Another video to enjoy.

http://www.evo.co.uk/videos/planetevovideo...orsche_gt3.html

Apparently, in the next issue of EVO magazine (out on march 5th) they test the GT-R against the Z06 on the drag strip, the GT-R against the GT3 on the track (video clip) and the GT-R against the R8 on the road.

Can't wait to grab that Mag!

looked like a second faster even with the little screw up at the one of the corners. so I'd say 1.5-2 seconds quicker overall.

Results of the tests are:

0-100-0

Z06 14.0

GTR 13.9

Bedford west circuit

GT3 1:22.6

GTR 1:21.7

Lap times from Bedford west circuit to provide a comparison:

Porsche Carrera GT 1.19.7

Maclaren F1 1:21.2

Enzo 1.21.3

superleggera 1:21.8

599 GTB 1:23.1

997 turbo 1:23.55

996 GT3 RS 1:24.2

F430 1:24.2

E92 M3 1:26.6

Looks like the 'yanks' managed to import two JDM spec RHD GTR's through Jspecconnect.com. They say the paid $4k over sticker and sold one to some 'yank' in new york for $120k or so. The other is going to have a cameo in f2f4 and is sitting in costa mesa, cali.

Hopefully they can take it to the tracks so the GTR can "Bless" the nonbelievers.

You folks are too bias. The Z06 was faster.

The Z06 did 0-100 in 8.5 seconds and the GTR did it in 8.9.

The GTR did better 0-100-0, but they had a better reaction time in the GTR (time between WOT and hitting brake pedal).

GT-R: 0-100 = 8.9, 100-0 = 4.3, accel to brake reaction time = 0.6

Z06: 0-100 = 8.5, 100-0 = 4.5, accel to brake reaction time = 1.0

Thus, if you subtract the difference in reaction times, the Z06 was not only faster 0-100, but it's faster 0-100-0 also!

The Z06's lead would've been even larger had they kept going (the article mentioned that the Z06 was accelerating harder past 100mph....this also hurt its braking time).

The Z06 is even more impressive because it has inferior tires and hit the market a full THREE years before the GTR.

    • The spray cans were in the "Kiln" room whilst I was preping the parts,  so probably around 2 hours to get them warmed up, the kiln room has 3 small ovens running at 100°c, 3 medium sized ovens running 100°c, and the large one I used running at 80°c, the room itself was about 28°c, I also spent a bit of time taping up the parts in the room as well, and by the time I was done I would assume that the parts were around that 28°c As for power, I expect a couple of Killerwasps up high would be achievable with the current mods, I'm still running the MZR 2.0 intake and throttle body, and there is a slight mismatch with the 2.0 intake (smaller) and 2.5 intake ports (larger) on the head, this intake is matched and specifically designed to fix this issue with the ports mismatch, the throttle body is also a couple of mm larger, OEM is 65mm, the Bosch is 68mm In the end it will look "prettier" than the molded plastic thing that is the OEM MZR 2.0 intake As for the LSD, it's the OEM Torsen which works fine for what I use the car for, plus, basically no maintenance apart from the occasional oil change
    • I was at Tunehouse in Marrickville (great team over there really know their VR's) , and I spotted this Very clean R35.  
    • Mate , I have the same issue right now with the exhaust noise , if you can tell me what your local guy did , I'll talk to my guys and see if they can do the same. Power is good but it just too loud when put it down. 
    • The other trick I've found with wrinkle black is to put the can in hot water for a bit to warm the paint up, and to pre-heat whatever you're painting. It'll be interesting to see if you pick up any power with the intake, following with interest. Got a proper lsd for this?
