In the quest to build the best Nissan GT-R on the planet, Japanese aftermarket tuning company TRUST / GReddy seem to have created their own holy grail – the GReddy 35RX GT-R, an extremely modified Nissan R35 GT-R. In short, Godzilla on steroids.
Where us mere mortals form beads of sweat on our foreheads going at 250kph along SCTEX, driving with full concentration knowing that one sudden twitch of the steering wheel could lead to disaster, for Japanese professional driver Tarzan Yamada, taking the GReddy 35RX GT-R to speeds of up to 333kph along Fuji Speedway is just another day at work.
Wait… 333kph!? Let me put some perspective into this. Yes, Fuji Speedway is known to have one of the longest straights amongst the other motorsports tracks, at 1.5km in length. But the top speed achieved by F1 cars in the last Japanese GP held at Fuji Speedway in 2008 was 310kph! Those are friggin’ Formula 1 cars! So for a mere Nissan GT-R to beat that, well, the folks at GReddy get some serious bragging rights.
Here’s what they did to achieve that: First, the 3.8L VR38DETT engine had been stroked to 4.3L. Second, they replaced the stock twin turbos with TD06-20G units. Third, they replaced the intake manifold and exhaust with their own GReddy versions. Next, they replaced the stock intercooler with a Type-29 unit, and the stock oil cooler and pan with DCT units. Total power is now a whopping 1250hp! Lastly, to keep the car from taking off while going at speeds beyond what it was designed to go, a BenSopra wide-body aero kit was installed. The exterior was then topped off with graphics and livery from Art Factory for more eye-popping visual appeal.
I’m sure this car would inspire Nissan GT-R fans and tuners in the Philippines to take their cars to the next level in terms of looks and performance. Who could resist seeing the mighty Nissan GT-R beat the pants off of even the most expensive exotics in the country?
Check out the video below showing Tarzan Yamada taking the GReddy 35RX GT-R to Fuji Speedway for a high speed test, cracking 333kph! Must see! Check it out…
Update: In this post, we discussed how GReddy managed to tweak 1250hp out of the engine. Next, we show you the science behind the Ben Sopra body kit that allowed it to crack 333kph! Check it out!
