2008 GTR spy shots

[Devioustsi]

[EvilJay]

Power will come from a 3.7-liter version of Nissan’s VQ powerplant. A pair of turbochargers will help it produce about 450 bhp and 360 lb.-ft. of torque.

Stock boost pressure will be limited to about 10 psi, but we hear that the engine is capable of handling a lot more. A tamer version of this V-6, codenamed VQ37HR-TT, will make its way into the upcoming Infiniti G35 Coupe. Key differences between the engines are that the GT-R’s VQ will have the twin turbochargers, lighter pistons and connecting rods, as well as a beefed-up crankshaft. Other custom parts may make their way into the engine, including racing profile camshafts and new valvetrain. It will come mated to a Getrag 6-speed transmission or a paddle-shift sequential automatic with seven or eight gears.

^ I’m fine with that

[boardjnky4]

so they are implying that the g35 is gonna get an na model?

i think thats hot and will definitely be a competitor in the higher up sports car world

[Pass_McGass]

That is hot as poo. That car would look hot wearing a deep purple paint job.

[RedDawg]

i’m more excited that it seems the G35 coupe will get the same engine just without the turbos

[fairgentleman_Z]

so they are implying that the g35 is gonna get an na model?

Yes, there are talks of NA versions either 3.7 l or 3.8 l making it into the G35 and 350Z. Probably as some rice “NISMO” package.

The rumor mill is turnig here…

well i dont think they will put anything but a 3.5 in the 350z or G35…they will have to change the names of the cars

[fairgentleman_Z]

No they don’t, they didn’t when they put a 4.3l into the Q45.

[MaximaSE98]

i was kidding sweety…

[boardjnky4]

nice, i think its gonna be kinda cool that they are gonna offer a model of the car in lots of diff price ranges that can cater to many needs

[Locutus]

they did with the other skylines too…

[Dr.Stevil]

The roof line on that car looks like absolutely shit. They should’ve continued the BNR chassis.

looks a lot like the dodge magnum roofline

all in all, not bad looking… I’d drive one

edit: ferrari styling cues in the in ass end too

[boardjnky4]

well, im mainly speaking about USandA

they have many different models of 350z(enthusiast, roadster, track, etc…), then u jump up, and u have the g35, then u have nismo models of 350z and g35(supposedly),then u jump up again to the skyline. just seems like u can definitely find some variation of this car to fit anyone who wants to drive a sports car. anywhere from ricey teens to track racers to retired old stock brokers.

gotta remember that for a long time, the 300zx na/turbo was really ur only choice for a good sports car out of nissan. well that and the 240sx, but thats not really even comparable to most sports cars.

[MaximaSE98]

OK…cause in Japan they had a bunch of models of the Skyline which i am sure u know…my fav. being the 4dr salon

[boardjnky4]

yea, and while that does interest me, i know i prolly will never own a skyline due to ghey retrictions.

i was actually thinking more along the lines of my future

[Onyx_Z32]

It’s called the GTR not the Skyline.

The Skyline is already here.
You can buy them now.
It’s also called the G35.
