R external wastegates regulate boost pressure as spent gasses flow through a customized GReddy PE-R turbo-back exhaust system. The compressor outlets feed a GReddy Type-29 front mount intercooler. Aluminum piping directs the chilled and compressed intake charge from the intercooler to the billet-aluminum GReddy big-bore throttle bodies and aluminum intake plenum. GReddy’s triple-pump hanger equipped with 255-lph pumps delivers an 80/20 blend of 100 octane and 108.5 octane unleaded fuel from the tank to a six-pack of 1,600 cc/min fuel injectors at the intake ports. To make best use of the increased fuel delivery, the factory ECU was reflashed with software written by NEKO Corporation. With boost pressure regulated to 29 psi by a PRofec B-Spec II, the GT-R spun the rollers of a Bosch dynamometer to the tune of 1,189 whp and 1,086 lb-ft torque.

There's a few monsters that will be at HKS Premium day next month, full lineup for the GTR35 GT-R Speed max has not been fully confirmed but there are some brutes on the list

I'll be there with bells on.

It was actually an open track day at Fuji and not a private test day. I asked Tarzan, "Uh wait....so you're going to try to go over 330k's on the front straight in traffic?" His reply was simply, "Yes. Try." Keep in mind that the Greddy 35RX is a company demo car and not a dedicated track car. The only real safety equipment it has is a Racetech bucket seat and TRS 4 point harnesses. It has no roll cage.

there's a shot of him splitting traffic on the front straight, i'm assuming at well over 300km/hr... :worship:

The crazy thing is, it still has a full interior and no roll cage. Imagine once they really start stripping it and getting some rigidity going (cage etc), surely will pull some ridiculous track times.

One day i'll put in an order for a 35RX :D

    • You’ll want to have the block drilled and tapped to suit 1/2in head studs and the head for the same. How much power do you intend to make?
    • Sorry for resurrecting an oldish thread Not much has happened in the past year since the last update. The car did another 1000 miles or so and failed the MOT for the first time in October (failed on tyres which had been advised for a couple of years) In October the car got put up for sale and was removed in November due to no interest, being so close to christmas it was to be expected. The roads were dry in February so I decided to tax it early and get the new tyres fitted.   Fast forward to April, I got someone in to give the car a good clean after sitting for the winter.                                 The car got re-advertised and today (Saturday 3rd May) the car sold. The new owner is planning a GTR conversion at some point and a respray in the same pearl white. It's bitter sweet, it's a shame to have the car sit there for half the year and then only do 1000 miles. The kids are growing too quick and space in the back is getting limited. It's been a great 6.5 years of ownership
    • And if you want more power, more reliably, and cheaper, go get the Aussie RB... The 4L Barra and put that in instead.
    • No cats will keep discolouring the rear bar. Sends white paint a weird yellow stain. Cut and polish normally gets it out, but you'll be doing that every fortnight I found.
    • Both heads will be equally reliable or unreliable depending on what you do to them.  Stock the RB26 head will flow more. You have access to the stock intake ITB manifold on the RB26 cheaply which flows really well(1000hp+).   Arguably more aftermarket support for RB26, though in Aus we love our RB30 SOHC heads too.    The only downsides to the RB26 head is if you have a VL commodore and want to keep the SOHC look.  Where you may have an issue is drilling out the rb30 block for the bigger head studs but if you are building a big power motor you'd probably put bigger studs on the SOHC head too.  This is just about finding a good machine shop, sometimes easier said than done.  RB30 head worked can make big power just like a Rb26 head, so really it actually more comes down to what your preference is for your car.  People now even making billet versions of both.
