Ever since we received our SP35 back from Greddy we never really got to see the actual turbos that are nestled away next to the flywheel housing. Here is a random yet exclusive look at the driver side turbo, as well as the wastegate.
During the Kansai transmission cooler install, we had to drop the midpipe and the downpipe in order to customize the supplied hardlines. This gave us an opportunity to snap a shot of the rarely visible Greddy TD06H turbo. So enjoy!
Just received Kansai’s transmission cooler here at SP Engineering. Below are some of the images we’ve taken. I must say this is one of the best engineered kit I have seen.
Kansai’s cooler mounts on the front drivers side of the bumper which also includes an air duct for maximum cooling power. Please note this upgrade is engineered to be used with your factory transmission cooler (coolant)
Note: the hardlines included in this kit were not made for the US Spec GTR. They were designed for RHD usage, and therefore need to be modded in order to fit. Reason being; the steering column from our US Spec GTR is blocking the way of the hardline that is trying to get to the transmission. Our tech Jason Reinholdt used the hardlines that were included, and customized them to fit perfectly.
An update on our R35 GTR. We have completed tuning our GTR with Haltech’s new firmware update using Q16 fuel. Boost level at 1.6 bar, we’ve achieved 778 whp.
We would like to thank the guys from Haltech (Eric, Nathan, and Jonathan) for all their support.

SP35 breaks record again! from SP Engineering on Vimeo.
The week before our GTR Meet we were slammed with more than a handful of R35’s that needed work done. We were also graced with 3 black devils beautiful in their own unique way. Here is a small photoshoot we did of them. Thanks to Ray and David for allowing us the shoot!!
SP has been known to crank out some of the fastest cars on the track as well as in the streets. The SP35 proves that we will not settle for anything less.
Once news hit the US that the Nissan GTR was going to be released on this side of the Pacific, word spread like wildfire, and immediately we new we had to capitalize on this momentous occasion. It has been 1 year since its launch onto US soil, and the R35 is still being declared as one of the fastest production cars ever built; winning several awards.
Throughout the past year we have had several R35 owners come to us to upgrade their GTRs. Why? Well because they know the quality of our work, the knowledge that our techs possess on the GTR alone, and the proof that we exhibit through our very own cars.
The SP35 is a force to be reckoned with. Equipped with the finest upgrades. Appearing exquisite, yet aggressive. And having the honor of being the very first in the US to have the Greddy TD06H Twin Turbo 20G Kit installed, which helped us put down 707awhp on our 4wd Mustang Dyno with stock internals.
The white pearl paint is tastefully accentuated by the subtle carbon fiber additions provided by Titek USA. A front lip, side skirts, rear exhaust shrouds, rear trunk spoiler, antenna cover, fender grill inserts, hood vents, and grill give that extra elegance to the appearance. A set of HKS Hipermax III coilovers were installed not only for appearance, but for functionality as well. The lower center of gravity, stiffer spring rates, and adjustable dampening helps the GTR’s stability and traction when needed. Staggered 20 inch gunmetal BBS LM wheels also aid in traction control, and are probably one of the best looking wheels to ever grace the R35.
The cabin was left relatively stock, except for a pair of Bride Low Max Gias (Gai-uhs), a few HKS electronics including an EVC, and AFK unit hidden in the center console, and some carbon fiber trimmings.
The engine bay is really where the fun is at! The stock VR38DETT boasts the aggressive Greddy TD06H 20G twin turbo kit. These turbines are approx 2 inches bigger than the factory turbos, which help house more spool. A Greddy intercooler w/ piping kit, 2x Type R wastegate, and 2x BOV complete the Greddy setup. All exhausts are forced through a Titek Titanium RACE midpipe, and out via a Titek Titanium RACE exhaust system. The pairing of the Greddy twins and the Titek piping sounds unlike anything you’ve ever heard. The orchestrated sound of the turbos spooling, and the throaty RACE exhaust will definitely have you in an euphoric state of mind.
We would like to give special thanks to Greddy for working closely with us and their support through this project.

Nissan Japan offers OEM LED running lamps for the R35 GTR which is designed to integrate with your factory front bumper without any major modifications. All hardware is plug and play which does not require any cutting or splicing into your vehicle.
Our buddy Sean recently dropped by with his Super Silver R35 to get a Titek Titan Exhaust and Titek SUS Midpipe installed. We caught a glimpse of the Nissan OEM running lamps, and decided to get our hands on some. Sean’s GTR features a Stillen front lip and side skirts, and is dropped on Eibach springs. A set of BBS LM wheels complete his clean and sleek setup.

Recently we received the new carbon cooling plate for the R35 GTR designed by Titek USA, and this thing looks awesome! We were able to slap it onto our very own SP35 to show you the fitment, as well as how the glossy look compliments the entire engine bay!
Our Titek R35 GTR products never seem to stay in stock long enough to admire them, so we decided to indulge in a kodak moment.
Like previously noted, the Titek RACE exhaust system includes the full titanium exhaust, center pipe, and vented tips. Here’s an idea of how it would look on YOUR GTR!
New from Titek USA is the Nissan GTR RACE exhaust…smaller resonator…bigger power!! (more…)
