not really gtr is the is a type of skyline from the skyline range it's like saying mustang gt and mustang cobra thier mustangs but different in the mustang class.
yes she is beautiful and she is in the us oh yea im saving up to get that ive saw 3 in houston tx where i am im gettin one even if it takes a lil min to get the cash
what they're trying to saying is that if you don't have the money, they don't want your visit or just go check out their 20,000 dollar car's that they have in their lot.
umm... in order to get American Dollar into Hong Kong Dollar... i usually times it by 8... that makes life easier... cuz now if im not wrong... it suppose to be 7.8 or something like that.. by timesing it by 8 makes it easier..
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
its just another crappy janenese car trying to catch up to the mean track rep of the gt ford and z06 and the porsches and ferrairs wont happen trust me see where its at in 2 years zero major wins and a bunch of dummies stuck making 1100 a month payments on a car thats going down down down in value and as it gets older slower slower slower same old jap lies will it stuill run 11 s with 145,000 miles like a z06 will ?no way baby
yeah the R34 looks the best out of all the skylines. too bad it didn't come to america, though we did get the G35 which was supposed to be the skyline so they're probably just trying to follow the G35 body style for now
i retract that statement.. i didnt mean stupid. I just dont think that it can live up to the skyline name! the skyline has super high standards and expectations from everyone. but no manual? wtf is that? it does sound pretty badass though : )
thats becasue the cars so powerful and fast its faster to use automatic.. or auto triptonic.. when the last time u saw a ferrari with a manual gear box?
Yet they are slower than their Dsg counterparts.The tranny is a small part of the whole, and whether you like it or not the DSG tranny is the best performance style tranny available.
I didnt say they where faster. Just nicer to drive. Go read some tests on the gearbox in this and most others. Nice when driving flat out crappy for cruising around. And no proper manual sequential still with a clutch (like F1 cars use) is the best not Auto turned manual like most road cars.
sure makes it easy for people not to respond when you can't even speak english. Try to get a ferrari off the line with a stick and not have it jump. A DSG has the advantages of both an auto and a stick. Look I love standards, but you can't deny progress. A newbie could drive a DSG around town and love it, say that with a standard 450hp car. DSG is better for both the track and everyday driving whether you agree or not.
Who the fuck are you?? Like i already said go read some tests done by ppl who drive these cars for a living and actually know what there talking about. If youtube is the limit of your knowledge even watch some clips of top gear driving shitty sequential they constantly say they need a manual. Again if its got no clutch its shit. They dont let you rev as high as you want and they wont let you change down when you want. When F1 goes to shitty Auto sequentials then ille agree.
Using that kind of logic, some people prefer paddling over sailing, and some people prefer sailing over riding in a jet boat. So at the end of the day, all it really comes down to is what gets you off, and if you get off on paddling, that's fine, but it doesnt mean sailing or jetboating is shit.
The new cts seq. lets you bounce off the rev. line asshole. And as far as the tests go, it has always been faster than manual, every test(MT, C&D,R&T) have made this clear. You've never driven a DSG so how the fuck would you know how it handles. Personally if it's good enough for Ferrari it's good enough for me. Though I'm sure you know what your talking about LOL. Jackass
youre a Dummy chris. my auto dsm lets me kick down whenever i want and does so a lot faster than a manual. i can also hold revs as high as i want before it shifts. you need to do some research your DAMN self Jr. !
HAHA your auto DSM? Are you fucking kidding me? Either you have no idea how to drive manual or your just a small child talking shit you have no idea about. Go out rev your car to 8000rpm in second and try changing down a gear. Not gonna happen. I realise thats not normally what you would want to do but shows your just talking crap.
Cant keep up with the big dogs? WTF...What big dogs? Ferrari? Its a 480HP AWD twin turbo! Its a $70,000 car that can outperform $160,000 cars....Check the performance stats before you even try to compare this car to another.
so wat? add a twin-turbo to a ferrari, and it will beat da gtr... god jus cuz u can tune any gtr, it means its better than a high priced car, no, u can also tune a ferrari or a lambo, da bugatti veyron has 4 turbos! i kno diff price range so wat, my point is u can tune jus about any car
Actually, this thing was designed to be practically un-tunable. Will have to wait and see how that turns out but it's not gonna be easy. Nissan have seen to that.
Not that it matters much, in standard tune this car looks to be a propper rapist.
What $160K cars does it outperform? Performance stats are Nissan's claims. Who else has tested it? Even Mizuno said they ran it at N'Ring on cut slicks. It's a good car but nothing special.
reno I told you. you are just going around the GT-R video clips trying to do what??/ Just ignore this guy. this guy is pathetic. Stop wondering around the gtr clipsd cause u r not objective. you are just having complex with the japanese cars. get over it.
I wish people would pay more attention to what they say! A G35 is NOT a skyline. They used a G35 as a starting point for looks, based it off the same "frame", and in the end..EVERYTHING was moddified. Skyline g35?? Wow. Are you 16? THE END.
actually the g35 is the japanese market's base skyline. the gtr however is based on a slightly different platform but the similarities to the 350z and g35 are evident.
ugly front nice rear. its hard to believe a g35 is a skyline.. that thing is a disgrace its so slow. my s2k can beat the skyline g35 anyday, the new gtr is a whole new differnt story.
