Topfueltrooper has a point, those hard launches in the GTR put alot of stress on the drivetrain and when i looked into the TSB reports on the shop computer Nissan has started issuing overhaul procedures and repair prices for such components after being worn out form multiple launches, my buddy in town has an Evo that runs 10s but has to rebuild the tranny and case after a few nights of racing :/... AWD is sick for traction but not longevity it seems..
very smooth and non-abusive pass. lol great launch (didnt come out upsetting the chassis, letting it use its energy to move forward, and not "pushing something that can pull itself" great running car. props to the driver and the builder. especially, if the suspension was "stock-ish"
The GTR is a nice car as well. Why do you clowns choose sides like you're in some kind of gang affiliated warfare...simply childish. Appreciate all the cars that put up phenomenal numbers. Stop getting into the youtube wars that start from I'm right and you're not, and then turns into you're a "nigger and then you're white trash, LOL. simply childish, knock it off unless you're 12 years old. Both the GTR and the ZR1 are amazing cars. BANG!!!
@perro030894 "vortec" engines used since around 2000, the 5.3, 6.0, 4.8, might have been labled vortec but are in the same family of engines as all LSs. the last engines actually recognized as "vortecs" were the 350s and 305s of the 90s
dont understand how it can do 9s . the AMS Gtr has 800RWhp therefore it should launch faster the the zr1 since it has 4wheel drive and 100 extra hp . IT must be the great Lingenfelter computer tuning bc thats an amazing gain for the little changes it has.
@toyoracing89 secondly, I LOVE AMERICAN CARS TO DEATH!! MY FAVORITE IS THE THUNDERBIRD. My reason for saying this is because I CAN. YOU PPL THINK this is amazing lol....news flash: POWERSTOKE Bottom end with everthing in +351w heads....WOULD EAT THIS THING FOR BREAKFAST, LUNCH AND DINNER. how's that for shoving air into something Asian? Oh w8 that's an AMERICAN COMBO....hmmm go figure.
@Marc99gt first off you super smart cookie when I brought up the gtr AND the ecoboost engine it was for ONE major reason...TO SHOW HOW DUMB YOU ALL ARE...internal strength and block strength make a good engine. The fact that you guys are bragging about car that weighs barely 2tons with an engine that damn near 2 v-6 is a testimony in it's self to you ppls stupidity
@Speedmccool385bitch There is so much ignorance in your post that I don't know where to begin. That pushrod engine has stronger internals and weighs less than that 3.8L TT V6 in the GTR, FACT. How hard is it to make power with 2 turbos on a V6? My Grand National made more power than the GTR with a 20 year old engine and ONE turbo. The ZR1 engine or LS9 is barely being used at 638 hp and has a 100K warranty backing it where as the GTR powertrain does not. The GTR is far from better engineered
The gtr trans are like tooth picks good for there first couple of uses but break, zr1 trans is tried and true. Gtr parts are crazy expensive compared to zr1 modds. Both cars have there flaws the vette will gett its valve train replace sooner then the gtr, I wonder how many time a vette will nees to get the valve train done to equal the gtr shit box trans. I dont care it shifts faster. The vette was made for a driver. The gtr was made to make every ordinary person think there a driver.
Lol this car isn't no engineering feat IT'S STILL PUSHROD! lol meaning that in a few years your still gonna have deal with valve train problems...being honest the gtr IS better engineered you have a car with 8 cylinders and huge displacement W/BLOWER making 600+horses vs a car that has far less displacement (forced induction included) seriously guys HOW FUCKING HARD IS IT TO MAKE A LIGHTW8 car with a BIG DISPLACEMENT engine fast?
@Speedmccool385bitch Well, I would put it this way. Because we can. And honestly which would you rather brag about...the amount of twin turbo boost you're shoving into an engine that's about the size of a coke bottle. Or the amount of cubic inches in a motor the size of said Asian car?
@racingchamp101 Have yet to see that yet. But the point is, GM uses pushrods for one reason...dependable. And honestly it would be sick to see a Laguna seca S/C take on a ZL1. But that's a battle that's yet to be fought. The GTR is a great car, I just have my personal preferences, and those are in the small block Ford or big block Chevrolet family.
@Speedmccool385bitch The fact it's a simple pushrod motor and it performs like this is quite spectacular, keep in mind, this motor is far from maxed out given it's displacement. Yes it's a V8, and comparing to a GTR, which is also a spectacular car...it's all wheel drive, forced induction...is it really better engineered, or over-engineered.
I highly doubt you will see valvetrain problems on a pushrod motor anywhere near in the design of a GTR motor.
@I6PWR Vert true. I agree its a great car, but. Point of, the 'vette is simpler, and I mean come on, there's people with Z06's making ZR1 power on the stock 6L or 7L and then some. But the reason why the ZR1 has the smaller motor is for longevity, because GM builds their cars to be driven and last...not to be trailer queens like Lambo's or Ferrari's, look at their 350CI V8, it's been around since the 60's
What does the stock 2012 GTR run again at almot 95K?
2008 Corvette z06 11.252@124.80 stock tires 12/3/08 MIR
Granted it has a axleback exhaust, but it is still N/A on stock Goodyears. I would like to see it on the 2011 ZO6 Michelin Pilot Sport PS2s or the Pilot Sport cup competition tires used on the 911s and Vipers.
@edmundnlemadim it says 'the record pass', period. quite the encompassing description, yes...? are you 'new' here? do you know how fucked up (biased, if you will) vid descriptions will be? no?
god forbid I pull this crime again so please explain: it's perfect that you condemn a clear lack of presumption, but a request for specific, relevant information is 'nitpicky' and nonsense. is this actually correct?
you're a slave to arrogance and arrogance calls for another attack. knock yerself out.
