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 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.
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
I agree, the R35 is too radical. The older cars make it look ugly, at least from
the front. Can't argue with the areo though, so it's not really a bad thing.
This car definitely has more than 280ps at the flywheel lol. MOTOR magazine
dynoed one, advertised at 206kw at flywheel, but it developed 217kw at the
WHEELS lolzzzz. :D
First of all, the R34 GTR internally known as BNR34 was released in 1999, NOT
1998 as stated. Second to that, the 0-60mph time is incorrect as is the weight
of the vehicle. It weighs 1540 KG. It just gets me wondering where people find
facts like this??
could you give us the source for that Nürburgring laptime?
I just edited that laptime to 8:14. Because of your e-mail.

Were just gonna stick with R34...
