Default Heh, showed the new Nissan GTR some tail lights.

Ran into a brand new GTR on the road Saturday morning on my way to the track. Ran him twice from about 80ish, even in fourth gear, it was enough to walk away pretty easily.

Moved out like a 118ish mph car.

I can't wait til I get my chance to race one. I'm almost certain a Stock C5Z will be able to hang with if not walk a GTR.

I think a stock C5 Z would have a really tough time getting away from one in a straight line. The C6Z shouldnt have a problem at all.

What more do you want to know? We ran, I pulled, end of story?

Because those of us that actually took the time to read thru your thread would like to know A: a rwhp figure of your car OR B: what is done to your car so we can deduce a horsepower figure on our own... Something to actually relate to would be beneficial.



By the way nice 'kill'

You really spanked that Lambo. If you guys look on youtube you can see what a stock C6Z will do to a stock GTR. The GTR hangs with it til around 60-70 from a stop and gets walked hard over 100mph.

Nice kill. I wouldn't mind you letting us know what the basic setup is on your car.

Sorry, I thought I had it listed in the sig, I forgot.

Built motor, D1SC, heads/cam, exhaust, fuel system, etc etc. It put down about 600rwhp in the vid with the lambo. Probably 50-60rwhp more when I ran the skyline.

OK, so according to the quick research I just did, the GTR should move out pretty well - but DAYYUM it's ugly... Looks kinda like an Audi from the front, & like a Cobalt from the rear...

Good kill though.

Any of us with a well modded LS1/LS2/LS3/LS7 should not have any problems with them at all. When I was 600rwhp in my GTO I walked away from a 2008 Z06 so it is good to know I will not have problem with the new KING OF THE JAPS lmao. No numbers with my new setup as I am about to begin to break in a new clutch. I am looking at turning the PSI up to get 650rwhp on a MustangDynometer/ 700 Dyno jet. I will be on borrowed time but I just need it to hold up for 6 mo or so.