no problem to tell who the ricer-homo-faggots are here, as they keep bringing up their precious Datusun GeeTeeAre. they have a hard time admitting their ugly jap POS was beaten at the ring, even with Datsun trying to cheat their times its still a loser shit box faggot queer-mobile.
@Topfueltrooper spoken like a true homophobic redneck. no ones going to grill you if you take a couple of meatsticks up your bum once in a while. and that queer mobile you mentioned is something that you will probably never be able to afford. no need to be jealous of the ricer homo faggots who are picking up chicks left and right
Hey 'tard, there's no turbocharger in that thing. It's the stock ZR1 6.2L Supercharged V8 reworked by Lingenfelter Performance Engineering. Get your facts right.
@yosibakinor Hey idiot. I know you are not attempting to tell me anything about Corvettes. I promise to make you look stupid. I'm well aware of every modification done to the car and I have been to LPE to see the place for myself. I was reading about the Late great John Lingenfelter when he piloted the Sledgehammer vette back in 88 so STFU. Where did I say it was turbocharged you illiterate SOB? Did you read my 2 posts together? That ZO6 has a GT55 turbo. I replied to myself. Some people!
It gets even worse than that. It is going to be a long time before a full weight GTR runs the bottom of the 8s. It will definitely need a diet or driveline parts will not be happy.
Read Marcs post about that. This ZR1 is on stock block and over 100 less horsepower at the wheels. Also there is no reason that this car couldn't go faster the way it is right now.
@Seventh7Art The Spe1000 is also using a fully built shortblock and aftermarket turbos like the other kits but the 570. The LPE ZR1 is still on the stock LONGBLOCK, supercharger, exhaust manifolds and cat-back. With a cam and longtubes, it would probably run a 9.60. The SPE1000 is also 60K and it is not documented either way if that is installed or not. This is no where near half that in modifications.
@Seventh7Art The ZR1 is running these times with 739 rwhp and stock roots supercharger which is the most inefficient power adder. With turbos, it would be in the 8s. The GTR will not see 8s anytime soon unless it goes in a diet. The C6 ZO6 has been in the 8s since 2007. One did it on the bone stock shortblock on 93 octane and meth. Plenty C5ZO6s have been in the 8s years before.
The ZR1 doesn't need the additional 100+ hp to beat the GTR. Nissan took a 2009 model of a year, tweaked it and made changes to get the Ring time down to a 7:26 in a 2010 model with the changes. Look at the other 11 tracks times that they are on. the ZR1 beats the GTR by several seconds on most. The new ZO6 carbon has already beaten the GTR on both tracks it was test on. The 2011 ZO6 with ZO7 package handles better and didn't need all of the additional power. Theory proven wrong.
@Seventh7Art Don't worry, The C7 Corvette will be right behind to beat it again. They still haven't beat the Viper time and that won't happen any time soon.
@Marc99GT LOL The new GTR is much faster than the old one. The New GTR lapped willow 4 seconds faster than the Z06 carbon and it lapped the ring 2 seconds faster than the ZR1. No ring time for the carbon but judging by their performances at willow is safe to say the Z06 carbon would stand no chance their either. Its also safe to say the new GTR would match the ZR1's times on other tracks due to the increase in performance, so yes the ZR1 does need an extra 100hp and 400lbs less weight to
@aieljose LOL! The new GTR is not much faster than the old one with a 30 hp increase and still hovering 3,900 lbs. It is quicker because of the 4K launch, which can only be used 4 times consecutively. The New GTR beat the 2011 ZO6 by .18 seconds when tested on the same day by the same driver under much more controlled conditions. The 2012 GTR also had a slower trapspeed and only beat the ZO6 by 1- 1 1/2 cars while the ZO6 was catching up. The ZR1 kills the GTR from a roll all day.
@Marc99GT LOL Thats one track. Its beaten the carbon by 4 seconds at willow and it has lapped the ring faster than the ZR1 7:24 despite having 100 less hp and torque and still hovering at 3900lb like you say. How do you explain that? It's because it's the better engineered car. And please if your going to bring up acceleration it pretty clear that you've already lost.....Way off topic!
@aieljose That is because you are talking about peak hp numbers which is meaningless on a road course. You tell me how many times does the ZR1 hit peak rpms on the road course. It is very rare if at all, but the long straight. the ZR1 still traps much higher over the same 1/4 mile. The GTR is not better engineered. The ZR1 has much more technology underneath the skin than you can imagine. You know less than nothing about the ZR1. I can prove that all night.
@Marc99GT All that engineering yet it gets beat by a less powerfull heavier car and im supposed to believe the ZR1 is better engineered? It doesn;t make any sense. Neither does using acceleration stats to prove you arguement about track times. Id hope the heavier and less powerfull car would get pulled on the straights. There would be something wrong if it didn't. It's simple psyics. The GTR gets similar track times despite being heavier and less powerfull. It's better engineered! There's no
@aieljose It took almost 3 years to beat the 09 ZR1 time that was run in June of 08. I would hope if I take 100 3 point shots and you take a 1,000 3 pt shots, that you would hit more than I do. It is not so much about weight and power around the track if the car is well within it's torque band. Peak numbers mean nothing and I have proven that. I have also proven that the ZO6 and ZR1 construction is way ahead of the GTR by far. The GTR is only quick 0-60, AWD and 4K LC. After 60, it''s all over.
@aieljose I would hope that an AWD car launching at 4K rpms would be quicker from 0-60. Have you ever seen the time without LC used? I believe I read it hits 60 in 3.8-3.9. Still fast as lightening, but anyone with any drag racing experience knows that the biggest impact on ET in the 1/4 happens in the first 60ft. Put drag radials on the ZO6 or ZR1, which are street legal btw, and all of this is just magazine racing. The GTR barely beat the ZO6 by .18. The ZR1 would have beat both that day.
