Great article, somone beat me to it. Here is another different link to an already scanned page:

So the million dollar question guys: is the GTR 111mph limited? I guess not, apparently the us version is trap speed unlimited..
Does anyone knows if the GTR and Porsche are fitted with run flats? The vette is.

trap speed for the gtr is disappointing. otherwise insane car

 

i just finished reading that article before i came back to evom...i would def get a gt-r in a few years when the price gouging has come down...

 

I'll take them all...

 

In Summary, it out brakes, out handles, and out prices anything even close. I knew that this car would be good, but dang. 5sec on lap time. That's crazy.

 

Thanks for posting, Very nice cars.

 

Perhaps you haven't read the whole article, it doesn't out brake the Z06. Also,you don't mention the acceleration figures. Last but not least, try to get a GTR for MSRP. I agree with you on the handling though..

Z06 braking 60-0 111ft
Z06 braking 80-0 189ft
GTR braking 60-0 108ft
GTR braking 80-0 191ft

That's only in Japan. All cars there are limited to 112mph top speed.

 

My god, the GTR does Button Willow 5 sec faster then the Z06 and the Porsche Twin Turbo.

 

I thought the GT-R was supposed to have 6 piston calipers up front?

 

umm a 1:56 at that track is freaking insane for a box stock car. For refference the NASA TTU record is a 1:55.51 and the TTR record is a 1:54.19. We are talking about pretty much full blown race cars here, zo6 vettes with massive sticky rubber, breaks, etc.

 

the GTR and Porsche have surprisingly short gearing

 

Well, Steve Millen was driving, but yeah, still incredible times! I'm honestly surprised at how much faster it was than the Z06; I figured it WOULD be faster, but just not by THAT MUCH. On a track with more straights, I can see the Z06 making up some of the ground.

It'll be interesting to see what the lighter, more powerful V-spec GTR will do.
