i think he is exiting the corners way to aggressively. gtr's are fastest cars when it comes to exiting corners but the way he is doing it (like sliding it out of the corner) is not the best way and the tires needs to change every 10 laps.
try to go easy on the throttle when coming out of corners. this is one hell of a car.
that thing must absolutely chew tyres and fuel, looks like way too much oversteer, also E85, if they have pit stops in the racing won't the heavy fuel usage mean they pit more often?
man just looks so sloppy and all over the place, very very fast but looks horrible to drive
I thought that this was a drift race coz you aint got the car set up, it would be perfect for drifting. Great driving, awsum car ( I am a Holden man) try short shifting alittle more lol overall 8/10
the bonnet and leaking panels are slowing it down put all the rubbers back in and fix the bonnet its creating drag just look at 888 racing in 2004 the sealed the cars up and went faster.

mountain of horsepower but looks like it isnt set up all that well. I would be spending more time worrying about sorting suspension out to deliver the power rather than testing differences between the advan tyres
I dont know what they have done with the setup but he might want to either lower the high speed bump, soften up the swaybar on the rear or adjust the tyre pressures(depending on the temps he is getting). There are alot of diff. things that could obviously be the cause for the oversteers apart from the power,but he should be able to get more traction down. I loved the old r32, I was out at QR driving when he was testing just before he took it to Japan. Can't wait to see this one in the flesh too
Like i said to all the aussies at the track at QR. He never had a chance at beating the Japs at Superlap. The Japs own TC and time and time again have proven just how fast they are over there.
None the less, Kudo to the octane skyline, its no slouch thats for sure!
Wow.. The chassis isn't flexing, the window isn't plastic. Haven't you guys ever owned a car that has a door with a window that isn't framed all the way around it?
Actually ive owned R32's, R33 and currently own an R34. The windows dont flap around like that at all. Lexan make a lot more sense, especially considering the time attack nature of the car. The endless pusuit for weight reduction, and reducing front end weight means the glass was probably the first thing to go.
@marcosmendez25 , i think the rest of the drive train may hinder the r35's progress for a while.
in the r32 , i have never broken a standard drive shaft with many 100's of launches. In the r35 i have already broken a driveshaft and i have heard of others breaking theres too. also the transmission will require a complete redesign to handle 800 to 1000 hp launches. eg holinger etc
Well, maybe you´re right, because when the RB26DETT was released in 1989, the ECU and the ENGINE was hard to tune, but with time brands like HKS found the way to tune it, in few years the RB26DETT reached the 600 hp, and many years later the RB reached the 1000 hp! a similar situation is happening with the VR38DETT, at first people and Nissan said that the new VR was impossible to tune, and that´s not true. I hope to se soon a 9 secs 1/4 mile R35 and a 1000 hp R35. LONG LIFE TO THE GT-R!!
@manoomanum if only you knew what you were talking about, for starters check some of giantruss's video's then re watch this and pay special attention at 1:50 :D
sounds better, has a million times more character but lets face it. THe VR38 is a better engine. You cant argue with the numbers. Put it in a R34 and see what happens
@MotiveDVD I have to agree with marcosmendez25 i prefer the RB26 over the VR38, im not saying the VR38 isnt an impressive engine but the RB26 is just a legendary piece of engineering.
The VR38 is a good engine ONLY when it is placed in the R35 GT-R's trans-axle AWD system, in my personal opinion. The numbers show only how good an engine it is when it rolls out from the Nissan factory. The VR lacks the inpossible toughness of the RB26 and at the moment also lacks the 20 years worth of racing and tuning know-how that feed the RB's impossible performance.
just two tips on this beautiful car... fix the window, lol... unless that's part of the aero upgrade haha.. and perhaps the hood needs risers or reinforcement from flexing? both look like they're about to come off..
man, i can't believe how fast it can be and be so loose at the same time. frickin jumps all over the place. looses grip in a straight line. seems like a damper issue to me (not a professional)
Looks great, might just have to keep that rear wing at full attack till well after you exit the corner cause there seems to be smoke comming from the rear tyres, lol.
I was thinking the same thing. Perhaps tie in the wing actuator control to lateral G sensors.
Is that door opening due to engine torque twist or just general chassis twist. I know they do twist somewhat when jacked up, but i figured this car would be full of bracing not to mention having the cage tied into the shell.
I suppose that's why they're testing all these different aero bits - to get more downforce exiting corner - that's when he seems to be struggling for traction.
Don't rule this car out, it's very quick and the driver has a good knowledge of the track.
Generaly a track is wet if it has been raining. And as you can see in this video its dry and in some shots you can actually see how much heat is in the track from the heat haze being emitted from the tarmac. Another dead giveaway is the lack of spay from the rear of the car and film deposits on the vehicle itself. The reason for all this sideways action is A power and B incorrect set up as it has been confirmed by GIANTRUSS
