What? No COBB Tuning R35?!?! They were one of the first people in the US to do anything major to the GTR. Such a shame that they were left out of it.
I don't think it's fair comparing the Nismo Super GT GT-R with the others as it's on a different league altogether. So for me, for a GT-R modified from a stock one that you can get from the factory, the Trust R35RX gets it. The car has been extremely modified, not just in the engine bay, which can already embarrass a Bugatti Veyron with 1,250hp, but the body kit is something to behold. It was made that way for a reason, and I've broken the science beind the aerodynamics of the body kit which allowed it to crack 333kph on Fuji Speedway: http://custompinoyrides.com/2012/01/ben-sopra-nissan-r35-gt-r-widebody-aero-kit-the-science-behind-the-aerodynamics/
mines gtr?
I'm missing Switzer Performance here...!
Bensopra > all
Mine's? Top Secret? MCR?
WTF no Top Secret GTR
Where is the Stillen GtR??
Nismo Super GT GTR. C'mon, it has won numerous times in the Super GT series. Plus, most these are f**king show queens.
I don't feel like the SuperGT R35 should be included. It isn't even the same car, and the R34 SuperGT wasn't included, either. Also, I would have voted for the GT3 GT-R if it had been included.
need the Switzer P800... the original veyron killer
The SGT R35 of course !
Amuse GT-R, because Tanabe-san would have liked it so
Big problems with the selection of your cars. U left many out and SVM isnt even done yet wtf? Seriously? Then u leave out many influential r35s and include many that are not. Speedhunters not what it used to be.
AMS 'cause it's crazy stupid fast!!!
Top Secret GT-R!
Dick and balls, that wing gets me everytime
Hey, where's my car, as featured in evo magazine, Godzilla 2?
the standard model is my personal favorite. the fact you can go as fast as cars more than 3 times as expensive in comfort and be more reliable than most cars. also having legendary status before release
trust r35rx. i just love a good flipnose
Where's the SUMO GT-R ??
FUCK R35S!
How can the AMS Alpha 12 GTR not be on this list????
what about the SPI GTR ?
Dude, i can't choose between them... x(
Missing the COBB GTR and the AMS GTR
Where is Top Secret R35 ?
No Nissan GT-R NISMO GT3?
Trust R35!!!
What about the Street Special Garage Yawata R35? That's my favorite by far.
what no JUN R1 - Europes 1st 1000BHP R35 GTR..
Obviously Nismo Super GT.
Obviously Nismo Super GT.
What about Jotech's white GTR?
Proves you can make insane power without 1,000,000 stickers and vinyls all over your car.
Where is the Switzer love? They are easily pioneers in the R35 platform!
My favorite R35 is the one I backed a fifteen-passenger van full of rehab students into. The dude should have freaked and punched me in my very deserving face, but upon seeing no discernible damage to the front bumper, he was very chill about the whole thing. Props to him for being cool, though, I think my students would have likely destroyed him if he touched me.
all these were nice.. but that Severn Valley GT-R looked like something out of a new Fast and Furious with those wheels... nasty. Nismo Super GT GT-R all the way!!!!

Eh, I love my Super GT
Bensopra rear wing had kill'd everyone else kit
Why no Mine's R35 GTR
Actually the Cannonball GTR was the first to do something big with a GTR, First sanctioned win in an R35 and first R35 to be on a Haltech. One Lap of America Overall Champions in 2009 and the Aeromotions wing on the Cobb and a lot of the other timeattack GTRs got it's start on the Cannonball/GoTurnStop/42Autosports one.
Missing Top Secret's R35...
Vote goes to Trust!
AGAIN..NO Calsonic? or Sumopower?
GT Auto Garage GTR
YOU LEFT OUT ALL THE GTR's THAT HAVE DONE SOMETHING AND PUT IN ALL THE ONES SLATED TO DO SOMETHING LOL
The BenSopra GTR gives me a chubby
Great list. I would have liked to seen Sumo Power make the list. Also isn't the trust r35 and bensopra the same basically?
Switzer R1K GTR - First to hit 1000AWHP!
WHERE THE FUCK IS SWITZER
these legends lists have all been poorly formulated. you have posted cars with little to no track time leaving out major performers. Why did you include the AMS Alpha 9 instead of the Alpha 12?! But then include Super GT and GT1 cars among tuner builds?! WTF ^_^
A bunch of R35 GT-R's here that have done nothing. I see 5 or 6 that have nothing do their name. Where are the 1300+ whp cars? 8 second R35? Targa cars? Cobb R35? Seriously a few of the cars might be something in a few years, but in no way are they legends today.
Should have been the Sumo Power GTRs. We got to drive em at the top Shift 2. They impressed the world in their debut season. Loved that car RIP
sumopower
I think the only left hand drive GTR here is the AMS!
How can Cyber GTR be included in the list when it didn't even prove its worth on the time attack scene??
FIA GT1 GTR
After all, it impressed the world on its first season (And beat it on the 2nd season). Plus the V8 in that thing is... Evil. Like, full blown I can kill you just like that evil.
