edmunds always gets the worst numbers, the 0-60 on the 2013 is 2.7 seconds and the quarter mile is 10.8 seconds, and i guarantee the g force could be at least 1.05
You want a big dumb & fun muscle car then get the Supercar of America (I'm Canadian btw), Go out and drive a Viper GTS or SRT-10 Coupe. Waaaaay more fun than the Corvette & Mustang. If I was gonna give ANYTHING to Ford it would be their Ford GT/GT40(44). Cause that thing is a blast to drive (and also be seen in). PS: That GTR rapes in the the corners. :D
99.9999999% of the time, the guy sitting behind the wheel of a vette is NOT a PRO driver and has regular tires. Which means the car will not see full potential of the car. this means 99.9999% of the time lots of cars will win, Mitsubishi evo's, BMWs, porsches or whatever. Paper numbers dont mean squat in the real world. Paper corvettes look greate, in the real world they are crap!!!!!!!!!
@youeatwhat Ever have to fix/maintain a LS Block? Ever try to do an oil change in a fucking porche? Ever see the look on the autozone guy's face after you tell him all that oil you bought will be used once in a god damned sports car with a v6?

corvette guys are funny. No matter how obvious it is that the GTR is superiour to the ZR1 they still try to deny it. Its so pathetic. Ontop of that they always try to bring up examples when a PRO driver on RACE Tires did a faster lap then XXXX car.
just face it y'all, the GTR isnt shit if it was RWD and had not launch control. around the track it couldnt keep up with the Z06 or the ZR1.. these cars were made from the LeMans 24 hrs race cars.. you know. the one that has been raping porsches, ferraris, aston martins for several yrs. they got more championship wins then the GTR, not to mention it has the history heritage to back it up. granted the seats suck, but.. the Vette is still better car on the track.
@lrecollet Correct the race models vettes are amazing the street models sucks balls. GTR the other way around. Now which one do you drive one the streets?
the vette.. buy a vette, you are buying a part of american automotive history. gtr may be faster in every aspects.. but the driver isnt driving it, the computers are and i wont void the warranty on a 20,000 dollar transmission. sorry. as good as the GTR is.. it aint ever gonna beat the vette in my opinion.
@nissanis1 and the truth is only for those who can handle it. and lies are for those who cant handle the truth. i want to see nissan put their GTR on the race track and see which is a better car. in order for the GTR to compete with all other cars, it would have to strip it down to about 3000 lbs. meaning, no AWD, no launch control, no back seat.. basically make it look like a porsche GT2. or less. straight line yes it can beat all other cars better and the same price..
@lrecollet search youtube for this video, "Nissan GT-R vs The World 2 - Best Motoring International" ..a non stripped, fully stock Nissan GT-R (full weight, AWD, on board computers) on a track racing some of the biggest names in the world. Holding it's own VERY well. And it's a fun video to watch. I can't find the first half of the video, but still a very good comparison video by any means because none of those cars are slow! Hope you enjoy. Vette is a nice car but I'd go with a GT-R.