@Marc99GT True point Marc. .18 of a second is nothing to brag about at all. In my opinion if it's any less than a half second or whatever, there's nothing to brag about because that .18 could dwindle down to being driver error, missing a shift, being in too low a gear when in a bend, or whatever. If it was say half a second or more, I'd be surprised.
@aieljose Did you know that the ZO6 is the first mass produced car to use laser welds on the aluminum frame? Go take some time to read about the signifigance of that fact and where that type of welding is used. You guys always make baseless comments about Corvettes and I find it entertaining. You are full of magazine performance specs and that is about it. The GTR is built with Unit steel which is much cheaper btw incase you didn't know which I'm certain is the case.
Corvette Zr1 vs GTR HKS570, Gt2, Carrera gt, Cl65 AMG Evotech (Compilation).
watch?v=8-srEAYqpGM
The GTR with HKS570 kit makes atleast 530-600 awhp and the ZR1 pulls hard on it and it is much faster than any stock GTR by far. The ZR1 is a killer from a roll and this video proves it. You will NEVER find a video of a stock GTR pulling on a ZO6 or ZR1 because the GTR 4K LC makes it quick, period.
@aieljose To come here to state your case about a GTR driven by a former race car driver has less than zero translation to any buyer of the GTR. The ZR1 engine has much better components, much better frame construction, better brakes and the fastest reacting suspension system in the world. These are all facts you can take with you when you leave. With pistons only changed, a Camaro has run 8s with an LS9. No GTR with fully built rotating assembly, has even seen 8s. That Camaro is over 4K lbs btw
@Marc99GT Why the hell are you talking about acceleration? Your first post was about track times yet now all of a sudden it's about straightline speed? The fact that the Zr1 and Carbon accelerate faster than the GTR yet lose on tracks like willow and the ring proves my point that the GTR does more with less. What do you think would happen if You modded a GTR to 630hp and reduced it's weight by 400lbs? How bad do you think it would beat the ZR1? LOLO You simply don't get it!
@aieljose Why the hell are you talking about a GTR on a ZR1 video? Acceleration isv an important part of a performance car. The fact that the ZO6 lost by .18 seconds to the NEW GTR is very telling about the times run by previous GTRs because the 2011 ZO6 would kill them. If you dropped the weight by 400 lbs, you would have carve up the car and alter it alot. It is built with the wrong materials to have much less weight.You simply don't get that the GTR design has its limitations.
@aieljose I have a question! where are you getting this info from(really) GTR better design then the corvette? I would like (and the world) to hear you explain how you came to this? And please don't pull that nur, ring time on us please! (it took nissan 5years to modify the gtr to beat zr1's lap time which corvette acheieved once with a few months of testing to get their time)
@aieljose what do you mean they lose on the track? the carbon doesn't have 630hp. and what do you think would happen if they threw AWD on the vette? come on now
@aieljose Fact: The LS series engine used in the Corvette line has been in production for more years than most of us can remember, and the drivetrain that follows also uses tried and true methods. The GTR is all new, meaning all new problems that have yet to be worked out. These are stock cars against stock cars, who gives a rats ass how possible it is to throw money at a GTR to shave weight and add power?
@Marc99GT Especially when you compare real world performance and through-out ring times reported by magazines. My buddy raced a 2012 GT-R in his ZR1 on the expressway and it was absolutely brutal. The GT-R weighing 800lbs more with 110hp less was a speck in the rear-view mirror.
Off the line they're consistent though, gotta love a car that drives itself!!
@racingchamp101 No you fool, I have a friend who works with GM, and the only think beyond stock is a rollcage, which guess what? ADDS WEIGHT!! So even heavier than it was it ran those times.
@Redivide84 buzzer wrong the ford gt did beat stock and it beats the fastest tuned version of the zr1 wich goes 228mhp the fastest ford gt goes 253mph
@edgar83957 To break it down for you... The '12 Z06 catches up with the '12 GTR. The GTR is slightly faster than the Z06. But the '12 ZR1 is faster than the '12 GTR... Basically, the GTR is on top of the sports cars (Z06), but is on the bottom of some supercars (ZR1). But still... All 3 cars are good.
@edgar83957 Like i said... The GTR is also good... When you think about it, it's less priced than the ZR1 and most other super cars and still beats some. It's fast
@Marc99GT agreed, ( though the import fags will whine and cry to try to differ. ( also this modded LPE ZR1 can do a run down the track every day, for a full year and not miss a beat, the gtr is done & cooked after 3 - 4 runs. there has YET for a POS gtr here locally to survive a day of track runs without blowing up.
The last time I checked, the GTR SR850 ran 9.89. The 9.62 was a GTR SPE1000 with a built engine on C16. I have most of the specs in front of me on the car. It took 866 whp & 849 wtq to do it. The ZR1 running 9s here is on a bone stock longblock with 739 rwhp and most inefficient modified roots type blower. Also with a speed manual and not a semi-auto. Try and see if you can get a GTR o run 9s using the stock turbos or drop a twin screw on the ZR1. It wll happen soon.
@thevettedude66 I think that would calm the GTR crowd down a little. The TT Zo6s already are killers of just about anything foreign especially on 93 octane. Check out this monster. I would give anything for an automatic 1,000 rwhp ZO6 that looks stock.
search: House of Boost 1300hp C6 Z06 Corvette Teaser
@Seventh7Art The GTR doesn't get near the ZR1 with stock turbos. Wait until someone puts a twin screw supercharger on top of the ZR1. All of these packages for the GTR are major dollars. I have seen some costing over 90K.
