Does anyone actually read Killemall's clusterfuck posts? I mean holy ****, how can you look at that abomination of a post, knowing it's going to be filled with all kinds of bench racing and massive NSX/Viper humping, and actually want to read that ****? Props to those of you that can, because that **** hurts my brain.

This is the vette vid in question..The title on youtube says stock Z06.....As well the second race against the black vette it appears to be a standard C6...While the red camera car most defiently sounds LS7 to me...

reguardless rather a stock LS7 or bolt on LS3...that GTR showed just how slow they are from the factory

There is no such thing as unbiased knowledge on LS1tech. Wesman is on of the most biased I believe. And you are Pretty biased as well when it comes to Vipers and NSX's. It's not wrong, just what an individual believes. Example below.

I'd say a viper couldn't accomplish a lot for 100k. When you put the price of the car plus the price of mods, You really can't do to much to the viper to make it much faster. In fact, how much does it take to make the $90k viper go into the low 7 second beast that makes more hp than the 1993-1998 supra? UGR says $95,000. So it takes almost $200,000 to make the Viper that fast huh? For that price it better wake you up with ********, and tell you your awesome everyday.
I know you told me you don't want to make your Viper Twin turbo'd, but you should at least know what it costs if your going to mention that the viper could be that 7 second, 1500 rwhp monster. It costs exactly a brand new viper.
The GTR while a great car, also costs money to make fast. Approximately $84k for a brand new GTR and to make the GTR go 9's? approximately 50k. So for Roughly $135k you could have a 9 second GTR that can be daily driven.
Awesome car performance wise.. But is it really the best bang for buck? I'd say a supra is.
Just making a point.

I said that and it was taken out of context. I said, If I were desperate for money and wanted to make a quick sale and dollar, I would be lucky to sell it for 45-50k. I could part it out and make more but I wouldn't want to. You just can't expect to make every cent you put into mods back. Just doesn't work that way. Besides, the auto market is like Real estate.. you have your ups and downs.
your forgetting somthing verty important....ne car runs low 13's out of the box..and one car runs high 10's out of the box
Just to get a stock supra to the 10.9 at 130 mph capabilities of the stock 2008 viper is no easy task.....And then you are only even...
Just my stock 400 rwhp 1999 viper gave 500 plus rwhp supras a good run..Imagine a stock 550 rwhp 2008 viper....
So while I get what yopu are saying..It cost big money to make anything run 7's....Assuming you can even achieave that before blowing up the car..how many problems have you ran into to still only run 12's in your supra.....I recently messed up a roller rocker just running mid 11's...
Now your talking about 7's????????
Just sayin...A stock car that can legitimatly run low 11's high 10's at 128-131 mph like a stock 2008 viper is worth it's weight in gold with a factory warranty....Thats what your paying for.

Love the name BTW....But FERRARI/LAMBO..Not even mentioned in the same sentance...The Viper/NSX are both bonafied bottome of the barrel exotics..Theve got a just barely pricey enough MSRP of 83K and 87K (starting from the early 2000's mind you) respectively for the base models...Theve got the look at me Im somthing special looks ...Theve got the 1 off thing going for them. One has the largest production engine available for sale and the other was desighned by a famous F1 driver from the ground up and one of the first all aluminum vehicles built...But more importantly they both are VERY rare and in 15-20 year production runs only 20-25K were produced for each car...
But the biggest factor is the production numbers This is were I dont think the GTR can make it into the bottom of the barrel exotic catergory. There seems to be a lot of them. Ive seen more GTR's in the past 18 months than I have Vipers in my life...
So basically before you can even compare to an exotic lambo.ferrari..You have to atleaste be in a lower level exotic...Cant say the GTR is one

I didn't forget that. It's actually 2 cars that run high 10's out of the box. but can I drive that high 10? no. Just like you can't drive yours to a 10.. but then again, you don't have an 08 viper.
I've had a few issues with the supra, but it was never on the engine. It was on all the other parts that I didn't beef up, such as my driveshaft and clutch.
As far as Warranty is concerned.. as soon as I started modding my cars.. I figure I am voiding my warranty. Even on my 07 Z. If something brakes, I'm willing to pay out of pocket for it. That's just the name of the game.

What I said before as far as the GTR, lambo, GT3 are PERFORMANCE WISE stock for stock are in the same class and have close numbers 1/4mile, track etc...I said nothing comparing of price, production and style.
To Wesman read the info on the vid before you post up again "those aren't stock cars"
STOCK GTR VS STOCK GT3...

The new 911 Turbo will annihilate a GTR in every respect.
0-60 in 2.7 seconds, they are insane.

Hell No!! Not that i don't like the guy, but I came here to discuss not to read a literary novel. If I wanted to read a novel, I'd not be looking for meaningful, long, and thought out posts on a bs section about street racing.
I was just going to post the same thing btw.

If the GTR is indeed that much quicker, it will show regardless of who's driving. especially at a smaller track.

Well the GT-R was .2s slower than the 911 GT2 AND the Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 around Top Gear's test track with The Stig (Ben Collins) driving, so I'd say that's evidence enough that it'd be quicker than the regular 911 Turbo around the same track. Which is definitely a smaller track. It was also .2s ahead of the F430 Scuderia, and 2.7s faster than the Z06. But I guess maybe Top Gear is in on the scandal too and planned the whole thing...

Just saying. In a straight line contest, it is a matter of horsepower. And compared to a new GT2 it will get walked. On the track, it might be a different story as you add new equations to the problem, turns, dips, straights. etc. But assuming since we are talking stock for stock.. and we don't have a track in hawaii.. on the streets, the GTR will get it's butt kicked.
But I doubt 3% of the people in the SR&K section have stock cars.

For about the same total price as a new ZR1, a GT-R can be modified by AMS to be quite a bit faster, while still retaining a powertrain warranty.
