ctjet Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 240Z pilot October 9th, 2006 10:05 PM Link I guarantee this car will be significantly HEAVIER than the “7 litre us tank” referred to! Z06 Corvette weighs in at 3150 lb., this will be at least 3400. I’d bet money it will also be SLOWER around any race track. To tell the truth, I’d rather see a new Silvia (which we haven’t had in the U.S. since ‘98)! This thing is a bit “much of muchness” imho. Less is more! idiots...

scathing Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 idiots... Its not that much of a stretch of the imagination. The current Z06 runs a 7:43 around the Nurburgring Nordschleife. That's significantly faster than a 996 Turbo, a 415hp / 3800lb AWD car with a purpose-built chassis and a lot of money thrown into performance R&D. That said, I don't think Nissan will be happy with the GT-R until it holds the lap record for a "reasonable" production car (I don't count the Radical SR8 as "reasonable", even though technically it is a production car). And the 996 is a generation old, now, but I don't have the times for the 997 Turbo. It should have cracked the 40's by now, since the old 996 Turbo / light tune R34 ran a 7:51 or so. I think the next GT-R will be quicker than the Z06 on the track, but given the sheer pace of the Z06 its not going to be your typical "AWD turbo terror vs Yank Tank" battle, especially in the hands of drivers who know how to make a car go around a track fast.

SS8_Gohan Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 people still thinking it's a Skyline after it's been explained it's NOT a million times, others thinking there is going to be a V8 for the US market only? no... they're idiots Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/138048-spy-shots-finally/#findComment-2571487 Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangerous_daveo Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 The real thing looks the goods thats for sure. The one problem I can see with this is, nissan isnt seen as a premium brand, therefore the people with the money are going to be hard pressed to justify spending the dollars to buy it, as it doesnt have the 'badge'. Because really a clubman will go around a track as quick as a porka at a fraction of the cost, and a VK with a worked V8 in it will go in a straight line faster at a fraction of the cost. But the people with the money wouldnt do that as they dont have the badge. Ones a mechano set the other is well a commodoore. But yeah, good luck to it. Its definately got all the good gear.

Rezz Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 I love it how people are still quoting the info I posted from back in 2004: http://www.leftlanenews.com/2006/10/09/spi...08-nissan-gt-r/ Rumours have indicated the car will feature a 3.2 liter twin turbo V6 engine with 480hp.

Which lets face it, isnt most americans who think in 1/4mile and not much else, guess theres the handful of people outside of NASCAR that actually know how too turn right as well as left.