@Seventh7Art The most expensive package is not 60K and does not make over 1,000 awhp. Also that may not be installed which is a huge difference. It makes about 950 awhp and reliably can't be determined about a package that just came out.You can't make that statement yet. The ZR1 doesn't have to play catchup, because that is not the goal of people spending over 100K on a car. The ZO6 is well beyond the GTR especially on pump gas so it is not an issue.
@Seventh7Art I know many of the others are making more power and not runnng as quick. They had to pull some weight out of it because it doesn't make much sense with 900 rwhp. I saw the R1K package car dynoed and it was just below 950 awhp, but that isn't a big difference. i still would not say reliable until people have made several blasts with them on the street. On a dyno is one thing, but on the street with real loads is another. If the 60K is true all said and done, that is a bargain.
@Seventh7Art I have spent years drag racing clearly there is some material piece of information missing from this story. You say 900 whp, but is that 900 whp or 999 whp? It makes a difference obviously. I will eventuly find the specs on the car because what you are saying doesn't make much sense without some others factors being mentioned.
@Marc99GT the mustang dyno showed low 900 whp. the car is confirmed to be a full interior street car on street tires and ran 9.3 seconds with terrible wheel hop up to 40 mph. It could run low 9s with better Launch Control system. The GTR is not called Godzilla for nothing, man. It's got the most advanced automotive technology in it.
@Seventh7Art That makes sense because a mustang dyno will always show lower numbers than a dynojet. There are many ZO6s running 9s with less than 800 rwhp, but they weigh a heck of a lot less. The difference is they are on 93 octane. Plenty are well over 1,000 rwhp.
Did you notice something about the 911 DMY and 911 GT2 9ff vs GTR?
GTR cost about 100K USD total. The 911 cost 2x as much.
GTR Switzer P800 has 200HP less and weights 1/2 TON more than the 911 and BEATS a overpowered/lighter 911 GT2 9ff to 200KPH before the 9ff's 200 extra HP takes over.
Even the 911 DMY has the 1/2 TON advantage over GTR and BARELY beat it.
How in the world will the 911 beat a 1000HP GTR R1K car?
Even the GTR Swizer P850 car beat the Veyron to 200KPH. WTF?
@AutoFanBoy I will say this the GTR has one up on the ZR1 because of the Turbo, the Turbo you can spool and spool no matter what. When you get up to 700+ hp every HP does make a difference. Now don't get me wrong I appreciate and respect the GTR it a a force to be reckoned with. There is a video on M5Board where there is a highly moded GT2 vs a Highly Moded GTR I think that the GT2 won. I my self am not a fan of Porsche but I do appreciate what the GTR has done and is capable of.
I own a ZR1 and GTR. Both tuned as well as 2 other wonderful cars. Stock for Stock, ZR1 is in a different class. ZR1 looks like a missile, sounds like a monster, handles like a dream, and paid 140K for it back in 09.
The fact that a JAP car with 4 seats (ZR1?), robotic like technology, 4-wheel-drive (good bye Evo) and a V6 engine, overweight body weight (4K lbs) and <500HP almost MATCH a ZR1 for less price.
On another note, the record above is obsolete because GTR already broked this 1/4 mile time with a 9.62 second ran.
watch?v=AZV6BBE4w14
[Watch the WHITE GTR from 0.57sec].
And guess what, even the tuned GTR with this type of tuned performance cost cheaper than a stock ZR1. WTF is wrong with that picture?
Sounds like you need to look thru the end of the tunnel and accept an amazing car that does not have the "Made In USA" logo on it. Don't be blinded by American Patriotism.
@AutoFanBoy ah if you look at the video there is a go pro in the car and the passenger side is empty. Secondly did the ZR1 beat the GTR its a simple yes of no if you have an issue answering that question please refer to video over and over again until you realize it. The point is this HP for HP the ZR1 beat the GTR stop making excuses, you seem like a smart guy no pun intended you do your homework but this a as black and white as it gets.
HP (730WHP/800BHP) GTR tuned vs HP (680WHP/750HP) ZR1 tuned (from rolling start). 3900lbs/730WHP = 5.34 lbs/1 HP (GTR) VS 3400lbs/680WHP = 5.00 lbs/1 HP (ZR1). Both TUNED w/ ZR1 costing 30K+ more!
[The video below shows them from rolling start where ZR1 shines!]
watch?v=2uORyZI1VdU
> GTR has the fastest quarter mile record over ZR1 (9.62/9.67 @ 149-150mph):
@AutoFanBoy Now I have only one issue, my wives boss has an LPE Stage 1 ZR1 and that thing is just barely over 700 hp to the crank no the wheel, I don't really know, but if that is so then there is a disparaging difference hence a 100 hp, more than makes up for the difference in weight.
@TheRebuttle Made a good point! The ZR1 LPE Stage 1 has 750 BHP and 680 WHP (to the ground) + about 3400 lbs of weight w/ full tank of gas! The GTR Switzer P800 has 800 BHP and 730 WHP (to the ground) + about 4000 lbs w/ full tank! So... 3400 lbs / 680 HP = 5 lbs / 1 HP (ZR1) VS 4000 lbs / 730 HP = 5.48 lbs / 1 HP (GTR tuned) VS 3400 lbs / 640 HP = 5.31 lbs / 1 HP (ZR1 stock) VS 4000 lbs / 480 HP = 8.33 lbs / 1 HP (GTR stock) HUGE DIFFERENCE between both cars
@AutoFanBoy Actually talked to my wives boss today he's stage 1 LPE makes 720 bhp and 630 rwhp thats about 100 less than the GTR to the tire he is going to try and dig up his dyno sheet but he said it starts to make power at 3K rpm if he remembers right
@masonizere Dude you are talking close to a 100hp+ difference between the 2 cars at the wheels when you figure out that the gt-r needs 100 hp more to beat the zr1 then you have just figured it out...
@masonizere My fiend has a GT-R and there is no room for error at all...if you are coming in hot into t a corner the computer takes over if your tail slides out the computer takes over, if you are breaking too hard the computer takes over...This is from the ride he took me on... He even admits his Supra was more fun to drive than his GT-R. The GT-R is all computerized. Your argument might work with some one who has never ridden in one of these but really its a video game on wheels
@masonizere and while all car are computerized to a point the GT-R really leaves no room for error is like having a driver with in the car...this is no bullshit if you have ever ridden in one you would know...

