I reckon the Japs have a done a great job with this car. Sure it aint no CGT, but it's a great alternative. Get a few mods done and you will be laughing.
Z tune or Nur version anyone?

rice means Race Inspired Cosmetic Enhancement. I laugh at the amount of times my car has been called rice yet it is exactly how it came off the production line back in 1993 |

Just occured to me maybe thats where FPV got the idea for the racoon eyes for Orion, off the GTR concept?
 Also in this case I think the front would have looked better if they left the concepts black outs in the final production version (not liking the front of the GTR but I reckon the back looks great). Last edited by 5.4 GT; 20-10-2007 at 12:50 PM. |

*bump*
This month marks 10 years since the R35 commenced production. Hard to believe Nissan has not yet released a R36. However the latest R35 is much changed from the original model.

Brutally fast and capable, takes the GTR namesake to the next level, not to mention Nissan itself.
Though even after 10 years, it's got a face like a dropped pie.

That is a good run, still a amazing car for what you get.
Part of me is still sad it become a "supercar" more than a 'sportscar" which means the RRP jumped a fair bit.

Saw a white R32 GTR on the road the other day. They were current for 5 years so it would be 23-28 years old now.
Still looks the Goods
