CHRIS FORSBERG gets an m35

I have been wanting to build a 4 door car for a very long time, and Nissan was awesome enough to set me up with this M35! It is in fantastic shape and I will start the build next week. I will try to post as many pictures along the way of the progress. The plans are to run a VK56 engine in it like our 350Z. Here’s a quick picture of the car as it sits.

2012 GT-R plans

2012 Nissan GT-R Features More Horsepower, New "Black Edition," Revised Fascias and

Carbon Fiber Interior Trim

– Nissan's Multi-Dimensional 530-Horsepower Supercar Makes North American Debut at Los

Angeles Auto Show, Set to Go On Sale in Early 2011–

Entering its fourth year of availability in the North American market, the 2012 Nissan GT-R has a

new look, new colors, new wheel design and, most important to fans of pure power, more

horsepower under the hood. In addition, a new "Black Edition"– with unique seats, interior

colors and wheels– joins the GT-R Premium model. The latest iteration of Nissan's legendary

supercar makes its North American debut that the 2010 Los Angeles Auto Show and will be

available at official "GT-R certified" Nissan dealers across the United States in early 2011.

The 2012 Nissan GT-R's advanced VR38DETT 3.8-liter twin turbo V6 now produces 530

horsepower (versus the previous 485 horsepower) and 488 lb-ft of torque (versus the previous

434 lb-ft)– a result of modifying the boost pressure of the turbocharger, valve timing and air

mixture ratio, and through reducing intake air resistance by enlarging the inlet pipe diameter. In

addition, exhaust air resistance was reduced through use of an enlarged section of exhaust

pipe.

GT-R's already impressive aerodynamics have been improved for 2012 with downforce

increased by about 10% and the coefficient of drag reduced to 0.26 (from 0.27). Stability is

improved by enlarged fascia and grille openings, which also help reduce air resistance inside the

engine compartment. The volume of air that passes through the radiator and cools the front

brakes is also increased.

The newly refreshed front fascia features aggressive double rectifier fins and new integrated

high intensity LED running lights. Additional plated parts are used for the headlight inner

panels, enhancing the car's strong visual presence.

The redesigned rear fascia features a lower center of gravity than the previous design, created

by using a sculpted lower section and extended length. Underfloor cooling performance is also

enhanced and air resistance reduced by extending the rear diffuser.

In addition, cooling performance for the muffler is improved and rear downforce is increased by

about 10% through use of a new rear fascia outlet and new vents on the lower rear fenders that

help remove air from the rear wheel wells. Newly designed larger diameter tailpipe finishers

are also adopted. Six exterior colors are available, including two new colors: Deep Blue Pearl

and jet black. Other available colors are solid red, gun metalic, peral white, and a limited production 4- stage metalic super silver.

GT-R's newly desinged, lighter weight and more rigid forged alumminum 20 - inch wheels, once again manufactured by RAYS, help inprove suspension response. knurling inside the wheels is modified to help keep the tires from slipping around the wheels under heavy acceleration or braking. the wheels also feature a new premium dark ( near black) finish, which provides a high quality performance look. the black eddition features special black six spoke RAYS lightweight wheels in place of the premium 10 spoke desing.

 

 inside,  the revisions for the 2012 include new carbon fiber trim and upgraded materials. the black eddition add custom red trimmed recaro seats, red and black interior trim and a dark headliner.

 

"the nissan GTR continues to be a multi-dimensional performance machine that lives up to its concept of 'THE ULTIMATE SUPER that can be driven by anyone, anytime, anywhere,'" said AL Castignetti, vice president and general manager, NISSAN DIVISION, Nissan North America, inc. "with enhancements for 2012, including its 530 harsepower twin turbo v6 and revised styling, the GT-R legend continues to grow. we cant wait for its arrivals in nissan showrooms and on the street in the U.S.

 

More information well be released in the coming months.

 

 

almost there

well today we spent most of the day trying to get the car ready so we could make it to vegas drift 21... how ever one bajo bolt proved to be very hard to find here in las vegas. after driving around to all the local hardware stores to try and get a banjo bolt we ended up empty handed. oh well atleast the car is down on all fours, and rolling around. it has been a long time in the making.

once the car starts and is up and driving we will do a feature on it. but until then, here are some shots i snapped as we rolled it out of the garage for the first time it has ever seen then sun in a while. it is a little dirty, some body panels need to be lined up, and the stance need to be adjusted a little. but we are just happy to see it out and rolling around. it was a very late night last night and an early morning today to get it this far. and for a little side note... an infinity G20 water neck will work just fine on an SR20. you can take that to the bank.

so sit back and enjoy.... there are more then 30+ pictures on my flickr. click here to check them out

HOLY SWEET ALTEZZA
