Switzer P800 Nissan Gt-r Makes Over 700 Hp At The Wheels


Recommended Posts

Hey Guys... saw this on the main page!

had a quick look around, found this dyno video and um i it looks to me 700hp @ just the front wheels haha fools

http://www.dragtimes.com/2009-Nissan-GT-R-Videos-18061.html

and not only saying that... i am sure a 700hp GTR would be faster then

( 0-60 time of 3.35 seconds and a 1/4 Mile of 11.28 seconds at 132 MPH )

what you guys reckon?

+1 BS

It's true that an AWD supercar with 700 AWHP should be going far faster than 3.35 and 11.28. That's almost as slow as the original R35. Double the ponies should make the car a low 10 sec car at least.

Maybe their babying the clutch/transmission. I have my doubts about its longevity when far more mildly modified R35s are breaking them at the drag strip.

You sir have no idea. You know the front wheels wont turn without the back ones!

JK

Um how about No? Its called disconnect rear drive shaft = only fronts? I aint to sure on there setup...

but if you watched the dyno... they keep the cam of the back wheels and also when it comes on full throttle only the front

climb the dyno rollers 'rear didnt'

and yup thats what i thought also... thats pretty slow for nearly over 50% power increase from factory?!

OK? whats with all the wanks on here?

I'VE READ THE ARTICLE AND WATCHED THE VIDEO!!

I'm refering to the 700hp one, because all the article goes on about is the 700hp, compare that to the GTR 480/ish

still the times dont matched the HP power to get up and go power...

it aint even faster?

R35 GTR's have a gearbox safty function that will reduce the throttle imput at the throttle body regardless of the position of the pedal if it senses to much torqe load on the gearbox.

Is quite feasable that this is the culprit behind the average times.

just because a car makes a certain amount of power is not always going to equate specatacular acceleration times as getting the power to the ground is they key and with a lot of modern cars there is a lot of computer trickery going on.

The most powerfull car is not allways the fastest.

Um how about No? Its called disconnect rear drive shaft = only fronts?

I'm sorry mate but if you knew how an R35 works you'd know that's not possible. in an R35 power goes from the engine to the rear mounted transaxle, and there is a shaft sending drive back to the front. so you could disconnect that and run in RWD, but if you disconnected the rear tail shaft you'd have no wheel drive. and even trying to run in RWD i'm not sure if the ecu would allow it.

  • 2 weeks later...

ps. the 700hp they speak of is noted to be flywheel hp at the end of the video clip...

so thats not 700hp at the wheels...

and no you cant run a gtr as fwd only... the movement on the dyno is pretty typical due to the physics of whole thing...

    • Cheers. Skyline is back on the menu, can’t get rid of it. It’s like a child you don’t want, or herpes 
    • I got back to Japan in January and was keen to get back on track as quickly as possible. Europe is god-awful for track accessibility (by comparison), so I picked up a first-gen GT86 in December just to have something I could jump into right away. The Skyline came over in a container this time and landed in early January. It was a bit battered after Europe, though—I refused to do anything beyond essential upkeep while it was over there. The clutch master cylinder gave out, and so did the power steering. I didn’t even bother changing the oil; it was the same stuff that went in just before I left Japan the first time. Naughty. Power steering parts would’ve cost double with shipping and taxes, so knowing I’d be heading back to Japan, I just postponed it and powered through the arm workout. It took a solid three months to get the car back on the road. Registration was a nightmare this time around. There were a bunch of BS fees to navigate, and sourcing parts was a headache. I needed stock seats for shaken, mistakenly blew 34k JPY on some ENR34 seats—which, of course, didn’t fit—then ended up having the car’s technical sheet amended to register it as a two-seater with the Brides. Then there’s the GT86. Amazing car. Does everything I want it to do. Parts are cheap, easy to find, and I don’t care what anyone says—it’s super rewarding to drive. I’ve done a few basic mods: diff ratio, coilovers, discs, pads, seat, etc. It already had a new exhaust manifold and the 180kph limiter removed, so I assume it’s running some kind of map. I’ve just been thrashing it at the track non-stop—mostly Fuji Speedway now, since I need something with higher speed after all that autobahn time. The wheels on the R34 always pissed me off—too big, and it was a nightmare getting tires to fit properly under the arches. So I threw in the towel and bought something that fits better. Looks way cleaner too (at least to me)—less hotboy, less attention-seeking. Still an R34, though. Now for future plans. There are a few things still outstanding with the car. First up, the rear subframe needs an overhaul—that’s priority one. Next, I need to figure out an engine rebuild plan. No timeline yet, but I want to keep it economical—not cutting corners, just not throwing tens of thousands at a mechanic I can barely communicate with. And finally, paint. Plus a bit of tidying up here and there.  
    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