Honestly...I'd say only as import(not including taxes, shipping etc.) US will get the updated 2008 "sedan" as its called - unfortunately - without the rear spoiler and beefy twin-turbo glued onto the inline 6. Wonder if it'll lag in low range. Mind, you, if it's torquey enough you'll need a GT3RS to keep in sync with this.
Yes, it's on Nissan USA's website, and there's an article in this month's Motor Trend magazine too. The GT-R will be released in North America in mid-2008 as a 2009 model. Price will be comparable to the Corvette Z06.
That's tough to answer. Some people will buy the Z06 just because they like Chevy better than Nissan, and vice-versa. The Z06 is also a higher-production car - they're only planning to sell 1500 GT-Rs per year in the US and the waitlist is already long. Performance-wise the GT-R appears to be better, but we'll have to see what production versions do. A higher-performance replacement for the Z06 is due in a year or two as well.
If you'll re-read my post, you'll see that I wrote "...the GT-R APPEARS to be better, but we'll have to see what production versions do." But one of Nissan's pre-production mules lapped the Nurburgring in 7:38 in partial wet conditions and that's documented, not just Nissan's claim. A Z06 managed 7:42 in dry conditions. But you're right, we won't know which car is actually faster until production GT-Rs are released for testing.
I said it was a great car. I've researched it from many sites and listed what I've found. That's not bashing it. When someone states, "it's the fastest production car ever", I tell them they are full of it. Quote me where I've bashed the car. It's also an ugly car. That's not bashing. It's a great performance car.
ok mate fair enough..but i think it's a great looking car..and i know that the "Godzilla"..will live up to it's hype..every GTR before it has and it's not gonna change..The GTR is banned from racing here in the OZ in the "V8 Supercar Series"..
In the early 90's it use to lap the competition (R32) model..which is how it got it's nicname."Godzilla"..which is why im a big fan of the GTR..
Good point. I welcome civilized debate on these cars. This car is surprizing. Didn't think it would do this well. When the states gets it, it will have to go thru emissions. Don't know how much that will affect it.
ohhh nooo i was thinking its gonna be something huge and nice. its a nicer version of Infinity G35 but with turbos. skyline went wrong. e92 m3 will eat this
I live in jpn with my RS4-07,thisGODZILLA is a beast really.they (nissan) want to beat any ferrari,lambo,R8 with UGLY GT-R at any road country...with cheapest you can get(only 7,8-8.4 price)!470hp then you ask nismo to make 580hp everyday life drive!
I disagree with the statement about Porsche being overrated. That cheap made Nissan as someone said comes from the same company whose previous GT-R's were banned from racing because they couldn't lose. Nissan will also be producing other versions of the GT-R, probably a V-Spec as well as an N1 version for racing. These will compete head-to-head with the GT2 and GT3 911.
I am sure it will take a standard 911, but I know for a fact it won't beat a new 911 turbo. Also who the hell would give $70,000 or more for a fancy Nissan 350z. For the kind of money that this car cost I would buy a used 01 or 02 911 turbo with low miles for around 60 grand and spend 900 bucks on a performance chip and bump my horse power up to 520hp and 0-60 time of 3.6 seconds and top speed to 201mph and smoke that crappy Nissan.
you retard...a fancy 350Z?? And you think your gunna smoke that thing with a POS chipped 911? A V-Spec GT-R runs 530 HP, before tuner modifications (widen exhaust, bigger turbos, intake) Porsche is way over rated, and before you call the GT-R a "crappy nissan" why don't you take a look at the history of the Skylines, and see how a real car is supposed to perform
You are calling a Porsche a POS, And you think a cheap made Nissan is any better. If the Porsche 911 turbo is so over rated then why is nissan trying to beat it in all it's testing videos. I have no problem with the old skylines,I mean this POS is not even a 6 speed. Why don't you take a look at the history of Porsche and the 911 and you tell me who has won more races and sets the standard for almost all other sports cars. Then you will see how real engineering performs.
If you want to talk about the better models just buy the Porsche GT2 with over 530hp and the Nissan will not even know what happened when the porsche go's by so fast. I know it sucks but those cars are just not in the same league.
no skylines arent crappy, there very good, in fact im not so sure theyre cheap either..
but porsche is porsche, and performance wise, it will give any car in the streets and on the race track a tough time.. i would really like to see a GT3, race a Skyline, even against a GT2.. And im not talking import tuners, just the best skyline nissan can give against the best 911 porsche can give..
I'll see your 911 and raise you one lil' s14. But seriously I think this is going to easily outhandle the porsche.Yes I've owned a 911, but I like my new ride better. maybe it's just the loudness, naw.
omfg!!!i hate all the new cars. they have to make them futuristic wtf!!! u cant add anyhtign to the dody it one thign the so shitty... shoudl of made an improved body fromtliek the 2002 model.....grrrr the new cars suck ass!!
we just see how it turns out on Oct 24 2007, thats when the front and back brawl comes out. its going to be one sick GTR uguly?....we just have to wait and see, to me I DONT THINK SO!
anybody in the u.s knows a company that can import a nissan skyline r34(1999-2003) v-spec model to virginia? every R.I i talk to is giving me, a ripp off price, so anybody read this message, hit me back, thanks.
yea true, they gave me those prices. i was about to cuzz their ass out on the phone one day, i asked one of the R.I's, what the hell ya'll been smokin? even Motorex didn't charge that much (15-20k), before it was shut down back in 2005-2006,
there's one video on here where a guy gets a pretty good zoom in shot of the dash and steering wheel. if you pause it at the right moment you can clearly see that the LCD screen has the same digital meters that the R34 had. I think the larger one on the left of the screen is for boost, and to the right you can kind of make out some smaller ones, probably for g-meter, oil temp, etc.

