Thats no surprise, I dont know of many GTR's that can run 10.5 with a stock transmission for any length of time, be it R32, R33, R34 or R35. I suppose there arent many production cars that can.

This will lead to stronger set ups, I'm just thankful to this guy pushing the envelope so soon, so that the rest of us plebs reap the benefit in 4-5 years when we can afford one.

There is no question that this guy wont stop till he gets the absolute most out of his car. All I can say to him is thankyou.

I fully agree. However the 10.53 run is incredibly quick!

I just hope that someone is able to develop a manual transmission! haha.

for what POSSIBLE reason would you want that to happen?!

Some of these guys still think that a conventional manual is somehow so much stronger than some "semi-auto" and that with their superman skills could change gear just as fast as a DSG, if they were driving it!

PPG are currently developing the stronger gearsets, so it's only a matter of time.

A 10.5sec car will burn a box, its pretty simple.

Ouch! As said above, props to these brave few testing the waters and pushing the boundaries on the new GTR. Will only mean for a wealth of knowledge and aftermarket support for when many of us can afford one
