Focus Auto Sales graciously loaned their $120k 1999 R34 Nissan Skyline GTR Vspec in factory Lightning Yellow (one of the rarest R34 GTR colors available) for this test drive. In order for Kerry Ann De La Cruz to properly test drive the 580hp Skyline she had to ditch the heels but unfortunately not the bikini!
Last week (Oct 7, 2009) in Vancouver, BC at a VanCity Bank, a Nissan GT-R crashed up the stairs and into the outside ATM machines almost killing 2 pedestrians!
Top Secret, is one of the best and most famous modified tuning shops out of Japan. They are apparently just finishing up some final testing of their newly engineered titanium exhaust system for their Modified Nissan GTR R35.
Leave it to a JDM tuner to produce one of the greatest body kits for the new Nissan R35 GTR. Branew has 2 different aero style kits to enhance the already awesome GTR!
I was invited to the Nelson Ledges Raceway in Ohio to test-drive SPI’s latest projects: the Porsche 997 GT2 and Nissan GT-R. Initial laps were treated as a warm-up both for the machines and me, but my pace quickened as I began to rein in all 800 hp from these retuned sports cars.
Zele’s list of carbon parts include a new front bumper, lip spoiler, side skirts, underbody spoiler, air duct, a new grille, front fender ducts and a surge tank cover. Owners can choose between wet and dry carbon products and most pieces cost under a couple g’s.
Since our start of the project in November 2008, our main goal was to get 650 crank horsepower. Well we smashed that with 720HP. The GT-R features Agency Power performance parts, Meisterschaft Titanium Exhaust, Cobb Tuning AccessPort, and the lovely 93 octane. We did 3 runs to make sure our boost was strong and our numbers were consistant. Before the car ships, we do plan on getting some 60-130 times as well.
HRE recently created a special rim exclusively for the Nissan GT-R R35 using their P40 Monoblock wheel design and will be made in their San Diego facility. This P40 monoblock design is a 1 piece forged wheel and is extremely lightweight. The wheels will accept OEM tire pressure monitoring devices and sizes can be cut to fit the OEM tires.
I first stumbled across Terrence's BlueR35 blog back in May, and immediately fell for his Bay Blue Nissan. Now, the car is done, and more professional-looking pictures are turning up on the site every day!
Switzer's P800 GTR Nissan and a pair of highly tuned Audi turbos make a series of 1/4 mile runs, and the GTR delivers with back-to-back 10.4 sec. runs at over 133 mph!
Switzer would like to officially welcome Dodson Motorsport - widely regarded as the foremost experts in R35 GT-R transmission and driveline tuning, and well-known in the tuning community at large.
To the best of my knowledge, this is the first tuned 2010 model year GTR Nissan - compared to 2009 models, all the maps, software, etc. are different ... big news for GTR fans!
In case you missed watching the Koenigsegg CCX vs Ferrari 430 Scuderia VIDEO here is another great video of a Nissan GT-R vs Koenigsegg CCR Evolution. Strap on some headphones and enjoy.
You got to check out these shots of this 2010 Nissan GT-R we built here at Vivid Racing. The car is equipped with the complete Vorsteiner Ventross aero kit including the carbon fiber front bumper and rear carbon fiber diffuser. The front bumper features aggressive cooler ducts in carbon and a carbon fiber lower lip.
Their very own R35 GT-R phantom is a “show and track” car (see videos below), equipped with the best products in all categories. With Powerhouse Amuse tweaks the GT-R’s VR38DETT engine now pumps out 611hp at 6200 rpm.
Having seen the original Branew Nissan GT-R at the 2008 Sema Show in Las Vegas this past November, it surely didn’t take Branew long to whip up another sexy front clip available in FRP or Carbon Fiber called The Front Bumper Dynamic Version. I will make sure I take a tonne of photos of this new clip because I think it makes a very nice modification to the already sexy Nissan GT-R front end!
