These are great cars and the fact the dealerships are only allowed to sell 10 a year makes them all the more exclusive.I saw a few of these at my local Nissan dealership the other day while looking at Micras as a work car.

Now all it needs is a dedicated chassis, awd, rear mounted dual clutch gearbox, better brakes, active dampers, active chassis control, aluminium jig welded chassis with aluminium doors, bonnet, boot and lap the ring in 7:29sec

I do not think that just the 265mm rubber would help no matter how sticky they were!
F6 a great car for the price, great engine too but way out of its league here as an all round package!

Nothing wrong with taxi racing – except when you throw a real car amongst ‘em.

F6 typhoon with just a tune makes over 680Nm of torque and over 370kW with stock engine and inter cooler. It will beat this crap, but only with 265mm rubber on 19ths in the rear and three 100kg sand bags.

GT-R is just another car – plasma coatings is nothing new, as I said it has been used on many models of cars and motorbikes over the last 10+ years, no magic about it. MY10 and MY11 have new sequence for launching from the line – and they do not void warranties so just stop spilling junk on these pages and learn a thing or two about the car TomJ.

Well said Shak, its just that the Porsche boys cannot give credit where it is due!
TomJ, I know of a certain Porsche owner that drives on street and track days with replacement regular brakes because of the cost of wearing out the carbon ceramic brakes will buy him a brand new daily car!
Do you have any proof that the Nissans brakes cannot hold their weight against the carbon ceramics? The Gtr brakes are pretty serious gear as well!

That extra $150k saving on the Gtr can buy you all the extra warranty and performance work to blitz the MY11 Porsche too, couldn’t it?
Ps: Where does “Porsche encourage people to use launch control”? The Gtr has had its launch control recalibrated with no more issues! The old system did not cater for idiot rich boys with no idea about mechanical sympathy!
2.9secs is a bit exaggerated isn’t it? I thought it was around 3.3sec?
