5 YEARS Owning My R35 Nissan GT-R! *UPDATE & COST*

- 👋 After 5 years owning my 2014 R35 Nissan GT-R, what do I think of it? How much has it cost to keep on the road and what is maintaining an R35 Nissan GTR like? To be honest the Nissan GTR has been the single best thing I have ever bought and it has been more fun then anything! I have had an absolute blast owing this car and it has opened so many doors in my life to other adventures! I used this car as a daily driver, I've been on the drag strip with it, the race track, countless mountain road trips and just so many fun drives! I even drove this 1,600 miles in a week to get married and this car was apart of our wedding. Owning the GTR has been very easy too. Very inexpensive to maintain and keep on the road. Insurance isn't expensive, about $800 a year right now with 3 vehicles on my policy. Full coverage isn't expensive if you pay in full and take the highest deductible. I've had a blast modifying the GTR to make 700 HP with a full bolt on a flex fuel setup. The car is fast as can be and I've been enjoying the car so much the last 2 years since I finished the upgrades. Future plans however do include selling the GTR. This car has done everything I ever could have asked it to do and I've make amazing memories with it. However I was to check off my next dream car and turn a Lamborghini into a reality. Took 10 years of dreaming and working towards the R35 GTR to become a reality, but I've also been dreaming and working towards a Lamborghini Gallardo for 18 years at this point. So I want to move on to my next goal! Work hard towards your goals and make you life happen! DOn't ever listen to anyone who says you can achieve your dreams. If you budget money well and live a simple life without all the little things, you can have the bigger things in life and truly enjoy things! Very excited for the future and all of this wouldn't have been possible if I never made my dreams comes true when I bought the GTR 5 years ago! Amazing car and it has been a great experience! In this video, I'm sharing my 5 year ownership experience of the Nissan GT-R. I'll cover the updates to the car, the changes made to it over the years and the costs associated with owning and driving this amazing car!

Brian I'm older than you ( by 28 years) and I'm obviously not your wonderful Dad but I've seen your moral character stay strong and courageous. I'm a happy subscriber for that five years and I'm very excited to tell people about the channel. Keep the faith, keep loving your Wife & family and friends- and keep being a automotive inspiration as long as you want.. Thank you!
I apprecieate that! Been a fun road with the car making dreams happen! Excited for the future!
Not everyone has that mentality or even understands how to make their dreams happen. It's great you are an example of this. Personally, I really like the GT3. Looking forward to more content.
Yeah I really want to show in my videos how anything is possible as a normal middle class person. People are under the assumption you just need a super high paying job and make a lot of money to buy nice things. But that couldn't be further from the truth. Just budgeting what you make is all thats needed to make a lot possible!
The Lambo will be fun, but a GT3 will be super cool too!
This car is deserve it to keep it for life. It’s not just a car .. it’s Nissan GTR 🔥🖤
lol yeah if I was made of money I would! But it has done everything I've needed it to do. Excited for the future!
@@BrosFOURRSpeed okay up to you
Congrats on 5 years! Thank you for the content. I watched alot of your videos researching the R35 before I purchased mine 2 years ago. Keep up the good work 👍
Oh nice! certainly a pretty amazing car!
I really appreciate your positive outlook you have had over the years of owning your R35 GTR. I hope I can share that love for my dream car someday like you did. Keep on dreaming!
Thanks! Just keep working towards your goals and you'll make it happen before you know it!
One of my dream cars. Inspiring vid bro 🔥
Been following you since I first started looking for a gtr in 2018 so glad I was along for the journey when I got mine in January 2019! Thanks for all the helpful tips and great videos!
Very nice! Glad you enjoyed all the GTR content!
Great video. Wow 5 years has went by so fast. I'm glad that you have had so much happiness surrounding this car. As always thanks for sharing!
It's been an awesome road with this car!
5 years!!! Wow!! I remember like it was yesterday you bought this car. I watched every single video you did on the car. An amazing build enjoyed every single minute. I'm so happy for you that you are doing very well brother. Keep up the great work. It's hard to see this car go, I hope it finds you again. Looking forward to plenty more content 😀
Thanks for the support! It's been such a blast over the years for sure! But excited to go to the new dream car!
Bought the car 3 years ago after watching your videos, went through somewhat a similar journey with the car as you did. Thanks for your sharing along the way bro. It was good reference for people like me
Oh sweet! Been an awesome 5 years! Car is for sale tho all back to stock. Ready for the next adventure!
pretty sad man, watched a lot of your old videos and always dreamt about owning one, made the move two years ago and purchased one thanks to some of your videos.
hopefully the next car will bring you and the viewers the same amount of joy
I remember like yesterday when you bought this and had it shipped to you and I've commented a million times on your videos about it. That being said, I know it may seem bittersweet but we all can't keep the same car forever so its always a good thing when folks can afford an upgrade. I would not be surprised to see you make the move to eventually get the R36!
