to make it complete, the Nürburgring 8:14 time was driven by a Skyline R34 GT-R
Group N RACE CAR with 1470kg lighter as the stock GT-R driven by Armin Hahne a
Ringexpert..
Time is from a best motoring video!

The R34 can go faster than 8:14, I believe. The R33 had done an 8:01 in the
hands of Gan San.
The best motoring times are worthless because they are all incomplet laps. No
production JDM is able to lap the Ring in under 8:00min. Not if stock models are
driven by car testers from all around the world. BBC topgear was only able to
drive 8:30min times with the Skylines... no surprise..280hp and 1600kg can´t do
magic! Only if heavly modded ...but than every car gets quick.

"The best motoring times are worthless because they are all incomplet laps"
So you mean that the lap timer is stopped before the car gets to the finish
line? I find this hard to believe having watched many Best Motoring video
footage featuring time attacks on various tracks.
As for your claim that no JDM gets under 8 minutes at the Ring. How about the
Honda NSX-R, driven by Motoharu Kurosawa (from Best MOTORing 08/2002), which got
7 minutes 56 seconds?
To be honest i also wonder why it means BM dont test nordschleife completly? i
think they do. but i might be wrong just proof it.
I have tons of BM dvd's from Japan. And so far they test pretty fair.
i think so too but as i know the mines bnr34 never did a faster lap then
0:57.840 so 0:57.0xx is a time i never saw on tsukuba made with Mine's BNR34.

Someone posted a laptime of this car @Fiorano. I believe this car never run
there and there is also no way to be faster than Enzo especially in this track
:X Somoene delete it
Officially it has 280 PS, unofficially it has more, about 320-340 PS. A German
car magazin (maybe Auto Motor und Sport) wrote, that GT-R R34 has 332 PS.
Wikipedia also writes, that it has 332 PS. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nissan_Skyline
