I really dislike how GT-Rs are continually impressing me

Makes me want one. Hoping for a re-designed model?

lol yea I did hate the looks but they've grown on me. It amazes me that there's such a big difference in performance through the years, the 13 with a y pipe ,intake and tune is as fast as the 09 with the alpha 6 package.

Yes..GTRs do continue to impress..
Let's just remember though that these are turbo'd cars and the efficency as compared to a Supercharger is higher.
Just look at what turbos do for 4 cyl Hondas/Subis/Mitshu...

I would like to start seeing some turbo LSXs or 4.6/5.0/5.8 turbo cars running the GTRs....just for comparison.

Let's keep the playing field equal...

Let's keep the playing field equal...
If we kept the "Playing Field Equal" they would both have Turbo Ls3 Engines, the Vette would magically grow 2 doors, n gain a super fast shifting auto trans
The GTR would get on a Jenny Craig plan n gain some power with the Bigger Ls3 engine. We then have to clone a Driver, u know, to keep things level
See where this is going?

Props to the Vette for doing work without a Super Fast tranny (yes I know it was Fi)
Props to the GTR for doing work without a Big V8 (yes I know it's Fi)

I don't care much about the turbo nonsense, etc.

I think what we're missing is a muscle car with AWD.
Set up a real launch control with AWD that we can clutch dump at 5k rpm... and that would end the game.

Look for the Red Lsx swapped Evo 8 (not sure if it's AWD though)
