Hi guys,

As you all know, previous GTR black edition was written off due to a moron...but that's what insurance is for.

Due to limited availability, we had to order a new R35 from Japan. The wait is finally over and it was picked up last week. FTG Nissan were an absolute pleasure to deal with and I can highly recommend them.

Currently in the run in period. :) Please find below pics. Black Edition looks better in white IMO (but I'm biased now lol).

Thanks.

I visited FTG Nissan a few weeks back, i must agree they have the best customer service of all the dealers. I am hoping to eventually do a deal on a black edition with them also.

Congrats, looks amazing, its well deserved after your recent painful experience.

Thanks guys. Very happy with the car so far.

It will skid eventually, with a few 'tweaks'. I will drive it as intended (hard and good). Unfortunately the car has a run in period of about 2000kms

Love the Black coloured spoiler! (Is it a Matte / Satin finish?)

Looks so good on a White car.

It is dry carbon. Looks killer in person....and is an 18k part to order. :glare:

I just ran some injector cleaner through her. started roughly the first time after adding it but gave it the beans slowly upto 4k, Must have cleaned a few cobwebs out. another step in the right direction for the sub
    • Sadly I can confirm if you are actually seeking to drift, you will quite easily spin up one wheel. Even if you're going in a straight line. I am not entirely sure of the metrics/terminology here but there's only a certain amount that the helical will actually spin both wheels. I've seen it on video with my own car where two lines of smoke switch over to just one after you really get in to it. Unlike with a clutch diff where you can keep your foot planted until the car regains grip, in my experience with the helical you want to be utilizing traction control allowing LIMITED slip or lifting (partially) when you start to spin up both tyres with a Nissan helical. Which makes them pretty sub optimal for drifting duty. That said... this is probably a helical on numbers alone. Just put the Kazz in
    • Let's just fix the problem by f**king the rest of the gearbox.
    • Unlikely, as per Greg's post. This is not helical diff behaviour unless one wheel is up off the ground. Shimming what? You don't "shim" a mechanical LSD. Probably not in the sense that you have heard of people "shimming" a diff. And the process that Nissan f**kwits call "shimming" a diff involves super-preloading a VLSD cartridge against the side of the diff to create a friction/wear point (in a place that it wasn't supposed to have one) to make the sloppy, useless, viscous diff into a hybrid viscous/mech abortion. In case it isn't clear, I consider the process to be stupid. Nike.
    • How much does the shifter move when the car is in gear with the engine off? If it is more than about 1cm you need to replace your shifter bush. Your shifts will just get crunchier, not faster, with a short shifter unless you also rebuild the whole box
