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. |

I reckon the concept looks far superior to the final model.

*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
