These full black lights hide a really interesting concept that were unfortunately later removed from the production version. From head-on, the square jawed nose featured a large front grill that spanned from the bottom of the bonnet to the splitter, something only Audi’s at the time were doing Couple this with its distinctive headlights that follow from the top of the aggressively sculptured wings and down to meet the grill at front splitter level. To see the new GT-R concept would have felt like looking at an alien spaceship from Star Trek, with its very forward-thinking design features. It was right in the midst of peak R34 GT-R fever, so rocking the boat like this was unprecedented and brave. But the wattage ratings are meaningless.The styling made just as many waves, with an overall form that was brutal, challenging and futuristic, as did the timing of the debut - the 21st Century GT-R Concept was unleashed at the 2001 Tokyo Motorshow, an entire six years before the car hit showrooms. The explanation of why is too long to type here, so you could either just trust me, or believe unqualified marketing bunk. You'd be better off selling the GTR and putting that money towards a higher quality board.Ĥ) Motor wattages are essentially useless marketing numbers. The cheapest VESC based ESC is $300+, and motors are $100 USD a piece, more or less. A 12s8p is likely to cost over $1,000 USD if you get one made by someone worth their salt. You can check my post history to see a build example I did recently.ģ) The GTR isn't worth working on or modding. Certainly not for a larger battery.Ģ) While there is an aftermarket enclosure that can be made to fit the GTR deck, it's a single stack depth, and will fit at most a 12s4p pack. It's designed around the electronics inside of it, and not much else. Moderators are not, and will not be, associated with any esk8 companies or vendors, and will not accept any kinds or gifts or money from these entities for favorable treatment.ġ) There isn't space for a proper sized VESC based controller in that enclosure.
