Good bye evo .. Hello GTR
Nice, Swizer uses our dyno to tune the GTR's he builds, they are impressive. I am the opposite of you on the thoughts though, the reason I haven't bought one is they are too luxurious for me. I'd have to gut it and lose about 1,000 pounds of it, make it RAW and then I'd have one!
I hope you enjoy it, they are nice for sure.

I don't want to come off like it is the best thing out there . I really enjoyed the evo , but i went past the point of where is wasn't fun to drive anymore. Injector problems , too big of cams , only one place to get E85 for me , clutch/trans eater . There isn't a true 9 sec street driven evo . I worked with alot of vendors on here and have a few horror stories. I was tired of getting ripped off. I also didnt feel like a tear down every six months to replace/inspect rod bearings. High Hp evo's do not last long "if" driven daily.
I came to a point to continued with the evo and get something else to drive or just trade in for something else. I decided to go with the GTR , i have always like the car and wanted to experience what all the hype was about . I really do enjoy it , it is much more luxurious . It still handles like a over-sized go kart . But it isn't for everyone , it is very expensive to maintain.
There is a big difference between a race car with a licence plate and a fast street car.
I would have really like to seen how far you could take something like the GTR and make it. You are always out to push the envelope .

Sick GTR They are growin on me more and more i see them. I havent drove or been in one but i would like to go for a ride and see what its like. There are plenty of 9 sec Evos out there that are driven on a daily basic. I was one of them last year on the Fp Black running consistent 9.7s
Enjoy man!

right at 60k i paid .. 23k miles . you can look around and find them in that range , just make sure it is in good condition .. brakes , fluid , trans ... pretty expensive stuff to replace ..
Nissan wants right at 7k for rotors and pads , just an idea ..

Would you lose yOur drivtrain warranty for not putting on oem brake rotors?
I wouldn't think so, but for 7k I think I'd make some pretty cool steel rotors and buy a few brake pads

well pads and rotor are a wear-able item .. So switching to something else wouldn't void anything . But say the transmission , if i have it flashed and i have a broke first gear from launching , no they wouldn't warranty it . Or say the intakes i have , if something got sucked it , it wouldn't be covered because it isn't OEM .

Likely the point of the car tho...that is, "not" to have to modify to the ends of the earth to get supercar performance at a reasonable price..
but I guess human nature is that if we "start" with 450 whp, we will "need" to get to 600 whp