Thanks for the support! Yeah it's been an absolute blast to own! Excited for the future!
I've owned my GTR for almost a year now. I love the GTR (2010). I'm doing my first mod, mid pipe thnx to you, followed by intake and cobb tuner, thnx to you again.
I'm doing a few things on it extra as well. I want to turn it into my own vision of what a 2010 GTR nismo would have been. Hopefully it turns out as I envision it.
Thnx for the GTR videos. You're doing amazing work.
Very cool man! It's a super fun car to own for sure and really comes alive with upgrades! Definitely do a TCM tune as well. I've heard on the first few year cars, that really helps out
Love the R35 Brian, hope you make more happy memories, and you’ve had a real great time
Great car for sure! Excited for what the future holds!
I am such a fan of sports cars and I always enjoy your Videos and your Brother's too.
Thanks! Cars are definitely fun!
So happy for you man. I can relate to this 100%. I got a stock, 2013 GTR Black Edition with only 14k miles 4 years ago. It is my dream car, and something I would have never thought I would own when I was growing up. As you say, it's an increasable car in so many ways. I am undecided on if/when I will sell it, but for now I'm still having an amazing time with it. Good luck on your future cars!!
Thanks! Yeah these are amazing! Not many cars truly compare to it. So it can't really be replaced for a direct competitor. But it'll be fun switching it up!
@@BrosFOURRSpeed the big difference for me is the insurance. Even though I have a clean record, multi car policy, same deductible as you etc. In CA it's over $3k a year
Once again knocking it out of the park with personal and gtr content. Youve been a big inspiration for me to work harder and cut my spending on dumb shit to eventually be able to afford a gtr
That's awesome! Glad you enjoyed the video!
@@BrosFOURRSpeed my go to channel for anything gtr, hope youre back in one soon. But until then enjoy the lambo;)
Thanks! I have a ton on this car for sure! We'll see what Nissan does next tho and if an R36 really does come
Thank You for nice videos with Your GT-R. My 3 years old 370Z was sold 2019 and at the same time brand new GT-R in Gun Metallic arrived into garage. I think he stays with me much longer. 🙂 Have fun with other real cars - they are dying here in Europe. 😞Greets from Poland!
@BrosFOURRSpeed I've just turned 42 and finally paid off my University debt, have a good job, so picked up my dream car on the weekend with my missus, a White 2008 Nissan R35 GTR with only 44000ks/27000miles on it! Interior is like new, but I'm going to go through the recommended things, Bell housing, Transmission components, intake etc and make this into my forever car, or as much as I can. Thanks for everything!
Oh sweet! Have fun with it! I had a blast owning this GTR while I did!
👏 nice review, How did I missed that video? not sure! I do agree, just wish GTR would create more back room for rear seats....my son almost hitting rear window with his head :( hes turning 12 this year! but still can fit behind me. They created an amazing car! I agree with everything you said! I can't believe people told you that you can afford to buy one but can't afford maintenance ! These cars are just like a regular car, as far oil chances. I think those people are the ones who never owned a GT-R :) and if they do they do all the stuff at the dealer!
Can't believe it's been 5 years since you've owned the GT-R. Glad I came upon your channel when making the decision to buy mine 3 years ago. Keep up the good content though!
Yeah it's been an awesome road with this amazing car! Thanks for viewing the content!
The GT-R is a Masterpiece ❤❤❤❤
It's an amazing car for sure!
While I feel like a GT3 would be the can't-go-wrong choice, I admit the Gallardo is sick. It has such a wow factor.
Yeah that's why that will be the next car after the Lambo. Same price, so I can check off the Lambo and then get into a more modern solid choice lol
Super excited for the Lambo tho!
Your videos are helpful!! Amazing job bro.
Thanks! Glad you like dit!
@@BrosFOURRSpeedWelcome bro.
I’m thinking of getting a 2009 I’m planning on only using it as my daily do you think I’d ever have transmission problems to the point where I’ll have to get it rebuild for 10k+
looks so great in grey, I got it in black. I got a 2009 in 2014,
Nice! These are good looking cars for sure!
Perfect scenario.. One owner car.. bought from the same dealership that sold it. No mysteries for sure !!
Exactly! I had no worries about buying this sight unseen. And havent had a single issue with the ownership. Certainly was a perfect car to find!
So happy for u bro
I appreciate that!
i love it 🖤.
Thanks!