@kageryu311 the head up display you´re proud of is a technology that has been used in old ass base model corvette C5s. the GTR did nothing new. it performs very well for its relatively high power to weight. but that´s only at low end acceleration. you can´t "magically" be faster. let´s take a look at the facts (to be continued):
@kageryu311 the GTR performs well for its power/weight only from a dig up to about 120mph because its transmission is a short geared dual clutch semi automatic shifting in a split second allowing it to accelerate fast combined w/ allwheeldrive. that´s how it compensates. bad power/weight = compensated by traction and short geared semi automatic. at top end however - it can´t compensate and gets crushed by any car with similar power/weight and aerodynamics (even if it´s a manual car).
@HEMIH3AD Individual tests have the car trapping 125mph. Also note that the ZL1 which makes 580hp traps less than this car at 117 and the CTS-V traps lower than this car at 119mph.
@kageryu311 well - those late gen muscle cars are just heavy boats without traction. I always think about those lightweight kit cars when seeing trap speeds below 125mph @ far over 500horses. a factory five LS7 [mid engine layout] (stock 505bhp@1100kg/2420lbs through a manual transmission) for instance runs 10.9s @ 135+mph - that´s one hell of a top end difference. also it pretty much offers anything a road car needs and that´s just one of a few samples.
@kageryu311 it´s a matter of personal taste as you can get the traction/acceleration/top speed/handling of a GT-R from a rwd/manual car even under street conditions as long as it´s at least mid engined. advanced street legal race cars like the GTM, Superlite Coupe, Miami GT LS1 etc. are fine examples. even the 345hp (midengined stock LS1) Miami GT´s power/weight is BY FAR lower [5.0lbs/hp due its astonishing curb weight of only 1760lbs] than a 545hp GTR´s power/weight [6.82lbs/hp]
i guess everybody was expecting the 2013 gtr to do 0 to 60 in 2.3 seconds and cross the quarter mile in 10 seconds at 130 mph. i see that the figures attained here are actually worse than the 2012's
@kageryu311 well there are several factors to be considered when doing actual tests. remember the gtr has 2 turbos. turbos work well with cool and less humid air. also, not all launches will be the same. i remember a video where there was the 2011 911 turbo s doing the quarter mile in 10.8 @ 128 mph and then other videos saying otherwise. plus its lateral acceleration is not that high but i guess that is because it weighs 1700 kg
@TheDreamer138 nissan accomplished that a while back ago. check out the gtr spec v from japan i believe it did it in 2.9 sec and that was like in 2010. GTRs in Japan, where they are originally made, are faster but as soon as they hit the US i guess they put this emission crap on it and slow it down
@TheDreamer138 its it IS under 3 seconds though...its 2.7 according to claims. I have one (2012 model). The car is rediculous. I am in canada, and getting to 180 kph (112mph) is insanely easy. And thats BEFORE tuning. you can tune the shit out of this car. For only 2K you can have this car giving you better mph, and adding 100hp. This care is just straight up BEASTTT. I once tried to kiss the steering wheel while driving cuz it was making me so happy. My dumb ass almost broke my teeth.
@TheDreamer138 I believe sub-3-second 0-60 times are achievable with the 2013 model but not with pump gas that's available here in the US. A 0-60 time of 2.7 seconds, and a 10.8 second 1/4 mile was clocked in using 100 RON octane gasoline (96 octane would be the US equivalent)
Just throw in some meth in that bitch and up the boost. You'll then have your sub-$100k, ~2.5second 0-60 GTR
@ivanorstar the 2013 has modification to the engine. new electronics and timing and changes to the intake and exhaust add 20 hp compared to the 2012 model year. little has changes apart from that. it also has better launch than before.
Yeah the GT-R puts down some great 'numbers' but it does lack a lot of the intangibles (and tangibles) that many supercars have and excel at..which is why it will always be an apples to oranges comparison. My ex co-worker has a Lotus Elise and a modded Trailblazer SS (tires, suspension and power adders) and the TBSS puts down better numbers and will lose the Elise on many unevenly-surfaced corners) but his TBSS will NEVER feel a bit like an Elise... regardless.
@2003SCT The Lotus Elise is stupid. it's a $50,000 Go-Kart with 0 comfort or amenities. The GT-R is the best production car in the world, hands down. It's the fastest production car under a million dollars and it has a back seat.
@MrMarco77 You obviously didn't understand my comparitive comment. LOL on your comment about the GT-R being the 'best' production car in the world though. Fastest production car under a million dollars? You need to read more. Even IF you mean "fastest" as 0-60 (which is actually the term "quickest") the 2011 Porsche 911 Turbo S ran 0-60 in 2.7 seconds and 10.8 at129 mph (Car and Driver test) which the mph alone SMOKES the GT-R. GT-R is impressive but many cars are better and yep some are faster.
The GT-R is faster than most things this side of a Bugatti Veyron, but it lacks a certain je ne sais quoi. It's perhaps the same reason that true geeks are never 'cool'.
Do you want to drive a car that does 0-60 in 3 seconds every day for a week then breaks down, or one that you try a 0-60 in once a week and on one occasion do it in about 3 seconds?
why didnt they equipt the new gt-r with a 5.6L v8, the one they used for the m56, and put these twin-turbos? it would make 633hp! thats not a guess. i used a calc
I should point out one thing...If I had someone to give me money to buy a supercar, I would buy a Ferrari 458 or Lambo Gallardo or McLaren MP4-12C .But if I am buying a car with my own money..things that you don't like to think about as a car enthusiast creep into your brain..Like reliability, usability, will it hold its value after couple of years ?, MPG, insurance, etc .When you factor all of this...you would buy the Nissan..because it does what a good car should do...It does everything..
@Tinesh0 mpg and insurance isnt good for the gtr actually, ive heard ppl are shocked how high the insurance is, probably b/c its mostly driven by young drivers that want it only for performance, unlike ferrari, who has ppl who drive it only b/c its a ferrari, and could care less about speed. But if you can afford the gtr you can afford the insurance, lol. Well said though.
amazing car. I still think even If i can afford one. I would rather put the money in my mitsubishi evo and make it 500+HP. just more raw fun in the evo i think. But definetly will always take the GTR over any domestic POS anyday. Vette or viper has absolutely nothing on the GTR.
ivdn992...hahahaha...how the hell do you know what i own ????....poor little rustang owner got his feelings hurt by a v6 nissan...awwww...great comeback...and for the record, how do you think i know so much about the GTR?????....now don't hurt yourself thinking take your time...hahahaha....
@nitsuj806 Bet yet AMS made the alpha 12 package which set the world record for the 1st 8 & 9 second car, And are already making new ugraded packages TO IMPROVE PERFORMANCE, AGAIN RITE?? thiers no such thing as "too areodynamic".
@nitsuj806 yess i know that, belive me i know almost everything thier is to know about this car. I clearly stated in my comment "MAKE IT EVEN MORE AERO-DYNAMIC". Read up on it
ok so one thing i dont get.. although they improve the preformance of this car every year, they should at least improve the exterior design and make it even more aero-dynamic, its also part of the preformance.. bc its not the best looking.. but it grew on me.