@Marc99gt first off you super smart cookie when I brought up the gtr AND the ecoboost engine it was for ONE major reason...TO SHOW HOW DUMB YOU ALL ARE...internal strength and block strength make a good engine. The fact that you guys are bragging about car that weighs barely 2tons with an engine that damn near 2 v-6 is a testimony in it's self to you ppls stupidity
Speedmccool385bitch 9 months ago
@Speedmccool385bitch There is so much ignorance in your post that I don't know where to begin. That pushrod engine has stronger internals and weighs less than that 3.8L TT V6 in the GTR, FACT. How hard is it to make power with 2 turbos on a V6? My Grand National made more power than the GTR with a 20 year old engine and ONE turbo. The ZR1 engine or LS9 is barely being used at 638 hp and has a 100K warranty backing it where as the GTR powertrain does not. The GTR is far from better engineered

The gtr trans are like tooth picks good for there first couple of uses but break, zr1 trans is tried and true. Gtr parts are crazy expensive compared to zr1 modds. Both cars have there flaws the vette will gett its valve train replace sooner then the gtr, I wonder how many time a vette will nees to get the valve train done to equal the gtr shit box trans.

toyoracing89 4 months ago
@Speedmccool385bitch The fact it's a simple pushrod motor and it performs like this is quite spectacular, keep in mind, this motor is far from maxed out given it's displacement. Yes it's a V8, and comparing to a GTR, which is also a spectacular car...it's all wheel drive, forced induction...is it really better engineered, or over-engineered.
I highly doubt you will see valvetrain problems on a pushrod motor anywhere near in the design of a GTR motor.
Vette has far fewer parts to go wrong.

