New Gtr

[geordie]

Well i guess having an opinion isnt allowed anymore?

I didnt say your not allowed to like it and i said clearly in my post it was purely my opinion. Same as contempt said he likes the 350z, thats his personal choice. If he likes it. GREAT!.

Its what i like to call a diverse society, that is why we have people who love there commodore/falcon, riced up lancer. Because in there opinion its a good car.

Why do you think when you go to the pizza shop there is 25 different varietys of pizza and the option to customise one for your self? Because EVERYONE has different taste.

This thread is purely asking for an opinion. Like it love it or hate it.

Get overself, and go flex your ego elsewhere

What about specs????

A friend said he read in a mag, "The last spec sheet I saw from a Japanese magazine said that it had a 3.2 litre V6 with twin electric-spooling turbos making 480 hp, 7 speed getrag gearbox and the new e-4WD system."

Anyone know if that is true???

My money is on a slighty improved VQ35DE, 4WD.

Im dreaming of a twin turbo version VQ35DETT, 4WD

[Bluprint]

I'm thinking VQ35DETT myself too, with an new and improved version of ATESSA ET-S Pro

hehe geez i love stirring the pot

was just jokin dude

of course some ppl dont like it, i like it but i wish they would keep away from european styling that everyone is leaning towards

JC i heard that aswell.... but then again look at wat speed mag was sayin a yr ago with it being a v8 lol

[SKYLVIA]

Im with you geordie, completely unnessacery, everyones entitled to there own opinion, no need to get sh!tty just because someone doesnt agree with you, that sh!t just pisses me off...

i just get bored with this forum so i like to annoy ppl

come to vic section n ull c how bored we get

[Contempt]

Whats with you Mr. Testosterone? No need to get agro.

I think it will take time to get used to. I think people are right when they say they dont want a "supercar" look. With what I bet will only be a VQ35DE motor.

I think now the Skyline has lost the RB motors for these new VQ jobs it will lose its once feared image. It was always the hero car from japan! The 2.something litre coupe with some turbos thrown on for more grunt... The kind of milk bottle motor that gets banned from racing with the V8's because its too fast.

This thing better be sporting a turbo or i'm not jumping on the band wagon.

VQ35DETT mate

The engine already has tuning potential out the arse. Then chuck a couple of snails on it... use your imagination.

[NathR32]

My imagination tells me they'll rate it at 206kw :lol:

[geordie]

Well i remeber reading about the gt500 350z's and they mentioned they were trialing a vq35dett in it which may end up in the gtr. Furthermore the gentlemens agreement of 206kw power cap has now been lifted opening up a whole new world of possiblilitys. Esp with the new WRX etc sporting 2.5lts etc. Its gunna need the balls to outclass

I've already seen what a TT does to the VQ35DE. 280 kw at the rears at 8psi.

APS released a TT kit for the Z about a year ago. I saw a video of a Z doing an 11.2 quarter on 91 octane fuel. This is a rear wheel drive car that struggles for traction off the line... imagine that power with awd for traction?

Here's Dino's blog if you haven't already seen it. Photos from the Tokyo Motor Show.

UK GT-R Forum with some photo-chops of the new PROTO in different colours and a set of Volks.

I reckon it's looking the goods personally. Different from previous but tough. I hope the motor lives up to the GT-R heritage.
