Gtr

[jmrev]

the US skyline is coming in 2007 but will no longer carry the SKYLINE badge so we in the US will never see a production car sold here with the SKYLINE badge, so it will be called NISSAN GT-R (R35), it will not be an INFINITY (true they already sell the skyline in the US as an infinity model but the chassis is different than previous model skylines<v35> and there will not be a GTR version to the V35). The engine on the 07 gtr is ,might be a VQ32DETT bassically the 350z's engine with less displacement,twin turbo. Wich Lotus is working on the R35 with many components such as hadling (suspension ect.) and its said to have 450bhp, i think if it doesnt have an RB26DETT is not worth being the new GTR

So it's not the US Skyline then, is it?

so it will be called NISSAN GT-R (R35), it will not be an INFINITY (true they already sell the skyline in the US as an infinity model but the chassis is different than previous model skylines<v35>

The "Infiniti GT-R" trademark has already been registered.

and there will not be a GTR version to the V35).

So what car are you talking about?

The engine on the 07 gtr is going to be a VQ35DETT bassically the 350z's and most of other Nissans engine with twin turbo. Wich Lotus is working on the R35 with many components and its said to have 450bhp

The motor will be a dry sumped VQ32DETT with electronically assisted turbos built by Cosworth. Lotus is helping with suspension and handling characteristics.

but in my opinion is ugly!

You don't know what the car looks like yet.

wow someone just got owned.

Well, at least he didn't whine about the car not having an RB. It's not like Nissan can just retool their factories to start building them again after two years...and that's if they got the RBs to pass emissions.lol

There are no official pictures. Any renderings are pure speculation. You can say the concepts and renditions are ugly, but you can't say anything about the real car. You don't know what the car will look like. None of us do.

The Skyline 350GT is not identical to the G35. There are several other options available for the Japanese model, including an 8-step CVT with paddle shifters.

The car will be called the GT-R. The "Skyline" and "GT-R" names were rumored to have been separated, and the recently registered "Infiniti GT-R" trademark finally confirms that.

My personal theory is that since the two names are separate, you will need two different chassis designations for the two models. The Skyline got the new "V" designation, so the GT-R might keep the "R" designation going.

I dont know if my theory is correct but this is the way i see it: lets take toyota's celica 95 the chassis is st202, it carries a 5s-fe engin the 's' in the chassis code meaning it carries an 'S' engine, the new celica gts chassis(00-04) has the chassis zzt230 and it has a 2zz-ge engine the chassis has changed because of the ZZ engine. But previous skylines have a enr32 & bnr32 ....and so on they all have a rb engine or short for just r series..im not sure this is correct, because the 350z chassis is z33 unless if it has a V before the z33. now in the case of the infinity g35 the chassis is v35 im guessing because of the VQ engine...........like i said that is the way i see it, but if this was correct many of the nissans must have a V in their chassis code .
