GT-R Proto Unveiled

[vectorspecialist]

i liked the older boxy look, it gives it more "attitude", especially the air intakes on the front facia, me i like air ducts, the more the happier i am, i don't like the grill on this new one, and does anyone know when the production is supposed to start, even nissan has closed down that part of the site. what is this a fucking plane, it's a car, no need for this much security. if it's supposed to hit japans showrooms for the 07 model year, wouldn't that mean, in like the next month they will be out. anyone know, i wanna know if i should start saving, or if i am gonna get something else

OK Everyone Listen up . This is the story on the new GT-R from what i hear in the Nissan world.

The G35 body on the Proto Type is NOT going to be the body they are going to use. The new GT-R will have a whole new body style and frame, it;s own platform. The G35 body is being use "only" for testing of the drive train. Witch the drive train has been shown to put out allot of power ! so they have been working on dialing it down. The over 400hp twin turbo model will have a rev limiter with a max speed of , yeah believe it or not, 98 mph . Nissan is working on trying to raise it. But they have been fine tuning it as best as possible and found this area to be the sweet spot. If you have any Questions , i will do my best to try to answer them. Enjoy the info

i don't believe that the limited speed would be 98mph, i mean do you really think they'd be able to sell a sports coupe, or watever it's considered for 70g if it can't even go quiker than my dodge neon that has a forth the power. i can beleive that they would use a g35 for testing, being that it's called the skyline in japan

I do like the R34 body better than the new GT-R, but I don't think it's horribly disgusting. It's way different from any other car, if you cut out the 350Z, rx-8, and mustang. I think they should have kept the RB26 motor in it, instead of switching to a V6.

I take that back. I think the new design is totally awesomely amazing.

[vectorspecialist]

the new design isnt the worst thing imaginable for the car, but i want it to b boxy, boxy is good, granted people would have a hard time justifying buying that over an evo or sti, and just upgraded the two of those to eual power. also if toyota reell ydoes come out with a supra, i say put a n/a versin in comp with the 350z and a twin turbo against the gtr

[Sitruc_bc]

I'll own one someday, and I shall call it spunky.

[jBz]

Its been said in many previous posts I'm sure, but the reason Nissan won't stick with the RB26DETT is that it is outdated by a good decade. Word on the streets is that the new GT-R will be rockin' a bored/stroked VQ35DE with turbos slapped on, or perhaps a totally new V8 block based on the VQ design...

vq37dett thats the engine its a 6

Vq37hrtt

You are smoking more crack that was in DC in '85!!! You must be talking about the new Altima...

There is no way in hell that the car you are portraying will be anything close to what Nissan will release as the next Godzilla!!! They have had way too much money and way too much time to release another 300zx. That is what the 350z was for. As far as a new platform the entire reason of having the same platform as the 350 and the G35 is cost savings. The reason the R34 died was because it was on its own platform. Nissan won't make the same mistake twice... well actually a fourth time.

And as far as the body... it is the next obvious transformation of the R34. Think about it... R34 + a 100+ million in wind tunnel testing = the profile that was released at the 05 TAS. Trim and minor details have been tweaked but the main body lines are pretty much set. It is going to look like a sexed up Altima like a corvette looks like an stretched Cobalt.

Bottom line everything you have said is either completely recokulious or has been directly contridicted by the CEOs of Nissan and Renault who are in charge of the GTR35 project.

The GTR35 will be unbelievably fast, responsive and probably still get better fuel efficiency than most things on the market including a lot of "economy" cars released in the states because of the volumetric efficiency increases of adding a pair of perfectly matched turbos, Nissans variable valve timing (that has been copied by every manufacturer on the planet from Honda rice burners to GM trucks) and don't forget the incredibally low drag coefficient of the GRT35.

Nissan has had ties with all the right companies for the past 5 years to screw up the billions in company investment to flop this car onto the market with a 98 MPH limit. That would top it out at about 5k in fourth!!! There is no way that any respectable company would ever release a sports car with a speed limiter holding it to less than 140.

