Yeh i like porches but none of them really stand out to me, but the GT is insane,

The bestmotoring or topgear or whatever drive of it is pretty cool, he has the same reaction as when he was driving the 1000hp JUN Lemon 33GTR.. he basically just says "WOW, u need to be awake to drive this!"

Yeh almost the entire car is made out of silicon carbonate or something  

its insane,  

Altho, ide have to say no to the $1Million pricetag  

Not worth $1Million in my opinion

Imagine an R34 GTR VspecII NUR with $800,000 spend on it  

hehehe

Seen the machine, wasn't really impress at all.  

pretty much of it is about more power and more refinement, no quatumn jump in car or engine technology, or construction techniques. Also i'm not a porsche or ferrari person.

Are you serious??? Inboard suspension and a carbon fibre monocoque might be old news in F1 but this is a semi-production road car.

p.s. The pictures look like they are from Hong Kong

And after all that money, it's still a Nissan.

I'd take the Carrera GT over a R34 GTR with $800,000 worth of mods anyday.

I was lucky enough to get an invite to a recent Porsche showroom gala opening which featured a real Carrera GT on the showroom floor. A beaitifull thing, but kinda "surreal" because of it's stratosperic asking price, too expensive to aspire to I think?

    • That ring thing is interesting how it's holding everything together 
    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
