Q: is there a Nissan Gt-r 1999 in the us that is for sale?
i can only find it in japan for some reason

A: GT-Rs weren't sold in the US until the new R35 went on sale. The only way you'll find one in the US is if some idiot paid a ridiculous amount of money to have one imported and modified to meet US laws. There are a few, but they're very expensive, and very hard to find.

For half the money of a Porsche turbo, the GT-R is faster on track and acceleration. How will this affect the competition if there is any?

A: No matter what you do to it, it is still a Nissan. You will have plenty of boobs living in the suburbs going oooh-ahhh and buying them. However, I assure you that said boobs would rather have a Porsche.

I have an '06 911 Carrera 4s and love it. I'd gladly drop another $80k on a second 911 before I'd spend $80k, let alone $40k on a Nissan.

2009 Nissan GT-R: Awesome From Afar

The 2009 Nissan GT-R has broken cover. Or rather, several well-known automotive media outlets have blown its cover! When the December 2007 cover of Motor Trend got leaked (or swiped) from the printer, press embargoes were tossed aside, along with it the thin veil of secrecy the GT-R was still hiding. Namely its off-the-chart performance numbers: 0-60 mph in 3.5 seconds, 11.7-second quarter mile, and top speed of 193 mph. Better still, the supercar is expected to be in the amazingly affordable $70-80K range.

Unveiled at Last

The black covers that hid the GT-R’s nose are gone and reveal a chiseled carbon fiber nose piece, flanked on both sides by small canards molded into the bumper itself. Look closely, and you can see how the deep front splitter directs air to the radiator and around the car. The sleek shape of the new R35 is a commendably slick 0.27 Cd (co-efficient of drag). Twin NACA ducts in the hood channel air directly to the small IHI turbos located underneath. They’re not the only low-drag aero devices used on the car, either. The front fenders have functional air ducts that sweep back from the sides of the car, drawing heat away from the engine compartment. One detail not readily apparent is the rear carbon-fiber splitter that uses airflow under the chassis to develop downforce. While standard practice for LeMans prototypes, these types of details are reserved for only a few road-going machines. Nissan engineers knew the enormous performance envelope for this car would require every (aero) trick in the book! Rear styling of the R35 features the iconic twin round taillights of the GT-R series. All in all, Nissan stylists have created a modern, functional shape that pays appropriate homage to the legendary line.

V-6 Power First for GT-R

Looking under the hood of the new PM (Prime Midship) chassis reveals the front-mounted engine is mounted far back for better weight distribution. But there’s no blown straight six for this thoroughly modern supercar. The new twin turbocharged 3.8 liter V-6 is named the VR38 and puts out 473 hp at 6,400 rpm and 433 lb-ft of torque at 5,200 rpm in its initial state of tune. No doubt Nissan will have more on tap for the future, but all appearances suggest that this is the engine to be federalized for North American use. Expect the compact IHI turbos to have little to none of the dreaded turbo lag of years past. An extremely clean turbo installation utilizes separate plenums and tuned intake runners for each bank of the engine. Expect to hear more details on this amazing powerplant in the near future.

Meanwhile, a carbon fiber prop shaft transfers power to the rear- mounted transaxle. Utilizing a six-speed, direct-drive semi-automatic gearbox, Nissan’s latest AWD creation can vary power delivery from 50/50 (front/rear) to 2/98 for heavy acceleration. By utilizing the paddle shifters, GT-R pilots may sample full-throttle, no lift upshifts, and computer-guided downshifts with full rev matching. The GT-R’s suspension is more familiar, with twin wishbones up front and a five-link rear. The dampers are electronically controlled, with three separate programs (race, sport and comfort) available at the touch of a button. More extreme are the 20” alloy wheels with massive six-piston Brembo (front) and four-piston (rear) calipers with equally enormous 15.2” rotors. You’ll need that kind of stopping power, as the latest R35 is expected to tip the scales at a touch over 3,792 pounds.

