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

and it begins (again)

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.

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