This next evolution of what a true enthusiast bread automobile is suppose to be will most likely keep pace with the enzos and GT4s because of the pure drivability of it. It might be lacking a bit on the straights but will make up for it in the corners; entrance, apex and exit. The engineers at Nissan have had that down for decades and I expect that the new GTR will do the same thing the R34 did... put the rest of the automakers on the planet to shame!!! There isn't a 273hp gentlemen’s agreement on engines any more in Japan so expect well into the upper 400s if not above 500HP.

I have said it for over three years now... I am expecting Nissan to release the world's first mass produced first hybrid supercar in less than six months... 450+HP at the rear wheels with up to 150 ft-lb, possibly more, assist on the front wheels. Electrically spooled turbos will make it have the response of a supercharger without the parasitic loss of a SC.

Have any of you actually been listening to the "spy" reports at the Nurembergring? Everything has been just behind the curtin for years... Don't be suprised when the GTR34 has the VQ42DETT V-8 with cylinders that "turn off" for fuel efficiency, warmup and EPA regs. This is the next version of the Nissan Skyline and it will change the world of driving for decades to come just like it's older and less refined brother did in 97.

This car is going to put everything on the road to shame...

Shift for shift...
dollar for dollar...
horsepower for spine twistinging horsepower... I will happily trade at least a year my life for one, and if you haven't put down the grand deposit at the dealer it might be too late.

The GT-R34 was NOT on it's own platform, the same platform had been used for numerous other JDM nissans including the Stagea.

As I've said before, numerous sources have said that Nissan has confirmed the VQ37HRTT. And the VQ is a V6, not an 8. What your thinking of is a sick joint venture fantasy between GM and Nissan/Renault that luckily was never conceived until you thought it up.

[jdebauge]

let me supply a few of the better sources than R&T for ya. Magazines are there to provide missinformation. If you actually know people and have been watching the racing serieses in Japan then you know what engines are comming and what they have... Wake up and realize that the internet is scoured for all the correct information that they don't want released and it is pulled. The only stuff that is left is a bunch of crap!!!! The VQ42 was all over the Japanese racing circuit in 01 and 02 but you can't even find a link on it any more that says anything... some say magic beans... I say lawyers.

I'm scared to ask if you even follow F1??? Hummmm a V8 configuration???? never seen that b4. Renault has the best F1 engine on the planet. Sorry to say but it is even better than Ferrari's.... Need I say any more???

And as far as it being a supercharged engine... That would never fly in Japan. It wouldn't sell at all. Superchargers are for people who don't know how to drive a turboed engine... and everyone who is in the market to buy this car either knows or is just dropping cash and won't know any better one way or the other. Think about it... when was the last time that a supercharged car was released by a japanese company??? and if you even say "THE TITAN!!!" I am going to stop what I should be doing just to track down where you live, drive to the hole you sleep in and slap some sense into you.

Just because you have posted a lot doesn't mean that you aren't a slack jawed moron... NEWBIE!!! You've only been on AF for THREE MONTHHS and you have 300+ posts??? hell you are probably one of the misinformation plants. I am just a guy that keeps my eyes open and my ears to the ground. Every now and then I pop my head up and say a few things but you really pissed me off. HEY LOOK AT ME I CAN QUOTE AND TYPE... Look at me... look at me... talk to meeeeee.... I haven't seen a sadder and more pathetic excuse of an atempt to not be a wet behind the ears, virgin, newbie... give it up man. Just because you post a lot of junk doesn't make you right. If you would spend as much time researching as you do spouting off about stuff you don't know then you actually might be a good addition to the internet.

It is people like you who have ruined the net. - I'm Done with this one... Who's next?

Google didn't translate for me at all, so if there's any interesting informaton there, please bring it forward. Anyway, R&T is a long running publication and even if they weren't, it dosen't make them any less reliable than the guy that posted the comment on the VQ42DETT and just because the engine was on the japanese racing circut, dosen't mean Nissan is going to use it in the next GT-R.

All I said is that the VQ-series are all V6s.

Well, there was Toyota's 4AGZE engine that was supercharged, but I never said anything about a supercharger.

Oh boo hoo, I post a lot and use quotes. And I can see how a big long explanation on how much I suck makes you so much more mature .
Your going to need to work a hell of a lot harder than that if you really want to piss me off. Is calling some random 15 year old emo shithead a narcissistic, pussy ass, newbie really that emotionally fulfilling to you?
