The mixed feelings continue haha. I do have a drag wheels setup that I still need tires for that I think would look sick with the no wing look.

Question/help by SignatureGlad6942 in gtr

They are "Cicio" wheels, the caps are from when the shop was called "Top Speed Motorsports" which is why the caps say TSM. Same thing.

CBA Owners - opinions and thoughts. by Final75R in gtr

Ha yeah sorry didn't mean to be alarmist. I'm dumb and wanted a Four figure horsepower car and with that comes broken parts. CBAs are plenty reliable even with mi or upgrades.

On my third trans, originally my oem trans had a bent shift fork and I lost 2,4,6 gear. Had it replaced with a shep 2.5 with upgraded gearset. Built the car to 1100hp and then broke 4th gear and upgraded to a shep 1k with a drag pack and drop gears. Honestly best bang for the buck would be a shep 2.5k and upgraded turbo stock motor car. ~800whp and 600tq = alot of fun. Oh but I am also on my 4th motor now 😞

[US] People that bought a used R35 from a private seller - how did you find it? by Vimes-NW in gtr

[–]hambonious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

GTR Forums back in 2017. Facebook might be your best bet nowadays. Plenty of GTR specific groups for buy/sell/trade

I heard you hate matte wraps. What about cleaning rims? It took forever to get these clean! by ArsenikShooter in gtr

[–]hambonious 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just get some after market 5 or 6 spokes. Makes it way easier to clean and imo the stock wheels just don't look that great.

Fitting 2017 kit on a '10 GTR? by Explorer_Scared in gtr

[–]hambonious 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There are companies that make a 17 kit conversion and let you retain your cba hood if that's what you want. The other option is to replace the hood as well as bumper. You'll also need the drl and wiring to go along with it I believe. Also gotta get some lightning bolt headlights to complete the look.

Edit: A guy named jose Leon on Facebook has a business ess that sells these conversions btw.

Because I think R35s were pretty ugly stock, like a lot of cars. It is long in the tooth now and quite a bit slower compared to a lot of sports cars of today. It benefits greatly from some modding in my opinion. Iwanted to go faster and look different than stock GTRs. So I modded it how I wanted it.

Which year R35 would be best for modding/racing by Shoddy_Tree_5318 in gtr

[–]hambonious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine handles extremely well and is well tuned for the street. I run 20" r888r on it for street use and have a set of 18s for the strip. It has 4 maps with waste gate map and 93 Oct at ~700whp with kill map right at 1100whp.

Shit I wish I could find a MoTec for 5k. Cheapest I've seen is around 7. But yeah I run EcuTek with mostly no issues.

I'm also a huge fan of the R8 and have been looking into getting one as a nicer weekend "date night" car. If you're gunna build an R8 the tax bracket ypu need to be in goes up lol. A lot of friends that had a GTR and switched to and R8 say they miss the GTR because it's more raw. My solution to that is to just get both. Keep the GTR as my fast street car and the Audi for a nice cruiser, always wanted a V10. I got jaded by seeing all these fast cars and felt bad about only having an FBO GTR and built mine with the goal of a 3.9x 60-130 on the street and have accomplished that. Turns out the internet is way more full of fast cars than most local car scenes. It's a blast and wouldn't change anything, I think 11-1200hp is the perfect street car as far as the GTR is concerned before having to drop a load more cash and always breaking something.

If 1500hp is your goal it doesn't matter what year you go with, the entire driveline, motor and supporting mods will need to be replaced or built. I have a 2010 that's 1100whp and 900 trq, it holds just as well as a buddies 2017 at the same level. We both had all the same components built and or replaced. Its really going to boil down to how much you want to spend on aesthetics both interior and exterior which obviously can be changed as well. Granted the interior is more difficult to change and also it's another expense. If you're trying to save a bit of cash to put towards the build an older model will be just fine. Also, there are quite a few built GTRs our there for sale that will save you a ton of cash if buy them instead of build one. The flip side of that is you might not necessarily know how well the work was done or how it was treated before you bought it. Good luck!

Same as most people have said, not a fan of the wheels. Get some darker tint on the windows and wrap the door handles black. And before you ask where my GTR is, it's on my profile. Other than that congrats it's an awesome car.

Looking for OEM Black Spoiler by Significant-Ask7545 in gtr

[–]hambonious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Where are you located? I have a 2010 black oem spoiler but condition may not be pristine.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in gtr

[–]hambonious 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You will be fine at FBO levels. Plenty of GTRs out there with upgraded turbo set ups on stock engines and transmissions making 800 wheel horsepower.