@I6PWR Vert true. I agree its a great car, but. Point of, the 'vette is simpler, and I mean come on, there's people with Z06's making ZR1 power on the stock 6L or 7L and then some. But the reason why the ZR1 has the smaller motor is for longevity, because GM builds their cars to be driven and last...not to be trailer queens like Lambo's or Ferrari's, look at their 350CI V8, it's been around since the 60's

@Seventh7Art The Spe1000 is also using a fully built shortblock and aftermarket turbos like the other kits but the 570. The LPE ZR1 is still on the stock LONGBLOCK, supercharger, exhaust manifolds and cat-back. With a cam and longtubes, it would probably run a 9.60. The SPE1000 is also 60K and it is not documented either way if that is installed or not. This is no where near half that in modifications.

@Seventh7Art The ZR1 is running these times with 739 rwhp and stock roots supercharger which is the most inefficient power adder. With turbos, it would be in the 8s. The GTR will not see 8s anytime soon unless it goes in a diet. The C6 ZO6 has been in the 8s since 2007. One did it on the bone stock shortblock on 93 octane and meth. Plenty C5ZO6s have been in the 8s years before.

The ZR1 doesn't need the additional 100+ hp to beat the GTR. Nissan took a 2009 model of a year, tweaked it and made changes to get the Ring time down to a 7:26 in a 2010 model with the changes. Look at the other 11 tracks times that they are on. the ZR1 beats the GTR by several seconds on most. The new ZO6 carbon has already beaten the GTR on both tracks it was test on. The 2011 ZO6 with ZO7 package handles better and didn't need all of the additional power. Theory proven wrong.

No ring time for the carbon but judging by their performances at willow is safe to say the Z06 carbon would stand no chance their either. Its also safe to say the new GTR would match the ZR1's times on other tracks due to the increase in performance, so yes the ZR1 does need an extra 100hp and 400lbs less weight to
aieljose 11 months ago
@aieljose LOL! The new GTR is not much faster than the old one with a 30 hp increase and still hovering 3,900 lbs. It is quicker because of the 4K launch, which can only be used 4 times consecutively. The New GTR beat the 2011 ZO6 by .18 seconds when tested on the same day by the same driver under much more controlled conditions. The 2012 GTR also had a slower trapspeed and only beat the ZO6 by 1- 1 1/2 cars while the ZO6 was catching up. The ZR1 kills the GTR from a roll all day.

Its beaten the carbon by 4 seconds at willow and it has lapped the ring faster than the ZR1 7:24 despite having 100 less hp and torque and still hovering at 3900lb like you say. How do you explain that? It's because it's the better engineered car. And please if your going to bring up acceleration it pretty clear that you've already lost.....Way off topic!
aieljose 11 months ago
@aieljose That is because you are talking about peak hp numbers which is meaningless on a road course. You tell me how many times does the ZR1 hit peak rpms on the road course. It is very rare if at all, but the long straight. the ZR1 still traps much higher over the same 1/4 mile. The GTR is not better engineered. The ZR1 has much more technology underneath the skin than you can imagine. You know less than nothing about the ZR1. I can prove that all night.