Yes, it's on Nissan USA's website, and there's an article in this month's Motor Trend magazine too. The GT-R will be released in North America in mid-2008 as a 2009 model. Price will be comparable to the Corvette Z06.

this or the Z06? which would most people buy?
SagaraSouske 4 years ago
That's tough to answer. Some people will buy the Z06 just because they like Chevy better than Nissan, and vice-versa. The Z06 is also a higher-production car - they're only planning to sell 1500 GT-Rs per year in the US and the waitlist is already long. Performance-wise the GT-R appears to be better, but we'll have to see what production versions do. A higher-performance replacement for the Z06 is due in a year or two as well.
Grunch73 4 years ago
There is no proof to show that the GT-R is a better performance car. Only Nissan's claims. Z06 is proven.

If you'll re-read my post, you'll see that I wrote "...the GT-R APPEARS to be better, but we'll have to see what production versions do." But one of Nissan's pre-production mules lapped the Nurburgring in 7:38 in partial wet conditions and that's documented, not just Nissan's claim. A Z06 managed 7:42 in dry conditions. But you're right, we won't know which car is actually faster until production GT-Rs are released for testing.

I've watched many clips of the GTR..and in every one you bash it...if you don't like it watch something else..

I said it was a great car. I've researched it from many sites and listed what I've found. That's not bashing it. When someone states, "it's the fastest production car ever", I tell them they are full of it. Quote me where I've bashed the car. It's also an ugly car. That's not bashing. It's a great performance car.
reno93535 4 years ago
ok mate fair enough..but i think it's a great looking car..and i know that the "Godzilla"..will live up to it's hype..every GTR before it has and it's not gonna change..The GTR is banned from racing here in the OZ in the "V8 Supercar Series"..
In the early 90's it use to lap the competition (R32) model..which is how it got it's nicname."Godzilla"..which is why im a big fan of the GTR..

