someones broken there GTR already!

Looks like Hong Kong.

How long has that gen of GTR been available? I've seen a non GTR running about reasonably locally for most of this year. It's had a dent in the side of it for nearly the entire time. (c: Perhaps it was imported like that.

Since the start of December.

That would be a Skyline then, this isn't.

sounds like a G35 skyline not a GTR different beasts

The 350Z has been out for more than a year...

There are stories about people who have crashed on 1st day of ownership.

There are stories of people crashing newly registered cars a few days before they could be legally on the road.

There are numerous cases of people crashing on test drives. A few years ago someone in my town put a Porsche convertible soft side up a tree less than a mile from the dealer, killed himself, his wife and the salesman. Worst accident I've ever seen, I went past the scene before the road got closed.

Sad but true. As my instructor put it: "Showing off gets you killed." Entering a zone where you have no knowledge, can do the same.

You might be able to pay the machinery, you can't buy the expertise in a handsome package and download it in your brain. Which, after consideration, is not a bad thing.

Or as I put it: "The quickest way to crash it to say "Watch this!""

Last words of a redneck...

Sounds a lot like JC to Ian Wright on Top Gear when he put up a photo of his

360.

Dash clever, these Japs.

Ok, you win the "random comment of the thread" award. I'll bite though; what has a 350Z got to do with anything?

the skyline G35 uses the 350z chassis so i believe and the GTR does but a more modified version. also the G35 skylines uses the 350z V6 but it used to make more power at 280bhp but the new 350z is 300bhp with a nice lil power hump to the bonnet.

i love my jap crap :)

Not much connection between GTR chassis and 350Z. For a start the GTR has a new rear subframe with 6 mounting bushes/pins to the chassis and not 4 like the 350Z and every other Nissan sports/saloon with rear drive since 1988.

"To create the performance of a $400,000 supercar, Mizuno started withan all-new PM (premium-midship) chassis. Distinct from the FM(front-midship) configuration of such rear-drive Nissans as the 350Zand Infiniti G35,"

i was sure it did share some stuff, maybe i read it on the totally inaccurate wikipedia at some point :)

Most manufacturers share parts amongst their range, or even with fellow=20 companies. What did Nom=B2 always used to say - a Rover 600TI had brake=20 pads from the Honda NSX on, that doesn't mean that a Rover 600 is a=20 Honda NSX.

Just as a Nissan GTR is not a Skyline, nor is it a 350Z.

=B2 Where is Nom these days?
