The cat’s outta the bag folks. Preliminary specs of the low-fat, ginseng-infused GT-R Spec-V have been revealed and boy, do they make for interesting reading.
Much of what was previously speculated has been confirmed, with the Spec-V receiving a small bump in power, a substantial reduction in weight, carbon-ceramic brakes and upgraded versions of the standard [...]
We all know the stereotype: a bearded, overweight Star Wars fan living in his mother’s basement, surrounded by rack after rack of official SW memorabilia and spending many a hot, sweaty night tapping out bizarre Chewie-on-C3PO fan fiction. Sad yes, funny maybe, but as much as we all like to laugh at [...]
After a lacklustre road rally debut at this year’s Targa Tasmania, the R35 GT-R has finally scored its first ever outright win in a tarmac rally - and on standard-issue street tyres, no less. 24-year-old Steven Jones was the man behind the tiller of the Fabcar R35 throughout the Quit Targa West, which [...]
If you were planning on picking up a brand-new R35 GT-R but were simply waiting for the requisite amount of pennies and farthings to accumulate in your wallet, you’d better get prepared to wait just a little bit longer. That’s right, citing "increased raw materials costs," Nissan has decided to raise the [...]
While aftermarket parts companies have yet to offer a replacement turbocharger/manifold kit for the R35, Japanese tuning house HKS have developed their own turbine upgrade that manages to eke out a few more ponies from the GT-R’s standard-issue turbo. Dubbed the GT570, HKS’s kit consists of stronger wastegate actuators, an HKS EVC [...]
Here’s some eye candy for you all to perv on. These pics are renderings of Wald’s upcoming Sports Line bodykit for the R35, and boy do Wald love vents. Despite the front bumper being mega-fussy, Wald has definitely come up with an eye-catching design for the GT-R. The side view [...]
All you GT-R freaks and Nismo-philes listen up: Nissan Motorsports International has finally announced its parts lineup for the R35 GT-R, and there’s some tasty-lookin’ pieces of kit on offer. That’s the good news. The bad news is that the upgrades are only available for purchase by Japanese GT-R owners and that [...]
The issue of the R35 GT-R’s true power has been a contentious one ever since the first press car strapped onto a dyno recorded a much higher than expected result. Many have claimed that cars given to journalists were deliberately altered by Nissan to produce a higher power number than that stated on the [...]
While the R35 GT-R is perhaps the world’s cheapest supercar, that still doesn’t mean itwithin reach for average Joe’s like you and I. Well, come November us regular folk should be able get our hands on a model that not only provides an accurate 1:32 scale representation of the GT-R for much less than [...]
Japanese aftermarket parts powerhouse Blitz has apparently transplanted the RWD drivetrain from a Z33 Fairlady Z into a near-new R35 GT-R, which suggests only one thing: there are plans afoot to enter a back-wheel burnin’ GT-R into the sideways circus that is the D1 Grand Prix.
While I personally frown upon such mechanical mutilation of a [...]