@Marc99GT All that engineering yet it gets beat by a less powerfull heavier car and im supposed to believe the ZR1 is better engineered? It doesn;t make any sense. Neither does using acceleration stats to prove you arguement about track times. Id hope the heavier and less powerfull car would get pulled on the straights. There would be something wrong if it didn't. It's simple psyics. The GTR gets similar track times despite being heavier and less powerfull. It's better engineered! There's no
aieljose 11 months ago
@aieljose It took almost 3 years to beat the 09 ZR1 time that was run in June of 08. I would hope if I take 100 3 point shots and you take a 1,000 3 pt shots, that you would hit more than I do. It is not so much about weight and power around the track if the car is well within it's torque band. Peak numbers mean nothing and I have proven that. I have also proven that the ZO6 and ZR1 construction is way ahead of the GTR by far. The GTR is only quick 0-60, AWD and 4K LC. After 60, it''s all over.
Marc99GT 11 months ago
@aieljose I would hope that an AWD car launching at 4K rpms would be quicker from 0-60. Have you ever seen the time without LC used? I believe I read it hits 60 in 3.8-3.9. Still fast as lightening, but anyone with any drag racing experience knows that the biggest impact on ET in the 1/4 happens in the first 60ft. Put drag radials on the ZO6 or ZR1, which are street legal btw, and all of this is just magazine racing. The GTR barely beat the ZO6 by .18. The ZR1 would have beat both that day.
Marc99GT 11 months ago
@Marc99GT True point Marc. .18 of a second is nothing to brag about at all. In my opinion if it's any less than a half second or whatever, there's nothing to brag about because that .18 could dwindle down to being driver error, missing a shift, being in too low a gear when in a bend, or whatever. If it was say half a second or more, I'd be surprised.

@aieljose Did you know that the ZO6 is the first mass produced car to use laser welds on the aluminum frame?

You are full of magazine performance specs and that is about it. The GTR is built with Unit steel which is much cheaper btw incase you didn't know which I'm certain is the case.

@aieljose To come here to state your case about a GTR driven by a former race car driver has less than zero translation to any buyer of the GTR. The ZR1 engine has much better components, much better frame construction, better brakes and the fastest reacting suspension system in the world. These are all facts you can take with you when you leave. With pistons only changed, a Camaro has run 8s with an LS9. No GTR with fully built rotating assembly, has even seen 8s. That Camaro is over 4K lbs btw

@Marc99GT Why the hell are you talking about acceleration? Your first post was about track times yet now all of a sudden it's about straightline speed? The fact that the Zr1 and Carbon accelerate faster than the GTR yet lose on tracks like willow and the ring proves my point that the GTR does more with less. What do you think would happen if You modded a GTR to 630hp and reduced it's weight by 400lbs? How bad do you think it would beat the ZR1? LOLO You simply don't get it!
aieljose 11 months ago
@aieljose Why the hell are you talking about a GTR on a ZR1 video? Acceleration isv an important part of a performance car. The fact that the ZO6 lost by .18 seconds to the NEW GTR is very telling about the times run by previous GTRs because the 2011 ZO6 would kill them. If you dropped the weight by 400 lbs, you would have carve up the car and alter it alot. It is built with the wrong materials to have much less weight.You simply don't get that the GTR design has its limitations.

@Seventh7Art The most expensive package is not 60K and does not make over 1,000 awhp. Also that may not be installed which is a huge difference. It makes about 950 awhp and reliably can't be determined about a package that just came out.You can't make that statement yet. The ZR1 doesn't have to play catchup, because that is not the goal of people spending over 100K on a car. The ZO6 is well beyond the GTR especially on pump gas so it is not an issue.

On a dyno is one thing, but on the street with real loads is another. If the 60K is true all said and done, that is a bargain.

Seventh7Art 1 year ago
@Seventh7Art That makes sense because a mustang dyno will always show lower numbers than a dynojet. There are many ZO6s running 9s with less than 800 rwhp, but they weigh a heck of a lot less. The difference is they are on 93 octane. Plenty are well over 1,000 rwhp.

Did you notice something about the 911 DMY and 911 GT2 9ff vs GTR?
GTR cost about 100K USD total. The 911 cost 2x as much.
GTR Switzer P800 has 200HP less and weights 1/2 TON more than the 911 and BEATS a overpowered/lighter 911 GT2 9ff to 200KPH before the 9ff's 200 extra HP takes over.
Even the 911 DMY has the 1/2 TON advantage over GTR and BARELY beat it.
How in the world will the 911 beat a 1000HP GTR R1K car?
Even the GTR Swizer P850 car beat the Veyron to 200KPH. WTF?

