hehe... time for the good old smackdown... never get tired of using this gif :D

v35_not_r35.gif

:D R36 :D R35 :rofl: based on R34 design... gold!

its almost as good as hearing every single ex-honda owning US drift/togeh bandwagon jumpin ricer buying a 240sx and recommending all his forum buddies to put RB engines into their cars coz its "JDM TYTE Y0".

ok so i retract my previous statement i thought the information i had was correct so if your right

what is the picture that i posted of?

and where do i buy r33 gt-r parts in the us does anyone know?

oh and by the way i am a "yank" and do you guys really call us that?

why who r u? do u work for nissan or something id hope so big call to say "tell this guy who i am" haha u sound like a god

^^^ lol... well now you know who I am :rolleyes:

Hi, I think those skyline coupes look good, I mean every car has its supporters. I dont like R33's, the only exception being the GTR with its pumped guards. The v35's do look a bit like the 350Z but that isnt such a bad thing.

I cant really see R35/36 GTR breaking GTR tradition, from a looks point of view most of the base model Skylines look ok (except for a couple) and the GTR has always been the one with a more agressive and purposeful look.

p.s. For a Z / Skyline looks comparison; check the nissan site out.

go down to the bottom and select 'Fairlady Z' and then Skyline and see how similar they are, they nearly line up perfectly!!!

so i have a few questions you say the next skyline is going to be a v35 or something along those lines not an r35 but the newest issue of sport compact car says that nissan is building to the release of the new r35 gt-r with the release of the 05 nismo Z-tune r34 (which oddly enough is the most ridiculous car ever).

so what is really going on are they going to stick with the cars they have released for you guys over here or are they actually going to produce a new gt-r (infinit or non)?

Sport Compact Car? Hmmmmm... those guys *literally* have as much chance as I do of getting info about the next GT-R (and I know they make big bucks). They just named it R35 GT-R in their article because they're just following what 10,000,000,000 newbies on the 'net have been calling it since 2001.

Put it this way: SCC are in it to make money... they make money by selling magazines... they sell magazines by printing articles that people want to read... they print articles with next to no *real* content for that reason only, selling mags. So I'm not suprised they called it R35, as they could've called it ZZR TUNE 000-7 Type T super Turbo Ricemobile and still sold mags...

    • Well some mostly good news and some slight bad news.  Good news is cylinder 6 did in fact only require a honing and I'm good to run my 86.5mm pistons again. I should also get the block back by end of week. Bad news, had a few surprises pop up. First, main and rod bearings were trashed. No sign of any heat damage. I knew right away what caused this... I had not packed my oil pump originally and spent a lot more time than I would have liked cranking the motor to get oil pressure. It sounded fine once started so I chucked it up to luck and forgot about it. Luckily rod and crank are fine and just need new bearings. Engine builder agreed that this was the cause.    Another surprise that carbon covered up very well that I didn't catch, something got sucked up and went through cylinder 1, 2 and 3. Luckily this was no cause for concern, just needed a bit of cleaning up. Valves look fine but he will vacuum test the head this week to confirm. I'm presuming this was something left over from welding my intercooler piping, but we'll never know. I'm going to thoroughly reclean everything.    So all in all, happy the motor is fine, and I'll get it back much sooner than expected. I'll also be taking the time to convert my WMI system over to direct port. I'll snap some pictures of that when the parts come in. 
    • I understand, thanks. Yeah I wouldn't want the car to tip over, I'll try and use the sills, I don't want to risk smashing the chassis rails. I ordered some rubber pucks that have a hopefully big enough slotting. If the front right gives me trouble I can always just make a wood block. I'll measure and inspect the sills closer once I actually take the car up. I hope so, but the rubber blocks I had in hand so far were pretty damn firm, if they are that hard they won't give much way. I'll let you know what happens. Angle grinding rubber isn't one of my favorite tasks. I'll probably start a build thread soon, for my own documentation and "log" as well as sharing what's going on with the car.
    • Kinda something I have been thinking about.  To be honest, we bought it already driving like that.  So there's no telling how long it actually has been driving like this.  Hopefully damage is too bad when we drop the pan.   I am having a hard time finding a site that sells the solenoid for the 5 speed auto, do you have any suggestions?
    • That'll be most likely down the road...  LOL  
    • a stock / option or aftermarket?
