You know, I don’t think the r35 engine is front mid mounted. Got curious and looked at a couple pics of the drivetrain sans body and the engine is sitting in what looks like smack dab over the center of the front axle. FM by definition is supposed to be the engine behind the front axle but still in front of the driver correct?
The rear transaxle makes even more sense since the weight over the back end helps negate the importance of FM set up for the engine. Although, when pushed hard the gtr does have some noticeable understeer.
