The 08' Z06 is able to run the 1/4 quicker than the 09 GTR. The ZR1 runs just under sub-light speeds...

Well you could try Ralliart in the UK. That's where Archiebabes ordered his FQ400 body kit. He hasn't ordered the exhaust or diffuser yet though but im pretty sure they can get it for you.

Would a US plate fit on the back of that car? It looks like they squeezed in the U.K. plate right above the exhaust..

I think i remember seeing someone in the US that had their lisence plate shaped like a euro plate. Had the proper numbers and state id tag and everything. Not sure if its 100% legal, but that would add an amazing touch to the car.

I've been thinking about doing an FQ body- exhaust and all. But I don't know how I'd get around the rear license plates-

GT-Rs lose 25% of their value the moment they come out the lot... well not really, more like a year later

Dealers have them going for 60k+

there's ad's up on auto trader here in canada for the exact same price as retail... and since the dealerships sell them at like 15-25% above suggested retail .. people think their getting a deal... there are like None avalible. if it's avalible i'ts because someone's financing fell through.

lol you wish..

i watched a zr1 get stomped on all night by everything including a zo6.. he couldn't get under 13's the quickest car of the night was a cuda 9.24sec the gunmetal gtr was doing low 10's all night i was running mid 13's 13.426 and i'm relitivly stock.. 1150m above sea level and track temps were cool.. calgary alberta canada + he was on rubber bands and we all know rubber bands don't = traction while going in a straight line. with the breaks those zr1's have theres no way you can put a decent sized 15-16" or so hoosier drag radial.

as for the exhaust, it's a piece of art work! but then again so is the fq400 soo classy yet racecarish at the same time.

Evo X FQ400

Everything on the FQ400 makes our US Evo X look and seem dull! Its just how it goes. For the money spent to try and replicate a FQ400 in anyway, if you do it right, you might as well go something aftermarket that is gonna perform just as well.

Thumbs up for FQ400 in all aspects! We all wish our Evo's were that way in the states.

with all that... no traction = no go... 2012 gtr's stomp them 0-60 but after that i'm really not too sure.
