grahamc Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 (edited) After more than 5 years of owning this utterly brilliant car, it needs to be sold. I bought the car new (from Middlehurst) in August 2011. So its a 2010 model but on an 11 plate. It has been well looked after by Sly from day 1 and is still serviced by him at least twice a year. The car has been detailed at least once a year and will go in for a detail prior to sale ready for the new owner. Nissan R35 GTR Black Edition Red Under 45k miles (will go up as its being used) 654bhp MOT was done in August Engine -Litchfield intakes -Whifbitz silenced ypipe -Milltek downpipes -ASNU injectors -Forge headertank -Stainless steel undertray bolts -ECUTek V5 Litchfield map -ECUTek Nismo gearbox map -ECUTek cable -Powder coated manifold, with engine cover removed -Pop-up cancellors Transmission -Litchfield bellhousing fix -Forge transmission cooler Handling -20" Projex wheels -Toyo R888R staggered setup (new fronts are about to go and the rears have 4mm) -Eibach anti-rollbars -MY12 suspension Brakes -DBA discs (new front discs, Alcons are about to go on) -Pagid RS29 pads (new fronts are about to go on) -Braided lines -Uprated brake fluid -New rear brake clips - rattle fix -Custom brake cooling ducts (ducted air from the front to the middle back of the discs - cannot get beyond orange on AP temp paint) Exterior -Big-mouth front satin black wrap (done in July this year) -Ducktail bootlid - colour coded -Satin black wrapped front splitter (done in July this year) -Satin blackwrapped bonnet vents (done in July this year) -Satin blackwrapped mirrors (done in July this year) -Satin blackwrapped side skirts (done in July this year) -Satin blackwrapped rear splitter (done in July this year) -Calipers painted black (fronts are about to be re-done) -Exhaust tips painted black -Top Secret auto folding mirror kit -4 rear light kit -Custom hidden mounting for BenSopra style rear spoiler Interior -Carbon dipped gear surround -Carbon dipped centre console -Carbon dipped vents -Carbon dipped door trim -Carbon dipped paddles -Larger shift paddles -Trimmed steering wheel -BlackVue HD (front and passanger facing) -Front and rear facing parking cameras -Audio Vision front door speakers -Custom sub box (JL 8", Vibe AMP) -SatNav has been upgraded to 2012 -Tracker (aftermarket one) -Luxury mats The car has been a pleasure to own, with very few issues. I have had an issue with the battery not holding charge (battery was replaced), steering lock recall by Nissan, headlamp condensation (Nissan replaced) and an o2 sensor issue (both replaced). Excluding stock and Miskin, I believe this is one of the quietest exhaust systems going, I have been tested at 90db static at Thruxton, Castle Combe and Goodwood. However driveby at Goodwood got all the way up to 104db The car has been used as it should be on road trips, events, track, etc and most will probably the know the car. Here is the thread of the life of the car so far:- http://www.gtr.co.uk/forum/164758-my-gtr-red-my10.html Photos of the car over time:- Nissan GTR by Graham ... | Photobucket Price is:- £42500 Edited July 17, 2017 by grahamc 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samsniss350z Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 Graham, what a fantastic car with an absolutely fantastic spec. My partner has just removed my bib and she's about to put a clean one on and put the dribbly one in the washing machine. She just can't understand why I've been scrolling from the spec sheet to the photo's and back again for the last half hour. No matter how much i try to explain it goes straight over her head, GLWS. If i can sell the house I'd be happy living in a shed over the winter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willsy1980 Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 If only.... Stunning motor, seems cheap too. Maybe ask these guys if they are interested http://www.rsdirectbristol.co.uk/sales/ they do a lot of high end cars mostly modded ones. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahamc Posted November 10, 2016 Author Share Posted November 10, 2016 (edited) Not in a rush to sell.... Car has new Alcon front discs, front RS29 pads and a new front set of R888Rs to go on once they current fronts are properly dead. Calipers have been refurbed (repainted and new seals), just waiting for them to arrive back. Should be picking up the car tomorrow afternoon and it will be at Brands Hatch on Monday for a track day.

grahamc Posted June 19, 2017 Author Share Posted June 19, 2017 I have let this disappear as I wasn't ready to sell the car, but as of the middle of July the car will be available and ready to go It will be a sad day to see this go, as I have owned the car for nearly 6 years from brand new and had an awesome 50k miles in it, but as some of you may know, I made some big changes in my life over the last 12 months. The next big change is moving out of the work I do completely and going travelling I will be starting in Japan (with no real plans to come back to the UK in the near future) and of course will be sending some cars (and parts if people want stuff) back, but in the meantime this needs to be sold. It is a brilliant example of a GTR, for the spec and setup is just about perfect! Not much has changed in the details above, mileage will be around 53k once I am back from Romania and spec of the car remains the same (the R888Rs and alcons are obviously on the car as well Pagid RS29s). The car goes in for a service next week Tuesday, then I go to Romania as the final drive in the car on 1 July for 10 days and once back the car will go in for a full detail with Christian - then she is ready to go!
