more and more gtr's are being converted to rwd. heres just another example. well known driver nobuteru taniguchi and abe-chan team up to give this crazy modified r35 a go at drifting.

p.s. - anyone ever heard of Ben Sopra???

Phoenix Power had one of those models posted on it's page, I scrolled and saw about 2 secs and checked out other stuff. I figured it was a one of one. Guess not. Not impressed by the drifting but I'm rarely impressed by drifting anyway.

never heard a v6 sound as good

That fuel map looks like the pyramids of Giza.....horrible. Hate to see a waste of a good ec u when they cant tune it properly.

didn't look like a very fun car to drive. seemed like he was struggling to drift it. i suppose the blown turbo might have had something to do with it...

would be nice to know WHAT SIZE CAMS, WHAT SIZE PISTONS, and more specs.

People that do vids really need to learn more, and know what questions to ask.

edit: and because everyone has an opinion, I don't like what they did to this car. Like he said, they took a digital car and turned it into an analog car. Ruined what the new GTR is. No better, and probably worse then older cars out there. The chassis also looks rather heavy, or at minimum, they have not adjusted the suspension perfect yet. Cheers.

Speedhunters say this is Nomuken's 2012 D1GP car. Motor problems that day so NOB was drifting a non boosted R35.

DenkiMan! · 02-12-2012, 02:02 PM

i actually stumbled on a vid where Nomuken was drifting his GTR at Odaiba in september, but i think it was taken down because i cant find it anywhere...he wasnt competing, just showcasing it but it was pretty cool