Silken Hammer

Inside the cockpit, it’s luxury blended with pure performance. Racing-style leather seats with large side bolsters will hold you (and your passengers) in place, although I’m not sure anyone really wants to be tossed around in the smallish 2+2 seats in back! A beautifully sculpted instrument panel features a center-mounted tach (with a 7K redline) and a smaller speedo on the left. The instruments move up and down with the steering wheel, so each driver can find the perfect position. Nissan continues their superb job in blending traditional control surfaces with cutting edge technology. A good example is the center stack with traditional HVAC controls in the center and a large video screen just above this. Toggling through this display provides such diverse information as turbo boost, g-loadings, engine performance parameters and which of the really hot girls is lusting for a ride in your new GT-R. OK, I made that last one up. Step into the new R35 and you’ll find everybody wants a ride!

A: Bad ass. I've wanted one since i saw the nurburgring shots 2 years ago. Nissan knows how to build it. Finally, godzilla in the us.

Q: My nissan dealer did.....?
I am a tech at a medium size nissan dealer in the northeast. Apperently while setting up the sales infastructure for the upcoming sales launch for the GT-R the dealers were asked to sign a sales contract to sell the car. My dealer and one other in the NE decided not to sell the gt-r. That is fine with me.
The issue is that after talking to an instructor in somerset we were told that we could not enroll in a training class designed around the gt-r! So if a customer that purchases his gt-r outside our dealer and has an issue he needs repaired,we will be left in the dark about the specific systems in the car. I suppose we can only apply basic automotive knowledge and nissans technical service manual to the issue. Thats fine to, but every tech knows that is not always enuf. Does anyone know this to be be set in stone? Also, if anyone has experiance with nissan training, will this affect my (seemingly) never ending ambition to become a Nissan Master tech?

A: To bad dude your dealership will not have the special tools either. A real bad sign when a dealership will not invest in the latest technology and special alignment rack for four wheel drive low slung car. Try to change there minds!
I made the case that the advertizing alone will bring in customers who want to see the super car and we only get three based on last years 350Z sales. The 14 of January is the deadline ask your sales department how many GTR's they qualify for.
The dealerships investment is huge over $20,000 for special tools even Nitrogen tire filling equiptment. One master technician possably ME gets a week in Memphis. Four months ago SuperTech training was to be held in Japan and would last one month DARN I was ready to drive around Kobe Japan.

Q: The Nissan GT-R just beat the Porsche Turbo and BMW M3, how will this affect BMW and Porsche sales?

For half the money of a Porsche turbo, same price as the BMW M3, the GT-R is faster on track than a bugatti and porsche, with an acceleration time from 0-60 of 3.2 seconds Faster than a Ferrari Enzo). How will this affect the competition if there is any?

I don't know where EuroStud gets his info from but the GT-R's 0-60 time of 3.2 sec is from edmunds insideline. Nissan claims the GT-R will go at least 3.5 seconds and Porsche only claims a 0-60 time of 3.6 sec for the GT2. I would just expect a Porsche to cost more than 3 times as much to be faster than the GT-R, a Nissan.

A: I love all three of these cars, but I doubt that the GT-R's awesome engineering will affect the sales of either German car. People who buy that Porsche are buying it mostly for it's "awe" factor. When you see a 911 Turbo, you instantly think of how successful the driver must be. Those who buy the M3 are usually hardcore German car enthusiasts who would slit their wrists if the M3 seized production. People who buy BMWs are some of the most brand-loyal people on earth (there is just something about a BMW that feels very different than anything else). The Nissan GT-R is going to appeal to a completely different audience. Probably younger, successful people who want it purely because it is so freakin' fast. I doubt older people who have always been driving enthusiasts would even take a glance at the GT-R, mainly because it does not have a traditional manual transmission and it looks very futuristic, rather than expensive and fashionable. If I had to choose between the 3 cars, I think I would go for the M3. The Porsche is too expensive and cramped inside and the GT-R just looks too "video-game-ish" for me, if you get what I'm trying to say. I would also miss using a standard manual with the GT-R, which has a manu-matic gearbox.

A: I dont think it will effect the other companies ,the GTR has always been a challenge for the Porsche and the M3 in its try running power and this has never bothered them before.
Also owning a M3 and Porsche is more of a status symbol whilst the GTR has a different image and will appeal to different buyers .
Myself i would pick the GTR over any of the others.

As for the answer above about a bad Maxima etc a shame we had one and it was one of the best cars we ever had.Where on our 5th Nissan atm and i def want another one. next.
