They are finally here! :runaway:
We had the first R35 in the UK so it seemed the right move to get one of the first new “Enhanced” 2011 GTRs
I’m really pleased with the colours which look great in person, my first R35 was Black and the new pearl black is superb! I was unsure about the Blue when I put the order in but I’m really pleased with the choice, pictures don’t do it justice and it appears to change complete as the light moves. Of course, with pristine new cars we want to keep the paint in perfect condition, I had a good chat with Robbie (Valet Magic) about paint protection and wrapping options so it’ll be interesting to see what it looks like in a few weeks time.
First driving impressions are that the Nissan have made an effort to lift the interior quality, it feels much better with darker finish and carbon fibre. However as soon as you pull away you notice just how much better the revised suspension is! Comfort mode is much improved and is now very smooth. Engine power delivery is excellent and I look forward to seeing what software and hardware changes have been made. Ecutek already have the ECU information to work on :bowdown1:
Over the next couple of weeks we have a raft of testing work to do with the new car and we’re going to post a complete breakdown of the changes on the new car on our Blog and revised website Once underway I’ll start a new thread with lots of detailed information. We plan to remove the engine, turbos and gearbox to see just what has been “enhanced” and insure our current range of parts will fit.
In the meantime if anyone would like to see the cars in flesh give us a call as they are available to view.
I also want to thank Andy and Tony at Middlehurst for their impeccable service once again. They really are the most informed of all the Nissan HPCs and a pleasure to deal with :clap: :thumbsup:
Much, much more to follow
Kind regards
