No more R35 (As the rumors continue)
Nissan employees leaked some info...much to the dismay of them, and the general populace. Still to be determined is if the leak was set up by Nissan...or a true leak. It did contain some extraordinarily dissapointing information. First the image....
Second...the engine will be a 3.5L V6 DOHC TT. Output of 380ps (almost the same when converted to HP) but will be A HYBRID ENGINE! HERE'S THE KICKER! The 4wd design at this time is a joint venture with Honda (the system was developed by Honda). The front wheels will be powered by in-wheel electric motors, while the rear wheels will be driven by the engine. On top of everything else...starting Sep 2002, new emissions standards in Japan may prevent further sales of the R34 engine... Also...the R series will be dropped as it is a remnant of Skyline. And the estimated price?.....8.2 million yen (75 thousand USD). ...I wish I were sensationalizing. Here's the pics from the article (which also include info on the New NSX and 5000GT

Here's the pics provided in the article.
By the way...the NSX is a 4.2L V8 w/ i-VTEC and the Toyo 5000GT is a 360 ps 5l V12 (NA) Also...the Supra is evolving (don't know if the name will keep) but it will be a 4.3l V8 @ 280PS. It's a big pic to post....but it looks like a new Celica with the side scoop of a Modena, flared fenders and a Corvette a*s with a Type R spoiler on top......how's that for a picture in your head!

Sorry but I don't like the way the 35 look! It just does not have the "fuck you" line anymore! It looks gay! (no offence to all gays though). And what about the hybrid engine? Can GTR2.7L explain please? 3.5litre TT sounds good and promising though. And what about this 4wd joint ventured with Honda? Front wheel powered by motor?
