With this aero setup, full interior,... Continue Reading →
Moving on to the bulk of my R's Day coverage, let's continue with a closer look at Charles Wong's Bayside Blue R34 and the rest of the "legacy" GTRs at the event. Unfortunately, I don't have much in terms of the R35s since they were stock or near stock and I want to keep the... Continue Reading →

One of my favorite, more simpler kits for the R35 GTR has got to be the Zele kit and this one here is a gorgeously executed example. This simple but amazing looking GTR is rocking a full Zele exterior as well as some iconic BBS LMs that literally compliments any car. Photos via Yahoo Auctions
Only with a R35 GTR would 600HP be considered mildly tuned...and that's exactly what we have here. Rocking a HKS GT600 kit, Yokohama Advan AVS Model F15 wheels, Top Secret carbon hood, and an Auto Select carbon lip spoiler, this thing is definitely a formidable street car and of course the occasional track duties.
