Saturday, December 12th, 2009“The name: E ‘plural of me. I thought’ Mine” is better than to answer, “Niikura.” I designed the logo. I like simple and cool designs. I like simple cool designs, so my car is not always dressed up. You may or may not know the name Niikura Michizo, but certainly knows the name of Mino.

Having established Bridgestone mine. Which approach are you going? Simple is best. A stand-balanced car that remains, and can turn quickly. Another thing I like doing things that my competitors and can not do. I like things fast. I like to build [my products and machinery] quickly and on time. I hate to be slower than anyone else. Tuning has no rules, such as motor-sport, but adorned my thing is to be faster than the cars that are full like racing cars. The parties which are to be developed for my clients, but also the function and good for the car. I will hold my hand tuning realistically attainable for consumers. It is easy to build a large displacement engine, but how many people do this? What it takes to keep it simple. I learned a lot during my younger years. I was involved with motorsport and has worked with them when I was younger. I wanted to learn the whole experience was a learning process. The team has to win. I wanted to absorb what my disposal of motor racing. And I did what I experienced in this experience in my development and products. From the beginning of the R34 I R32 prety much went to every race of the series Super Taikyu. You must be familiar with the series, but also the development of courses and products. Like the R & D to develop your products? To develop my part, I would actually go out and test my products. I do a lot of private tenstive on the test track. Testing, R & D, do not go at full throttle for a race distance. That is not what is on R & D effort What I’ve needed it, not the speed or the speed or time. It is actually handling, or the joy of driving. It’s about the feeling of comfort during the journey to do what the driver feels. You feel good, I am encouraged about the vehicle. This is much more than just speed or power. Tell us the GT-R heritage, and why you continually skyline. Time is still a very good car and knew the melody. And that’s what I was dressed. I was attracted by the potential of the GT-R, and because it was difficult to adjust. For the United States, I’m really excited about the parts for the Z-version and the new 2008 Nissan GT-R. I want to open a store in Los Angeles and I have U.S. headquarters. Next year. What are your thoughts on the new VQ38 compared to older RB26? They are completely different engines, of course, but both machines GT-R. They are great engines. Although the new engine is not a RB, I can tune it. I’m not worried. How characterisics the machine, I do not think it’s the kind of car they want to maximize their power. The function of the new GT-R will increase the engine’s performance, but increase in total factor productivity of the car a little “more. With the VQ a development of the technology with a block of aluminum, compact V-engine. I not worry about the engine, because it was developed by one of the best engineers from Nissan. I am sure that a good engine is started. And what about the old GT-R against the new? In Japan, a lot of people say that the R33 is not just a successor to the first generation of the GT-R is not an improvement, is not the R34 and R33. Neither is the R35 to R34. All have their own Characterisitics. Some good and bad. Some people, like, etc. R32 better so four of them, all different characters possible. What is your design philosophy and how this factor in the search for the new GT-R? I think the entire concept and character deisgn is similar to the R32 and R33. The R34 is looking for a sports car. And this is your first impression. The R32 and R33 GT-R and a new design is more or less grows on you. The GT-R and Ferrari are two different cars. The GT-R fans would not accept the GT-R like Ferrari and neither are the designers trying to imitate Ferrari think, contrary to what some might. The debut of the R32 is very similar to the current vehicle position. But even today, the Skyline R32 is the most popular of all time. Anyone who sees the purchase of the new GT-R and what the competitors are not in Japan and Europe? I do not think at this point, there are competitors for the GT-R in Japan. If it is not limited to Japanese cars, it would be Porsche and BMW. I believe that the buyer would probably increase a little “in terms of age, higher than before. Moving on a slightly different topic, have you been in almost every version of Sony’sGran tourism. Mine is in the next GT? 350Z and GT-R is the new Gran Turismo. When I consider the new GT-R, I assume that is in play, too. I am interested in the game forwader commit again. I work closely with Yamauchi-san, I know him very well and ensure my wish that the vehicles should be in the game. The study of the production of the game is very intense, very accurate. You use a lot of laser scanning equipment to scan the entire machine. I carry the sound of the machine and all the other parameters. When should we expect the next mine Nissan GT-R? And what color is it? I hope to publish the new GT-R later this year. It is white, of course. Get the whole story with dinghy and car racing movies Niikura Michizo interview.
