I would absolutely agree that would be a problem, if the weight hindered the gtr, but it doesnt.

We should really have a sticky for Dyno discussion, save repeating the same thing every time someone isnt happy with a read out! Maybe someone like HDev or Abbey could do a write up on what to or not to expect, what they actually use the dyno for etc etc

I am sorry to be brutally honest but i have no idea why people believe these manufacturer claims, in this case around 22whp, that could mean anything from 1 - 22 imho. 22whp on a naturally aspirated car from just an exhaust, i would like to see it. All dynos read different buddy, they are tuning tool, take the figures with a pinch of salt, if the car drives better thats all you should be concerned with, dyno figures are just pub bragging rights

https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/next-nissan-gtr Recent chat with the man at Goodwood, lots of smokes and mirrors in there, but would be shocked if it didnt end up with some form of electrickery, especially as we are a few years away from release.

Rays, Volk Racing or Nismo LMGT4,

To answer your question simply, lets say you are 400hp and running a 3" single exit, you wont get anymore hp by running a 4" single exit, you are already flowing enough air on 3" for say the 400hp, as you go up in power of course, you may need to up the diameter to cope with the air flow needed for say 500hp. Same goes for running a dual and this is where it gets funky, you would think to match a single 3" you would need two 1.5" dual, but that is not the case, you need to work with pye r squared to work out volume. A few gentle bends here and there make little difference, so a decent dual wont affect flow rates or if the same diameter pipe as a single it wont increase the hp as you already making the most of the breathing your engine can supply. I would imagine as above most guys running single are doing so for the weight saving. To be fair, when i was booking my fi'd zed to be mapped with hdev i asked what of my two exhausts would give better figures, single fujitsubo or dual hks, the answer was it really wont make any or little difference. I truly doubt you will get on any track day with a single. https://www.hotrod.com/articles/what-exhaust-pipes-work-best/

When you say official, what do you mean, as you say you could buy them in varying sizes, widths and offsets? There a quite a few places listing weights if you do a google search

You would sure like to think so

^^^ I would guess if they do produce the 50 and its a "special edition"" i doubt they would be doing colour to order imho.

I am not sure where you have got any of that, most of the speculation/talk is a smaller v6 with hybrid, design wise, well thats anyones guess.

Wouldnt that depend on the R36 when any details have been released, looks, spec, price etc?

Ive not been to many tracks where you can use the extra capacity of a 1000cc +, certainly in the uk, barring maybe Silverstone, in most cases you would be faster on a 600cc, having said that, i can totally relate to wanting big cc. I know they are a thing of the past but imho its a shame they dropped 750's, my Zx7R was such a good bike to ride, i much preferred that to the Zx9RC1 i ended up with.

Love to pop along if ok

I am the same, i find it so difficult to justify a car if i am not using it, although its a passion and hobby. I dont really get much satisfaction from driving on the roads anymore, all you seem to do is sit in traffic or get stuck behind something and the flip side is i dont have the time to do a couple of track days a month at the moment. I must admit since selling the VX last year i dont miss it, but do keep hankering after having something nice, catch 22

Andy James used his leather seats in one of the most focused and competitively used Zed on the forum up until recently, so thats a pretty sweeping statement, as dear old Ekona says, seats are very dependent on size and shape of owner, i had no issues with support with mine, but i guess the op does. Good luck op, some good info on here, i havent watched the video but before i went near anything else i would get into some adjustable arb's, transforms the car imho.

I would imagine if you asked the general car buying masses about Infinity, they wouldnt even know who they are, so probably answers your question about why people arent buying, imho of course.

I think your wish will be granted

I would imagine anyone was has £800k burning a hole in their pocket probably has all of the above anyway, your into a completely different level of wealth if thats in budget.

There are some fairly reasonable looking cars, GT86, Mx5 as an example, but there are no really good lookers i.e Rx7, but there are some complete shockers too. CTR, which blots the page. I think its a real shame when they put something together like the FT1, which imho was absolutely stunning, they can obviously do it, they just dont To be fair Skylines can never be described as good looking, but they have always looked purposeful and aggressive, i think the above just takes that to a new level.

In the all encompassing wheel and tyre thread

Most positive thing to take as agreed with you earlier and it is exciting for sure, plus i think Southgate is the best manager we have had for a long time, not forgetting Pickford, a revelation, probably would have been out earlier if it wasnt for him. But lets be frank, no matter how good you think they were tactically etc, they were average at best, semi's or not, played 6, won 3, lost 2, drawn 1, against average competition.

I think this is the highlight to take out of it all, in a couple more years with other players coming in, we will have a credible side imho. But.... You can discuss tactics, ref decisions, chances for and against etc simply put they havent beaten a really decent team yet, i personally think if they had gone up against France they would have been embarrassed, so in a way, i am pleased they havent made the finals. One thing that really grated me though was all the pundits highlighting lack of experience, it wasnt so long ago we had a wealth of experience, Lampard, Ferdinand, Rooney, Gerrard etc etc and they did even worse and it was said they were too old. Lets see if they can beat Belgium this time around.

I have had 235's on a 9.5 and run 275's on 9.5, 10.5 and 11 in the past!