Doesn't matter how you extract it fools, if you don't extract it you cant use hence useless but on paper! Doesn't matter who's driving Godzilla rules!
So a car built to embarrass Ferrari and Porsche and it costs nearly $100,000? I love a good factory tuner as much as the next guy but, at that price, all you're really going to embarrass is yourself, no matter how quick a race car driver can get it to sixty.
@wokeupthismorning100 LOL, No bye bye. The Zr1 did 7:19.6 in Nurburgring while this is estimated at the best of 7:21..... Zr1 is a far better track car than the GT-R can manage to be.
@TheHm3 Why do people like you insist on comparing track numbers done by professional drivers. Put your average driver in either car and the GT-R will be quicker and faster in any given situation. I have a lot of respect for the zr1, but the gt-r is the easier car to extract 100% of its performance from.
@nitsuj806 Because the Zr1 is a race car. Not like the GTR made to be driven by amateurs. Say, put a 13 year old in the driver seat of a F1 car, then put him in a GT-R. Then make him run a lap with both on any track, who do you think will win? So that means a F1 car capable of pulling 5 Gs that a single steering is worth over $50,000 is not as good of a track car as the GTR?
@TheHm3 F1 car and GT-R arent apples to apples comparison. I have no idea what you are trying to say. It takes a lot of skill to pilot a 640hp RWD car with confidence around a track. The GT-R has a higher threshold for error, almost taking any of it induced by the driver out of the equation. Hand over either car (GTR or ZR1) to the average buyer, and I can guarantee the GT-R will be the quicker car in any given situation. Race car or not, a car is only as good as it's driver.
@TheHm3 If you want a serious discussion, I can have one. I never said the GT-R is the greatest car ever. Do you ever read what you write? Swearing and calling people names is not going to get anyone to take you seriously.
@nitsuj806 Ah yes but according to some fanboys that is what makes the zr1 and z06 better...as if a less stable and harder to drive car is a good thing. It amuses me what they will tell themselves sometimes. Losing the ability to think rationally blinded by their fanboyism.
@xflynskywlkr23 There is no doubt in my mind that these cars are a blast to drive, but fun cars don't always set the best times and the best times aren't always achieved by fun cars.
@azn069 Hey thanks buddy. Sometimes it doesn't hurt to tell the truth. Lots of car guys are pretty ignorant, including some of the GT-R fanboys. For what it's worth, I have a BS in physics.
@nitsuj806 I agree, the GT-R takes less skill and can be driven faster Vs a RWD high HP car for the same driver depending on their skill. The ZR1 is potent but needs skill and needs balance. The GT-R for that reason is faster on the road. It takes less input and therefore aggressive changes are dealt with by the AWD and traction control system. By the way an AMS Alpha 12 might be as fast or even faster than an F1 in a straight line race. 8.9 quarter mile at 170 on street tires......
@TheHm3 and the ZR-1 "needs" 640hp to get 7:19 and the GTR has UNDER 600hp and the #'s between the 2? is pretty close! despite having 4 seats and weighing nearly 4000lbs. Im sure a 650HP GTR can EASILY GO UNDER 7:20..., get my point?
@bigkckrva 650 hp in a vette is far different than 650hp in a gtr. It will put most of its power to the ground thanks the dual clutch and the traction from AWD. 650 in a vette means about 570-580 WHP where as the to the gtr 650 means 630-640 AWHP. Add the quick shift from the dual clutch and there you have it. Keep in mind that it takes an average 10 to 20hp (all other factors aside) to haul 100 extra lbs. The gtr 640awhp + AWD + dual clutch? you do the math.
@bigkckrva Dumbass. You were born retarded. 650 horses in GT-R isn't the same as 650 in the Zr1. And if the GT-R wanted to go with less weight, it would have to ditch the AWD. Destroying what the Skyline is. And adding 650 horses in current GT-R would put the weight over the top, still not able to do as well as a Corvette in a track. And if they wanted to lower weight in that situation, they'd need lighter material which would drivet he cost up. The Zr1 is a far better track car......
@bigkckrva 2009 viper ACR did it in 7:12.. just sayin' and the ZR1 is a much better track can and a whole lot more fun to drive...not to mention it takes real skill to drive the Vette.
@mattbmx1234 PLEASE CHECK YOUR RING TIMES ON THE ACR AGAIN! NO VIPER has ever gotten a 7:12 @ the Ring! Whats up with these GAY GM FAG BAG TEA BAG ASSES always mentioning a "it takes a real skills to drive a Vette"? What kind of driving skills do u got? If i want a "REAL DRIVERS" car? I'll get me a MINES Skyline R34 GTR OVER a ZR-1! and its BETTER than the ZR-1 on the track, enuff said!
@bigkckrva Google the viper time and you will see...and yes it did intact get that time. Calling someone gay for proving you wrong just shows that you are insecure about your sexuality and spread your shit on others. The 2012 ZR1 is a world killer in the automotive world.. to each their own but I had to let the truth be known that the ZR1 beat it and so did the Viper.
@platinumman04 actually the 2010 model is also a model for people to use launch control without braking the transmission when the car was reprogrammed by nissan to launch at 3000 rpm instead of 4500 rpm
Nissan has snapped. Its not even 2012 yet and they're so anxious to make it better they have released the 2013. I cant wait until I graduate w/ a career to grab one of these. Ill be satisfied with just a used 09. Glad the badge has lived up to all the fame and attention over the years.
@Rtree115 You sure about getting a used 09? That's back when they used to void your warranty if you tried to launch your car. The newer models (I believe 2012, which came out in march 2011 and above) are when they started beefing up the transmission and the rest of the car for true launch control.
i wonder why nismo is holding back on the hp of this car, that engine could make so much more power with very little effort they gotta take all the money u spend from the 11 speaker bose system and put that shit into the engine and shut the competition down
@xAngeloxNarcisex F/P Nismo has no relation with the development of the GT-R. Only for racing or their own product development. The GT-R is heavy to start off with...
@xAngeloxNarcisex I dont see a nismo road car version of the R35.... The GT-R has its OWN special team of highly trained engineers and they do the developing. Nismo has only done race cars thus far. They wouldnt even let any aftermarket tuners bring their R35s to the nismo festival lol.
No way those numbers are correct. Those numbers are exactly the same for 2012 GTR. Insideline fucked up. 2013 GTR was giving more power to better the previous models 0 to 60 and 1/4 mile numbers.
@KoukiMS6 i dont think they concentrated on performance but handling they say that it will beat its nurburgring lap time by 10 seconds will have to see nissan always surprises people
edmunds always gets the worst numbers, the 0-60 on the 2013 is 2.7 seconds and the quarter mile is 10.8 seconds, and i guarantee the g force could be at least 1.05