I own a 2009 GTR super silver with 13k miles. Ive owned 3 GTRs since 2013 and every time Ive sold one, ive regretted it so much that I had to buy another one.. I see you doing that
lol I have bought several duplicates cars! I'll definitely have another one at some point. But this is a good opportunity to check off some childhood dream cars in the meantime
Legend.
GTR is beast for sure!
I remember that song from many years ago. "Go, Go, Godzilla."
lol cool!
If you sell it you will regret it... Please keep it! I love mine. I just wish I got it sooner. I am adding a backup camera as the body is an 09. It does make a little more power than yours so it's a bit louder but I changing to a LegalMax and a 3.5" mid pipe helped a lot. The Z will disappoint you. I have a 3.0T and they have problems.
Oh I love it! But I want to check off other dream cars! Plus I'd be looking to get a newer one now anyways. Worst case I have fun with a Lambo or GT3, and then get the 2020 50th Anniversary ;)
R35 is an amazing car tho!
Thanks for sharing this information. No don’t sell the car
Glad you liked the vid. But I'm not made of money, so it will have to go for the next dream car
@@BrosFOURRSpeedhow much are you selling it for?
I just put two and two together Brian’s and GTRs are meant to be as a former GTR R35 owner everything he said is right I regret selling it but I rushed into it
hah yeah thats part of the reason why I bought the GTR and always liked them. But I can always get another one down the road after I check off some other dream cars
This year will be a bad time to sell but a better time to buy a car, but I hope you get what you want from selling it!
We'll see. GTR prices have been staying strong still
Very cool story!
What’s your quickest 1/4 pass?
I’ve never done 1/4 mile where they timed it. But I’ve done 1/8th and got under 7 seconds. And that’s with spinning a lot since it was 40 degrees out
@@BrosFOURRSpeed gotcha; good approximation of 1/4 ET from an 1/8 run is to multiply the 1/8 ET by 1.535. Helps since local 1/4 tracks aren’t everywhere
pick up a Dragy too; they’re extremely accurate and would be good to have for the Z build to show performance improvements as you mod it. 60-130 time is pretty much the good standard nowadays since it removes traction issues from a launch or lower mph roll
What was the original hp and torque before modifications?
Stock the engine makes 545hp and 463 tq
Such nice car! 😎
Thanks! Amazing car for sure!
@@BrosFOURRSpeed R36 is most likely to come hybrid performance like the new C63S E
@@makatronI’d love to see a hybrid! like the NSX and Eray C8. Twin Turbo V6 hybrid would be super cool!
@@BrosFOURRSpeed the corvette is kinda gimmicky but is a push in the right direction. If it can't push enough hp for at least a 15 second sprint isn't worth it.
@@makatron I haven’t looked much into how that performs. But will be cool too see what it can do. The hybrid stuff is a cool way to ad to the cars for sure!
hey mate do the r35 have trans issues?
Honestly no. The 2009 and 2010 cars need a transmission tune to be really good. Stock tune on them makes those not the best. But 2014+ they are solid. Never had an issue with mine even with 49k miles. It’s just the first few years that don’t have the best software
You got it Babe!
Hey thanks! ;)
You’re the perfect guy to ask…would you pay for a nismo gtr for what it is and all it’s glory?! It’s supposed to represent the very best in factory fine tuning by Nissan. Or would you buy a standard gtr and use that money for upgrades? I ask because of your history and experience you’ve so wonderfully given us! Thank you
Personally I wouldnt. Each trip level is just more track focused then the next. If you're genuinely tracking the car, the Nismo will be awesome. But 99% of people who buy it are just being to have the extra 'cool' factor on the street. After I bought mine I drove a Black Edition. Honestly it was too rough on the roads. I liked how the Premium in comfort mode was very soft for the road. And then my car in Race mode was so much tighter, it was even too rough for most roads. The Black Edition couldnt tone down enough to be as comfortable. The Nismo is probably even more hard core. It's cool, but your just paying for all the carbon fiber cosmetics. Cool car tho and if you can afford it, might as well get one if you don't mind a rougher ride on the street
@@BrosFOURRSpeed omg good point! I wasnt even considering how my wife would feel she would totally hate the rough ride LOL you’re the man thank you!
@@Mfam777 Yeah I’ve realized cars of this level, each trim level higher is just more track focused. If your literally daily driving it most of the time, it’s just not worth it. The Premium is comfortable daily but still cranks up to be a tight track car to where I can’t even drive to its limits since it’s so good 😅
If you part out, i'd be interested in the Cobb Access Port for my 2012.
Yeah we'll see which rout works best for the car. The AP I have also does the transmission. Which has been super beneficial
@@BrosFOURRSpeed Yep... I have a "really" old AP. Not reliable enough to use anymore and COBB won't upgrade me. Supposedly CICIO has the tuning for the TCM down pat, allowing it to upshift effortly in whatever gear makes sense. Such a huge difference that would be!! Let me know!!
