Midori Seibi Center – R35 Parts Development

June 10th, 2008

Midori with the assistance of Michael Krumm (Nismo #22 Motul Autech GT500 GT-R driver) have been developing parts for the Nissan R35 GT-R for release shortly. On the cards is a suspension kit using Aragosta dampers as well as another kit using Force dampers sourced from the UK. The Force kit is a 3-way adjustable (bound, rebound and height) coilover kit and has been tested good for a 1’54″ lap around Fuji SpeedWay (driver Yasushi Kikuti) on a fairly bad day weather wise.

Midori also have an ECU modification planned including raising the rev limit, removing the speed limiter and increasing boost. Fuel and ignition maps are also modified to increase response. Interesting that Midori also note that their ECU modification will remote any dash warning lights such as the tire or bonnet warning lights as some GT-R owners (especially overseas) have had trouble with. They’re asking 135,000 yen for the ECU upgrade or 231,000 yen for a race spec tune on their Dynapack dyno.

To come soon are Alcon brakes, and titanium mufflers.

    I guess you do have my attention, and I am glad that you hate the new GT-R because it is enjoyable to think that you will be driving in whatever shitty car that you have; while GT-R owners are driving in their beasts. And why are you a member of this blog anyways? Oh and it’s suppose to be “your” not “you’re”…

    Thanks for your comment, sqe. I’m only a college student so I wouldn’t have the money to purchase the R35 =(, but I really like the GT-Rs and the new Beast. Hopefully in the future I will be able to own one… fingers crossed, haha.

    I wonder what they teach the kids in school nowadays, probably something like, “Go hate on the thing that probably you can never afford”? or else, where do all these childish haters come from?

    Anyway, white GT-R is sex!!

    ROFL you all funny :D

    First of all sq you’re first reply made no sense what so ever. Second of all I’m pretty sure I drive a badass car that most of you cant have and third of all I must hate one something before I find reasons to love it so I’m here to find reasons. In fact the car I own right now is the car I hated at first but it won my heart and it proved me wrong. I’m not just going to jump in in delusional manufacture claims I’d like to do things differently unlike you followers :)