@HEMIH3AD Individual tests have the car trapping 125mph. Also note that the ZL1 which makes 580hp traps less than this car at 117 and the CTS-V traps lower than this car at 119mph.
kageryu311 2 weeks ago
@kageryu311 well - those late gen muscle cars are just heavy boats without traction. I always think about those lightweight kit cars when seeing trap speeds below 125mph @ far over 500horses. a factory five LS7 [mid engine layout] (stock 505bhp@1100kg/2420lbs through a manual transmission) for instance runs 10.9s @ 135+mph - that´s one hell of a top end difference. also it pretty much offers anything a road car needs and that´s just one of a few samples.
HEMIH3AD 2 weeks ago
@HEMIH3AD That's just power to weight. There are a lot of things you sacrifice to go that fast.
kageryu311 2 weeks ago
@kageryu311 it´s a matter of personal taste as you can get the traction/acceleration/top speed/handling of a GT-R from a rwd/manual car even under street conditions as long as it´s at least mid engined. advanced street legal race cars like the GTM, Superlite Coupe, Miami GT LS1 etc. are fine examples. even the 345hp (midengined stock LS1) Miami GT´s power/weight is BY FAR lower [5.0lbs/hp due its astonishing curb weight of only 1760lbs] than a 545hp GTR´s power/weight [6.82lbs/hp]