@AutoFanBoy I will say this the GTR has one up on the ZR1 because of the Turbo, the Turbo you can spool and spool no matter what. When you get up to 700+ hp every HP does make a difference. Now don't get me wrong I appreciate and respect the GTR it a a force to be reckoned with. There is a video on M5Board where there is a highly moded GT2 vs a Highly Moded GTR I think that the GT2 won. I my self am not a fan of Porsche but I do appreciate what the GTR has done and is capable of.

What are you talking about?
I own a ZR1 and GTR. Both tuned as well as 2 other wonderful cars. Stock for Stock, ZR1 is in a different class. ZR1 looks like a missile, sounds like a monster, handles like a dream, and paid 140K for it back in 09.
The fact that a JAP car with 4 seats (ZR1?), robotic like technology, 4-wheel-drive (good bye Evo) and a V6 engine, overweight body weight (4K lbs) and <500HP almost MATCH a ZR1 for less price.
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING JAP ENGINEERING!

On another note, the record above is obsolete because GTR already broked this 1/4 mile time with a 9.62 second ran.

[Watch the WHITE GTR from 0.57sec].
And guess what, even the tuned GTR with this type of tuned performance cost cheaper than a stock ZR1. WTF is wrong with that picture?
Sounds like you need to look thru the end of the tunnel and accept an amazing car that does not have the "Made In USA" logo on it. Don't be blinded by American Patriotism.

@AutoFanBoy Also the SR850 that broke 9.6 seconds with 850BHP on race gas is a full weight street car :-)

Common dude, lets check the facts between GTR vs ZR1 Hennesey comparisons
GTR has 4 seats, ZR1 does not.
GTR has an extra 2 grown human beings of added body weight, ZR1 does not.
GTR looks like a boxy family car. ZR1 looks like a missile.
GTR has auto trans. ZR1 has manual.
GTR has V6 TT engine. ZR1 has a supercharged V8.
GTR's Power/Weight Ratio is lower than ZR1's superior power/weight ratio.
And <1/4 sec difference is the best that ZR1 can do? Are you kidding me? GTR WINS!

@AutoFanBoy ah if you look at the video there is a go pro in the car and the passenger side is empty. Secondly did the ZR1 beat the GTR its a simple yes of no if you have an issue answering that question please refer to video over and over again until you realize it. The point is this HP for HP the ZR1 beat the GTR stop making excuses, you seem like a smart guy no pun intended you do your homework but this a as black and white as it gets.

Common bro, let's check something here:
HP (730WHP/800BHP) GTR tuned vs HP (680WHP/750HP) ZR1 tuned (from rolling start). 3900lbs/730WHP = 5.34 lbs/1 HP (GTR) VS 3400lbs/680WHP = 5.00 lbs/1 HP (ZR1). Both TUNED w/ ZR1 costing 30K+ more!
[The video below shows them from rolling start where ZR1 shines!]
watch?v=2uORyZI1VdU
> GTR has the fastest quarter mile record over ZR1 (9.62/9.67 @ 149-150mph):
watch?v=AZV6BBE4w14
[Watch the WHITE GTR from 0.57sec].
R1K Switzer is coming!

@AutoFanBoy Now I have only one issue, my wives boss has an LPE Stage 1 ZR1 and that thing is just barely over 700 hp to the crank no the wheel, I don't really know, but if that is so then there is a disparaging difference hence a 100 hp, more than makes up for the difference in weight.

@AutoFanBoy Actually talked to my wives boss today he's stage 1 LPE makes 720 bhp and 630 rwhp thats about 100 less than the GTR to the tire he is going to try and dig up his dyno sheet but he said it starts to make power at 3K rpm if he remembers right

@masonizere Dude you are talking close to a 100hp+ difference between the 2 cars at the wheels when you figure out that the gt-r needs 100 hp more to beat the zr1 then you have just figured it out...
TheRebuttle 1 year ago
@TheRebuttle Don't you mean the other way round the ZR1 needs 100BHP + to beat the GTR, specialy around a track..

@masonizere My fiend has a GT-R and there is no room for error at all...if you are coming in hot into t a corner the computer takes over if your tail slides out the computer takes over, if you are breaking too hard the computer takes over...This is from the ride he took me on... He even admits his Supra was more fun to drive than his GT-R. The GT-R is all computerized. Your argument might work with some one who has never ridden in one of these but really its a video game on wheels
TheRebuttle 1 year ago
@masonizere and while all car are computerized to a point the GT-R really leaves no room for error is like having a driver with in the car...this is no bullshit if you have ever ridden in one you would know...
ps you have good taste in music...