@@The.Garage.Studiooh wow! And I’d leave my maps on it too just in case they could work for your year. So we’ll see
@@BrosFOURRSpeed Thanks Brian!! Yeah.. mine's still stock. So got lots of work to do. I've got over 120K on it as well. But my transmission is still strong, as well as my Bell Housing. So time to give it a little more juice!!
@@The.Garage.Studiooh very nice!
Nice vehicle and back in the late 80s and early 90s NISSAN was the top Japanese automaker over Honda, Toyota. NISSAN do have quality vehicles if you maintain it properly........
Well The 1998 Supra may have something to say about that..
Yeah Nissan had some cool sportscar over the decades!
@@oreally8605 lol cant not love the MK4!

What kind of wheels is that?
Vossen HF5. Love them!
Back on May 2020 I was down to buy a 2017 GTR or a 2019 C7 Z06 M7, the GTR was $12K more expensive so I went for the Z06, now my goal is to eventually get one.
CS Here Again So Back In February Of 2018 At Champion Car Company That You Traded It With The 370Z NISMO Again Also Its Been 5 Years Ago That The Fastest Car I Never Been In It Before So I Lived In CA Its On Escondido Blvd Also I Dont Live In NC Also I Really Love Modified With A New R35 Navigation For In These Years With The T Rex Tech Also With The Back Up Camera Also A Wheels For VOSSEN Also Smokin Sequential Lights For The R35 GT-R Also Back These Old Days That You Never Used All Of Those Also Send The Telegram Linked For The Hoodie and T Shirts Merch Dropped For 18 More Days For My Birthday Next Month In February Turning The Age Of 20 Years Old Right After The Super Bowl Also For Me Very Excited For The Hoodie and T Shirts Merch For My Present Will Be So Take Care Also Last Week I Saw A Final Current Gen For 2023 A Nissan GT-R In The Japanese Market Again So Hopefully To Get A New R36 GT-R For 2026 Or 2027 Also Back In Fall Of 2007 At The Tokyo Motor Show For The R35 GT-R As A US Of 2008 and 2009 MY So Make All The New Cars For Modified New Again.
What about brake pads and rotors are they stock and cost of it?
I have the stock rotors and PosiQuite pads. Costs $110 for all 4! And the don't squeal like stock did
How much are you planning to sell for?
Based on current market of 2014/2015s with same mileage. Stock I'd sell for around $82k. With all the mods $90k
If that GTR were a manual I'd have offered to buy it from ya.
Be crazy to drive one of these in a manual!
Dang... I pay 1800+ for insurance for my shitty 2011 suv in Wisconsin lol 😆
Jeez thats crazy! I know it changes a lot state to state
Why not keep it for about another year and then sell it to import a R34 and do that up? That would be awesome!!
I really don't have much interest in owning an R34. Would be cool! But honestly they are pretty slow compared to this R35. Would cost $100k to buy and still need to put a solid $35k in upgrades to make it crazy fast. I'd rather buy a Lambo or GT3 and have a Z or Supra as my tuner car. Easy to get parts, faster then an R34 stock to stock, and just as much power potential
Price? Cash deal.. I am in NC

$88,999 making 700 HP. Stock ones are around $83k. I have all the stock parts too

You still selling it ?
Yup! Need to free up the funds and space for the next dream car!
@@BrosFOURRSpeed What state are you in?
@@olivierYF21 North Carolina. Can easy ship the car to next owner. I bought this sight un seen and had it shipped
@@BrosFOURRSpeed im down in Florida so not too far . Ill get back to you.
@@olivierYF21 cool deal man! Can always email us or message on IG too 😎
Better sell it quickly! Car prices are crashing and no one will buy this for the price you want when new and almost new ones aren’t going above sticker
Lol I sold this car like 6 months ago! Also a new GTR is $30K more than what I sold mine for, used aren’t close to the new prices.
@@BrosFOURRSpeedgood timing on your side! Feel bad for the person who bought but that’s their fault for overpaying
@@staywoke2198 I wouldn’t say they overpaid, had I sold last year, it would have been higher.
Dream car since I was 19 in 2009, worked nonstop for one, nights, weekends. Age 32 now, and its funny the way mindset changes. It is still my dream car and I could buy one in cash, however my priorities are having dividends from stocks/rents from rental properties pay for this car. I will get there within the next 3 years.
Also, Im in wilmington.. What would you sell this for haha
That's pretty cool! Always good to have a goal! And sometimes even when you can get it, it's not the best time. I could have bought a Lambo a few years ago when I bought my Supra. Would have been the same price as selling the GTR for it and not adding the Supra. But it just waste the right time