turboman1505 3 weeks ago
@turboman1505 Not exactly. There are private test videos on here that have the GT-R doing 10.9 @ 125mph which is about right for its power.
kageryu311 3 weeks ago
@kageryu311 well there are several factors to be considered when doing actual tests. remember the gtr has 2 turbos. turbos work well with cool and less humid air. also, not all launches will be the same. i remember a video where there was the 2011 911 turbo s doing the quarter mile in 10.8 @ 128 mph and then other videos saying otherwise. plus its lateral acceleration is not that high but i guess that is because it weighs 1700 kg

Yeah the GT-R puts down some great 'numbers' but it does lack a lot of the intangibles (and tangibles) that many supercars have and excel at..which is why it will always be an apples to oranges comparison. My ex co-worker has a Lotus Elise and a modded Trailblazer SS (tires, suspension and power adders) and the TBSS puts down better numbers and will lose the Elise on many unevenly-surfaced corners) but his TBSS will NEVER feel a bit like an Elise... regardless.

Fastest production car under a million dollars? You need to read more. Even IF you mean "fastest" as 0-60 (which is actually the term "quickest") the 2011 Porsche 911 Turbo S ran 0-60 in 2.7 seconds and 10.8 at129 mph (Car and Driver test) which the mph alone SMOKES the GT-R.

TheHm3 1 month ago
@TheHm3 Why do people like you insist on comparing track numbers done by professional drivers. Put your average driver in either car and the GT-R will be quicker and faster in any given situation. I have a lot of respect for the zr1, but the gt-r is the easier car to extract 100% of its performance from.
nitsuj806 1 month ago in playlist Uploaded videos 37
@nitsuj806 Because the Zr1 is a race car. Not like the GTR made to be driven by amateurs. Say, put a 13 year old in the driver seat of a F1 car, then put him in a GT-R. Then make him run a lap with both on any track, who do you think will win? So that means a F1 car capable of pulling 5 Gs that a single steering is worth over $50,000 is not as good of a track car as the GTR?
TheHm3 1 month ago
@TheHm3 F1 car and GT-R arent apples to apples comparison. I have no idea what you are trying to say. It takes a lot of skill to pilot a 640hp RWD car with confidence around a track. The GT-R has a higher threshold for error, almost taking any of it induced by the driver out of the equation. Hand over either car (GTR or ZR1) to the average buyer, and I can guarantee the GT-R will be the quicker car in any given situation. Race car or not, a car is only as good as it's driver.

@nitsuj806 I agree, the GT-R takes less skill and can be driven faster Vs a RWD high HP car for the same driver depending on their skill. The ZR1 is potent but needs skill and needs balance. The GT-R for that reason is faster on the road. It takes less input and therefore aggressive changes are dealt with by the AWD and traction control system. By the way an AMS Alpha 12 might be as fast or even faster than an F1 in a straight line race. 8.9 quarter mile at 170 on street tires......

bigkckrva 1 month ago
@bigkckrva 650 hp in a vette is far different than 650hp in a gtr. It will put most of its power to the ground thanks the dual clutch and the traction from AWD. 650 in a vette means about 570-580 WHP where as the to the gtr 650 means 630-640 AWHP. Add the quick shift from the dual clutch and there you have it. Keep in mind that it takes an average 10 to 20hp (all other factors aside) to haul 100 extra lbs. The gtr 640awhp + AWD + dual clutch? you do the math.
greenfaction4 1 month ago
@bigkckrva Dumbass. You were born retarded. 650 horses in GT-R isn't the same as 650 in the Zr1. And if the GT-R wanted to go with less weight, it would have to ditch the AWD. Destroying what the Skyline is. And adding 650 horses in current GT-R would put the weight over the top, still not able to do as well as a Corvette in a track. And if they wanted to lower weight in that situation, they'd need lighter material which would drivet he cost up. The Zr1 is a far better track car......