Good point. I welcome civilized debate on these cars. This car is surprizing. Didn't think it would do this well. When the states gets it, it will have to go thru emissions. Don't know how much that will affect it.

ohhh nooo i was thinking its gonna be something huge and nice. its a nicer version of Infinity G35 but with turbos. skyline went wrong. e92 m3 will eat this

I live in jpn with my RS4-07,thisGODZILLA is a beast really.they (nissan) want to beat any ferrari,lambo,R8 with UGLY GT-R at any road country...with cheapest you can get(only 7,8-8.4 price)!470hp then you ask nismo to make 580hp everyday life drive!

I disagree with the statement about Porsche being overrated. That cheap made Nissan as someone said comes from the same company whose previous GT-R's were banned from racing because they couldn't lose. Nissan will also be producing other versions of the GT-R, probably a V-Spec as well as an N1 version for racing. These will compete head-to-head with the GT2 and GT3 911.

I am sure it will take a standard 911, but I know for a fact it won't beat a new 911 turbo. Also who the hell would give $70,000 or more for a fancy Nissan 350z. For the kind of money that this car cost I would buy a used 01 or 02 911 turbo with low miles for around 60 grand and spend 900 bucks on a performance chip and bump my horse power up to 520hp and 0-60 time of 3.6 seconds and top speed to 201mph and smoke that crappy Nissan.
catlin123 4 years ago
you retard...a fancy 350Z?? And you think your gunna smoke that thing with a POS chipped 911? A V-Spec GT-R runs 530 HP, before tuner modifications (widen exhaust, bigger turbos, intake) Porsche is way over rated, and before you call the GT-R a "crappy nissan" why don't you take a look at the history of the Skylines, and see how a real car is supposed to perform
kamalmaharaj 4 years ago
You are calling a Porsche a POS, And you think a cheap made Nissan is any better. If the Porsche 911 turbo is so over rated then why is nissan trying to beat it in all it's testing videos. I have no problem with the old skylines,I mean this POS is not even a 6 speed. Why don't you take a look at the history of Porsche and the 911 and you tell me who has won more races and sets the standard for almost all other sports cars. Then you will see how real engineering performs.
catlin123 4 years ago
u mean to tell that Nissan has set more standards of car making than Porsche?
capitalflush 4 years ago
If you want to talk about the better models just buy the Porsche GT2 with over 530hp and the Nissan will not even know what happened when the porsche go's by so fast. I know it sucks but those cars are just not in the same league.
catlin123 4 years ago
no skylines arent crappy, there very good, in fact im not so sure theyre cheap either..
but porsche is porsche, and performance wise, it will give any car in the streets and on the race track a tough time.. i would really like to see a GT3, race a Skyline, even against a GT2.. And im not talking import tuners, just the best skyline nissan can give against the best 911 porsche can give..
capitalflush 4 years ago
I'll see your 911 and raise you one lil' s14. But seriously I think this is going to easily outhandle the porsche.Yes I've owned a 911, but I like my new ride better. maybe it's just the loudness, naw.

anybody in the u.s knows a company that can import a nissan skyline r34(1999-2003) v-spec model to virginia? every R.I i talk to is giving me, a ripp off price, so anybody read this message, hit me back, thanks.
bigkckrva 4 years ago
they are all rip off prices becouse it costs about 30 thousand just to get it here
vihor22 4 years ago
yea true, they gave me those prices. i was about to cuzz their ass out on the phone one day, i asked one of the R.I's, what the hell ya'll been smokin? even Motorex didn't charge that much (15-20k), before it was shut down back in 2005-2006,
bigkckrva 4 years ago
there's one video on here where a guy gets a pretty good zoom in shot of the dash and steering wheel. if you pause it at the right moment you can clearly see that the LCD screen has the same digital meters that the R34 had. I think the larger one on the left of the screen is for boost, and to the right you can kind of make out some smaller ones, probably for g-meter, oil temp, etc.

i wish he could record the inside of the car or so, i wanted to see the computer on board and the boost and all that.
